Gear up for an epic journey as I take on the formidable Baja Peninsula, riding my newly acquired XR650R. With my father by my side on his trusty 450X, we conquer 1,200 miles of rugged terrain at a blistering pace of 300 miles per day. Encounter a wild array of obstacles, from cows and donkeys to treacherous rivers and unforgiving silt. Brace yourself for a ride that is as dangerous as it is challenging, pushing us to our limits and demanding every ounce of skill and determination. Get ready to witness the ultimate off-road adventure!

It was a sad day when Honda abandoned the XR 650R. A dual sport version with an E start would have sold like hot cakes.

There is a trick to get it started first kick.

Awesome and thank you! I love your quote, "This land has given me everything, a life, friends, food, love and its taken my tears, sweat and blood. It remains the last frontier against a world fueled by materialism, technology and comfort." So true and so happy I found this place 10 years ago myself! I rode from La Ventana to San Diego a few years ago on a older DR650 and loved every minute! Hope to cross paths in Baja Soon! Chris

XR650’s have won the Baja 1000 many times, the bike is a legend among desert racers and enthusiasts alike. I’ve had two of them, great machines.

Great ride! I was going to say, no flat tire? But, there you go ... can't escape without at least one baja flat ... at least one. I want to go down in May, but can't decide if I want to drive the Van, the old Tacoma, the cruiser or maybe a KLR650. Looks like the KLR might be the most fun. I'll probably go by myself though, so not too many crazy roads - no crashing.

Carful on the klr they need tready tires. I had d606 and they where very good. Also just be careful with the sand, she sinks like the titanic.

Great video footage, thanks for taking us along! Is this route part of the actual Baja 1000? The sound of that big XR clawing its' way through that terrain, that would stay with you for a very long time.

Eres una verga carnal. I just picked one up. What carb and jetting are you running? Is the radiator fan a good addition to the bike?

2002 xr with 240 hours on it. looks like it has suspension valved for 200lbs rider by precision concepts. ran a 15/51 sprocket gearing that came on the bike. but mid ride changed it to 14/47. has a trailtech 8inch halogen light and a bunch of switches for turnsignals. radiator fan and two that I have yet to figure out ( possibly power to gps or tracking device). oh year. never run a k&N filter offroad. it clogged and I almost got stuck in the desert. who know was kind of damage all that silt did to my engine...
