Honda XR150 – The All Purpose Farm Bike
The All Purpose Farm Bike
Overview
The XR150 adds a new dimension to Honda’s proven farm range. For those that know off-road motorcycles, Hondas XR range is legendary. The XR150 replaces the tried and tested XR125 and features an all new larger, updated engine, with an offset crankshaft, roller rockers, a lighter piston and a redesigned oil cooling path to further increase reliability.
The XR150 engine also features a new balancer shaft to reduce vibration for much smoother running, a real bonus when you spend hours in the saddle. Power has been increased and the engine drives through a slick shifting 5 speed gearbox. The XR150 also has an exceptional 12-litre fuel tank so you can travel long distances around the farm. Its electric start makes life easy in all conditions, and it has impressively low gearing so you can go ultra-slow for moving cattle.
It is reliable, low maintenance and as a bonus it is also one of the few road registrable farm bikes. The XR150 also has a more comfortable seat, new modern dash, new headlight and updated bodywork. If you are looking for a durable, lightweight and nimble 2-wheel farm bike, look no further.
Features
The XR150 is at home on any farm and value for money this 2-wheel workhorse is hard to beat. Functional, durable and low maintenance is what you need on a working bike – and that is exactly what you get from the XR150. With a 12 litre tank you get plenty of kilometres between fills. The XR150 is designed with comfort in mind, rider friendly ergonomics make long hours riding less tiring, and a low seat height makes for easy dismounts.
The 149cc engine has a smooth power delivery, the five speed gearbox offers great flexibility and a powerful front disc brake aids handling. The electric start makes it easy to get things moving when you want to deal to those early morning jobs.
