[QUOTE="Rodzilla, post: 103697, member: 16220"] Wolf, don't get me wrong. I LOVE my '00 XR4 and have logged a ton of miles (pushing the 6k barrier) Baja, Moab you name it. and yes the XR is not really heavier (by much) than the bikes you metioned, but it's definatly down on power compared to both. Yes the XR is perfect for my type of riding. But I just started to ride Hare scrambles and Every other bike out there passes me in the straights, WR, DRZ it does not matter. 5 th gear pinned and it feels like I'm standing still. My best friend/riding buddy and I are almost exactly at the same skill level. We both ride XR4's set up identically (actually they are 5 numbers apart on the VIN's) I'm faster in the tights, he's quicker in the whoops/Straights (he also weighs 30 lbs. less. When we ride we are always within a second or less of each other. And we're usually bumping tires. He just swithced to a YZ250f, Same HP as our XR's but 30lbs less (call it 60lbs if you include his skinny butt) and now I have trouble just keeping his rear tire in sight. Yes it's the rider not the bike but.. when your riding equal suddenly gets substantially faster because he's substanially lighter you gotta start to wonder. Guess I just gotta quit whining and get faster!:p :p [/QUOTE]
