I got the hole-shot, then got shut down on the third corner by Jim Clark who thought the trail went straight until I started turning right! this caused my bark-buster to interfere with my throttle (cruise-control sucks for races!)
Most of us on my line avoided the extreme section fearing the traffic jams that occur when only one good line up a steep section exists.
The go-around section was packed with stuck riders but the xr400 made it's way through easily for the most part .
I hit the last tree on the track but still made out in third place!
Thanks for watching and commenting!! and blow me thumbs downers!!!!

    Xrs forever. Show everyone how us East coasters can rip through anything.
  • The 400 absolutely destroys everyone else on the hill climbs and tight technical sections, and can hold its own everywhere else on the track too. Gotta love that smooth torque!

    Just bought one xr 400 97 It's was always my dream, late but im very happy You are great rider🤟🏻
  • @2strokeme64
    best part is that XR will still be running on the same engine in 15 years...
  • I love my XR400, I made the mistake of selling my first one. Still my main dirt / dual sport bike.
  • @bunnys1980
    great race man you passed plenty of smokers. you 're ripping on that XR
  • Dude great hole shot! I love showing guys up on the really expensive new bikes on my old xr 250r. Ya put a smile on my face
  • @teepee4296
    The best dirt bike ever built ! Compliments to the rider a proper rider !
  • @Jblaylock777
    I love how you passed all the two strokes on that big hill in the beginning while they were spinning there butts off that was priceless! Then when you get on the trails the big thumper is just chugging along not even breaking a sweat, great riding man!

    I thoroughly enjoy these videos. I just got back into riding and I picked up a clean ‘01 XR400R. I grew up on XR’s. In my 40’s now and the only prt that’s scary is the kickstart. My old buddies are on Husky’s now. I may end up on one too, but not as long as this XR keeps rocking!
  • @martynlewis9954
    Wow. Just wow. Thanks for posting this. Just got my XR finished, & this made me sweat, cant wait to get out there again. We have very similar enduros courses in the UK
  • @offroad8055
    You are killing it in the XR! Man I love it how you absolutely destroy that nasty rock/sand hill while everybody else is picking up their little 2-strokes!
  • 8:23 "You Meet The Nicest People on a Honda". I'm the same guy that gave this comment like I don't know like 4or5 years ago. Nice ride bro. 💪
  • @lanes58
    That Honda 400 4-stroke, sure beats the sound of those ringadingding 2-strokes
  • @solartherm
    Hey Thanks for watching my video! I’m close to 1000 subs which would allow me to live stream a race So please hit da button and help me out Thanks!!
  • @RideWithTheWolf
    The bike is getting worked, but you almost can't tell because of the video perspective. This reminds me of Georgetown where I took my xr recently. It performed great 😮
  • @daves984
    Climbs that hill like a tractor, while the 2 strokes were digging trenches like a rotor tiller.
  • @tkmusa5211
    Nice riding XR buddy. Like the way you give a shout-out to the slow guys
  • @ericgage9604
    That's me cheering you on at 19:04 and 24:10! Sorry for almost hitting you haha. You were rippin'!
