The engine’s power is paired with a six-speed transmission, allowing it to tackle a variety of terrains efficiently. The XL600 features a robust frame and long-travel suspension, which provide excellent handling and stability on rough trails. Its comfortable seat and practical design make it suitable for long-distance rides as well as everyday commuting. The bike’s design incorporates a large fuel tank and durable components, emphasizing its practicality for adventurous riders. With its balanced performance and enduring build quality, the Honda XL600 remains a beloved choice among dual-sport enthusiasts and collectors.
The 1987 Honda XL600R on offer here was recently liberated from a Pasadena, California enthusiast, who owned the car since the late 1980s, and is presented in good overall and very original condition. A 45bhp model, it features fully adjustable WP (White Power) rear shock and re-valved forks with uprated springs, at a cost of $2000. It exhales through a Supertrapp exhaust, and in its recent service received a new chain and sprockets, new air and filters, with fresh oil and a thorough service including a valve check and adjustment as needed. Now in fine running condition, the bike is fast, as can be seen in the video below. It is being sold on a clean, clear California title with current registration, owner’s manual and substantial file of receipts.
