Honda XR650L Dual sport
I rode one of these yesterday for about 50 miles, on highway at 75-80 and on some dirt and grass trails also, got pretty aggressive with it through some twisties on pavement also...
My friends got a pair of them that have both been souped up pretty well
I haven't had this much fun on a bike in a long time...thing is for sure a wheelie monster......and I had no idea one of these handled as well through the corners on pavement as they do.......
The seating position feels like I'm riding a high chair (33inches seat hieght) compared to my bike...
Anyway, I've been talking supermoto (DRZ400SM) to this guy and he just wanted me to get a taste of what a dual sport is like since it's also pretty capable off road as well, I haven't been on anything but a street bike since high school so don't really have a frame of reference for these type of bikes but this one was a blast.......
Me likey and want a dual-Sport now, want to take it down to Big Bend National Park....:biglaugh:
