Hope you guys enjoyed this one! I am still very happy with this Honda XR150L and have put over 500 miles on it. With some slight mods, it can become and extremely versatile dual sport/stunt bike/commuter bike. What do you guys think of it????

That game is trash
I do like the bike & I found some other info that you might or might not know? "TheManoy66" is a channel here that boasts
of having other Honda bikes that have parts that are interchangeable? I find that interesting as the current suspension is a
little bit, "lacking"? He's in one of the nations that have had the 150 for years do it's a well proven bike but like I said, he's on
YT & there are 1-2 bikes that you can grab a better front end off of(forks) & the wheels if you wanted but having the forks &
rear shock would give a considerable boost in comfort/control. If you still own/ride her this info might be of interest to you
as it was to me? Knowing this might sell me on the bike but we'll soon see? peace man
Those bike are super popular in South America. They can run 60000 miles without any trouble if you take care.
One cool thing about that engine is the bottom end is beefy, has big bearings and strong rod compared to another 150cc. So you will see drag racers strocking up to 220-240cc and getting like 35-40hp
A really popular "every day" mod is 190cc cylinder (athena), a good 28mm carb (no china crap) , ignitec cdi, cams and exhaust that give you like 25hp reliable. You can source that components form Brazil will not be very expesive to you.
@the_trashman I think the CRF250F fit that your needs. Modern suspensión and chasis with a simple 250cc aircooled single cam engine
Honda source the engine of that model to make the Honda New Twister 250cc For Latam that bike is like the toyota Corolla in US. You will see lots of those on the road with over 50000km still going strong.
i was literally looking for mods everywhere, checked this video and saw your comment
So many people go into bad debt for vehicles when they could own a really cheap motorcycle like this one. $3k could totally get most people to work and running the tasks of their daily lives. I'm glad to see Honda has done so much to address this market.
Totally agree. Nothing about this bike is performance based but it can do just about everything. Great bike to fall back on if you don’t have much money and just need something reliable and capable
@@TwoStrokeJ I got rid of my triple digit HP bikes and now only own a '76 RD400 and the XR. It's more fun to go fast a slower bike than slow on a faster bike.
@@RedBud315 Learned to ride on an RD350 at 14 years old. Not sure how I lived through that time in my life.
@@shoechew My 1st bike was a bone stock RD250 and then a year later bought a full race prepped RD350(very well built engine , clip-ons, rear sets, headlight, tail light and tach) and it was like day and night. Keeping the front wheel on the ground in the 1st three gears was almost impossible when on the pipe. Mulholland Drive was my friends and my playground. During summer vacation we rode all night long because we could see headlights coming the other way and knew when we could use the entire road. All that practice paid off as when I did a 24 HR endurance race at Willow I ended up being 5 seconds a lap faster than my 4 other team mates at night. They were so happy they let me do back to back stints which made me happy, lol.
Sadly it's not viable for 7 months of the year in northern climates that get tons of ice and 200 inches of snow.
The Xr 150 was my first bike, I bought it brand new in 2018 and did +15000 miles on it without any single problem, incredibly reliable bike :) Greetings from Argentina!!
That’s awesome man! Excited to see how far I can push mine!
Flow Argentino paaaa
@@petybor Maquinon ;)
“ for me doing wheelies is extremely important” 😂 I felt that
Idk why it just is 😂
Well yeah.
💯 true!
content is always top tier, stop sleeping on the uploads WE NEED MORE BRO
I know!!! It's the biggest thing I want to achieve too is more frequent uploads, but damn these videos take so much time and effort to make its insane haha.
Quality over quantity. You’re nailin it
@@TwoStrokeJchop chop movie man.
Yo these videos are too sick. What mic do you use? The audio is mint.
@@TwoStrokeJ
Nice vid, I have moved from the states to Asia about 15 years ago, after growing up in USA. I use to think 600cc was small....Well i have been on 150 cc Asian bikes for a while now, obviously they don't work for USA high ways and such, but for side roads they are absolutely awesome machines. First thing is simple physics, at about 250 lbs....they rock. Here in Indonesia a nice 150 is $2300-2500 out the door. Your XR is cool, I think its south American bike. We have better, CRF150L, fuel injected, inverted forks, disc brakes all around, digital dash........all for $2300. Anyways, awesome wheelies, enjoy the bike.
thanks man! The more I get into motorcycling as well, the more I am coming to appreciate lower powered bikes! Not sure what it is but they just call to me
This kinda bike is pretty much what everyone uses in south America. I hope manufacturers start bringing more of these in.
Yea man they are huge every where else so it’s cool to see them in America!
Just under $4100 OTD in Indiana. Jetted to 115. Plastic skid plate. Kimimoto rack bag. Upgraded horn. Cell phone holder. Over 100mpg. 700 miles currently. Very happy with it...even without the wheelies.😊
I think I need to upjet mine and let some more air flow into the air box
If jetted and re-geared to go 75mph I would buy this as a back road weekend cruiser , and a drive to work in a pinch bike, bug out in an emergency bike, but I have to hop on the freeway for a bit to make it to work, no way around it , and in Texas 70-75mph on the freeway is bare minimum, like slow lane , so it would have to go just a bit faster.
My fat butt only gets me 75 MPH but, happy with that. I think the Honda accessories don't appear that good. I bought a killer steel skid plate with crash bars to protect the cases from the Ukraine for $110 including $35 shipping. It uses the engine mounting bolt and clamps around the frame on both sides. The plastic Honda plate costing about $99 looks like an after thought.
Who did you buy your skid plate and crash bars from?
@@johnjames5842 I think I have read were someone went down 1 tooth in the front to help it in 4th and 5th gear. Doesn't give you more top speed but, helps maintain the higher speed in those gears. I did that for my RD400 and it paid off for me.
I placed an order for mine last fall. Dealer called me today and said they are finally getting shipped in a few weeks.
Brooo I can’t believe you got a 150L this is like the BEST “cheap” bike you can buy here in Argentina, our economy is a kinda struggling so I thought these cheap bikes would never be seen in the US having the opportunity of buying as many japanese bikes as you have, enjoy the XR great vid!!!! You’ll definitely will manage to get amazing wheelies & tricks by practicing on it ! 😎😎
thank you man! I love the bike style that south america and places overseas have so I was excited to get on one of these
When you gotta slide something over something like grips or that little shifter sock, use a blower nozzle with the air compressor to help get it on easy. The burst of air will stretch the rubber for you as you slide.
I've seen this trick before, looks super helpful! Need to get me an air compressor
so glad to see other people stoked on this bike, I also think its the perfect around town bike, I hope I might be able to get it as my first road legal bike
Yeah, I agree, get a USED 200-250 cc for a good starter bike. You can get them hella cheap in the winter! $1500 for a bike with like 1-2k miles on it. For your first ride, go to a LARGE grass field, I mean ACRES of nothing but smooth grass. Watch "whisky throttle" videos and don't drive your bike into your neighbors camper.
@@shadrach5681 ha, winter, i live in florida lol, and ik how to ride, ive ridden a ninja 500 before, i need to learn how to ride in traffic but in terms of bike control i got the basics
Best bike I ever owned never broke down always started , never serviced , excellent trooper never misses a beat Honda xr125L variant uk 🇬🇧
HAWK 250 $1,400 in Amazon, XR150L $2,971 was very expensive
I was cracking upppp man this TwoStrokeJ guy really just does what he wants and doesn't care what other ppl think. When I grow up I wanna be like him, you could really tell he was in his zone this video right up his alley wit it
Bruh 💀
@@TwoStrokeJ lmao
I sold my grom and have been eyeballing this hard since it came out as a replacement, was waiting for a video like this to come out. I’m subscribing, can’t wait to see more of this
Awesome to hear man! I'm glad you enjoyed it! If you want something similar to the speeds of a grom but honestly just more capable, I think this bike is perfect
Did you end up getting the xr150l?
Love it Jay, I'm surprised you took the studs out of those footpegs! Had the same kind on my bike and loved the extra grip for wheelies
thanks man! I think the studs were just too aggressive for the shoes I normally wear haha felt like they were ripping apart the soles haha. If I had some thicker riding boots or something they would be perfect.
I just got thru talking mine off after seeing it done on video.
@@TwoStrokeJ fair enough man whatever makes you comfy haha, I usually ride in sneakers and they made a world of difference for knee knockers cause I could drop back without my foot falling off the brake, I'm on the shorter side tho so that's probably the real issue 😅
I've bought a couple $20 carbs in my day. Actually I know pretty much every Chinese carb you can buy. Here's a lil nugget of info, an easier way to get the throttle cable out of the slide than using needle nose pliers, all you do is literally grab the slide in one hand and the top cap in the other hand and push them towards each other compressing the spring and then the cable will pop out the bottom of the slide and you can kinda push the cable over with your finger so it will align in that little slot. Work smart not hard.
That was very thorough. Great job presenting this bike! Those wheelies at the end were awesome!
About 4,250 miles on ours. Great bike so far. Expect 50-55 max for a cruise speed.
Yep love mine too!
Simple and reliable that’s all we need, I want one
@@deborahchesser7375 and why we bought em! Simple, cheap, good, fun!
Thats really really slow....
@@lifeononeweel3008 Yep, but not bad for a 150cc bike.
I got the CRF150L which are a couple hundred more than the XR, got 3500k on it been an ok little bike so far. Got like 300 km out of the first tank. There are all kinds of oversized engine parts for them out of Indonesia where they are made, a full titanium Norifumi exhaust is like $306.
An exhaust set up would be sweet
I was waiting for a video on this bike man, hell yeah! Perfect vid again
thanks so much bro!
I picked up a Suzuki DR200 enduro. So light and nimble it’s perfect for city riding and goofing around on when you see a little trail around. Dirt cheap on gas too. I’ve had big bikes but this one is my favourite
Congrats on the new bike! I was wondering how tall you were cause honestly the small bikes like the money or the grom are really fun and quick then they need to be. But love your content! Keep having run, keep riding on and keep uploading!
Thanks man!! I’m 5’10” pretty much and this bike is perfect, not too small not too big
Excellent review buddy! Wife just bought me this for Christmas. Almost bought the Grom, glad she didn’t. Cool review, kept it clean and fun. Good job mister.
Got mine a few weeks ago, 3500 OTD in Columbia SC. Same with me, first brand new vehicle I've ever purchased.
Great little beginner bike, loving it so far!
Carolina Honda? I sat on one of these there today. I was wondering how bad their fees would be.
@@DavidG-wv2nb Only about 500 bucks last year, and that was without any incentives going on. They seem to be fair over there.
@pbase36 yeah they don't mark things up to the moon, I bought a 23 Ruckus there in August of 2022 (one of the first 23s) which had a MSRP of $2899 if I remember correctly. Out the door was roughly 3300. I hated having to pay so much for a scooter, but with a suspended license at the time and due to gas prices skyrocketing that year, used ones were few and far between so I did what I had to do
Here in Philippines We upgrade The Carburetor. The only carburetor that can compatible with is the Honda TMX 155 Carburetor. If you want to buy OEM just order in the Philippines.
TMX 155 and XR150 is very popular here in Philippines
Greetings from Paraguay. Here these are very popular dirtroad commuters. For that I highly recommend swapping in an 21 inch front wheel. It takes small bumps way better and that's apparently how they were designed. The South american Version is assembled with an 19 inch front for it's quicker turn in and better suited for asphalt. That's what Brazil (biggest market) wants from their city commuters.
Yea man, thanks for the info! I off-roaded it recently and it performed amazing. I’m sure it would benefit from the bigger wheels and some nice tires though!
Here's a Great upgrade speaking from someone whwas obsessed with wheelstanding anything with 2 wheels and a motor wear your riding gear man eventually the skin on your extremities eg : palms, elbows, knees, hips, butt gets thin and takes forever to heal riding in shorts with no cups on is for nubes . Happy Trails mate play it cool and you can ride for a long long time
What a fantastic motorcycle. I had the Indian version of the same named “ hero impulse” and the engine was from a Honda. Do check it out. My major use was at the trails and at the dirt track. Do try getting a high lift cam, a quick throttle and a nice exhaust and the character of the motorcycle changes. I was running the same setup. And yes, these are extremely reliable. Cheers and ride safe!
actually with good gas mileage and incredible reliability this thing is a great buy
I swapped in the PZ 27 carb almost immediately, no more cold start issues. Didn't have to pull the tank, but I understand that the NA model has a different cable that has to be replaced to allow different carbs.
yea that's the same carb I used but I had to install a new throttle cable
Been riding mine for 6 straight years, its my everyday commuter bike.
Venom or Lifan KPX 250! Honda clone engine, 20 hp and 20 torque. $3200.00 delivered to your door.
I'm 6ft 265lbs. It takes me anywhere I want to go. Been riding cruisers for 20 years. This bike got me off the black top and I'm hooked.
this video went crazy! love your content
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it
😂thanks, you’ve just restored my faith in UA-cam, so many reviewers out there try and be sooo serious and basically just regurgitate what every other channel says about a new model it’s obvious they’re just try-hards with no clue. Being yourself is all that you can do - Chris Cornell.
got one of those , in 125cc build 07. honda engines especially the smaller ones are nearly indestructible, but my 80cc 2stroke dt yamaha has a much bigger powerband and eats the hionda alive. this honda is very realiable and best for bigger tours, i will ride mine throu europe.
My YSR 50 pit bike I had in '87 that was street legal did 50 MPH stock and 70 after going from 16 to 22 carb, K&N filter, D&D pipe(my bike was used for 1st D&D proto-type) and gearing change. I went from barely lifting the front wheel in 2nd to doing wheelies all the way down the block.
My tactic as a young man in the early 80s was to establish an account with a small independent bank. Save up 50% of the msrp of the bike I wanted and approach the bank for the balance on credit. I'd then offer the dealer 10% below retail in cash day of purchase... and make payments 35% over the premium to pay it down within the model year. That way depreciation didn't bite my butt if I wanted to sell it sooner than I thought I would.
fun video and great editing, that was fun to watch
That’s high praise, I’m glad you enjoyed it man!
It's only $2000 in the Philippines and almost every uncle in rural areas has it😂
i wish they bring it to sell in Thailand
i have an XT125R Yamaha. Almost the same bike, i think with same power, i just can't get it to wheelie. It's my main bike, so i don't want to dump it, but when i get another i'll break this baby in two. Practice makes perfect i guess.
These bikes are great for some light off-road and under 80km/h roads. So much fun.
yea they are man! I love mine so far
I own one of these for 8 years now, and that thing is almost undestructable, its a perfect beater
that's what I've heard about them! We will see if mine can take a beating for that long haha
I really really want an XR150L for Commuting and Dirt Biking. While I won't be able to use the 401, it'll be perfect for riding up the 90km/h road to my work and back, as well as hitting some trails. It'll be a perfect first Motorcycle as I yet to even have my license. It's also really light so I can haul it on the back of my small SUV or Minivan with a Motorcycle rack with no issues
Bought one a couple months ago, in Jacksonville,N.C. Great bike. Bought it from Lejeune Motorsports, in Jacksonville, by the time they padded the bill, $ 4300.00. They have the market cornered here, they charge premium for everything. Oh well.
Love my bike and i am looking to do the same carburator swap. Are you planning on doing a tutorial about the swap. Which original parts did you use from it?? You just gained another sub!!
I agree 100% with you about all this high tech bikes of nowadays. Too much BS technologies, too many things to be broken and give you headaches. This is the real deal right there. Really cool 4 strokes old school Honda bike !!! Nice, reliable, simple and fun. Enjoy it bro you got yourself a great bike.
The Honda xr creates loyal riders for life. It happened to me at 9 years old.
I took our xr150 for a 600km roadtrip and it was fun! Rode it though sand and hills too recommend gearing it up though
I’m currently driving a 650cc street bike but I wanna hit some trails. Not into grabbing a dirt bike and making it road legal -so I’m grabbing a dual sport. Getting the KLX300 for myself but I’m looking at an XR150L for my spouse to get them into bikes on something comfy, smooth and easy. Plus, never messed with carbs before because I’m a newer rider and most bikes have EFI. It’ll be nice to learn how to fiddle with even more parts so maybe one day I’ll feel comfortable with restoring an older bike -which has been a lifelong dream of mine.
Yea man, the 150 will be perfect for her. And if she is riding it it will be perfect stock, I only messed with the carb because I’m trying to do wheelies haha
In South Africa the cheapest decent bike is Hero Eco 150 trail previously (Hero Honda) is about half XR 150 price and Hero Xpulse 200 similar price to XR 150. Made in India and only sold in Asia, Africa and South America by agreement with Honda... I am very happy with my Hero 150 TR (trail)
great video yet again, love to see it
JRN my guy thank you!
Your mid video advertisement was well done. Made me chuckle you acknowledged everyone is sponsored by Raid shadow legends haha. Get that money jay!!! 🖤
Hope it didn’t disrupt the video too much haha thanks tho!
take a hamer with a long screw driver and hit inside of the exhaust...do it then test the sound until you reach the perfect tone...trust me its worth trying
yea I've seen a lot of people take the baffle completely out of the muffler on these. Apparently you can make a little but more power that way
Iron Pony in Westerville. Nice!
Cant wait for the next one! Lovin it!
thanks man!!!
Hi men! Congrats on your new bike! This is a really popular bike were i´m from, Argentina, and really all south america. I can tell you men that honda xr150 is tough, at least its engine, it can take a lot of abuse and the gearbox is indestructible. Here its pretty common to make it 190cc, they sell 190 kits wiht cylinder, piston and flat slide carburetor....keep it going, love your channel!
Thanks man! And I can see why it’s so popular there! I have really enjoyed mine so far
If you want it to last, change the oil after break in period then after 100mi and again after another 100 to flush any metal flakes from machining.
I just bought a second hand one almost new with less that 2000km in Argentina and paid U$S2000 for it. Amazing bike
honda started to sell the XR 190 in Cost Rica a couple of years ago and its has the F.I system, a pretty sick 15 hp bike
those are real good engines, just be sure to check the oil level after every ride. that honda engine likes to drink a lot of it. i had a honda cg titan 150 that has the same engine as the xr 150, and she had an addiction for oil, but if you just check it, you will be okay
Thanks for the vid, bike looks sweet. Can you do a video on how to do wheelies? You make that look easy
I have an old one but I really should make an updated one
@@TwoStrokeJ I think I've seen your old one. But you make the 150 look so easy, I can't lift up a small cc for the life of me. Maybe I need to cut some food out...
This bike was tested to its limits when I got it. Its so durable.
Agreed
Ahh tennis shoe problems on motorcycle you know most pegs are like that because it is strongly recommended to where boots with some kind of low heel like cowboy boots so the rolling shifter and the small foot pegs wouldn't be a problem if you where to wear proper foot protection
My memory is that I was quoted (in Pennsylvania) an OutTheDoor final cost of $4,300. They tacked on assembly, set-up, etc etc etc The "less than $3,000" is bogus. At that point, I opted to get an old bike (with very low mileage) and make a scrambler for a little less than half the $4,300.
pretty much same like my 2009 xr and I like to see someone buy and make video about it
bros already getting them double ads before the vid, THE ALGORITHM IS PUSHING YOU MAN
I like the sound of that!!! Thanks for the support bro!
I’m 18 rn but 3 years ago the xr150l is literally my first bike
Love the new content! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love you for supporting!!!!
@@TwoStrokeJ I love you for making sick content and creating mad builds!! 👊👊👊
Love the bike man we used to have the Hero Honda Impulse 150 when Hero and Honda used to collab here in India i even owned one but a secondhand one good mileage plus super comfy!!
Yea man they make a bunch of great smaller cc bikes!
Would like to see a modify that on the XR 125 you know see what kind of modified parts you can get for the motor and the rest of the bike maybe a cool exhaust as well
loving the connor price track in the backround... lols
Thanks man! Me too
Awesome video 🤙🏼
Thank you man!
hey man ive been subscribe for very long and i loved your tomos series and i have been restroing my tomos and just wantet to ask which gas throttle do you have on it. Love the work and keep it up!
Great video! You should look into getting a cool lil minibike like the Jawa Stella or a Suzuki PV, they are so much fun :D I just don't know how you could register them in the US because no pedals and all that, and I dont think they were imported to the US either.
Ill check them out, that would be really sick to mess around on
Yo bro I love the video I just may have to get one and do the exact same upgrades thank you
LOL as soon as you start filming in the car a Mtn Dew truck drives through the background. I found that very appropriate for a dirt bike video.
Right on brothaaa do the dewww
I have a 2006 BMW F650gs I bought off Craigslist for $3,000. I love it, but at 430lbs, it's hard for my 58 year old, cancer surviving body to off-road/ trail ride. Something like this would be great as a second bike. It would be easy to carry on my mini vans hitch carrier also. No trailer needed. Edit - I never wheelie.
I get it, and I would love to ride an XR150. But now I don't feel so badly about having "overpaid" $2,000 for a KL250g Super Sherpa 6spd with 5.3k miles, or overpaid $2,000 for an XT225 6spd with 12k miles. And before think too much about an XR150, I have a $1,600 TW200 5spd with
1 minute 43 seconds in and I'm already a fan! You are driving a Honda to go pick up a Honda
I'm a Honda guy LOL I hope you have a Honda lawn mower at home too😅
Very cool man. Seat time will get you some talent, and that goes a long ways, it’s not always the bikes fault, like I say, and was obvious in your video, “The bike can do it, can you?”
We own a farm there is pothols everywhere cuz we had bad rain. Most roads are gone cuz of the rivers. But Thus bike is amazing. Feels like a endoro bike when you go offraod
Yep I love mine!
Breaking in an engine is crucial to its lifetime, normally you would drive half RPM and half throttle for the first 1000km or 600 miles, then change the oil and gruadually increase the throttle an rpm from there . Also breakes and tyres normally need to break in about 100km )60 miles) before the get peak performance
Is that really the case with modern engines? I feel like break in was more relevant before modern machining tolerances, and precision cylinder sleeves and coatings.
@@thedanyesful Yes, still very important. A lot shorter lifespan, if not broken in properly.
I have an 2024 Honda XR190L in Honduras. Fuel injected and slightly more powerful than the 150. Out the door $3400 in Central America. Its only rival there is the Suzuki GN125E, but the Suzuki has range restrictions, the Honda no, not on CA roads. It wouldn't make it on I95, it is about perfect for CA.
The perfect XR150 video doesn’t exi- 😳
So dope dude! I honestly expected you to have waayyy more subs with quality like that! So rad seeing someone wheelie these things proper too 🤘🏻
much respect man I appreciate the kind words!! First got interested in this bike from your videos so looks like we have gone full circle haha
@@TwoStrokeJ yooo no way, that’s sick!! Full circle indeed. Maybe one day we’ll get to ride and you can show me how to stand this thing up 😂🤘🏻
@LifeOfBurch it’s definitely not the easiest bike to do it on haha takes some persistence to get it up to balance point
Thanks for this video, very fair assessment of this bike.
Glad you enjoyed it man
Noting about this bike is under 3k in the US. Ridiculous mark up because they can compared to the rest of the world. I bought a Lifan KPX 250 instead for under 3k and I’m loving it.
That intro was amazing
hahah thanks man!
53 seconds in ….this guy knows how to put a vid together!! New sub bro 😎
means a lot man! Thanks for the support!
Absolute legend🙌
right back at you sir
I have an 85 XL600 but im looking into getting something smaller, and i have been eyeballing the new xl line. If i can get some pre 90's xl plastics this could be a sexy beast to commute on.
That would be sick. And yea I think it’s the perfect commuter if you don’t need to ride highway
Carburetors are actually 1930's technology. Germans started using fuel injection on it's fighter planes in the early 1940's to prevent them from losing fuel when the planes were climbing and diving. So yeah, the DRZ is a dinosaur.
damn haha that's even worse than I thought!
If you want just the plain dirtbike look for a used crf150f made from 2005 to 2016 i think. I could be wrong. It has the same horsepower and weight
A la mía le adapté una suspensión de Crf 250x y un faro de Xr 250 tornado y les cambié la iluminación alógena a iluminación LED. Otras modificaciones mínimas pero respetando su mecánica básica que es lo que me gusta.
La utilizo para un "off road" suave donde puedo manejar sin la presión de acelerar demasiado y poder mirar los sitios que visito mientras manejo. Mucha diversión por poco dinero.
Saludos desde Colombia.
What carburetor did you replace it with? Did it improve the speed as well?
The CT 125 brings some nice newer bits to the table but, I really don’t think you can beat this XR 150. The other one would be the TW 200. Best overall bang for the buck.
love it, this bike actually looks sick. When will there be something again to the Puch maxi and do you plan to build a foot brake on the puch maxi in the future?
I'm saving up to do a full engine rebuild to get the maxi going again really soon. I plan on it being my next project, I'm excited for it
The Honda XR150L is currently $1,588.00 USD in Negros, Philippines, as of Oct, 2023. (Helmet, registration for 3 yrs with Insurance, included, Wow) Just bought one, been On and Off road, it's a FUN TOY..!!!
I agree it’s super fun!!! Crazy how they inflate the price for the USA market though!
My new xr 150 is great. Started doing wheelies in 71, in 73, bought my first real bike, a 71 R5 350 Yamaha, wheelied all the time, got tickets, all the time. Now, got 3 vtwin cruisers, the xr,and an 06 R1. My front wheel comes up 1 ", cops are right there. Oh well, guess it's time to slow down a bit.
A Yamaha rd350 has been a bike I’ve wanted for a long time. Some day I’ll ride one of those
we need more videos on this bike bro
