Even though I am not at all new to dirtbikes/streetbikes, this video is done extremely well. It's perfect for a new rider. Great job!
Thank you for checking it out!
Now I need to go check mine lol
Excellent video & advice ! Lots of new riders may not know these things. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching!
Do they come in small tire
The dual sport version does not, you’d have to buy aftermarket tires.
@@DerekDualSport to thank you very much man
Got one and wish I knew about GPX FSE 300 before I purchased my KLX 300.
Man I think I want the D/S I’ve been eying up the Klx300R now and they have a killer deal for the D/S at my local Kawasaki shop $5399 for left over 2024 model… I’ve been watching your videos it seems like it can handle the woods just fine.
I would jump on that deal! It does do great in the woods. I’m working on a video now where I was keeping up with UTV’s and SXS’s through mud and creek crossings etc. I would recommend swapping the sprockets and getting more off road oriented tires if you want to hit tougher trails on the DS.
@@DerekDualSport yea man thanks ! I like the speedometer and the keyed ignition too, don’t get why the R has a push button ignition
Like tjis guy I was tired of trucking on a Harley and having to pass up all those dirt roads calling me to explore. The most enjoyable bike I ever had was ct110 back in the 80s I put thousands of miles on that little mule exploring trails and as a around town runner. I am. Going to get one of these in The spring!
its not stupid if it work's, nice job :)
Haha that’s exactly right. Thank you!
I'm thinking about investing in some shock sox. No doubt they will help in sandy and muddy terrain.
It definitely wouldn’t hurt. Not a bad idea!
@@DerekDualSport would make a good review video
mine arent leaking yet. but with all the jumps i hit on the klx 300sm. ima keep this bookmarked <3 thanks for the instructions!
Did it ever happen
@@alextucker8624 4k rough miles and 2 wheelie loops and they're still hangin in there.
Always scary, it can make for a bad ride but also that oil going all over your tire and brakes can be dangerous.
Great format and video. Making me want a KLX!
Thank you man!
Dude I’m loving your channel! As a 6’4” rider who is picking up my klx300 next week. It’s nice to see a fellow tall guy ripping the bike around.
Thank you!
As a 6’4” person who is picking this bike up next week. I really enjoy seeing some of your “tall guy” upgrades. Very helpful
Congrats! You’ll have a blast on it. Tall people problems are real haha but I’ve never felt too cramped on the KLX
King, NC
What do you think of a KLR650? Good Adventure bike that isn't too bad on highways if you ever need it?
I love my new 2024 KLX300. I agree with his analysis.
How much speed did you sacrifice by dropping to a 13 tooth front sprocket?
About 5 mph
I just got my 24' KLX 300 yesterday! I've aboslutely loved all 18 miles I got it on so far lol. Sold my POS Grom to get it!
That’s awesome you’ll have a blast with it!
like your spring idea!
I have a full Yoshi exhaust and it was loud. I put in a baffle from Amazon and now I have the looks and weight loss and a slight performance increase all while it keeping it quiet.
That’s a cool idea! I might try that out.
Great video! Do you think your traction issue could be the tires?
Definitely I have recently switched to the Pirelli MT21 front Dunlop 606 rear tire Combo and traction is much better!
At 54,and not owning a motorcycle for over 25 years…..although I have the KLX 300R I agree with all of your comments,price,performance and build quality
Definitely great bikes!
MT21 front and rear are the best!
690enduro R all day.
You have some good videos man. I have watched two so far and will watch more soon. I also subscribed tonight as well. Can I ask, what helmet mic do you use & how do you set it up in your helmet and to the go pro? Also, do you add in some of your narration in post ride, back at home when you’re editing the video? Thanks.
Thank you very much! I use the DJI mic system. It comes with two microphones, I put one in my helmet and one in the rear fender bag. The helmet mic I clip directly onto the Django helmet mount and it puts the mic right in front of my mouth. If you have a go pro you’ll need to buy the go pro “media mod” to use the microphones. I do use a mixture of audio from the ride and a voice over that I record while editing.
@@DerekDualSport Thanks for answering that. That’s a a big help. I have 3 quick follow up questions … #1. The attachment on the outside (lower right side) of the helmet, does that have anything to do with this set up? #2. The second mic you put in the rear fender bag, is that turned on to record sound, or it’s there as a spare? #3. How long do the batteries last for the DJI mic set?
The attachment on the lower right side of the helmet is for communication with riding buddies who have the same communication system. All my audio and pov video is run from the chin mount, Both microphones are recording at the same time. I like this set up so when I have nothing to say I can just pick up a lot of engine/exhaust sound from the second mic. The DJI mics last literally all day which I love. I set them up at the beginning of my ride and they will stay on until I get home. I’ve gone 8-10hrs. The go pro battery drains far more often then the mic battery.
@@DerekDualSport Cool. So, one Mic is plugged directly into the gopro media mod, how do you get the audio from the second mic onto the video? What editing software do you use to edit your videos once your back home?
@redeemedadventures so the DJI mic package comes with a receiver and two wireless mics. The receiver plugs into the media mod, and the go pro records the audio from both wireless mics from the receiver. I use Final Cut Pro X to edit video, but If you don’t have a Mac I’d use Premiere Pro to edit.
I know what ya mean about the rocky trails messing you up. I grew up riding East coast trails and in my 40s, went to Hatfield and mcory trails. Hit some rock gardens! At the time I had a xr400r. I learned real quick that all I had to do was let the bike do what it wanted to do and just gas it when in bought. I also learned that doing that kind of riding on a lighter 2 stroke was way more easy on my body. I'm slower now and probably would stay away from the rock gardens but still riding at 55! KLX300 and a KDX200
Awesome advice. I plan on checking out the Hatfield and Mcoy trails soon! Glad you’re still out there riding and having fun I hope to be doing the same at 55.
That was a beautiful day! And a great video! You did great! 1a definitely has it's rough spots that took me a while of riding to Conquer! Can't wait to go again with you bro!
Definitely, and thank you! Can’t wait for next time!
Good advice. If you can afford a 360 camera get one. They will record riders in front as well as behind you. They can even record yourself falling. Mount it on the side of your helmet and not the top so that it doesn't get slammed by tree limbs. Y'all have fun.
I definitely want to add a 360 cam at some point.
I dropped 1 tooth on the front but didn't get the results I wanted for off road. I reinstalled the stock front and installed a 52 on the rear. I like this set up much better.
I got a pretty similar set up, I got to agree it’s great for off road.
Momentum and standing up more while squeezing the bike with your knees is key
Good tips, squeezing with the knees is something I definitely got to get better at.
Momentum is key and confidence because the bike will make it over as long as you can keep your balance with throttle control and clutch learning to balance and ride. Slow is beneficial.
Great tips thank you!
Yes you and the mighty KLX can keep up.
Haha! We certainly gave it our best
Looking to get my first dual sport. I wanna travel the roads less traveled and explore new places. Only trouble I’m having is which bike to get. I’ve narrowed it down to the klx300 and the drz400. Ik whichever one I choose I’m gonna have a blast. Any help/advice is greatly appreciated!!! Love the channel bro 🤙
Ik both have their pros and cons but just wanna hear from someone that knows a lot about dual sports
I agree that you will have a blast on either one. I like that the KLX is a bit more modern with fuel injection etc. The Drz’s have not changed a thing in a long time so there is a lot more aftermarket parts available for the DRZ. I tell ya I’ve taken the KLX 300 all over the place it’ll definitely get you down those places less traveled.
Looks like a really fun place to ride!
nice one! man i wish i had buddies to ride with here. the guys i know bikes are always down lol..
Haha I know the feeling. When I got my bike I’d just search for dual sport groups on social media, I didn’t know any of these guys beforehand.
Downshiffffffft
So cool dude! Hope to see you again Saturday!
Awesome riding man!
Helluva ride you did! Nice job! I'm thinking about that KLX to knock around on but I'm 60 and don't really want to take any nasty falls. I would probably stay away from that rocky single track stuff.
Thank you! Yeah that’s the cool thing about the KLX you can knock around on it, or you can take it on some tough trails. It’s great for both. I’m with you though, I don’t want to take anymore nasty falls either haha.
He had a British accent while riding and narrating but he became a yank when the helmet came off. Scary stuff!
Should i consider trying to put frame sliders? Im very new to riding in general and am getting my endorsement soon and want to take it out on the road, im just scared of dropping it. If i should what brand should i go with it?
That’s a very good question. I have not seen frame sliders on a KLX 300. But better to be safe than sorry right? It looks like t-Rex racing has a set for the KLX. www.t-rex-racing.com/2009-2023-KLX250-300-No-Cut-Frame-Sliders-p/n251-18.htm
@@DerekDualSport One more question will most klx 300 2023 mods work on the 2024 model, Im pretty inexperienced at working on bikes haha.
Yes definitely 2020-2025 should all work the same. They don’t change much from year to year.
@@DerekDualSport Thanks for the info, going to subscribe now aha
Old guy here who picked up an '18 KLX 250 after being away from riding while we raised our daughters... anyway, I dig seeing all the upgrades you've made... gives me ideas for this winter. Thanks, enjoy the rest of ypur riding season and stay well.
I just ran the WYBDR on the KLX 300 with the MT21/D606s. These tires were perfect. I don’t reduce PSI off-road… I just run the stock recommended pressures. Worked perfect for those 1000 miles. They are fine on the road, but if you ride a lot on the road there are better options. For off road (gravel, dirt, mud, sand) these are great.
Couldn’t have said it better myself 👍
For me, the Tusk DSport is the best value.
Very informative video. Thanks! When you put the switchgear on the new handlebar did you drill holes in the handlebar for the locating pin?
I did not, I cut off the pin and wrapped that part of the bar with electrical tape.
Been riding over 20 years, owned all kinds of motorcycles, sport bikes, adventure bikes, all kinds of duel sports. Bought a KLX300 what a fun motorcycle! Love it man, it’s not a Tenere. But it sure is fun and way way lighter which I can appreciate.
I have a 2017 Suzuki DRZ400S with Kenda Track Master tire on it I have over 7000 miles on these tires. The rear is very good the front is not as good on my bike its OK but not great. My riding is at least 90% off road on gravel and dual track logging roads in NE Wisconsin.
