Getting close to the perfect offroad adventure bike!

Hi all!

Great photos - one question for all you "R" owners - I know the machine makes a lot more power than the "L" - two questions:

- what is the highway fuel economy at a "true" 75mph?
- what is the electrical output (or, is there an option for more amps?)

Thank you!

Paul

very nice!

kenaroo,
What fuel tank is that?

Sweet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Perfecta la Idea TOM..
Keep it Coming..

Some where in the North Eastern US half the time,
and in the middle of no where the rest of the time....

BEFORE: I really like the XR650R and it is no doubt a great bike. I had a thread going on a minor build up on mine, here is a before picture...

AFTER: I tinkered with my XR a lot and did a lot of mods to it, but i noticed it was starting to look a lot like a 640 adventure...



After all the mods and orange paint I realy like my bike now... Its everything I was hoping it would be!

Hey z! Nice job on your bike! Looks great! Sorry to disapoint you on my build up...

Anybody doing an XR buildup, z is a great source of knowledge and a good guy!

Paul,

The pig pen has the electrical output of the US bike at 55 watts. The European model puts out 77 watts stock. In my experience gas mileage at 70mph is usually about 43-45 mpg. I am running the stock carb with a 165 main.

I've seen that picture before.

LOL! Yeah, it’s amazing what a little paint, bailing wire and duct tape will do.

I see the family resemblance!

My XR650R:
