Engineered by Honda for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2013 Honda XR 200 utilizes a 196.9 cc (12 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 12.1 HP (8.8 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 16.7 Nm (12.3 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 61.5 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,000 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the XR 200 measures 116 kg (256 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (9.59 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 858 mm (33.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,375 mm (54.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 9-liter (2.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
