I agree. Pull to the moon. Perfect for long high speed rides.

Cali - your bike looks like it went on the south beach diet.

After spending tens of thousands of dollars racing the latest and greatest the last 25 years, and watching the cost of bikes and maintenence keep going up and up and up. I was amazed at how easy my buddys XR400 with suspension was top ride. On a tight track I can beat most of my buddys on 450's. They are a little top heavy and have a powerband like a lawn mower , but you can hold em wide and point and shoot. Tons of fun.

Awesome score. I started my Dual Sport career on a XR400 and haven't looked back!

A friend of mine just sold his XR600R a couple of weeks ago.

If I show him those pics, he'll probably cry.

Nice job.

Yeah, I used to be a big SS fan... that was his claim to fame, (other than being a champ) lifting that thing up. He said if you can't pick up your own bike, you need to train more. I think it really pissed off the two stoke guys! W00t

my buddy blew out his back lifting the ass-end of his daughters 110 off the ground.

i remember seeing that picture on the cover of a Dirt Rider magazine when i was in elementary. long before i ever had a bike or was racing. yet, i remember looking at that picture thinking he was a God. turns out he was.

I remember that photo. Scott is a stud. He beat and won against a lot of guys on lighter bikes.

If you ever get tired of riding it on trails...they make a heck of a flat tracker. Perfectly smooth power like a rheostat at the throttle. My buddy made a career of of racing the 600
