WoW! Never realised so many people were XL/XR lovers. I take my hat off to you gents. After years of slowly losing my riding partners and riding places my 84 XR 350R has sat in the corner of my barn for ahhhhhh 8yrs now. Thats the guess I'll make seeing how the last ORV sticker on the fender says 96. Last summer I rolled her out, drained the tank and carbs, flushed some new gas through her, put everything back together and with 5 to 6 kicks she was back to life! Got to love a Honda Bike!!! Rear drum was sticking and front disc was sticky but after a few hard blast through the yard (got yelled at for the dirt patches in the grass from shifts by the misses) the ol'XR was only a little more than ready to go. It put a grin on my face like I was a kid at Christmas again. She has some battle scars on her, Front fender is not original, Speedo doesn't read correctly, aftermarket bars and brush guards. Yes, early in her life we had a BAD endo off a jump, That's when I realised you cant jump a front heavy 4 stroke like I could my YZ-490. Side panel stickers are gone, bag on the fender has seen better days, does still have the owners manual and tools in it! K&N air filter and a Curtis Sparks pipe with spark arrestor. Needs new rubber, chain & sprockets and falls out of 2nd when you really start raging on her. Been that way as long as I can remember. So gentlemen, What price tag would you put on it? Thinking about putting it on my 2 place Leland trailer next to my 95 Polaris RXL 650 EFI Triple Snowmobile that needs TLC too and putting a FOR SALE sign on the whole package for $800. Later Guys, Nothing like Dirt in your teeth and Bees in your helmet!!!
