awesome documentary of baja 1000...I think this might have been one of the last years before Honda moved to the oversquare 450 mill. I see a lot of early 2000 XR650R's around here that are plated and man, I wish I had one before California made it impossible to license dirtbikes for road:

ReplyDeletelove the section where the rider takes a detour off the side of a cliff & then follows the shore line for some head down speed.

yup, i bet that big thumper can really stretch it's legs out on the beach...riding at night on a moto off road at speed...pure insantity. it didnt seem like such a good idea even when i was young'un riding my XR350...I've done off road endurance races on mtn bicycles before, 24 hour relay sort of deals, and when you're tired and going fast, the last hting you need is an absence of sunlight...binning it becomes almost an eventuality at that point! at least pain is not so bad when sleep deprived...
