XR650L lives on !

[lonerider]

Honda has decided to bring back the XR650L. From the press release:

05/02/2011
In truth, the XR650L has grown to become a legend in its own time—and for good reason. Whether the road ahead holds dirt roads, single-track trails, highways or byways, the XR650L serves as the key that opens the door to riding adventures and good times. For years, devotees of the XR650L have trusted this do-it-all mount to transport them to all kinds of far-flung destinations and back again. And for 2012, the much-beloved XR650L returns to accomplish all kinds of two-wheeled missions once more.

New for 2012

Since Honda skipped 2010 and 2011 year models, they will have to wait for the 2014 model to put out a "20th year anniversary edition". That's assuming they have don't skip 2013.

Anyone have a color scheme they would like to see on the anniversary model ?

I like the idea of Black and Gold.

hey everyone, been awhile since i been on, i had to get rid of my xr650 it was a great bike. but now that i have been stationed down here in augusta georgia it really really hard to find an xr650l.. here you can only ride dual sports if they were designed to be on the road you cant just title anything like in az. :( ya it really sucks in that factor.. I would have like to go a xr650r to ride back and forth on post but you cant and trying to find a used xr650l is almost like winning the lottery down here. take care all
