Has anyone ever stunted on a honda xr 80?
I have one I might fix up if its worth it.

what yeat is the xr? the ones from the 80's are f-ing tanks i dont know about stunting them but you can beat the **** out if them!!

 

yeah its from the 80s i think 82 maybe 89 but I'm almost certain its an 82.

 

i tryed stunting a 1995. they are to low for wheelies to heavy for wheelies and the rake is way to long for stoppies. my 2001 xr100 is 1000 times better. when you rev the 80 up and dump the clutch the tire just spins no matter what your on pavement anything. the xr100 i can clutch it up on snow with my new noobies. but i have no idea about the older ones. but you can really stunt anything. but for the same practice time on a 100 you can be doing a lot more

 

oh sweet, one type of stunting I can actually give some insight on... 2000 XR80: Totally wheelieable. you gotta rev it to hell, clutch out, and lean back all in one motion, but it'll come up. Stoppies seemed impossible; just throw all of your weight over the front while braking and either it won't come up or it will flip right over. It didn't really have brakes in the traditional sense of the word

 

WTF...an '82? 25yrs old!!! It's not worth digging that bitch out the graveyard !


I started on a crf80.

 

if its in good shape. i would throw a couple bucks at it and ride them bikes last forever if you take care of them... +your 25 maby your a little rusty haha

 

well idk about an old one like the one you speak of, but my friend stunts an 03' xr80 and it seems to work fine for him, not the best but its stuntable. just my
