So cool to see someone give this bike it's due. That is a great bike, especially for shorter riders. It's more fun to ride a slow fast than a fast bike slow. I've always loved the low-end torque on those air-cooled engines. Awesome job Tanner. Maybe hold onto this bike for a while 😊
My, My, My, WOW!!! DUDE! HOLY CROW! That is by far and away the Coolest Honda and or dual sport, I have ever seen! I haven’t watched your channel in a bit, but I tuned in after all the tornadoes that rolled through lately and thought of you, because you had a video about the ones a while back and it brought back sad memories for me for those involved. Your video in reference was good, despite the tragedy. I’m so glad you are doing well and thriving. I wrote you before and I’m the guy in Vermont and I am lucky enough to have a KLX 250 and 300 and I have tricked them out a bit, But nothing like that! So many quotes I could say! Off the hook, off the chain, bad ass etc! I’m Stunned! I agree with your girl, That’s insane! My quote before she said it! You could build these and sell them, I’ll be first in line. And I thought I was a bit off thinking about tricking out my bikes. I Absolutely Love it, Stunning beyond my imagination. My best to you and yours! Thanks!
Beautiful build brother! Top notch that’s for sure! Absolutely love it and well said for the ones wondering why money goes into them! 🤙🍻 Looking forward to what ya have planned next
Maybe what you’re looking for is a wr250r. 15 pounds heavier than your Honda after you remove the nonsense items, but 10 more ponies and a 6 speed. They are pretty reliable too. Love what you did with the Honda though. It sure is a beautiful and capable machine. Congrats on coming completing the build! Enjoy!
Beautiful build!! I love the Kenda Parker DT rear tires. I've run them for years on several bikes. I don't care as much for the parker front. I prefer the pirelli scorpion xcmh up front instead.
Bike came out SICK! Dude, for real, it needs a 6 speed, man that would be perfect. First 4 gears for off roading and then last two for road/long straights. Nice looking beard on ya too pal. Everything is DIALED!
Those are good bikes for sure. I have the KLX300R and it's also an amazing trail bike. Honestly I have 3 KTMs and and a CRF250X and I ride the KLX300R more than any of them for trail riding. Love your videos!
After torture testing the vonkat shock vs the BBR sprint upgrade I actually prefer the BBR sprint upgrade over the vonkat. Crazy how good the stock stuff is and how just a simple spring rate makes it so much better and more capable. The vonkat was nice but way too soft for aggressive riding and jumps. The BBR spring did everything great from aggressive riding to jumps and regular riding.
@ Bruce is a great option if you’re doing mostly trail and single track and not very competitively but I wanted it for motocross drilling so I wanted a stiffer more aggressive capability
As someone who put 800+ hours on mine, they are bullet proof. Only thing i did was oil changes, and did skid plates and covers, they where good cheap insurance.
Esse guidom Fasst flexx é um espetáculo, não existe aqui no Brasil, e mesmo se existisse muito provavelmente não teria como comprar para a minha CRF250F, esse amortecedor traseiro é outra obra de arte das duas rodas, sua moto ficou um linda.
We don’t care that the mods are over the value of the bike . We don’t care that it’s underpowered for most people , we just love building shit and testing it . The bike is 20% of the things you need to ride fast . Skill is 80% of the equation. So why not bling it up and enjoy the level that you’re at . If if makes you happy ,do it .
Another great video. I agree with all you say about the 450's, I had one myself, I had the 450X version, So it was crazy fast, and fun ln more open trails but. thats all it wanted to do, I had an XR250 way back and remember nothing but big smiles I have a Beta 300rr now and wonder about the 200rr LOL, Looking forward to the ride video.
DUDE! The edits are sick! Also the Kenda Parker DT rear has been my go-to for years. The front is trash imo, you should try the GoldenTyre GT216AA front tire with the Parker DT rear.
Hey I am upgrading the forks on my CRF250F. Do you remember what the shock fork oil weight was? I’m thinking it’s probably 5w. Love the channel. Keep the 250f videos coming!
Quick question. What is the new attachment from the fender kit that now you don’t have to screw holes into the back fender to keep the plate on? I can’t find it anywhere. Thanks again
Thanks for sharing, what a great looking bike! I just received my Vonkat shock from Hyperlite, I'm wondering how many turns you did to set your preload on the spring? Looks like you did quit a bit, also wondering how much your sag is? Keep the vids coming, you've given me lots of great ideas!
Hey man i bought the 2023 crf250f here in nova scotia we have some gnarlly trails and alot of rock my question is have you ever looked into inverted suspension? I hurd crf150 and 250r triples will fit just curious is all and sick ride man my buddy wants to so all black plastics too
Thanks for the bike build. If I can get the suspension working better, it would be an even better ride. I went with the Hagon shock and Bruce's front fork modification and heavier spring, but it's way too stiff. What lighter weight spring did you get?
Have you set your sag? My rear suspension is awesome. The forks seem tight on mine as well. Thinking about adding fork bleeders. And a lighter oil I have the Bruce's susp special. Front and rear
Probably close to stock, ditched a lot of weigh with the aftermarket exhaust, triple clamps, but also added a lot of protection items and lighting. If I had to guess, around 260LBS.
It's just not built for the type of riding we do. It puked it's guts out all over the ground underneath my bike. I thought I had cracked the case because there was so much oil. They did replace it, no questions asked. Awesome Customer Service. If they could make it beefier, it would be awesome. I did like the way it rode. I'm now on the Tuscany shock and it's the best out of all of them so far, plus it raises the rear end, more travel, and more adjustment. Definitely recommend it. Your bike turned out great. I have those flex bars on one of my other bikes. Try blue compression and yellow rebound with 3 threads sticking out of the nut. THATs the ticket!!!!
@@usmc03 I have been looking into the Tuscany shock as well. I bought the Hagon and I don't like it, it's too stiff. I also want a better front fork setup, I bought the set up and spring from Bruce, but it too was way too stiff. I need softer front springs I'm guessing.
You guys have me worried because I just ordered from Bruce! Picking my bike up later this week and was going to change suspension to Bruce’s before I ever throw a leg over the thing.
ola, sou Brasileiro e aqui nos temos uma opção de colocar o cambio de 6 velocidades, mas nao fica muito bom não. aqui no Brasil temos varias peças de reposição para essa moto.
I just don't get it. CRF250F = $5000. Plus all your performance upgrades (not including your cosmetic and protection upgrades) cost at least $3500 - not including the cost of time for installation! Now what do you have? A $8500+ bike that can be plated in some but not all states, and still has LESS horsepower, LESS torque, harder clutch, weak forks, LESS shock performance, LESS suspension travel, cheap brakes, LESS fuel capacity, NO speedometer, NO GPS, NO Traction Control, and NO fuel mapping - when you could have gotten a Beta 350 RS, that has all of these things and more right out off the showroom floor - for not all that much more. And then you could have spent all the time you spent researching, ordering, and installing - riding instead. And you had to upgrade your upgraded parts more than once because you weren't satisfied with your original upgrades - which ups your cost even more! Is it that you prefer a 'kit' bike - for the fun of upgrading it? Or that you like underpowered bikes with suspension that will always be lacking in travel and performance? Or is it because CRF250F videos are a fun way to pay the bills? That is actually not a bad reason! But why would such videos be so popular? I suspect they provide affirmation to other CRF250F owners (who bought their bikes because of price) who are yearning for affirmation about how fantastic their bike could be - if they add almost as much in aftermarket upgrade parts as the bike originally cost. What did I miss?
@@AdventureDaily maybe there isn't. I don't have a CRF 250f, so I don't know. I guess I just assumed there was a shock w remote res, but since the stock shock doesn't have one, maybe there isn't any place to mount the res. Seems like one could find a place though ...
Beautiful build my man only thing to maybe do different is pack those bearings with grease next time. th-cam.com/users/shorts2RwOLFaSBFM?si=1-121GXMlBVQHJG6

It's always fun to throw money at a bike!
Unlimited budget is everyone's dream.
i have one 250f here in brazil, already spend amost half of the original bike price lol

This is the BADDEST crf250f I’ve ever seen. She looks tatted up.

Kalair has such good quality graphics I got a set for my xr150L so I don’t have to worry about scratching it up
The only thing that would make that better is a kick start lever! She looking good.
I roll start mine all the time

The Crf250f reminds me of a giant crf110. And I got one of those. This bike is nuts. And I wana build one!
Please give a link to the light bar it looks sick!!
Oh my gosh it’s great to see you
You as well! Thanks for being here.
Great job on the build. I am usually a oem guy with the exception of small touches but this is 🔥 🔥 🔥 baddest 250f on TH-cam ✔️

The BBR spring did everything great from aggressive riding to jumps and regular riding.
I’m guess you meant spring instead of sprint. I have been debating on doing bbr springs or doing the Bruce triplet fork mod and hagon shock from him.
@ Bruce is a great option if you’re doing mostly trail and single track and not very competitively but I wanted it for motocross drilling so I wanted a stiffer more aggressive capability
Dude, that bike looks fan-frickin-tastic!! Great job!

I am interested in your opinion of the Vonkat El Jefe rear shock versus Bruce's Hagon rear shock setup.
Came out fantastic man! Great job!
What light bar is that? Looks slick
Great job budddy! keep doing what u doing chiief!!!
Where'd you get that lightbar?

Damn nice build but I think it might have been cheaper to throw the air cooled engine in a regular CRF frame.
Looks killer!🔥🤘🏻
Holy shit dude you went crazy

Thank you!!
Awesome 250f sexier than socks on a rooster 🐓 lol very cool.
How much total would all your upgrades cost anyone who wanted to build an identical bike without any sponsorships?
Did you relocate the start and kill switch? I’m having trouble figuring out hand guards with them?
Hey man i bought the 2023 crf250f here in nova scotia we have some gnarlly trails and alot of rock my question is have you ever looked into inverted suspension? I hurd crf150 and 250r triples will fit just curious is all and sick ride man my buddy wants to so all black plastics too
Bro great video… I have a 250F 2022… how much did all this cost?
I 100% agree this bike whoops be perfect with a 6 Speed
Did you use the Hyperlite lengthening clevis for the new el jefe shock?
Can you please tell me where you got your black rims for your bike I have been searching all over!!???
Hi, we could put an Athlon ECU on this CRF. If you want we are avaiable to send to you
can you buy that rear fender seperate or as just part of the plastics kit
What are your thoughts on the GPX 250E air cooled bike? looks interesting.
Pretty cherry ride, man👌
Thanks for the bike build. If I can get the suspension working better, it would be an even better ride. I went with the Hagon shock and Bruce's front fork modification and heavier spring, but it's way too stiff. What lighter weight spring did you get?

I have the Bruce's susp special. Front and rear
What those upgrades set u back ?
Bad ass !!!
Thank you!!
What front suspension are you running? Bruce's?
How does the ride height compare to stock?
Does the plastics fit a 2022 crf250f? Just wondering I have the bike and would love black plastics
What sprockets do you have in the front and back?
Thoughts on the el jefe vs Hagon?
I’m 255 pounds is that new rear spring stronger than the Bruce shock?
Most of us modified it to lighten it overall. I think you added 20 pounds to it. :D
Does anyone know where to find frame guards for a crf250f like his I can’t find them anywhere?
What does it weigh wet? Do the handle bars add much weight?
Probably close to stock, ditched a lot of weigh with the aftermarket exhaust, triple clamps, but also added a lot of protection items and lighting. If I had to guess, around 260LBS.
@@AdventureDaily Bike looks great. I'd like one. Loved my test ride on a stock one and always though building a nicer one makes sense.
I blew that Vonkat shock up in less than 10 hours. Horrible shock.
Hmmm how did you manage that and did you reach out to him?
It's just not built for the type of riding we do. It puked it's guts out all over the ground underneath my bike. I thought I had cracked the case because there was so much oil.

Where did you get the all black plastics? I can’t find a kit anywhere for my 2024
Same
Where did you get the LED light bar?
It’s time for an Africa twin dct that’s the future, just saying
Link to aftermarket shifter please!!
That Looks Dope. nice parts.
So sick. Too bad Honda doesn’t have a 400F
i write from Chile but i would like to have de page to buy accesorios of CRF250F
Does anybody know what the rubber things are on the suspension
Nioce realllll nioce!
Looks too good to get dirty!

Honda engine.
Can’t plate a Beta in WI according to my dealer.
Beta RR-S / RS models are plated in all 50 states, just like KTM EXC-F & Husky FE s models
Speaking from experience its funne to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow and its more manigeble
@bmx_boys1431 - I very much agree about the fun of riding underpowered bikes - good point - cheers
Anybody making passenger pegs for 250F?
Another one with 360 or 400 kit

anyone know when he says where he got the graphics kit
