Yes, the XR650L has been a familiar part of Honda's lineup for many years, but there's a reason the tried-and-true dual-sport model continues to be popular with customers. The XR650L is highly adaptable, opening the door to adventure on single-track trails, dirt roads and backroads, while also delivering capable transportation in the city. The result of those characteristics – plus a proud Baja heritage – is a diehard following of riders, who will be pleased to know that the model has received an aesthetic facelift for the 2022 model year.
