The Owens Valley in Eastern California contains a perplexing diversity of terrain. Crammed between two mountain ranges — both possessing 14,000-foot peaks that shoot up into the sky almost vertically — the entire region is an off-road riding dreamscape. Here's a quick glimpse of some of the fantastic terrain and incredible landscapes we encountered astride the legendary ‘86 Honda XR600R, on our ride through the Owens Valley.

#wheeliewednesday A HRC kitted XR650R that was so playful I decided to do the esses at Winton on one wheel, rather than two, cause I could….have a five shot sequence of this somewhere… I think it’s the only photo of myself I’ve ever had printed. So worthy of a re run. #honda #xr650r #supermoto https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch64ltQLxe5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Overwatch Motorcycle Headcanons, Part 2: Junkertown Customs

Yesterday we talked about Reaper and Soldier 76′s tastes in motorcycles, as they are two characters with explicitly motorcycle-themed skins. Today, we move on to a character with an explicitly motorcycle themed tattoo: Roadhog! Plus, Junkrat joins in for the wasteland vehicle fun.

Categories fall roughly under Contemporary (sport bikes and cruisers since 2000-ish), Mission-Spec (dirt, dual-sport, and adventure bikes), and Vintage (pre-2000ish and generally much older classics that reflect a character’s theme)

Roadhog (Mako Rutledge)

1967 Harley-Davidson based Custom (Vintage)

Where I’ve been giving a lot of folks as many as three bikes in the back of my head, I have a different approach to the ‘Hog. Let’s talk motorcycle history and custom cruisers for a moment. A close look at his tattoo reveals a bolt pattern on the valve cover that most closely resembles a Harley-Davidson “Shovelhead” V-twin. The “Shovelhead” was Harley’s full-size motor from 1966-1984, a production run of 18 years and well over 100 thousand made! It’s no surprise, then, that this is one of the H-D motors with the most apocalypse-proof parts bins - not necessarily the most reliable motor ever, but one that’s nigh-upon-infinitely rebuildable.

Also, look at that air filter. Doesn’t it appear a tad piggly? Move it down a bit and maybe, just maybe...

Ah, there we go!

So yeah, go google “shovelhead chopper” or “shovelhead ratbike” and you’ll get dozens of custom bikes - there’s a reason these are a popular base for old-school builds. For Mako I imagine something with a hard tail, a gas tank big enough for the outback, a cozy seat with a bar to lean back on, and some big ol’ handlebars.

Something like this:

But with a whole lot more rattiness to it, of course.

My verdict on my own headcanon is that Mako definitely has at least one of these as a stylish rider, but he’ll steal and ride just about anything that fits him when need be. Can’t be blowing up your own bike every mission, of course!

Junkrat (Jamison Fawkes)

Harley-Davidson Sportster 1200 (Contemporary)

At only 155 pounds, when Junkrat’s out cruising with Roadhog I imagine he needs a good bit less bike to get the same cruising speed. The Sporty is a very customizable platform, and so I imagine the rat bike is dialed in for equal amounts of comfort and also carrying maximum amounts of ordinance.

I imagine a rear seat as seen on this Sportster 1200, but just absolutely strung up with grenade belts

Honda XR650R (Mission-spec)

It’s easy to forget Jamison’s height of 6′5″, and for a bloke that height there’s an easy choice for a desert racer. Honda’s XR650R is often known as the King of Baja, capable of doing the ton - 100 miles per hour - off-road! It also has a seat height of 36.75 inches, which is a lot for someone at 5′11″ with a 32″ inseam like me (I’ve been on this bike’s predecessor, the XR600R, and was tip-toeing it at best). For blazing across open desert, though, this bike is a no-brainer. Plus, if the bike bites the dust, hey, free knobby tire for abuse as a Riptire ultimate!

Otherwise I imagine Jamison is like Mako and will steal anything he can to either joyride, blow up, or both.

Next time: Pharah and Mercy!

We had a blast riding our 1986 Honda XR600R project bike in the Eastern Sierras at the Lone Pine 300. Revived on a small budget, the legendary XR held its own with several modern bikes in our group (e.g. KTM 500 EXC, Beta 430 RR-S and Honda CRF450RL), riding on a range of challenging tracks. Moreover, it did it on a set of budget-friendly Dunlop D605 tires that cost about $100 a set. Just goes to show, you don’t need a lot of money to get started in this sport, and as far as style points, hands down the XR600R won the day!  Check out the full story: https://bit.ly/xr600revival
