@Yammie Noob, Sup yammie, Im getting more and more into bikes and want to get one in a year or two. I know what I want out of a bike but I have know idea which one to go after. I watched many videos and just figured I’d ask the expert himself. I’m a brand new person to bikes so obviously I need a beginner bike. But I’m looking for something sporty, fun and fast. What would you recommend?
I took the MSF course and passed a few weeks ago and just got my m2 license in the mail today I rode Honda CRF250L and I loved it so much. Yam, I've been watching your channel since I was 16 and now I'm 22 and saving for my first motorcycle. Thank you so much for your videos bro.
@@collinmc90 Just maybe something like a Honda Cbr250r or a Kawasaki Ninja 300 just something forgiving for a noob like me. Already got a full face helmet and gloves and I'm saving for additional gear.
I fucking love my crf300l. Best bike I’ve ever owned. Hear me out. Ducati monster 1200s. Ducati monster 1200 r Yamaha Mt09, Suzuki vstrom 650 Yamaha vstar 1300. And now this. I’ve experienced 75% of the different types of bikes out there and I love my crf300l as my number one. When I was a kid I had a Honda xr200 and I literally beat the ever-loving snot out of it I think i even lubed my chain with gear oil. Anyways my riding has come full circle. Back to where riding is simple. Safe. And an absolute blast
@@JohnnyBoy919 from what I remember 20 years ago the 300 is sprung similarly. The back shock at least. The front is better than the xr200. The engine is way more pokie but still very constricted from the factory but still way better than the xr
I rode dirt bikes as a kid but they were eventually sold as we moved out of the country and into more urban areas. I have been looking for an excuse to start riding again now that I can buy my own, this seems like the perfect choice.
My son bought one last summer after getting his full license.. fun bike , forgot how fun light bikes are to flick around after years of heavy cruisers. He keeps up with me in my Talon on the trails at reasonable paces.
Hey I’m 65, definitely not a beginner, ccant count how many bikes I’ve owned over my years . Just bought a 2023 Honda 300 Rally left over in June, I love this bike. It’s a good bike for anyone!!! 🤠👍
I bought a 250L new in 2016. I love it. Fisher price plastics, you can drop it and break just levers. I liked that it was efi, and it replaced an ‘82 XR250L that had been through hell and back. I fully intend to keep the little CRF as a second bike in the future, or maybe as my off-road bike and pivot to more street (I have too many hobbies). But so far I can’t say I’ve been unhappy with it.
I usually recommend the 250-500CC Honda and Kawasaki ADV or enduro or whatever style street legal dirt bike to beginners and everyone in general honestly just because they're the most versatile and fun AND light as hell, usually easy to work on and parts are easy to find. Biggest obstacle is most of them are fairly tall but other than that nobody ever regrets buying one, they usually only ever regret selling them or just upgrade to a bigger ADV bike
I recommend the Kawasaki 300 KX it has some design upgrades and suspension is awesome right out of the box Near perfect torque delivery on road and off
I like my BMW G310GS for similar reasons, highly recommend and having owned much more powerful bikes in the past, can't see myself getting rid of this any time soon
I wish Honda made a trail only version of this similar to the Kawasaki KLX 300R. If they took this platform and got rid of the street legal stuff and improved the suspension, it would be lighter and have the longer maintenance intervals with better suspension. Honda is holding onto the 250 trail bike, when it could easily upgrade it or at least offer an option like Kawasaki gave to the market. There are so many people that want a reliable trail bike. Not everyone races at a track in California, yet we don't want to bottom out over a root. KTM and Husky make a better woods bike that can lug and be snappy, but their maintenance schedule is that of a race bike and they are tall. Hell, even if Yamaha made a $6k reliable trail bike with good suspension that would be great. If they sold the WR250R for $7k, they could have traded the dual sport street legal stuff for better suspension and sold it for $6.5k. The WR250R weighed like 290lbs; I wonder if it were just a trail bike with better suspension if they could get it down to 250 lbs?
My first bike was a Honda XL250. Great bike! This one of course is way better than that old air cooled carbureted antique. Lol! That being said, the only thing about the CRF300L that I don’t like is that floppy front brake line constantly moving back and forth in front of the display.
Great review. Not a new rider but wanting a lightweight, street legal bike for commuting and low key exploring. Still having a hard time deciding between this and the KLX
I have the G310GS and while it's not as capable off road as the CRF300L, it's much better on road. After two years, my baby GS has been 100% reliable and I love it. It looks a lot better too, although that's subjective.
@@markkotishion2379 I got them talked down to $7,700 for the ABS model (its all they have in stock) but it still seems crazy. Good luck to you as well, hope you get what you want!
27 HP. Same as 1962 305 Superhawk graduated to after the 1965 S-90. 27 HP was Superbike territory then..especially because it put out reliably at max power over time... by then nuts, bolts and pieces invariably started falling off HDs and Brit bikes during those not to friendly races.
You missed at least one competitor: Yamaha XT250. It’s a bit cheaper, lighter, fuel-injected, air-cooled, and most important of all, made in Japan (unlike the CRF).
Ive owned both. The crf is heavier om paper, but feels lighter than xt. Also, the seat height is pretty low, making it easier for shorter riders, but taller riders may feel a bit cramped
My crf250l was the best beginner bike. It is tall which is ironic because it's made in Japan. I'm japanese, you can chill. Just got a Ducati scrambler but still miss my crf.
@@JohnnyBoy919 haha my legs haven't grown since freshman year. I bought the bike online from a dude in Oregon, never sat on it before. It was a learning curve I have a Ducati scrambler with a more forgiving seat height now
If you grew up on dirt bikes your going to definitely want a liter bike and up unless slow and questionable unsafe in traffic is what you are looking for.
You mentioned the suspension in the video, the rear shocks, can you give me a more detailed explanation of how it actually feels? I live in Vietnam and started out with a tiny little 135cc yamaha but want to upgrade to something nicer, needless to say the suspension on my current POS is AWFUL every bump on the road rattles my spine. How does this bike feel?
Hi I live in the US and own a CRF300L Rally and found the suspension to be very soft. I you are not a aggressive rider and weigh less than a 170 LB ( 76.5 KG ) the suspension will be ok. but if you weigh more than that or carry a lot of luggage you will want to buy stiffer springs or maybe a new rear shock. I bought a new shock for mine and springs for my weight end has worked grate. It is a great bike.
You CAN NOT get your hands on one of these in the PNW right now! Dealer told me that even when they get one in that isn't already bought or pre-ordered, they fly out the door within the first day on the floor.
I’ve not owned a motorcycle in years, but I’m considering one. I grew up with the Honda motosports from the ‘70’s. The SL’s and XR’s. At my age, I can’t afford to take a tumble, so my off road riding would just be putting around my land in the country. What I really need is the best dual sport that will run for an hour and fifteen minutes at 65mph, so that I can get to my place in the country. Would that 70 mile commute get old on this 300, or is it doable?
@@ChrisG1392 My livelyhood depends on a motorcycle was considered a bigger bike upgrade , but considering the shitstorm thats about to happen its good to be frugal.
This was great. I am considering this or the Ténéré 700. You said that the Honda isn't so good off road. Is it better or worse than the Ténéré off road? Thanks!
@@LivinProoof Only if you weigh more than 170 LB and are a aggressive rider. I am 72 and put a new yss shock on the back and a new springs rated for my weight for the new shock and the front forks because I carry my camping gear on the back and it was to soft a suspension. I weigh about 175 LB in all my gear and carry about 35 to 40 LB of luggage.
How far can you turn the handlebars on the svart401 compared to a proper dual sport like the crf? Can you perform proper 90 degree u turns on the husqy??
When you say the KLX has better suspension, its better how? Now that I am older, I would appreciate the softer spongey suspension, and softer seat. Which bike wins that war?
Other than both being Hondas, they’re apples and oranges. CRF is modern and light, the XR is old school and heavy. I ride one and it’s a big bitch off road.
Im REALLY stuck between this and a honda grom... The whole idea of me buying a motocycle was to group ride with other minis... However... This looks to be an AMAZING piece of bike... ugh! LOL
This is the bike Spite should have bought rather than the KLR. It is not only a better bike, it is small and sounds like a little kitty purring. Maybe they have it in a special My Little Pony version for Spite.
Honestly seems like a dope first bike. The fun of a dirtbike but its also street legal? Honestly would have considered something like this as a first bike if I knew how restrained I felt riding on public roads. Less fun to be had
Hope Yamaha takes some hints and looks at maybe doing a TW 300 or like you said the WR 350R. that would kill. and seriously what is up with that brake line? Why is the 300 cc range lacking in options! there are like a million street bikes to choose from and hardly any 300 cc dual sports. I have a TW200 and love it for what I do but lets face it shes a putter and a farm bike not much of a show pony haha.
1:13 😃 I couldn't explain my appeal to the "REDS"(not my favorite color sorry), until now! The resemblance is MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE!........ No?...... Just me then. 🤪
Look at the XT250 if you’re concerned about seat height, this bike would def be on the tippy toe side of things for you. XT250 is like two inches lower, stock. Though I’m sure you can mod the seat height one way or another…
I know for most of the rest of the world this might seem crazy, but living in rural Texas (not THAT far from Yammie) my first question of any motorcycle made for street use is: Can it easily cruise at 90-95mph (145-153kph) for hours and hours on end? If the answer is no, then it isnt usable on the highways here, and automatic pass.
@@Birdz_Hustle I mean, that isn't true everywhere, I just got back from Costa Rica and I never saw anything higher than 80KPH there, although a guide said some places it gets to 90KPH (about 56MPH). But here in rural Texas, if I can't cruise at 90MPH, and preferably have enough acceleration potential to left over to escape forward if needed, then even in the slow lane I am going to have lines of cars passing me. The slower I go, the more cars need to pass me, eventually one of those cars wont be paying attention and run me over, I call this freeway roulette.
There’s some truth here for sure. I ride a 650L, but it’s tall and heavy, so was considering a 300L. This is one thing that keeps me hesitant. It’ll be lighter sure, but won’t have the legs like my 650 does when I need it.

Klx due to the better suspension at your weight. You’d bottom out the crf in a heartbeat. Also you would benefit from the little extra seat height.
You speak really fast rofl, I’m pretty quick but I’m barely keeping up 🤣😂
I’m 5’5 or 5’6 on a good day 170lb would this be ok ?
Look at the XT250 if you’re concerned about seat height, this bike would def be on the tippy toe side of things for you. XT250 is like two inches lower, stock. Though I’m sure you can mod the seat height one way or another…
Most of your turk is around 1 snd 2 gear
I’ve never heard anyone pronounce “sans” that way.
Yay Sigma...the lonewolves greet.
Imo the DRZ400 is a way better and more capable bike than the 300L. Not even in same category really.
Yeah and it's about 4000 dollars more lol
65 Miles per galon?
Is there any bikes under 150 cc
Honda trail 125
W800 when?
I had a cb300fe same motor
crf300L or rally?
If you're tall enough get the rally. Bigger tank and longer travel suspension and a tiny bit of wind protection
This video, but on the "crf450
Turbo Busa with some knobbies.
Ultimate off road machine.
I know for most of the rest of the world this might seem crazy, but living in rural Texas (not THAT far from Yammie) my first question of any motorcycle made for street use is: Can it easily cruise at 90-95mph (145-153kph) for hours and hours on end? If the answer is no, then it isnt usable on the highways here, and automatic pass.
No.
Lmao! Love your thinking… if I can’t take it on TX highways and not get ran TF over.. it’s not safe!!
@@Birdz_Hustle I mean, that isn't true everywhere, I just got back from Costa Rica and I never saw anything higher than 80KPH there, although a guide said some places it gets to 90KPH (about 56MPH). But here in rural Texas, if I can't cruise at 90MPH, and preferably have enough acceleration potential to left over to escape forward if needed, then even in the slow lane I am going to have lines of cars passing me. The slower I go, the more cars need to pass me, eventually one of those cars wont be paying attention and run me over, I call this freeway roulette.
There’s some truth here for sure. I ride a 650L, but it’s tall and heavy, so was considering a 300L. This is one thing that keeps me hesitant. It’ll be lighter sure, but won’t have the legs like my 650 does when I need it.
a young woman is riding one to Alaska (ralley)
my 2002 dr200 has a 3 gallon tank. 😂🤣😁
