Kit List for the Americas Motorcycle Journey - Lois Pryce

As the first part of this journey was in North America – the land of plenty, I decided to depart with just the basic necessities and to buy anything extra as and when I needed it. One area of equipment I elected to do without was cooking gear. I’m not particularly into cooking and was happy to eat the street food and local fruit, and occasionally knock up a sandwich if I had a culinary urge. My choice of clothing was basically what I wear on the bike here everyday in the UK with added thermal layers for Alaska and lightweight items for the warmer climes. On the whole, I tried to keep my kit simple and avoid too many ‘handy’ gadgets, in the belief that the less stuff you have, the less there is to go wrong.

DR650 and XR650L Adventure Modifications

Honda initially offered the XL600LM and Suzuki the DR600 Dakar but the European market wanted touring machines with the butch styling of the NSX-750. Honda developed the Africa Twin and Kawasaki followed suit with their KLR650. These were liquid cooled machines with high capacity fuel tanks and half fairings, configured primarily for touring but could handle neglected pavement, gravel, dirt roads and trails. Having 20/80 dirt to street bias, this lucrative niche became known as the Adventure Bike market. The concept of recreational motorcycle exploration also captured American attention in the late eighties. Honda's history of durability and quality earned favored status when it entered the Dual Sport niche.

Neither XRL nor DR is prefect out of the box but the DR's shortcomings are easier to resolve. DR650 Modifications XR650L Modifications Copyright © 2012. Fox Offroad Comp 5 Boot - Fox Racing - France.

These bikes are between 20 and 25 years old now, but will give an XR650L, DR650, KLR650, and so on, a run for their money. As near as I can tell here's how they compare: XL600R: Seat height 33.9 in Dry weight 295 lb Horsepower 43 bhp XR650L: Seat height 37.0 in Dry weight 324 lb Horsepower 43 bhp DR650: Seat height 33.0 – 34.8 in Dry weight 324 lb Horsepower 43 bhp It seems that the old XL's have a 29 lb weight advantage over the newer XR's.
