Back in February, John and I took a ride on an unusually warm Monday. Though we both have CT125's we both opted for our bigger bikes. John rode his KLX300 and I rode the XR150.
We took off from John's place in Asheville and made our way down to Zirconia, NC where we picked up Green River Road. After 6 miles of pavement we finally hit dirt. John had formerly worked for the gentleman who owns the large tract of land that is pancaked in between Green River Road and Pinnacle Mountain Road, so he knew a bunch of cool spots for us to check out. Not all of them made it into the video, but it was an epic day of exploring overall.
There's a few 4x4 trails that parallel Pinnacle Mtn. Road, and so John and I had to take the bikes down them. We HAD to. Legally obligated...haha......
Finally, John and I switched bikes for the last bit of dirt road. He rode the XR while I rode the KLX. The difference between the two bikes is really interesting. The seat on the XR is drastically more comfortable. But, the KLX is waaaaaaaaay more powerful and the suspension is more suited to riding off-road. You don't get slammed around on the KLX like you do on the XR.
Once we hit pavement, John and I made our way back to Asheville as the sun was setting. We went our separate ways at the Blue Ridge Parkway with another good day of riding in the books.
Thanks for watching. More to come soon!

Looks like a blast. The xr is such a cool ride. Thanks for making me smile!!!!
Thank you for watching!
His videos fired me up, I said I wasn’t going to buy another motorcycle again. I just turned 50. I thought after 30 years I’m done riding. That little bike, I can’t help myself. Me and my buddy both bought one.😎
Brevard local here, whenever you're in town let me know. I have a crf450RL
That's a beautiful area. I was there in 2013, and hope to be back soon!
It really is!
Great ride! My brother lives in Asheville and I live about an hour south. Would love to meet up with you guys and ride sometime. Looking for groups or riding buddies to explore the area if you happen to know any. Be safe and have fun! PS - the XR is a great bike.
Great video - these roads look like a lot of fun to ride. What bike (and why) would you prefer more for riding Wind Rock, Pisagah Forest roads, Yellow Gap Rd - the XR 150L or the Trail 125? Cheers.
I would like to see the difference in the led light and oem please
Sym nht review?
What width are the stock handlebars? 7/8? Thanks
7/8, yes.
What's your opinion of the XR 150L?
how it's hill climbing ability
Are those the mid bars or the high? Easy install?
These are the Highs! Very easy install. It took all of 20 mins….maybe less!
