Honda XR650L Supermoto

After getting some seat time on the xr650l Supermoto, I have to say this thing is a tank. It has an insane amount of torque in the thumper catagory to this day, considering it has not seen an update in nearly 30 years. The Supermoto conversion helps for more responsive steering and completely changes the characteristics of the bike. Was a blast to rip and get comfortable riding! Thanks for watching!

My buddy had one of these, it might be old with old tech but I still really liked it. It has character to it and I think anyone that actually likes motorcycles could appreciate what this bike is. Tons of torque but also heavy, really made for a fun bike on the street especially with the supermoto setup!

These old 90s/early 2000s bikes are where it’s at honestly

@jamespolucha8790 12 дней назад

I had one in the early 90s and beat it up then sold it, well I just got a 2024 and it’s the same bike just different color having too much fun riding it, I’ll keep this one

Im at a very very constant battle with myself to sell my 2001 xr250r for a bike i can make a supermoto as i cant find anything on these. Yet its also my fist bike. I really am curious if i can somehow turn it into a sm or if theres some secret set of wheels out there that are made for it

Hit up jeff at toxicmoto. Maybe he could lace some excel rims to oem hubs? Super cool guy he might be able to hook u up if not he can atleast tell yah if its possible! toxicmotoracing.com

@EvendimataE 9 месяцев назад

would be nice if they will make those with big seat adjustment....i want one but im only 5'8"

@Floatsorrolls1 9 месяцев назад

They sell lowered seats and lowering links . The supermoto conversion lowered the bike some too.

@johnnygeorgopoulos4072 9 месяцев назад

They sell lowering links, different springs, custom seat...you can easily drop anywhere from an inch to 1.5" with barely to no work, to 4" I've seen with all of the above including forks.

@zen8704 9 месяцев назад

im the other way from you... I want a Suzuki DR650 but they're too low to the ground, better for shorter riders, so I settled on getting an XR650L. You should check out the DR. might suit you better

I am only 6ft and i can flat foot both sides even though i only weigh 185, the suspension is really soft, it isn’t that bad

How did you make your speedometer works with the supermoto wheels?

@Floatsorrolls1 4 месяца назад

We got our supermoto wheels from procycle and when you buy through them they give you option to lace the 17” rims to oem hubs. This allows you to use the stock speedo. Note it will read roughly about 10-12% off but still operate as normal! Hope this helps and thanks for watching! procycle.us/model/honda/xr650l/wheels?v=3655

@Floatsorrolls hat is NOT THE PIG ! you re riding your dads XR650L and not the XR650R ! "the pig" is the XR650R ONLY two completely different bikes 0:20

@oogbigworm 3 месяца назад

Still trying to figure decide between a dr650 & xr650l or maybe drz400

@Floatsorrolls1 3 месяца назад

Tough decision for sure all great bikes! If you got any questions about the Xr feel free to ask! 😎🤘🏼 thanks for watching!

@oogbigworm 3 месяца назад

@@Floatsorrolls1 thanks appreciate it. I’ve always leaned towards the Xr more because I actually like the higher seat height. I hear people say u need to get an oil cooler. Do you have an oil cooler?

@Floatsorrolls1 3 месяца назад

@@oogbigworm we do not have an oil cooler and haven’t had a issue. I dont think an oil cooler is a must atleast from our experience. (Spirted driving and a wheelies)We havent had a need for one. Seat height is nice especially if you supermoto convert it. Still comfortable height for my dad at 6’4”.

@griffenatekevinbacon 2 месяца назад

@@Floatsorrolls1 i was just about to ask cause im 6’2 almost 6’3 without boots on. But i loved the drz400sm as far as power wise is the xr better for highway usage as a bigger guy?

@Floatsorrolls1 2 месяца назад

@@griffenatekevinbacon we don’t do any highway riding mostly back country roads. Cant say forsure how itd be long distance on a highway but it certainly would get buzzy going over 75-80mph atleast with how we have dads xr650l geared.

@SoCalTwistyHunter 11 месяцев назад

Hello, what sprockets are you running?

@Floatsorrolls1 11 месяцев назад

We are running stock sprocket size front and rear😎 is geared lower because of the small wheel size but works well!

@SoCalTwistyHunter 11 месяцев назад

Have you had a chance to open it up? Top speed?

@Floatsorrolls1 11 месяцев назад

@@SoCalTwistyHunter never got to gps test it, but speedo reads off cuz of supermoto wheels. Tops speed estimate low 90s mph. Anything above 80 gets a little buzzy lol

@SoCalTwistyHunter 11 месяцев назад

Thanks

@jaype331 Год назад

The 650 should have more power than the 450

@Floatsorrolls1 Год назад

About same from factory but with fuel correction and exhaust the 450 make a bigger leap and is significantly less weight. The 650 is a way better machine long term and a much better supermoto for around town riding.

@gymshoe8862 8 месяцев назад

You made one glaring mistake that almost everyone makes--you made it almost as loud as if it had no muffler at all in search of extra power but it is a fool's errand--you increase noise but gain a tiny bit of power, maybe none at all. The droning exhaust is irritating to the rider and all others nearby.

@Floatsorrolls1 8 месяцев назад

To each their own my friend. We are happy with how it sounds. Adding a exhaust does increase power on this bike if you rejet. Loud pipes saves lives 😂🤘🏼

@veselinmarinov8787 3 месяца назад

Kaplan cycles recently had a video on a built xr dyno runs with stock down pipe vs the big gun one and the engine lost 50% torque in the mid range with the aftermarket down pipe. Other than that sweet bike and nice riding on the twisties.
