Jaynen 0 Posted September 15, 2008 Some guy who works for Fox racing products. Still fun to see a XR650L get a work out. Dude over on TT did some nice MX track riding on the WRR was cool to see it going high off doubles also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sure it may not be real race, but you have to admit in the right hands the bike does surprisingly well. I would be scared to take one of those on a track. I really got a kick out of the block passes Tedesco did on that thing. Either the other guy backs off and lets him by or gets tko'd by a 340 lb bike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Hammerin Hammon Posted September 16, 2008 http://www.dualsport-sd.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=983 I found out, how well the 650L Adventure H.C. worked on the track a long time ago. I loved it. I couldn't believe how well a bike I bought to ride 2 up on surf trips performed. But, what would you expect, it's a Honda. Craig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tntmo 901 Posted September 16, 2008 If I remember correctly there was an article in Dirt Rider a while back about an editor racing a pro, the editor was on a modified Suzuki RMZ450 and the pro used all stock Suzuki bikes from the 450 down to the DRZ110, and eventually a BMX bike. I think the editor finally caught him on the BMX bike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
