I mowed lawns and dropped $470 OTD for mine in '74......put a DG ''Tiger Torquer'' pipe, a CR front mudflap and a 3.50 Cheng Shin out back. That sound takes me back!!

Very nice bike you did a really good job I have a 1974 XR at home it just sits in my spare bedroom it's all original yours looks very nice with that pipe you did a really good job on that the 73 model was a little bit more of my favorite back in the day because of the bigger tank it's crazy amazing what they get for parts for these these days like even the kill switch is top dollar it's hard to restore one even if you can find the parts you're going to pay through the nose for it your bike is very nice the exhaust is cool I like to find one of those for my bike it's just offsets the whole bike so nice 74 I was 14 I wanted one of these when I was that age but my father said no because I was tall at the time and he felt that I would outgrow it my dad was right I later on got one years later very cool

Same. I wanted one the first yr they came out 73 with the red stripes. I was 14. My dad thought I needed something bigger. Ended up with a Hodaka. Super Rat. 👍 way better.

I had one of these when I was 13 years old after stepping up from a 5 horse power mini bike. There were 4 or 5 friends of mine that had Suzuki 75's or Yamaha 80's but I was the only one with the Honda. I had a couple of awesome summers riding this bike. So cool to see that there are some out there over 40 years old that still look like they are brand new!

This was what my first dirt bike was and then moved on to a Suzuki rm80 two stroke bit the Honda was always my favorite. Looking at buying a new air cooled crf250f I always loved the air cooled motors for trail riding

I remember the mini class was full of these. Yoshimura had kits and pipes that made these sound like beasts.

Excuse me, why does changing the spokes give an extra 5mph? You mean change the rear sprocket? I so badly wanted one when I was 13-15 years old. We can't ride legally until 18 in Australia, and I had been watching these minibikes since my neighbor got a Honda SL70 next door in 1972. I was 10 or 11. I was sooooo jealous and I whinged and whined to my parents for five years. There was no legal place to ride it near our house. Boy, was I shattered. At 30 I finally bought a bike. The XR was he one I wanted. The '74 silver/grey one. Also liked the YZ80 Yamaha.

I remember back when there was an 80cc 4 stroke class and an 80cc 2 stroke class. It was great watching all the XR75s racing each other.
