Do you have the owners manual, does it have specs in it you can take a picture and post? I can't find the specs online to compare to the XR150L specs on XR150L: Boost Your Ride I have been looking at.
I saw that but it says it makes the same horsepower as the XR150l while other sites show 16+hp. It also shows it is belt driven automatic, which I am pretty sure is complete BS. I don't see a Reliable, Full Specs source that looks to be accurate is why I asked about the owners manual specs.
It looks like the XR200 had a separate production run several decades ago. The engine could have been redesigned recently with different specs for a production run in Asia/select countries (why you are seeing different specs listed for the same cc engine). Honda's official Philippines website doesn't even list the bike on their lineup. Maybe it is produced overseas with intent on being sold in a different market and imported by companies working outside of the Honda supply chain? Or maybe Honda Philippines just has their heads up their asses and their marketing department doesn't know what their production department is doing?
My Honda FES 125 scooter had a quite strong 125 cc engine with 10.1 kw/13.8 hp power. Therefore I'm somewhat surprised that the 200 cc engine from same manufacturer only have 12.2 hp.
Hi I'm the owner of this bike...the bike is being advertised through a friend of mine in dumaguette..I'm away on vacation at the moment but the bike will be available when I'm back in dumagette on 17 Jan. I'm leaving for the uk soon after that but the friend has power of attourney to sell the bike on my behalf if it is still up for sale after I leave. In answer to the question about the handbook, yes I do have the handbook but not with me...it's with the rest of the papers in dumaguette. My understanding and take about the xr200 vs xr125/150 is that the 200 is a far more rugged bike than the junior models. I rode an xr125 a year or so ago and it certainly doesn't feel as "grown up" as the 200..the 125 feels more like a road bike with a some off road concessions, the 200 on the other hand feels more like an off road bike with on road concessions...certainly in my opinion better suited to the philipine roads. Plus on top of that it has a more or less indestructible reputation...hence why honda made them for nigh on 40 years...and they're very easy to maintain! Anybody interested in buying the bike...I'll be back in dumagette on the 17th, and im willing to make arrangements before hand.
