The elemental 124cc SOHC single that powers the '''[[Honda]] XL125S''' is simple, tor-quey, economical and may well be the most time-tested engine in all of motorcycling. the power plant has maintenance-free electronic ignition, a six-speed close-ratio [[transmission]], aluminum skid plate for case protection when traversing rocky terrain and chain final drive. | |||
A leading-axle fork and rear lay-down shocks provide ample suspension travel, and the universal-tread tires stick well on or off the road. The XL has such street-legal amenities as flex-mounted turn signals, large tail- and headlights, rearview mirrors and large-capacity fuel tank. | |||
