Are These Cheap XR150L Mods The Solution To Our Problems??

  • The last time you saw the XR150L, I installed every OEM accessory that Honda offers for it. Unfortunately, I wasn't a super big fan of most of the accessories though. Today, I found some new mods that should address the problems I had with the factory Honda XR150L parts, all while being around the same price or cheaper! Oh and there's also a curveball mod that might be too good to be true...

    I just recently bought the xr150 , I've had mine for little over a week now. And have been searching for a rear storage bag just like this one. Clean look and easy to strap on. Keep killing the 150 content man👌

    • @STho205
      @STho205 Год назад +1

      Almost any under 2x2 bag will do. Hate the ones that have to be covered though.
      Consider a generic 2L dry bag or the WalMart $40 dry bag backpack...take the padded shoulder straps off and strap it to the rack. It comes to be strapped to your rack or back.
      The Amazon one here for 70 will expand to hold your helmet...not bad and it looks to be an ergonomic fit.

    @matthewpeterson3329 Год назад +5

    Great videos! But I hate those hose clamps. If it were my bike, I would drill the frame and guard, and install a RIV nut / PEM nut, them use a stainless button head fastener. Would give it a clean and professional look, and likely last longer. I will bet those hose clamps give up the first time they get dragged across a rock. That's my two cents anyway. Keep up the great content!

    I like your content and delivery. I have had two XR150 in Asia, about 20,000km. That bash plate with bars is ridiculous and how it mounts to the frame. So amateurish. Its main job is protect the bottom of the engine and the engine casing. The complete bottom of the engine is exposed. Check out the B&B Bash Aluminium plate for the XR150. Pricey but thats how to build an indestructible bash plate, 4mm aluminium, full seam welds and specific bolts to the XR150 frame allowing for Oil changes without removing the bash plate. Manufactured the same as full Race, Rally, Desert bash plates specifically made for each model bike. Whilst i have used B&B products over many years they are expensive but a similarly designed bash plate out of quality materials is whats needed. Love the rear bag, use a quality rear bag previously on other bikes and it works so well, convenirent and simple removal.

    • @michaelsmith-rh4yt

    Just an FYI, instead of working shorter to get that Allen key inside of the guard/skidplate it's likely a situation where you can work longer, moving the tool outside of the confined space with a ratchet extension or long Allen key and then being within tolerance at a slight angle.

    The XR150 is a workhorse! I have a detachable 55l top box for grocery shopping only. I'm 6'2" over 200lbs and my wife is taller than the average Filipina. We loaded the top box and ourselves on the XR on Saturday and the bike had no problem. Didn't even bottom out in a big road dip where the cars slow down. This bike is the bomb in the Philippines. When it's just me riding, I simply take a backpack. I've seen the XR with large side cases and it looks like a little bike pretending to be a big bike.. lol just my opinion...

They had me with the food, stole me with the music (Vicente Fernández is the greatest singer that ever lived), and have me obsessed with this little bike. Made by our Mexican brothers and sister workers. Looks like they are doing a hell of a job.

    I'll buy the bags and tank bag if you want to sell them.

    You skipped the best cheap easy mod, a milk crate.

      I should’ve specified that I like my mods to look good too 😂 Milk crates are definitely not my style, but I can see the practicality of em!

      @@LifeOfBurch of course, it’s not stylish but in a pinch it can haul plenty.
      In all seriousness though, I am looking forward to future videos on this bike and the others… maybe a LifeofBurch orange vinyl DIY wrap series since nothing in the stable is your color anymore?
