Happy to get dirty, but fully street ready with standard lights, mirrors and turn signals. That's the Honda XR650L: a true two-wheel all-terrain vehicle. Its 644 cc Radial Four-Valve Combustion Chamber (RFVC) four-stroke engine has the low-end torque to pull you out of a deep mud hole, and the horsepower to cruise effortlessly on the highway when your trail ride is over. Aggressive dual-sport tires grip hard on dirt, gravel or pavement, and the fully adjustable Showa™ suspension makes small work of big rocks or deep potholes. A bike that's this much fun gets ridden a lot, so we also made sure it's comfortable for long hours in the saddle.
