- So what is the CRF300L like at high speed on a winding road? We find out here. Everything is stock, including the tires. How does it handle curves at speeds over 120 kph? AND... what happens when you encounter a herd of bighorn sheep in a blind bend?

Where is this? It is beautiful country!
Thanks John. This is the Okanagan Valley in British Columbia Canada :-)
Many want to ride like the professionals but don't take into account that the pros are riding on well maintained closed courses. I see it all the time.
That's true. We have to remember we are riding on roads that could hold nasty surprises at any moment. Ride accordingly and live to ride again.
Last month, i dodged in betwn 2 deers runnin across d road in upper mission...Parkng lot practice really helps.
Oh man, that's testimony right there. Yeah, parking lot practice is golden :-)
Hi Mr Scoot been a while since i last posted a comment, i guess the 300l is Clyde 2 ? made up my mind & put deposit down for the 300l , not due here in the UK till oct/nov gutted, good video & audio as always, ATB Wayne UK............
Hey Wayne, Congrats on the choice. I think you'll be pleased. The wait time is tedious, but worth it I think. Hang in there :-)
I love your videos. Quick question is the Honda 300L still made in Japan?
Thanks. The 300L is made in Thailand; same as the 250L was. The Thai factories seem to do a great job. My CB650F is made there also, and the build on that bike is excellent.
@@Scoottoots thank you , thats good to hear.
West Side Rd?
Yup, Westside Road. Lovely road :-)
Man, looks like fun makes me miss my 2017 250l !
Hehehe, yup I missed my 2013 crf250l. That's why I got this 300L. Quite happy I did.
Nice riding bud 👍🏻
Cheers :-)
Awesome ride, "we had to get by him right?" Yes! That was a great section of road, looked like fun. There is risk in anything we do and around every corner could be danger, but we need to live and enjoy this life! Happy to see your enjoying your new bike.
Right on! Thanks Motodreamer :-)
Think she will do 80-90mph stock?
Sure. I had it up to 135 kph (84 mph) on the video and I never had it wide open. You do have to wind it out in 4rth and 5th to get the most out of it, top-speed wise.
@@Scoottoots good to know. I had a crf250l for years. Loved it and have been looking at the 300. Thanks for all the insight and information
Good to see it gets up to those speeds.
A fair improvement on the 250
I am running the Mitas E 07 on my 250 Rally. They seem good both on and off road.
@@davidroberts7490 I just did a couple top speed runs. That video will air on Thursday. Watch for it. It pulls pretty good. I've never tried the Mitas E 07. Thanks for the tip :-)
Have you tried the Perelli mt21's?
No, I have not tried the MT21's. Heard great things about them, especially the front.
I would need an exhaust for myself it is a little 🤫
I had a full Yoshi system on my 250L, but it was a love/hate relationship. This one has a bit more sound to it, so for me, it's going to stay with the stock exhaust :-)
Do you still own your CB650?
Yes I do. It's a good complement to the dual sport.
Some Dunlop 606 tires should do the trick. Oh that ABS is for wimps anyway. lol Great video as always :)
I looked at those. They seem good. I may just go with Kenda K270's though. I may also wear these stock tires down first. They'll never be great on gravel, especially the front, but they get better on the road after they wear a bit. Thanks Rider :-)
Edit that: I looked at the 605 Dunlops. I have used D606's before and for my terrain I did not like them. They are best suited for soft loose stuff, not the hard pack and rocky terrain I enjoy riding. Plus I found them lacking on pavement, being noisy and when you lean them right over there's precious little rubber on the road. I low-sided on them when leaned aggressively.
@@Scoottoots note to self on 606s. Been looking at Kenda too.
great exploring Scott !!!!
Thanks :-)
Here in Wisconsin I have to dodge the deer frequently. It can be a little nerve racking especially at night.
I never ride at night, and that's one of the reasons. Even in the city I don't ride at night though. Not worth it to me. Gotta be safe to enjoy :-)
Same problem here in the mountains of western NC. Too many deer and not worth it. I park it at night unless putting around woods so I can stay safe and ride in the day.
@@lukefish7562 Yup, I'm with you!
Awesome ride.
Thanks Jeep Man :-)
