Honda crf250l 2019 Almost stock. First thoughts.

[@springy-2112]

Yep, i discovered the common 13 tooth front sprocket mod has been done so i will put it back to a stock 14 to give it an easier time at higher speed. People dont believe that Honda figured out the best gearing for all situations. 🤔✌️🧡

I like it thought about the 300 for myself but in Thailand i spend 95% of my time on roads . i will see how i feel when i retire and spend more time in Thailand . Glad you are enjoying it nice that it will cruise at 70 . Cheers

[@springy-2112]

Yes it should cruise happier when I change the front sprocket back to 14 teeth. I discovered the 13 tooth one yesterday, a common mod.
Just ordered a bunch of service stuff and the sprocket. It's not due but it's been years not miles since its last one and I like to start a fresh. ✌️❤️👍

They certainly are a great fun little bike buddy and mine is still virtually stock. I fitted a pair of actual Honda handguards, which were quite hard to come by; they shouldn't be as I think they're fitted as standard on the 300, and a rack. Apart from that the only change I've made is to remove the saddle's strap. Cheap and versatile, it's far more agile than I am which may explain why I've fallen off it a few times 😄 It's fine just as it is 🙂 Big love to you brother

I've been looking for honda handguards. I didn't think of the 300 stock ones. Great info buddy.
I've ordered a bunch of service stuff. It's overdue on years not miles. And I want to start all fresh with it. Got a standard 14 tooth front sprocket coming. It's got the 13 tooth mod on it.
Fine for most lemmings but not for me.
I think people just automatically do these " performance " mods without even thinking. Or just to be like every other owner who can't think for themselves.
Any way I'm really getting into the nitty gritty of it now . Surprising how much abuse / neglect you can find on a 1300 mile bike!
Nothing bad just surprising.
I can tell it's definately spent most if its life off road, it has the scars to prove it. Which is fine that's what it's for.
Cheers Dave, hope you are doing well brother. Peace and love 👍✌️❤️

Enjoy your new toy very nice little bike and cheap to run i bet

[@springy-2112]

@johnshanks7902 Thanks John, it's nice to try different things. It requires a very different approach to my usual ones. You really have to think on the road.
👍✌️🧡

@@springy-2112 small bikes are fun if u think your crf is small try a msx 125 not for everyone but love mine about the town can beat them for mpg about 120 to a gallon . I also have a xj 900s for long distances yet another great bike being shaft drive

[@springy-2112]

@johnshanks7902 you already know what i was on with re small bikes👍✌️❤️

I bet Redbourne feels different from when I lived up there when the A15 went through. I’m not into modification unless there is a real need.

@OldManTony
My reply ended as a comment to me? Not sure how I did that.
It was about 13 to 14 tooth sprocket , back to stock to help at higher speed.
Hope you are doing OK buddy. 👍 👌 ✌️❤️
