The XR650L is a dual-sport motorcycle manufactured by Honda, part of the Honda XR series. It was released in 1992 as a 1993 model. It combines the RFVC engine from the proven NX650 Dominator dual sport with the lighter, off-road capable XR600R chassis(this is incorrect the "L" frame is steel the "R" frame is alloy, suspensions are completely different as well), which is not road legal in the US. It has been produced virtually unchanged since 1993.
The engine is an air-cooled 644 cc (39.3 cu in) SOHC, dry-sump, single-cylinder, four-stroke. With an electric starter, headlight, taillight, turn signals, mirrors, US EPA and California Air Resources Board (CARB) compliant exhaust system, and a 2.8-US-gallon (11-litre; 2.3-imperial-gallon) fuel tank, the 650L has a 349 lb (158 kg) wet weight.[1] The seat height is 37 inches (940 mm).
