Ok I have redone this thread as I think I now know how to load pictures etc so here goes.
My XR650R was purchased from GHR which is the Honda factory appointed off road race team. The team had built it for the 2005 Australian Safari. The safari was never ran in 2005 so the bike just sat in workshop until I purchased it. I was told that they had spent over 100hrs building the bike and the cost including purchase cost of the bike and all the bits and pieces was over $28000.00. I didnt pay that much (who would?) I worked out to purchase a new XR650 and do the mods I wanted would cost me over $14000, so to buy this one with more mods than I could ever dream of for less then that I was happy as!

More pics please
Some updates for the BRP
Chain gang sprocket set, not cheap but if I get the 6,000 to 8,000kms they reckon I will they would be worth it, I have two complete sets depending on where I ride
The cold air intake I mentioned in another thread
I have fitted some fork bleeders, levers rotaters and been trying to sort the jetting out, it has always popped on the over run at high rpm’s but since the cold air intake its worse, this means its to lean.
I have removed the 68s pilot screw (low speed) and fitted a 72, I also fitted a 220 main jet but have since gone back to a 205 but I have a flat spot on snap reving although you dont often snap from idle, I will keep fiddling with the mixture (slow speed screw and see what comes of that.
Cheers TB
