One Bike Two Personalities - Honda XR 650 L


It's a dirtbike and it's a streetbike. And it's great at both. Built Baja-tough but street-legal, the XR650L is at home on the street and off-road.
It all starts in the engine room, where the XR's potent, Baja-bred 644cc OHC powerplant uses Honda's patented Radial Four-Valve Combustion Chamber (RFVC) to put out huge torque and power. From there, a gear-driven counterbalancer minimizes vibrations, while a light, rigid chassis and long-travel suspension soak up the bumps and deliver superb handling on pavement and off. Handy electric starting simply makes it all that much easier
