No toolbox is complete without these Amazing German Built adjustable pliers - Get yours here www.amazon.com/shop/wranglerstar (#ad this link will direct you to my amazon store)
Wranglerstar love your videos I just wanted to let you know you want to be careful using the Shamrock as it is one of the symbols for the Aryan Brotherhood just thought I would let you know
Not sure if you'll see this being an older video but I recommend getting a Dango Designs Gripper Mount for your helmet. It gives you a nice point of view and doesn't show the ground when you stand up. It will see what your head see's. You put it on the chin of your helmet and it's basically a big clamp so you can take it off and put it on your son's helmets to get a point of view of their riding too. I and my father use them and work wonderfully and had no problems with them. If you would like to see a video of one in action, there are a few videos on my channel (not trying to advertise). Also, just like to say I have just recently discovered your channel and love it.
Love your friends new bike, I have the same 250 but a 2002. I prefer your friends plastics colour. The white is nice. It's one on the bets bikes I've owned. I have the 280 big bore kit in mine and it night and day. Amazing power for the weight, very manoeuvre able . Very quick in trails. Xr 400 is a big power upgrade yet the weight makes it much harder to handle. I have to suggest a few mods for the xr. Aftermarket air filter. Remove snorkel from air box. Line with pantie hose. Take off header and grind down welds to have better flow. A slip on. Accommodate mods with adjusting height on needle or mild re jet. Will open this beast up like night and day. Very very very reliable bike.
You might want to throw in a short-ish tow strap/rope into your bag. You can then use one of the other bikes to pull yourself out of a situation like that. A little easier than having to heave it up the way you had to anyway. Plus, if you're stuck, you can have one guy tow another in a desperate situation (depending on the terrain).
I would love to see more videos like this and any other dirt bike videos. I recently purchased my own dirt bike so my son and I can go riding together. You have been a great inspiration
No concussion or broken bones Brian, not bad overall. I like visegrips, they're adjustable and they lock tight. Glad you had a good time. Thanks for sharing. Fellowship is good for the soul.
There are ALWAYS going to be naysayers. Just keep putting up content and the true fans will like the vids. I’m a big fan and I’m currently deployed so the daily updates really mean the world to me right now! Thank you so much!!!
These are great videos, I would just love to go trial riding with my daughter but unfortunately my health doesn’t permit me to so watching you guys is a bitter sweet pleasure. You are very lucky.
That's me as well. The best I can do is follow in my 4x4. Which is fun as well since you can go places you otherwise couldn't. Or you can get to the remote trail heads and walk them perhaps. Appreciate your health while you have it but try to adapt to it and still have fun and appreciate the nature you can get to. Cheers.
Not at all a waist of 7 minutes. I personally wan't to get into off road motorcycling. I like watching you and your family and friends dirt biking. I got ideas on what kind and brands of protective gear to buy our children and wife and I. Types of motorcycles too was interesting. I don't actually want a hugely powerful engine as a beginner. Just adequate reliable power and sound structure and drive train. Thank you and your sponsors as well. Very much enjoyable.
I used to ride with one of my uncles, two of his sons and my brother. Great times. Uncle Don always reminded us to honk our horn when we get ready to crash so everybody could watch. You need to get horns on those rigs, Cody. Ha, ha, ha. I miss those times. Good clean fun!!
Hey Wranglerstar, I hate being "Mr. Saftey" but picking up the bike the way you did can be dangerous. I understand in that circumstance that you might have been able to pick up the bike the "proper" way. If you look up "proper way to pick up a motorcycle" you will see how to pick up a bike with little to no struggle. I have been on motorcycles and dirt bikes most of my life and have used that way a handful of times and it really is a lot easier way. Sorry to be picky but I do not want you to get hurt. As always, amazing video and look forward to seeing more dirt bike videos now that the weather is nice.
Dude that was the most exciting live stream I have ever watched. And just when one starts to think that Mr. Wranglerstar has too much stuff then you see how useful it all is.
Just a quick reference on metrics there Cody, 25mm is an inch...more or less. I have found it to be a help when you are trying to figure out how long some things are that are given in a metric measure. I'm on your side when it comes to the metric system. I don't have no use for it.
I can’t tell you how much I LOVE!!!!! Knipex pliers. The plier wrench is great but if you don’t have the cobras you need to get a pair you will not be disappointed. I was skeptical to spend so much on pliers but as a plumber I use them daily and have never been let down
I am happy that no one was hurt in the crash! He was fortunate that he landed in the limps of the limps of the tree and he didn’t fly over his bike into the rocks in the stream! I glad you all had a great time and a wonderful ride in the glorious area! Yes you are blessed to live where you are in nature! I love God’s creation! Thank you for sharing this with us Cody! Hugs 🤗 to sweetloaf! 👍👍👍👍🙏
Need some taller risers for those bars, Cody. They'll help you stand up a little straighter and make the bar/grip angle more comfortable for your wrists
Hey Wranglerstar family, if you ever go through colorado, bring the bikes!!!! Nearly endless beautiful mountain trail riding around Ouray, Silverton, Ironton, Telluride area! Youve just gotta do it before you kick the big bucket!
I don't understand how he could have possibly gone off that bridge!! Never seen anything so ---. Glad he's O.K. but maybe he needs more practice before hitting the trails.
No channel is lean on suggestions when people is the audience so here is mine. I love the content, always a favorite in my playlist, even this one was enjoyable - mostly. It's just that when you're riding we're only viewing your handlebars and gauges, not where you're going (I think this happened another time also). I don't know for sure but I think I am not alone. But then doesn't everyone think their opinion is shared by majority ;-)
Try Trials bikes, so much more fun (and safe) for this kind of riding. You will learn how to clear these sections without putting a foot down, let alone, walking the bike thru. (A rope is standard eqt when you get that far from base.)
Pine country, looks like my state, part from the lack of snow, there is still snow on our mountains. Can't wait till it's gone so I can do some trailing. I've been looking forward to a good ruck.
Man that was a waste of seven minutes of my life there was no loctite on the screen LOL just messing around great video god bless you and your family and friends
0:34 next time Jack will go a little farther in the woods to relieve himself! He should know by now that whatever you do when you're with Cody the whole world just might see! 😂
LOCTITE TO THE RESCUE! I'm glad Brian is okay. And by the way, Cody: You will learn the advantages of the metric system if you have to run 3 kilometers instead of 3 miles. ;)
Now that's kinda scary , crashes are , glad no one was hurt .. I've rode trails for years myself and have been down a few times .. On tools , for myself i learned early on to carry a tool pack so i always did , there were times it paid off for me... good video on your adventure ...
Teach jack to be a stand up rider. I wish I would have started that earlier. Also, for switch backs learn early to stand on the right handers and use the clutch as the rear brake. It's very hard for me to do. Its hard to balance around them. Something to work on if you tackle them frequently. You want to dab, but to do so you have to take your foot off the rear brake to do so.
@Wanglerstar what Engines do you have or what type, (example: Type 1, Type 2, 3, 4, and 5) for firefighting. what tools do you carry and what’s your favorite tool / why?
You haven't been riding dirt bikes long if you haven't had to break out an all/16ths wrench and help a buddy out of a ditch. Looks like a beautiful spot to ride!
What happened to the old XR (I think you said his name is Jeremy), a guys bike you worked on that was titled basically saying there's no hope? Lol, sorry I'm vague. It was when you guys put on Jack's hand guards on. I believe you said he's a firefighter? I'm chronically ill, and am very sick most days. But on the best of best days, I try and ride Supermoto / trails! I love your channel, I'm so thankful I get to watch and learn a lot about everything. I wish I could ride with you guys! He safe 😊
I enjoyed seeing that. I almost forgot that awkwardly manhandling bikes out of sticky situations and impromptu repairs are a big part of the dirt bike experience.
I really enjoyed watching you riding down the trail. Any chance we can get more footage like that? Maybe even a chest cam that doesn't look so far down. Thanks for the great content!
I go 4 wheeling with my brother he has a side by side big lift big bloggers nice winch and we get the most enjoyment pulling people out of rough spots it’s all part of the hobby
What do you mean a waste of my time?! That was great! I've been snowmobiling for a long time and your crew will remember that for the rest of their lives. Those "situations" are memory makers.
Just for feedback, I'm not a fan of the camera angle when riding. All you really see is your front fender. You covered the difficulty of getting it setup properly in a previous video but if you could point it a little higher, that'd be great (office space reference)
I mostly solo ride so something like that would just ruin my day, lol. I actually got stuck one time and I had to lay the bike down and move the rear tire about an inch, then switch to the front and move it about an inch, then back to the rear, etc. etc. etc. It took me like half an hour to get my bike back on the trail.
Those Honda XR's are amazingly tough bikes..amazing all around really..in my opinion you can't beat a Honda four stroke bike..dependability is beyond belief with them..
Also I didn't think the video was horrible at all..it looked like a blast to me..I wish I had a group to ride with like you do..it's was just me out there all by my lonesome but I don't mind..

Thanks for sharing the link to the pliers. I was going to ask.
Jack needs to stand up more it beats you up less
Always carry a little roll of wire with you to tie up the muffler or anything that could get hot..

Oh my! I'm subscribed to a biker gang channel. lol
The Shamrock biker gang is THE most feared in all the land
5:15
I thought I was subscribed to the Flintstones :)
The Shamrocks are also a biker club of law enforcement personnel.
They're also a minty green shake available at McDonalds during certain times of the year, yummy.
When Cody said we need to loctite that, I got happier than I should have.

rjtumble don’t know if he’s got it yet but he was saying he would get one in his video he done on his dirt bike kit
I would love to see more videos like this and any other dirt bike videos. I recently purchased my own dirt bike so my son and I can go riding together. You have been a great inspiration
Look at that smart fella on the bicycle just cruisin by all quiet, polite and happy. Even stayed on the bridge.
The fool forgot to Loctite his bike. Amateurs.
It's only when you're near death you really feel alive... Or just sore.
No concussion or broken bones Brian, not bad overall. I like visegrips, they're adjustable and they lock tight. Glad you had a good time. Thanks for sharing. Fellowship is good for the soul.
Get the boys to ride feet on pegs, cuts way down on injuries.
Tim Kirkpatrick and handles better I think
Wranglerstar, rolling the tire like you did has been a life hack for me over the years!
There are ALWAYS going to be naysayers. Just keep putting up content and the true fans will like the vids. I’m a big fan and I’m currently deployed so the daily updates really mean the world to me right now! Thank you so much!!!
He almost got swept away in the whitewater rapids ! .. lol oh, wait, that was a creek
Glad Brian's ok, hope you all stay safe out there!
These are great videos, I would just love to go trial riding with my daughter but unfortunately my health doesn’t permit me to so watching you guys is a bitter sweet pleasure. You are very lucky.

The Pacific NW Leprechauns
Where's the lock-tight when you need it?
Nothing like pushing a bike up a muddy slope when it's in gear.
Love it.
"...Jeremy Clarkson's second favorite Tool." Love that comment from Jack.
Dude that was the most exciting live stream I have ever watched. And just when one starts to think that Mr. Wranglerstar has too much stuff then you see how useful it all is.
Lol @5:00 we need to locktite that. Love his passion for the locktite
Nice ride. Thanks for taking us along.
Thanks for taking us along
nothing feels better than being in control of your own fate in any given moment
Just a quick reference on metrics there Cody, 25mm is an inch...more or less. I have found it to be a help when you are trying to figure out how long some things are that are given in a metric measure. I'm on your side when it comes to the metric system. I don't have no use for it.

Jack needs to stand up more it will help not beat him up as bad
Need some taller risers for those bars, Cody. They'll help you stand up a little straighter and make the bar/grip angle more comfortable for your wrists
These moments are the best part of rides with friends! If every ride went according to plan it wouldn't be as fun! Nice video.
Looks like an awesome ride, way different than the So Cal desert riding I am accustomed to. Wet dirt, roots and logs, I like it!
Hey Wranglerstar family, if you ever go through colorado, bring the bikes!!!! Nearly endless beautiful mountain trail riding around Ouray, Silverton, Ironton, Telluride area! Youve just gotta do it before you kick the big bucket!
Great trail Cody.... Time well spent with family and friends
I don't understand how he could have possibly gone off that bridge!! Never seen anything so ---. Glad he's O.K. but maybe he needs more practice before hitting the trails.

But then doesn't everyone think their opinion is shared by majority ;-)
I love how he teaches jack amazing lessons while they happen
If people don’t like these videos you can just start a separate dirt bike channel
love the content but the titles kill it, keep up the good work!
Definitely not a waste of time. I personally enjoy small clips such as this. Thanks for the ride lol.
Try Trials bikes, so much more fun (and safe) for this kind of riding. You will learn how to clear these sections without putting a foot down, let alone, walking the bike thru. (A rope is standard eqt when you get that far from base.)

Awesome video. Any riding will be appreciated. Thanks for sharing!!
Love this type of video, Well love all your videos. Good to see your amazon store growing again.
I love it!!! takes me back 15 years ago!!! Thanks
I bought a 1979 Honda XR185 last year. Pretty nice!
0:34 next time Jack will go a little farther in the woods to relieve himself! He should know by now that whatever you do when you're with Cody the whole world just might see! 😂
I did expect locktide in this video. Cody keeps on suprising.
I loved the video. It's real life and things happen. Thank you for enjoying the rest of the day
LOCTITE TO THE RESCUE!
I'm glad Brian is okay.
And by the way, Cody: You will learn the advantages of the metric system if you have to run 3 kilometers instead of 3 miles. ;)
Now that's kinda scary , crashes are , glad no one was hurt .. I've rode trails for years myself and have been down a few times .. On tools , for myself i learned early on to carry a tool pack so i always did , there were times it paid off for me... good video on your adventure ...

Glad Brian is ok. Seems like a stand up guy. God is Good!
Great video Cody, glad Brian wasn't hurt worse.
How FUN (and lil bit scary too)! Thanks for sharing!!!

Awesome! And what a close call! Glad he is ok!
Glad no harm done Brian! Thanks for the vid Cody!
I enjoyed seeing that. I almost forgot that awkwardly manhandling bikes out of sticky situations and impromptu repairs are a big part of the dirt bike experience.
30 foot of rope would be nice to tow out of this and or to tow a guy home if it stops running for good.
I want to live your life! You are truly blessed!! More riding videos, please!!
Nice scenery. Moving the front wheel reminds me of 1st 4-wheel drive vehicle...buggy with person at each wheel.
Such a beautiful place. Really is an outdoorsman’s paradise.
put some stiffer fork springs in the xr 250 stock springs are too soft for an xr 100! :) New springs won't assure that you stay on bridge tho! :)
Set the camera angle higher. A POV of the front tire is terrible. Also get a gimbal.
Stop telling me what to do,
I like snarky wranglerstar
:'(
schmitty8225 I feel like you should throw in a “please” or a “maybe you should”
I really enjoyed watching you riding down the trail. Any chance we can get more footage like that? Maybe even a chest cam that doesn't look so far down. Thanks for the great content!
Love the Pacific NW. The stretch in Eastern WA from Ione to Metaline Falls is some of the purest country on Earth.
I go 4 wheeling with my brother he has a side by side big lift big bloggers nice winch and we get the most enjoyment pulling people out of rough spots it’s all part of the hobby
Looks like a great day. I am glad that Brian did not get hurt. You a plug for Loctite in there too.
Did you put the red/green spring(?) ( for more power) back in?
Good stuff, Sir. Thank you.
That would be a little scary slipping and falling into the drink!
Any video with dirt bikes in it is worth my time
comments to support this wonderful channel. I am would love to live in that state.
What do you mean a waste of my time?! That was great! I've been snowmobiling for a long time and your crew will remember that for the rest of their lives. Those "situations" are memory makers.
Great Video! Keep up the great work. Eagerly awaiting more bridge videos :)
i have the same ram mount mirror and hand guards, pretty tough equipment
Great video! That looks like a great single track trail!
Are those fancy "Hammer Rocks" available on your Amazon store?
Epic falls become stories of legend over time.
I love your videos I live in the United kingdom and just keep up the good work and you have a beautiful house and land
Livin the Braap life ... good times indeed complete with some thrills and spills
Glad he wasn't inured, and that all of you had a fun day riding.. Peace!
It looks awesome, hope you enjoyed the outing!
I like the Shamrock patch,amazon buy,from a Irishman in Maine.
Cascades? I thought that was Mt. Fuji behind your place.
Glad everyone is ok
Just for feedback, I'm not a fan of the camera angle when riding. All you really see is your front fender. You covered the difficulty of getting it setup properly in a previous video but if you could point it a little higher, that'd be great (office space reference)
Nasty spill, I'm glad Brian is O.K.
Hey Wranglerstar, do you carry a handgun when you go dirt biking . I carry one when I go dirt biking and was wondering if you carry too .
Pain is weakness leaving the body. Unless you were light infantry then it's probably early onset arthritis.
I mostly solo ride so something like that would just ruin my day, lol. I actually got stuck one time and I had to lay the bike down and move the rear tire about an inch, then switch to the front and move it about an inch, then back to the rear, etc. etc. etc. It took me like half an hour to get my bike back on the trail.
My old DR650 weighed about 450lbs. Super heavy! KTM is just over 200lbs. Big difference especially when pushing it 😂
i think jack needs some riding lessonsf
Those Honda XR's are amazingly tough bikes..amazing all around really..in my opinion you can't beat a Honda four stroke bike..dependability is beyond belief with them..
