I must stop watching videos like this - otherwise I'm going to have to extend the garage! Started off watching how to take apart the Virago and now I'm addicted to these classics. Help!
No, the Honda XBR500 does not have the same engine as the Honda XL500. While both motorcycles belong to Honda's XL/XR series and share some design elements, including the general "thumper" single-cylinder engine configuration, they have different engines. The Honda XL500, which was produced in the late 1970s and early 1980s, typically featured a 498cc air-cooled, four-stroke single-cylinder engine known for its durability and versatility. It was commonly used in both on-road and off-road motorcycles. On the other hand, the Honda XBR500, introduced in the 1980s, featured a 498cc air-cooled, four-stroke single-cylinder engine as well. However, the XBR500 engine was distinct from that of the XL500, and it was designed for road use. The XBR500 was more of a road-oriented motorcycle compared to the XL500, which was designed for both on-road and off-road use. While both bikes have similarities due to their single-cylinder engine configuration, they are different models with distinct engines, designs, and intended purposes.
My first road bike.same colour as this one back in 91.have another one now but I can't get it to run right unfortunately
I really like these. We've been looking to get one in the workshop but we've not found the right one, yet.
The bugger is that by the time your video comes out the bike’s been sold!
I know. We should have got it on quicker but it really didn't hang around for any time at all. It was a nice thing.
@@MotorcycleFettlers I went straight to the website but it was already showing ‘Deposit taken 🤷♂️
I'd keep checking his site. I think he may be getting another nice one, soon.
@@MotorcycleFettlers your videos are doing Charlie a great service 😃
Thanks. He's very generous to let us take out so many of his bikes.
