  • Harley XR 750 registry ?

    Just wondering if anyone knows of a Harley XR 750 registry in existence? With all the hard and long racing I wonder how many are left from original factory run from1980 down.

        **MR. XR750 set-up every year at Wauseon for a long time. I could never catch him at his Rig to bS with him, but he had a Helluva XR Collection.

          Thanks JoJo, guess I'll have to get on Facebook one of these days. Went to Wasseon for the first time a couple years ago and saw Mr XR 750 display, just amazing. I always wanted an XR and finally picked one up last month. Have a few friends that raced them and they were it to me. I use to help push start my friends a few times at the races. Seems there should be a place to list all the engine numbers of surviving factory XR 750 bikes.

            Had an opportunity to pick-up Kevin Atherton's XR a couple years back. A friend i raced with bought it from Tom Cummings when all of those guys were with the Benson Ford Jr.'s Total Control Racing Team (TCR). I passed because of the year of that motor, which i can't recall, but the bearings were SUpER Expensive if a rebuild was ever performed. Rode some friends XR's over the years--they are Torque Beast's, and a GAS and a 1/2 to ride. Enjoy & have fun with your XR KNUCK.

              Well after all this time, ya' still learn something new. Always wondered who owned all those XR's. Mystery solved--Thanks Badger34.
              And, he must be MR.XR that parks his BIG XR Rig at Wauseon i take it. Haven't seen that line-up lately at Wauseon tho'.

                In conclusion, i would have to say that it would easier to be a TT Man, than it would to be an XR Guy.
