DID SOMEONE SAY XR
The Honda XR650R, affectionately known as the "Big Red Pig," is a true legend in the world of off-road motorcycles.
Produced from 2000 to 2007, this absolute powerhouse redefined off-road performance. Equipped with a 650cc liquid-cooled, overhead cam, single cylinder engine, a dry-sump oiling system, and a lightweight aluminum frame, the XR650R was engineered to conquer the toughest terrain. Its powerful engine delivered exceptional performance, while the frame’s design provided stable and predictable handling even in the most challenging conditions. Most notably, the XR650R became a dominant force in the desert, earning its place in history with many victories in the Baja 1000—a grueling test of endurance and skill. While it is now more sought-after for dual-sport riding, the XR650R remains, at its core, a no-compromise, kick-start-only dirt bike, built for pure, unrelenting performance.
