I just read your 2017 Honda CRV review...The Honda doesn’t come with the turbo motor as standard equipment and both n/a engines are fairly comparable to one another. Also the pricing isn’t the same, we paid under $30k for the XT, the same equipment for the Honda is $34k. However, IF you compare Honda’s turbo motor to…

Hit the #S mode next time you drive it...Huge difference in power delivery compared to the standard “i” & “S” modes. I usually drive it (my wife’s car btw) in “S” mode, gives better performance than the “i” mode and isn’t as aggressive as the #S mode. Also the CVT acts like a 6 speed in “s” mode and a 8 speed (closer…

We bought our 2017 2.0 XT for just under $30k...Which is also the same price for the n/a 2.5 motor with all the goodies...Apples to apples the XT is the better deal and out paces the Honda or Toyota...and BMW...and Mazda...All I’m saying is this: If you want the one of the most capable and fastest crossovers offered…

While I totally agree the n/a motor is way down on power and very slow, it’s 100% not with the turbo motor. Correct me if I’m wrong, but the 2.0 XT is the one of the fastest crossover’s you can buy...0-60 just over 6 seconds is damn quick by any standard. Why in the world would you say the Honda “turbo motor” is way…

I may or may not have done 145 in my dads ML55 AMG...on the 91 Fwy, mid afternoon...Then i almost lost it at 120 going up the mountain to Lake Arrowhead, slowed down after that. LOL I like fast, but high center of gravity SUV’s are not the best vehicle for it!

Not all manufacturing jobs can be done by a robot. I am in the industrial textile industry (Made in USA BABY!!) and I have personally watched the largest medical companies pack up and leave to Mexico. This move costs us millions of dollars (we are a smaller company, 250 employees) and the profit margin on medical…

If you can find one, ride it! Nice Buell btw, I’d love one of his new bikes!

The XR1200 is a great bike, but as with this bike it’s not the “typical” Harley and never got the love it deserved. However, my bike will eat those 500-750 street bikes up for breakfast...If you want a “fun & unique” Harley, the XR1200 is the best choice for the price and you can drag your knee all day long if you…

Cool bike! It’s more than the Harley XR1200 (I have a 2010) and slower all around. So, for the fact I already own a “rare” Harley with similar styling I’ll pass...however It would be fun to wrench on and restore!

Is this Maddog from the XR1200 form??

I have several friends that own 850 T5 wagons...I’ve never been in a car with more room and power for the money they spent! You can buy these for less than $2k all day and make over 300hp pretty easily, not to mention the awesome seats! Not the most reliable, and i hate the transmission, but it is a dope ride for…

Andrew, why in the world did you erase my comments on this thread? I own an XR1200 and i had factual information to post...AND YOU ERASED IT! What gives man? I’m 38 years old and grew up in the automotive industry...I AM THE TYPE OF PERSONWHO READS THIS WEBSITE. I visit this site 7 days a week and you erase relevant…

The xr1200 was a great bike when it came out. Not sure why they stopped making them (besides terrible sales numbers), it’s the best handling HD made and no slouch to ride. I’d Love love LOVE to get me an EBR bike one day...

No offense, I agree 100%...I am a bit taller (6'3") and it fit’s me great. Most sport bikes (and cruisers) feel really small to my long limbs, this puppy fits me like a glove! It’s no rocket bike, but it’s good enough to keep me happy.

Its a Harley...Duh! LOL

I think my XR looks nice...Much better than stock IMHO.

2012 was the last year to get one in the USA...2013 they sold a few to Brazil (187 to be exact)

I work from home making $2 billion an hour!! Ask me how! I typed that using my most evil face ever....Oh, cool truck flogging btw... Un-Gray me too?? lol

Nice looking rig! Do i spy King coil overs?? I’m super jelly...I’ve always been a fan of the early FJ, and you sir have a CLEAN one to boot! Very nice gypsy.

Oh man...I can feel your pain. I have several friends with new JK’s and they are soooo deep in the money ($65k+)I can only imagine. My TJ is great (when it’s not doing the death wobble or breaking the dana 35 rear) and it’s cost me not even a 1/5 to what the new JK’s run when they break. I agree on the Italian…
