Really appreciate all the pos feedback guys! Will be working on a new video in coming weeks. Stoked to be able to share the thump with fellow xr lovers worldwide 🤙🤙
Pretty Hectic Riding Brother! The Old XR's are @ Home in the Bush!! Great to see Someone riding the bike to its Full Potential!! I don't think too many KTM Riders would be going around you in an Enduro or Pony Express! -Cheers 👍🍺
Great bike. I love the throaty exhaust. I know I'm in the minority in the dirt bike world, I would love Honda to put their resources into a real air-cooled aluminum-framed great suspension lightweight simple dirt bike.
This riding was just great. Thankyou. That distinctive sound of an XR is just too good. God dam I miss mine, they cost a small fortune to buy now. Wish I never let it go
Correct, in Europe too. But that's a lot for a decades old dirt bike. So there has to be something about it! Any same age European enduro bike costs you half that or less. I sure do like my 2001 road legal XR400R. Regards from The Netherlands @@corneliusthecrowtamer1937
I just picked up a 98 xr 400r- and I love this vid, and how lucky to have such a killer course to ride! I cant wait to get out! Keep these vids coming dude!
AWESOME VIDEO!!!! long live all of the old XR’s! You, sir can ride!!!! I’d love to see someone who discounts the old four strokes stay with you , let alone do it with such finesse. Fine job , my friend! Ride on, ride red!!
Just picked up a 98 XR400....its my first foray into dirt bikes (coming from a Harley fat bob and 72 CB750) and super excited to learn how to ride on dirt and to get the most out of the bike. Great riding!
How many miles and how much? Hope it's doing you good. I'm currently on a '15 yz250, but I don't race and I'm on a race bike... Needing something more all round and most likely plated to get some more seat time. Considering xr400r, drz400, and xr650l.
Bought mine new late 98 still got it, don't ride it much now ,got a dr650 for the same reason they are simple and reliable. the best part about an XR 400 is passing KTM riders, they hate it.
excellent always wanted one of these bikes. have owned 3 400ex over the years but havent gotten the bike yet. knowing how capable a trx400ex is on the trails..the xr just has to be the king
Just got a 99 2 weeks ago for 500 waiting on a throttle cable and it should ride ive started it. had it together last night kicked over for a few second then died so im thinking the carb needs tuned and cables need replaced found a airbox and skid pl8 for 70 bucks almost there
Got the first ride in today she rips. Upon tear down was missing pilot jet ordered a tuning kit off amazon. Had the throttle cables replicated at a local shop after a swing and a miss online. For only 650 in so far not a bad bike got to get the plastics kit and maybe do a full teardown and wreanch rabbit now that i have a runner. Shes leaking oil out the stator wire if anyones seen and dealt with this curious to what you found
I always rode 2 stroke mx bikes, still do. The only 4 stroke bike back in the day I had any respect for were the XR's. I have a 400 EX quad basically the same XR 400 engine in it but electric start. I wonder if my 400 EX engine would fit in an XR 400 frame.
Did you get one? I am 6'2" and can just flat foot it with my weight on the bike. You could ride it at your height, but don't expect to touch the ground with both feet at once.
I never realized how fuckin quick these were. I guess i should know better i ride a trx450r and ride with 400ex guys and the quads rip pretty good. This xr just roosts and hammers along. I might have to find one hmmm

Best bike on the planet
U mean second best. Xr600r is this bike but for big boys lol.
Maybe 4th
I’d say if your a 4 stroke guy xr400 or the 250 is the best woods bike ever made but if your a 2 stroke guy you just can’t beat the kdx200 or the 220
@@justinlloyd9342 I ride a yz125 in the woods
@@justinlloyd9342 I've got both an xr600 and kdx200. The only two bikes I'll ever need
98 400r here and love it. People dont know how good the bike is even 26 years later.
I love my Honda XR400R. Greatest bike ever built for the woods.
I can’t count how many miles I’ve put on my 99. Not just a woods bike, it’s taken me across some of the best stretches of desert in Arizona.

CRF 230 ?

Have a 97 myself. Plated it, slapped a 6 gallon tank on it and get many smiles per gallon! Parts are so amazingly cheap as well.
Quality riding quality filming and quality setting... also quality sounds.. right on!!

That echo off in the woods. Memories! Thanks for the video!!
one of the best. I always had a better piece of mind on my XR ,not afraid to go anywhere . I miss those long trail rides.
King of the bush...phenomenal riding, thanks for sharing.
Had the privilege of riding one for a full day in the high mountains of Bolivia. Awesome bike. Loved the video 👌🏻

Gotta Love The Old XR400. Ride Red ✌🏻
Thank You so much for this video! It's really well edited and features some ballsy riding...I really love the sound of the XR400 - What a bike
This thing sounds amazing.
great riding looks like you had a ball. brings back lots of good memories
I had one and enjoyed it. However, if you dropped it was almost impossible to start. I was blown away yours started so easy!

Back when Honda built trail bikes not Mx bikes slightly modified for the trails or trail bikes best suited for novice riders (crf250f)
That XR is so original - great to see and hear. Looks very similar to mine, which I have kept original.
Make more videos please!
Bought mine new late 98 still got it, don't ride it much now ,got a dr650 for the same reason they are simple and reliable. the best part about an XR 400 is passing KTM riders, they hate it.
Looks like an awesome spot to rip!
Great video! Loved watching and hearing that XR rip around the woods.
cheers!
That is a very good dirt bike, I still got my HONDA XR400R and had it rebuilt with a bigger gas ⛽️ Tank.
excellent always wanted one of these bikes. have owned 3 400ex over the years but havent gotten the bike yet. knowing how capable a trx400ex is on the trails..the xr just has to be the king
Best XR vid on the tubes for sure. Thanks for posting

Nice video bro sheeesh 🔥🔥🔥
Excellent
What kind of bike would you recommend that would be close to this XR but with electric start?
Awesome vid mate , ive just got myself an ‘04 . What gearing are you running on it ? Cheers from down in Vic 😉👍🏻👍🏻
nice mate! I am running 15-48 at the moment. could go a 14 front for 100% bush riding
Cheers 👍🏻👍🏻🍺
Wonderfulll bike
No radiators to smash 👍🏻
Also skilled rider!
Easy when its your back yard
Skills
cheers brother!
I'll say this - you can handle a motorcycle - or is that Adam Reimann under that lid?
Nice job filming the video. I'm thinking about maybe buying an xr400. How tall are you ? I'm wondering if it will fit me I'm 5'4.
i'm around 6ft. They aren't a low bike in standard trim, that's for sure
Did you get one? I am 6'2" and can just flat foot it with my weight on the bike. You could ride it at your height, but don't expect to touch the ground with both feet at once.
@@derekmoore1612 No I decided to save up a get a Suzuki LTZ400.
Great bike but god it was heavy!
What exhaust is this ?
Staintune
Would love to own one,no place to ride any more,

Top legal bom fim de semana
I never realized how fuckin quick these were. I guess i should know better i ride a trx450r and ride with 400ex guys and the quads rip pretty good. This xr just roosts and hammers along. I might have to find one hmmm

Thinking of trading my wife for the xr 400😀
My XR400R is in great shape....
How's the wife?....lol
