PROVEN. PRACTICAL. AND TOUGH AS NAILS.

In times like these, we all need something we can count on. And in the world of big-bore dual-sport bikes, nothing compares with the Honda XR650L. It's a tough, proven survivor that's been a cornerstone of our dual-sport lineup for decades.

Its simple, air-cooled 644cc single-cylinder engine offers legendary reliability and plenty of power, while an electric starter makes your life easier. Long-travel suspension and a rugged steel frame perfected in Baja smooth out dirt roads and in-town commutes, no matter how lousy the pavement.

Other bikes come and go, but Honda's XR650L is in it for the long run. And you know what? That's just the way we like it.

CONVENIENCE
• ELECTRIC STARTER: Adventure is just the push of a button away. The XR650L's electric starter takes all the drama out of restarting off-road, or getting underway on a cold morning or after the bike's been sitting all week.

DESIGN
• SEALED BATTERY: No maintenance hassles here, even in case of an off-road tip over. The sealed battery has plenty of cranking power for the electric starter, and is well protected from the vibrations of off-road riding.
• DRY-SUMP LUBRICATION: The XR's dry-sump design keeps the engine compact and eliminates the oil pan for superior ground clearance and damage resistance. With the engine oil in the frame, the frame itself acts like a giant oil cooler.

HANDLING
• 18-INCH REAR WHEEL: The 18-inch rear wheel gives you a better overall ride and more sidewall protection against flats, and still offers a wide choice of on- or off-road tires.
• 21-INCH FRONT WHEEL: The 21-inch front wheel gives you a wide choice of tire selection for different riding conditions.
• LONG-TRAVEL FRONT SUSPENSION: With a full 11.6 inches of travel, the air-adjustable 43mm fork also offers 16-position compression damping adjustability, letting you fine-tune it to deal with the bumps of off-road riding.

PERFORMANCE
• FOUR-STROKE ENGINE: The XR650L's four-stroke, single-cylinder engine offers good fuel efficiency and a wide powerband. In addition, its proven powerplant requires very little maintenance.
• DISC BRAKES: Front- and rear-disc brakes provide superior stopping power. Both front and rear disc rotors are drilled for lightness and better wet-weather performance.

VERSATILITY
• STREET-LEGAL FEATURES: Fully equipped for the street--including turn signals, license-plate light, mirrors, speedometer and more. There's even a grab strap and footpegs for a passenger.
• PASSENGER READY: With a passenger grab strap, folding passenger pegs, a long MX-style seat and plenty of Honda power, the XR650L lets you carry a passenger with ease.
