So much fun

1023 miles, first bike thats actually mine, pegs, shift lever, bark busters, an old tactical backpack zipp tied to the rear rack, Could use a riser, a phone mount and a usb port, easy as hell to ride. Super duper fun been all over south east ky

The perfect Life bike. This thing will be working in 75 years as long as it is taken care of. Stock up on parts and it'll outlive/run you and me both. I really love that it is carbureted as well. Planning to get one as my first motorcycle. Thanks for the video dude.

I got mine 2 weeks ago as my first bike, I love it. I now work at the dealership I bought it from and we're getting a shipment of 5 more soon and I'm gonna get to build them for the showroom.

Been riding mine for 5 years and so far I don't have big issues on it aside from minor repairs that are common for most bikes. Its so reliable and easy to maintain with lots of aftermarket parts that can be found anywhere. Its not so fast but it can take you anywhere you want, it may on on road or off road.

I'm loving my XR150L here in tbe Philippines. Perfect bike for here, its considered big as most bikes are 125cc. Because its tall for here, you don't see a ton of them. Ive converted mine to all LEDs, swapped the carb to a PZ27 and installed a full Yoshimura exhaust. I did a tidy tail , aluminium handlebars with handguards, aluminium passenger pegs as well, dropped a lot of weight. Great bike!

The perfect light bike! My favorite small bike of all times was a 67 Honda 160 or 165 scrambler. It was gray and really classy and it had a beautiful sound.

Great video, very good. This same model was sold here in Brazil for a long time, initially with 125 cc and later with 150 cc. Today it is for sale as the NXR 160 Bros, bringing more modernity with the digital panel, electronic injection, disc brakes on both wheels and, obviously, a larger displacement. We also don't have ABS, Ride Modes or Clutch Assist, but the bike is a top seller in the segment, a darling.

I bought one back in January 2020, just before the lockdowns here in the Philippines. The first thing I did was to add a plastic fender at the rear part of the front mudguard, in order to avoid getting so much mud on the engine. I also lowered the front mudguard by an inch. Then I installed a 27mm carburator, and a big bore cylinder kit, making it 183cc. I also removed the rubber on top of the air filter box to allow more flow. A metal skid plate was also mounted, together with some fancy hand protectors. Not many longer trips were done due to the strict lockdowns, but I really loved the bike and took it out on local roads - also dirt roads. The rubber on the foot rest was quickly destroyed due to me standing on them, so you are smart to just remove those rubbers from the very start. Me and my wife made a couple of challenging trips on very bad roads, and of course carrying a passenger and a top bag of hard plastic limits the ability for real hard off road driving. We crossed some large rivers, and it is amazing both on and off road. If you are planning on going off road with this bike, I suggest you put a smaller front sprocket. Standard is 17T, when going on really challenging trails, I put a 14 or 15T on it (kept them under the seat so I could change quickly). The tires were changed into some more knobby ones at around 9000 km, as I really like to drive on difficult paths. However, the original tires are great for both on and off road, so no worries. I sold it last February due to travelling for a longer period, but when I am back for a longer period I dream of getting myself another one of these lovely vehicles that will last and last and last...

And way better of road (stock tire XR vs noisy big block tires on the Grom) and the lower grunt speed in first.

My first 150 miles was almost entirely wot. Because it was in a different town to get it and only one road to it. 55-65 all the way home😂

Subscribed, just picked up my xr yesterday. I have ridden many bikes, mostly larger KLRs, Gs, Dr. I am really looking forward to see what this bike will do and hopefully the aftermarket will have. Great video, small takes me back to my first bikes back in the 70's and 80's.

This "little" bike has an almost indestructible air-cooled engine & has stood the test of times in numerous foreign markets so Honda changes the muffler(emissions) & went for a slice of market share for a less affluent audience. This market has been here the whole time but hey, what about all the folks coming across the borders ; they will know this bike better than we know it so smart move Honda! I'm looking at it too, put on a bike rack style lift on my RV & let it rip. Thanks for the video

Nice job!!! Thats real life baby! Exactly how riding looks - should I - shouldn't I ?!?!?! Lov it

The XR 150l is basically a souped-up mini bike for adults. It's got just enough fit to make it street legal without all the other bells and whistles that can go wrong. Keeping it simple and lightweight is the best thing for an all-around trail bike that can fairly easily be put in the back of a pickup and taken out to or driven to the trails. Because this bike has been out for years overseas, it has plenty of aftermarket support, so you can customize it to fit your own needs. Plus, it's dirt cheap.

haha the small bikes amazes me sometimes. The army in my country uses something similar to this bike, the yamaha ag200 for the scouts. the bike had a full crash bar set with the field pack, radios, and out rifles, and it's still trucking along. not fast by any means but it keeps tucking on with little problems 😂😂

Was planning on getting a grom or z125 but then this bike came to the states and now I'm thinking it's the bike for me. Great video! Couple years ago I bought a pair of steel series wireless headphones with aftermarket ear cups which I love. I purchased em after watching a bunch of videos that I think you made. That or you have a twin.... Thank you if it was you! 😂

Hello Bro! New sub here from the Philippines. I really enjoyed your narration.

The clutch on mine drives me crazy too. It only seems to grab on the very end of the release. I too think the XR150L did really well in Arizona desert sand. I'm a total noob on sand being from PA so I'm relearning everything. My first tank was 172 miles then switched to reserve when it died in traffic. 30 miles was off-road.

I got my XR150 on June 30th. They got their July shipment early. I've got 450 miles on it already. The speedometer is off this much: 30 mph is really 32 mph, 35 on the speedo is really 38 mph, 40 on the speedo is really 44 mph, 45 mph is really 50, 50 is really 55, 55 is really 60. Wish I could remark the speedometer to match the needle! lOL. And with the speedo being driven off the front wheel, changing your gear ratio won't affect the speedometer like it does the modern bikes. It sure is a lot of fun to ride and goes fast enough for the secondary roads in NM. It tops out 55 on the speedo or 60 mph in real life. But it cruises nice at 50 on the speedo (55 mph). But there's not much left on the throttle and you need to be on pretty flat roads without a lot of headwind. With a little headwind it's hard to hold 50 on the speedo. It will never get the predicted 124 mpg. I got 87 mpg on the first tank and 94 on the second tank. I'd like to see it break 100 mpg but it will probably only do that if you are putting around at 30-40 mph.

Best XR150L video I have seen yet. Great insights and perspective. I think this would be perfect for a fun, low cost bike for cruising around the endless dirt and backroads of the MI’s Upper Peninsula where I live. I want to throw a leg over one but my local dealer is asking 5k for one they have in stock and that’s a hard no. Hopefully they come back to their senses. 😆

I know your bike can be had in either black or white but I think the black looks much better than the white color scheme. Nice choice.

I want your honest opinion I'm thinking about picking one of these up my wife doesn't want me to ride anymore I've been all a motorcycle for many years but still can ride when I say that I mean I still know how to use a clutch and everything because I've had four wheelers all the way up until recently. I was diagnosed with cancer and the doctors wanted me to sell the four wheelers they didn't want me to get hurt and screw up all the surgeries I had. The urge to ride is still there I just want to bike to make the little short trips around my house no more than three or four miles at a time. What would you think about a guy in my size at 6'2 260 lb buying a small bike like this I'm not worrying about top speeds as long as I can get it around 45 for my size that's plenty for the little bit of errands I do nowadays. If I seen off-road it would be light gravel no mud but like I said it would be something to leave the car at home and just take a short trip to my local Walgreens or pick up a couple grocery items at Walmart both a four mile round trip from the house on Pavement

use trip A or Trip B. Full tank will get you 285 miles. As for gear indicator, use the engine sound and feel as gear indicator. You'll get used to the engine sound what gear you are in. Experience using this bike will get you what you need.

Great for a teen or as a 2nd/3rd bike .

Great video , it's like you can't really go wrong with a Honda , I'll bet you could drop it off a cliff (into dirt) and ride it away , what a great inexpensive way to get into a whole bunch of fun...
