I am enjoying this but had to pause. I have ridden both of those bikes.........well the XL250....close enough. The DT1 was an evil handling thing even without having 50 year old, rusted rear shocks. And that XL motor was a gem! Tons of torque, a real tractor. My TL250 trials bikes have almost the same engine. And the Xls handled pretty well as long as the whoopdedoos weren't to severe. Back to the vid. Note, I was considered a bit weird in high school as I liked 4 strokes more than 2. Still do.

Its funny, I have owned both of those bikes, and the Yamaha always felt "fragile" when compared to the XL.  Great video, I really enjoyed it.

I quite agree.

This episode is vying as my favorite trip of theirs, mostly due to their closest call to phoning the whole thing in. Glad they persevered, with on-the-fly decision-making, a total inspiration.

Certainly helps to have a spotter truck tailing you.
