I wasn't aware of the wrap technology in lieu of repainting. Cool! Or as they say now, Sweet!
Just been reading the comments and some of the criticisms...but they're all forgetting that it's your bike and you've got it looking the way YOU WANT and that's what I love about you, Lucas. You're not following in someone else's footsteps, you're being you, carving your own path and most importantly, having fun!!!
That red under the front mud guard would annoy me to death.
I know, right? 😅
how about the red showing in the "attachment/bolt holes" for the body panels
And the red behind the headlight number plate that you are always seeing when you ride.
That will be number 2 for me, my biggest gripe is the humongous license plate.
I dont now, I thought that at first but I think it sort of pays homage to the Honda it is
Hi Lucas, I do like the new colour as it’s quite subtle and not quite as “in your face” as bright red and I like the way that you have personalised it with the R4K stickers, looks very professional.
Fantastic looking bike! Have it the way you want it! Always the best idea. Love your other bike, too! Another great video! Thanks! Merry Christmas!
Good stuff R4K. Enjoy the bike and thanks for the informational vids.
No problem 👍
I’ve been watching this year, honestly really enjoy your videos man!
I really enjoy your bike videos. The bike looks great. Your background music always fits right in to the video without being intrusive and compliments it. Gotta love how easy it is to find bike/car customization shops in Thailand. You really can't do it as inexpensively yourself unlike here in the US.
She's a beaut, Loucous. Safe riding!
Good stuff R4K. Enjoy the bike.The bike looks great. Great customization. Very good idea to get road tires, now it is more like a super moto.
Bike looks great Lucas, congratulations 🏍
Beautiful and I have to agree I like the blue a lot better. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and here’s hoping for a better 2021.🎄🙏
Looks sharp Man, Merry Christmas to you and V.
That white and blue scheme works very well on your Honda, and you made the perfect choice in tires too for your purpose. I'm looking for some more road-worthy tires for my KLX230 as well. Great video, very inspiring. Thanks.
Your bike looks great. You new condo seems to be in a great location. Have a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Expecting more great videos in 2021.
Been looking for an English review on these , thanks.
I cried when I saw the seat and tyre change . Gonna keep my eyes open for a trail riding review.
Everything is personal and I hand it to you for being brave enough to share what you did to a great looking new bike. I guess the only thing I can say is hopefully it keeps the original plastic underneath pristine... Having said that the tyres look good..
Lou is having a little bit of Fun! Keep the videos coming....
Another great video! I'm not a cyclist myself but I enjoy the process of how you purchase and upgrade your vechicles,Lucus!
Nice ride and share! Thanks much! Reminds me of my start on a 125 / 175 'Enduro' 2 stroke back in the day.... My how things have changed and progressed! I agree with your choices in tires, as it makes much more sense for urban use, and safer. Ride well, enjoy and again thank you! Cheers from the PNWest! :0
Cool bike! Turned out very nice.
Love the new colour though im not too crazy about your logo decals, but i suppose you have to advertise somehow 5555. Tyres look awesome & very practical around Patts. Thanks for the update 👍🙏
Your Arbor Cameraman is a natural... he he Very smooth and no shake at all... Your Bike looks great and most important it performs well and is reliable for you there in Thailand..... great content and love the differing aspects of you youtube channel... Also you are a natural storyteller and find it informative and entertaining at the same time... Good luck and keep it up...
Amazing video!!😍
Nice, good luck with your new Ride.
Nice. Enjoy the the bike and ride safe
Nice! Thanks. Cant wait to see her kitted up with skid plate and rear rack.
Enjoyed that. The wrap process was great.
Looks great, thanks for the update! Still waiting on the US announcement for these.
Hi Lucas.... nice bike, all the extras looks good and the tyres give it a bit of a motart look and feel.....maybe you should consider a good aftermarket exhaust tail pipe for a nice sound with a bit of a grawl, the current pipe doesn't sounds nice...I miss Thailand so much......... Regards and have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Bike looks great, congrats on your new toy!
Awesome! Looks like a Yamaha now lol. I can't wait until we see them in the U.S.
Pls Yam’ make us a WR 350 R and take my money 💰 💵 already !!!
Hello Lucas, really good video on the new bike. It looks great with the wrap. I met you in the Assienda last December and we had a beer or two along with Rodney. Can't get back there this year from the USA but hopefully next December. Ride safe!
Great vlog, love the bike
Nice to meet you Vinyl Wrap shop , ride safe buddy !!!
great video as always and I love the colour of the bike....
Thanks! 👍
I really like that bike a lot and those tires seem to have a lot of tread oh... I like the whole procedure you went through to get it where it is nice job dude anyway good to see you again on your motor. Stay safe. From the US
great job and find the good local shops,interesting
Merry xmas Lucas have fun with your new bike
Congratulations .May you have years of enjoyment. Safe ride.
Money well spent, looks so much better!
That’s a great thing about Thailand is how cheap it is to customise cars/bikes etc, love the changes, looks completely different & the wrap is protecting the original paint & panels, it’ll be like new underneath when/if you ever sell.
Sounded very NOT cheap to me. At all.
Nice touches. Clean. Unique.
Bike looks great!
Nice , good to get it how you want it ,merry Christmas to you and vie ,😁👍
Looks great! I liked the red, I had a fireblade in those colors, but yours is unique.
Just wanted to say, that I much prefer the color scheme, you chose for it too. Very nice.
Sweet ride!!!
Lol I saw later Vids. Keep it up. Although Ive done almost 1800km 2 weeks no issues. I wanted heated grips but warranty
Looks great 👍!. It's great for zipping around town. ENJOY. merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 Salud.
Thanks, you too!
Great bike!
It looks great
Great Colors & upgrades Lucas. Bet the 300cc really goes..! Cheers Mate..👍
Thanks 👍
Upgrading the rear shock is the best mod u can make to the CRF!! Dooooo it brother!! At the very least, you should fully load up the current rear shock. I see a lot of sag when you sit down and not much rebound. Ride for a while as is, them make a video after you upgrade! Nice channel.. :)
Bike looking good mate!
Nice job ! Enjoy ...
Fits you well, my brother loves his L Model in America.
Cool ocean blue color. Hate the red too. Lots off fun
Merry Christmas Lucas and Vee.
love it R4K great job especially the tyres I would also add a front handle bar visor keep of the flies and dust
Nice ride Lou. 👍
Great looking bike!
Brings back great memories of my offroad motorcross riding 30 years ago and regular trips to the accident and emergency Department lol
Looks great 👍
Beautiful bike ,like the wrapping
Thanks 👍
Nice. Perfect size.
Thank you very useful information
You turned that bike into a SuperMoto Yamaha!! :D Nice to see anyways! Good job! 20 bucks for upholstery, awesome! Now some wheelies!!
Now your Honda looks like a Yamaha! LOL looks great!! Have a fun!!
Looks good!
I'm in agreement on the tires. I had bought a set of Heidenau K60's for my CRF250L, before I sold it this past summer...knowing that I will be buying another one in the future, and now that Honda has come out with the 300, it will likely be sooner than later, inventory in Canada permitting. I never really liked the red seat either, but that blue...hmmm, I'd have gone red and black maybe.
Looking forward to updates on the bike...sub'd.
It looks good.
I've used the G-2 Throttle Tamer and it works well at smoothing an abrupt throttle.
Yeah, it sounds wonderful, can't wait to get it.
It came out nice , and smart to rap it to save the original under
Great video. Enjoy following your life/adventures. Do they have any 'official' off road tracks/race courses in Pattaya?
Yes, there are a few.
Again, I'm both Jealous and Happy for you. For me, it's tween that and the new Kawasaki KX300SM which is a direct and able competitor to the Honda.
There are many nice small ccm bike in Thailand. Unfortunately they are not available in Europe. I had a nice 300ccm Kawasaki Ninja
Wowww i loved it. Ride safe Sir, 🇵🇭
Looks good
Nice ride, personalizing bikes are a never ending quest.... have fun and keep the rubber side down
Thanks! Will do!
I have noticed the last couple years many are putting street tires on dirt bikes .Many have changed to a smaller rim also ,,and they move very quickly, lol,,here in the states ,,,Hello from south Louisiana!,,new to the channel &enjoying ☆☆
Cheers mate, very informative..what other bikes did you consider before making this choice?
Nice bike......I have an Honda XR 250 in Cambodia...... converted that to a big wheel..... I'm currently in Pattaya will show you pictures if I see you 😁
New toy happy boy! Nice!
Oh yeah!
Nice looking bike now
Enjoy your new bike!! (just a comment for the algo lol)
great video and i was skeptical but your colour change was a definite improvement , more like Rothmans Honda
Haven't seem your content before
how long you been in Thailand and do you have a video explaining why you live there because i went Bangkok in 2007 and the pollution was terrible but the people AMAZINGLY KIND .
Keep safe buddy
its your bike do what you want!!!
The bike looks great for riding the streets of Thailand, great colour scheme, better than the loud red colour scheme.
Making me pine away for my long-gone DT-1.
One prediction: when rainy season returns and that red dirt turns slick and sticky, you'll want the knobby back on.
Bike looks really good. i like the wrap idea. bargain getting the seat covered for b600 - I paid AUS 200 earlier this year to get a bike seat covered. Please don't be offended but I don't think the graphics/stickers/decals add anything to the overall look of the bike. In fact, they distract from the clean lines. Anyway, looking forward to seeing you get around town and off road on it. Hope you and Vee have a lovely Christmas Cheers Marc
Nice touch the tires. Ka.
Being an old school super bike guy. It would be tough to choose a small bike for daily use.
Of course I don't know the traffic conditions there. I'd be drawn to a DRZ400sm.
That was an entertaining video, thanks.
Good luck with your new ride.👍
I've had several dual sports. Both big and small bore. 6'3" 250lbs and honestly I have way more fun wringing a small bikes neck on the trails and street than I do riding around conservatively with a 450.

Always nice to have that extra grunt in reserve.
I find that it saves my ass more often than getting me in trouble.
Also considering the 2up thing.
I've been riding my 400sm back and forth to work. It's a great rain bike. Grip is predictable and slides are easily controllable.
With the gas prices. I save $15 a day.
Good luck ✌️
Cheers.
Nice make over on your new bike.. The only difference between the men and the boys is the price of their toys.. 👍
The bike looks great. Great customization. Very good idea to get road tires, now it is more like a super moto. I would still get rid of the huge number plate holder. There must be available a good looking fender eleminator
Yes, there are some on the market already, want that too.
your a yamaha man at heart...
I just ordered the G2 throttle tamer for my Kawasaki z900RS. Hopefully smooth out the binary on/off feel the throttle has at speeds. Mine should arrive in the next couple of days and I will interested in how the G2 Throttle would for your Duel Sport. Bike looks great, I like the blue better too.
Nice to get your bike the way you want it. Personally I would have replaced the tires when they wore out or when the novelty of playing in the dirt wore off, but Safety first.
Answer to your previous video about the 95 fuel vs 91 fuel.
I have searched many sites, and can't find a recommended fuel.
As a bike mechanic Honda are one of the few manufacturers in the world that have produced bikes that run well on 91 RON fuel.
That said I have a couple of honda bikes and I always run 98 RON fuel in them. The higher the rated fuel, the cleaner the burn, which means less deposits left behind in the combustion chamber. Trust me, you bike will appreciate the higher octane fuel, even if the increased power is not noticeably evident.
Good luck with your new bike
Bike is looking good. We loved your Condo search Vlogs and the rating system you used. Plus your weight loss was spectacular and uplifting. I can't see a cost of living Vlog or how you met Vee in the videos. Anyway, Bye
.......for now.
