Another, more damning feature, is that the XR650R is a water-cooled bike with radiators. The bike above cleared does not have radiators. This bike is more likely a predecessor to the XR650L, but the plastics throw me.

Hard to tell really because I can't find any pictures of the actual XR as used in the film online. The XR and the CFR are both air cooled singles, but I suspect the smaller bike was easier to do some of the stunts on.
