    I've had my Xr150l for about a month and couldn't be happier with it.

    I've been "road tripping" around the Philippines Islands with my 2023 XR150 for 16 months now....what a Fun bike..!!! (Philippines price?..$1,435.00usd total, 3yrs Plate and Insurance included)👍🏼

    I am 64 years old and have a few bikes, as well as a 2014 Honda XL 200, and I must agree with you that they are great fun on tight trails! On the open road you have to go flat out (not fun) to try to keep up with the passing traffic, but on the trails they really come into their own! They are super light, and easy to handle! Should they be dropped, they are easy to pick up! My BMW GS Adventure is great on the tarmac & gravel roads, my Dakar 650 is a good all-rounder, and my little 200 is perfect for me on the trails!! Thanks for a great video and warm greetings from South Africa!

    Hi All , I purchased mine right away first sight. White as some have mentioned the black ones in the bush showed scratches . As of yesterday 1900 miles . Top speed 66 mph. With the wind tucked down and trying to draft a bus . Upgrades so far are a DZG led headlight best $30 you can spend , Amozon be seen and can now see at night . Tuck foldable shifter red , Pair of red foot pegs .
    A double usb/volt meter .
    The factory Honda tank bag . And a Kemimoto tail bag . The bike did spend 6 weeks in the shop it was surging and bucking wildly, they mistakenly diagnosed a carb issue for a loose pos wire on the coil . Once plug in no issues at all as expected . Would love someone to find a windshield. Factory handgards look useless as well as skid plate please help as mentioned bar risers please help . Thanks to Mishmashmoto has made a great vid on the carb and a 115 main jet upgrade at below 1000 feet fixes lean throttle response. Thankyou for your vid can't wait for new content on this XR150L . Sprockets would be nice as always looking for more top end .
    Peace from Canada to our US neighbors.

    Not sure everyone would want to do what I’ve done, but my ADV150 has been all over the National Forrest’s of New Mexico. Probably places you wouldn’t want to take the bigger dual sport. With 13k miles on it, I would agree… a small adventure bike is the absolute best. If I could get just a little more power out of I though, it would be the last bike I ever own. (I do have the big-lobe cam in it already)

    Oregon is amazing. Huck shakes at the Huckleberry Inn are the bomb btw. Man, I think you just sold me on this bike. Was considering a new TW200 as a farm bike, backwoods cruiser, light acute bike for where we live in the UP of Michigan but for the price this just seems like so much value. Surrounded by dirt forest service roads, trails,and two lane roads I think it might be the perfect all rounder for putting around and check new places out and just enjoying scenery. The fact it performs that well with a full load is great, I had been wondering what it would do when fully burdened. Good stuff, great video, really miss Oregon. Used to spend a lot of time at my hood and Bachelor. 👍

    Hey I love the video, im from Oregon too and Portland is Sh** hole, and moved away from there and I live on the Oregon coast now, I just found out about this bike and seriously thinking of getting one. Is there anywhere in oregon I can actually purchase that bike for MSRP price? Beaverton Honda motorcycle wants $1k over msrp price.

    I am 6"4' I would love one of these. My KTM 690 Enduro R I have setup perfectly. The Honda 150 XL I feel would be cramped. I think lowered foot pegs would be easy to make or even build a custom bracket. Have you seen or heard of a taller seat ??

    • @smileyguyz
      @smileyguyz 6 месяцев назад +1

      At least with mine, first is super tall. It's the same transmission and motor out of the CRF150F, and Honda did zero changes to the gear ratios aside from a sprocket change. TortureTestMagazine has a great article that goes into more detail on the gearing.

      My Xmax 300 gets up to 89-90 mph, gets similar mpg, seat and riding position way more comfortable than a Nighthawk 250, enough storage to hold two full face helmets, ABS and traction control, and it'll smoke your Nighthawk on any paved road.
      You might be thinking, how could I even make that comparison? These are two completely different bikes that are meant to serve different purposes. Well, that's I how I felt when I read your comment.
