Honda has launched a more powerful version of its popular and versatile XR farm workhorse. The new Honda XR150L will replace the XR125L, with a larger capacity engine and a host of improvements.
The single- cylinder engine has an increased stoke, and it now makes more power delivered lower in the rev range. There's also a new internal engine balancer which reduces vibration.
The XR150L is equipped with an electric start and a backup kickstarter, while there’s a redesigned seat. The rubber covers on the footpegs can be removed for safe, non-slip riding when the terrain gets tough.
Fresh styling includes a new headlight design with protective shield; a higher front fender; and a narrower fuel tank that has the same 12-litre capacity as the XR125L.
With a larger air cleaner and a sealed, maintenance-free battery, the XR150L requires less attention.
The machine is available in red at $3299.
