The XR150L boasts a 32.4-inch seat height, which is reasonably tolerable for a dual sport. The telescopic fork delivers 7.1 inches of travel while the rear wheel has 5.9 inches of travel. The front wheel is fitted with a two-piston calliper while the rear has a drum brake. The gasoline tank carries 3.2 gallons, which is fairly huge compared to the CRF300L’s 2.1-gallon tank, and even the XR650L’s 2.8-gallon tank. Honda New Zealand reports a curb weight of 284 pounds.
Honda’s inclusion of these two dual-sport vehicles in its U.S. inventory is excellent news for off-road aficionados. The CRF300LS and XR150L provide a more controllable seat height and a variety of features that make them suited for both on and off-road excursions. With the 2023 lineup swiftly approaching, it’s probable that American Honda will reveal these cars shortly.
