Years

The final European series gained Euro 3 calibration, detail changes and usually fuller touring equipment; ABS is common. Its engine architecture and main chassis remain shared with the injected generation introduced in 2003.
Years
2003 - 2006
The major update brought PGM-FI fuel injection, a sixth gear, a lower seat and a smaller but more practical tank. It is smoother and more economical than the carburetted version and was available with optional ABS.
Years
1999 - 2002
The first Varadero 1000 uses a carburetted 996cc V-twin in a roomy, heavy adventure-touring chassis. The early SD01 series has a more abrupt throttle response and higher fuel consumption than later injected models.
The Honda XL 1000 V Varadero is an adventure touring motorcycle powered by a 996 cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine, produced from 1999 to 2011. The Varadero combines the potent engine from the VTR 1000 FireStorm with adventure styling and high handlebars. With standard ABS (on later models), optional integrated luggage and a substantial fairing, Honda positioned it as the ideal long-distance tourer for the road-biased adventurer.
The XL 1000 V targets touring riders who want to mix tarmac with occasional light off-road use. The high seat height of 855 mm is a consideration for shorter riders, but the 250 kg weight keeps it stable and comfortable on motorways. It competed with the BMW R 1150 GS, Suzuki V-Strom 1000 and Yamaha XT 1200 Z Super Ténéré. A particularly popular used buy in the Netherlands for its strong reliability record.
A used Honda Varadero costs €3,450 on average. Most cost €1,600 to €4,995. This is based on 69 motorcycles for sale now.
