I called Honda Powersports Chattanooga TN 9/28/2001 looking for the 2021 CRF300L Rally. Was told two to three months wait. They called next day and delivered it to me 9/30/2021. I saved $1700 over another dealer in GA. No dealer fees, no delivery fees. MSRP and $30 administrative fee only. I called 10 other dealers and no one had one of these in stock and did not know when they would get one. My salesman was Gus and very pleased with this purchase/service by dealer.

Excellent review, thanks. I think it's a better deal than the CRF300L because suspension costs so much to upgrade. Between the shock and the forks, you're looking at $1,500 to $2,000 range. If you were to upgrade the ECU and eek more HP out of this bike, it seems like it could be the unicorn bike - plus, an exhaust that lets it breathe.

The KLX300 just seems to be a good honest all around bike with a great suspension for the price. The CRF300l seems to be the same really but needs help in the suspension department. The vs videos say the Honda has a little more torque at lower rpms that the KLX but the numbers are so close it's not worth a debate. Nice video and a good job on the practical aspects of the bike. The KLX is ready to ride in my opinion so I'm leaning that way but price usually determines what way I go.

My klx300 picked up some grunt, just pulling the snorkel. Added a Delkevic 14" Stubby SS Oval, which retains the o2 bung, and it picked up even more power (even running the included sparky insert), with no sign of lean condition, and no tuner. The sparky is quieter than the "street baffle", with great sound that's still pretty quiet at steady throttle.

I bet that KLX feels pretty damn quick compared to my little CRF250 rally. 8hp + 5tq more, those few horsepower are hard to come by in these little motors & the Kawasaki is about 40 lb lighter than the CRF it would dust my bike I even told him damn I'm going to be jealous 😂

I wish Kawasaki made an ADV version of the KLX300 with a 6 gallon fuel tank, large rear rack, bash plate, fuel gauge, hopefully switchable ABS, and maybe a few little improvements such as larger pegs and maybe LED lights all around. A lightweight 400cc single would be ideal for me. Kudos for making the gray camo. Not everyone has the aesthetics of a teenage Japanese boy. That lime green... ugh. At least it isn't orange. 😁

It's the less annoying version of the Loud Pipes Save Lies myth. On the other hand, conspicuity lighting improves motorcycle safety and bright yellow lights and/or flashing lights result in fewer "I didn't see you!" accidents.

Without riding it I know this...Overweight and underpowered.

For the kind of bike it is I don't find the weight to be an issue. It definitely needs to be uncorked though. People are reporting really good results by just taking out the airbox snorkel and putting on an exhaust

Thats bull too. You stated that yourself. Weight plants the back wheel. Funny how everyone comments and are better engineers than Kawasaki Heavy Industry employs.
