Most of our small bore on/off-road bikes in the ‘70s (the term dualsport hadn’t been invented yet) came as 19/17s. And we survived. As for tires, most Kenda and a few Shinko, models have you covered.
thanks for sharing. definitely interested in one of these little knockarounds. would be nice to have a flat seat instead of stepped and the front fender should be down by the wheel with a flap like the trail 125 to keep the fling from messing my jeans and the motor fins :)
I added an extension to my front fender on my XR150, inexpensive and useful. No LEDs on this bike because the power is AC off the magneto. I plan to convert mine to DC after the warranty expires.
Great video. I live in Mexico and got the Chinese copy: Vento Crossmax 200. Lesser quality, more accessories(LED handguards, LED headlight, slider-bar, trunk case), and half the price. That being said, I envy whoever has an actual Honda.
What are the dimensions of the boxes the bikes are in? What is the shipping weight for the bike inside its box? I am thinking of having one shipped to where I am now. We don't have it in any local dealers. Answers will be appreciated.
The quoted gas mileage is not what honda claims . My xr150l gets about 180 or so miles before it cuts off and you have to switch to reserve fuel otherwise you aint going nowhere .
I called my local Honda place. They have the XR150 in stock for 2970.00 so I'm thinking ok cool I can get a relatively cheap on/off road for 3300 to 3500 after taxes and bs...NOPE!!!! 4900.00 with extended warranty and 4300.00 without. Wasn't expecting the sharp kick in the nutz though with the price 😂😅😂
I guess Honda America noticed all the Chinese selling 90s era clones by mail. This is a 90s Honda bike popular all over Asia. Honda had erased this older analog tech from their North America line between 2008 and 2015. Drums and carbs were supposed to be gone for good.
I live in Panama and see these bikes everywhere. They cost 2300 dollars. They are selling like hot cakes. Yes, they are super basic bikes. They are pizza delivery bikes.
This has nothing to do with you but I'm beyond pissed off and aggrivated.!!!!! I cannot find one of these new Honda Motorcycles. Even if I prepay 100 percent to order one straight from the factory. Caint be done. At least that's what the Honda Dealer said to me.
We just bought two. They are awesome machines! Much better then expected.
Did you have to pay above MSRP. I'm in Montana , none available. The nearest is @ a dealer asking
$4199.00 in South Dakota.

nice looking bike. i have always liked the XR
I just ordered one earlier today, I can’t wait
Nice Video Thnx
Got mine yesterday.
Love it!❤
Exact same bike as the Chinese Hawk but smaller engine. Kind of tall and heavy for a 150.
Just got mine today in NJ, beyond excited for a tinker toy
Total time to un-box and put together start and ready to go?

Looks nice, inexpensive transportation.

Why the up charge if the MSRP is $2970?
@@Cobe1976 dealerships trying to get what they can get out of people I guess. Getting another quote later today.

the cost of living is going up, wages are staying the same, I for one am glad that simple motorcycles are coming back. I love my XR
NEWBIE HERE: How do you get it in a box like this, probably not a dealership I'm assuming 🤔
This is how it come shipped to the US dealers
You buy it assembled at the dealership. That’s the reason they tack on anywhere between a $300-500 “set up” fee.
$200 set up fee to put the handlebars, fender & mirrors on. I’d rather save $200 & just take it in the box & do it myself.
Did it come with oil in it
Yep
