Honda XRM

The Honda XRM is an underbone-style motorbike that is produced and sold in the Philippines. It is called Nice in Thailand but is not an off-road type. Since 2001, the Honda XRM has been released with a 110 cc (6.7 cu in) engine, but in 2007 the Honda XRM 125 cc (7.6 cu in) was released, which uses the engine from the Honda Wave. It is designed for both on- and off-road use.

Ease of modification and readily available parts and accessories have made the Honda XRM popular, particularly with the underbone riding culture, with numerous rider clubs being formed across the country. Unfortunately, these modifications (especially to the handlebars and wheels) can pose danger, as they are not specifically included in the product's engineering, and often defeat the "dual-sport" nature of the motorbike.

The Honda Bravo is a derivative of the Honda XRM designed for city use, but it carries the same frame that is used by NF100 (Wave100 - both models) not the frame of the XRM.
