Hey Keefer, your Videography team need to turn the audio levels up on your conversations . They have been low the last few videos. Just letting you know that l have to turn my TV almost all the way up to hear you guys . 😀

Thanks for doing this. Love all the information from the different riders.

The shootout we’ve all been waiting for 😎

So awesome to get a lady perspective! And this is absolutely just the video I needed. I am also trying to decide between these two bikes. I have 04 yz250f .. thought I knew I wanted a new yz250f but not sure after seeing how nice the crf is

There's gotta be a way to make these videos just a little louder...other then that I always really enjoy these

Keefer is the man🤘🔥 answers emails quick! He has a badass podcast going into incredible detail about bikes and rider etiquette.

Best shootout video I’ve ever seen

Definitely need more vids like this

Thank you for this video and ur own opinions and giving ur opinions on others opinions

Excellent, in depth, detailed. enjoyable comparison video! This was extremely helpful to me. I'm looking at buying four bikes, one for each family member and I'm considering the YZ. I'm seeing LOTS of positive reviews for this Yamaha. It seems to be preferred by many riders, compared to all the other bikes. Thank You All, for this excellent video.

My son rode the 22 this past weekend. The CRF is a lot better but we are staying Blue. YZF still has the bottom end torque and superior suspension.

Never clicked a video so fast

I appreciate bringing the opinion of Michael, cause he’s like most of us (weekend warriors). I can never relate to the Pro’s who have a lot of experience and team behind them to dial the bike to every situation. I ride 2017 Yamaha yz450f and don’t need the need for a new bike, it’s all the bike I need. Riding style deserts racing and some Baja. I would like too see more reviews of average riders. The GYTR is a great addition to this bikes.

I love how in the end of the video the Hondas number plate looks like it’s gonna fall off, I have the Honda with 4 hours on it so far I love the bike, but they definitely lost some top end power trying the add to the low end…

That Keefer inc FXR gear is beautiful . I hope Kris has more input in future design. PAY THAT MAN HIS MONEY

How do you guys rate suspension & handling when the bikes need stiffer springs?

Do more of Sophia she was awesome and made a lot of sense. So refresh to here from a girl that knows what she is talking about.

I love the look of the yk more than the Honda but I love Hondas, i love both bike equallyish and deciding what to get, any thoughts?

Hi guys I cant find that fox cap with the litlle fox logo nowhere ? Any lead anyone maybe ? Tx

Yamaha YZ250F bike of the year straight up.

The. 2t sound in the background is the best, hands down. Good knowledgeable break down by all the testers, very impressed, def should get more women like, that’ll channel, she knows her stuff. I still don’t understand why manufacturers don’t do what Kawi does and have a 2 position foot peg, position, adjustment, (I know they probably saving costs), but it’s 22 and not all pegs fit into round holes, seems a major weakness on the Yamaha, big bike small cockpit.

Thank for the great video. I'm loving the way the 22 Honda turns with SAG set at 103.5 but what I can't seem to find is a good feel over breaking bumps (my suspension (Enzo) with a few extra bits valved for a B rider with springs for my weight). Whether it's decelerating or attacking I feel like it's dancing and sending way to much pogo feel up my arms. Thoughts?

I agree with Keefer the Yamaha air filter doesn't seal very good at all

I went from a slightly modded 19' Honda to a 21' Yami, already ordered a 22' Crf. Have to shift more on yamaha, yes it has meat but it runs out quick, my Honda i could hold 3rd gear to the next turn, it revved and kept on pulling, yzf flattens out up top. And the Honda will out corner the yami everywhere on the track, and thats the 19, the 22 will be even better. Suspension isnt much better if at all from the 19' Honda. Yami is a good bike but imo, Honda pulls longer, more flickable, and i had more fun on red. Held a 3 digit National # Currently a 45+ Vet A rider

Wow been waiting for this video. These are my top two 250s that I would choose from, I love the new honda and would love to switch back, but currently on a Yamaha and think im still gonna go with the new yz250f

I thought for sure that last guy would pick the Honda. Both are super solid bikes either way. I wish I wasn't so fat. Would love to go back to a 250f

Chris is the man, rumor has it he’s a good tipper and really good at scrabble.

We got the Honda an I’m glad we did, had to get lighter springs an revalve, it’s so much better feel my kid says! Now hearing all of this I’m glad we did go with the Honda! We been yamaha for five years now an he decided to go red!

The Honda is much more beautiful 🤩

Would you recomend these as a beginner/ first dirt bike ?

You won't be disappointed by them Yammer-Cycles

Glad to hear the Suzuki is the winner this year!

Allen would do the Eli Tomac goon dance perfectly! Looks just like him

Does the 110 rear tire fit ok on the stock rim or do you have to go to a wider wheel?

The real question is: You can buy one of these bikes and then throw another $3k into it... which one are you taking racing, and what mods did you do?

Yamaha just builds good shit

Bikes are life

The Yamaha 250 is better because it's almost twice the price of Honda CRF250R, atleast in my country. For pro racing go with the Yamaha, for outdoor activities, the honda is good enough.

What about woods bikes ?

Forgive my lack of knowledge but does the Yamaha need changing oil every 20hrs of riding?

Yam has best service air filter

Sorry but when I pull my clutch in I don’t want to pull it all the way to the bar. Plus Yamaha has always had a good clutch feel.

How can i afford this bike I'm from india 😔🇮🇳

fix the volume...

LETS GO TEAM GREEN!

Can anyone tell if the Honda still had the Pirelli's?

18-20 yzf timing chains were a disaster and cost clients a fortune. Looks like new 21-22 is fixed thank good ness

Very quiet but the bikes sound so good

Hope Honda wins

You need to get your audio worked out. I get it commercials are part of it, but it went from not being able to hear to busting eardrums when a commercial comes on, that is problematic. Elementary production, and I know you can afford it.

Buy radiator braces for the Honda

Hey Kris need more mic volume m8

Sophie has a future in commentating. She's cool.

Reliability of Honda?

19:19 “that’s good we need a little bigger guy in this” Me being 6,4 240 😑

horses for courses. Learn either one and you'll be absolutely flying.

If it revs slower then it Is slower. It has less hp. and turning off the throttle is not recommended during racing...... ok, you can do it so you can get the bike into a turn.

If I over jump a large jump I will take Yamaha The Honda tends to makes me feel I am going off track

You guys are adapting your ride style to the bike, there's a lot of tuning that needs to be done.. if the bike is bucking the suspension needs tuning. You should be confident on that bike if it's bouncing you around there's something wrong

Bro with a Quarter million Subscribers you would think you guys could afford a better Microphone so we can hear you better when your talking

250f’s are so much fun. None of my vet friends with 450’s want to ride every weekend.

Keefer is a Kawasaki fan

The handling and ergonomics are so much better on the Honda

I weigh 200lbs. Should I get a 250 or 450

❤❤❤❤❤

I can't tell if thats your son, or "Partner" but you guys really do an awesome job. I looks like you have your hand on his lower back the whole time, I love to see people who care for each other so much... or perhaps you are controlling him like a ventriloquist's doll? Anyway I got a 2021 YZ250 earlier in the year because Keefer sold me on them...

Honda team

Honda has a crf250 that's air cooled that would be a good bike for women. It's lower and not as loud so they won't get scared

Whatever racer x is doing with their microphone volume it sucks ass it's so quiet

Yamaha

Let's Go Brandon!!

Turn your mic up keef

People tell me all the time I ride like Jett Lawrence

i have a honda CRF205

Hope Suzuki wins 😉

My iPad is full volume and not sure what you’re talking about

You never need to change the oil on the Yamaha or wash it, or put gas in it.

They both need new mufflers ASAP

Outside of Keefer wearing honda gear this is the most biased review ever. Put bike we are picking in the front, stand in front of the one we don't want to choose. I don't think any negative about the yamaha went without a Keefer comment counter how its good for Yamaha somehow and throwing some negative about the honda.

Sooo. Me being 6'4", 230lbs i probably shouldn't buy a 250.

I,m a revver , and later i,m a old Guy who wants to lug ???

Yamaha YZ anything, dominates all.

😥😥😥😥😥😥😫

That Honda sure seemed to be bouncing around a lot seeing you said that it was good for that track. The Yamaha seemed more balanced which I also see at local tracks. I hear the Honda still is nervous up front or twitchy like it has been known for. Also quit saying the Yamaha feels so big cause like other test riders on other forums have said they have measured and there really is no difference. They think it’s a sight thing cause ppl see no gas cap and makes it look bigger. Yet when you look at ppl with their legs out their foot is just as close to the front wheel. She said she hopped off a Kawasaki and the Honda feels the same with that said I’ve hopped off the Yamaha to the Kawasaki and didn’t feel any difference. My friends said the same. Also I really don’t understand how your test riders are getting engine braking on the Yamaha. Don’t know what map you are using but my friends sure don’t have that problem also that bike turns on everything and is amazing at doing everything. I have a 450 but that 250 is definitely fun and fast. My son has a yz250 which had over 160hrs before rebuild in the motor and the valves still within their specs. Close to 200hrs as of now.

I can barely hear you

Horrible audio

Contradictions abound.

Stock 250f pipes sound like garbage

To much bs, not enough riding

FJB LETS GO BRANDON.. YEA I SAID OT TWICE

4 strokes suck

Kawasaki suck.. always has, Kawasakis are good but the stock suspension is complete garbage. I'd rather ride a Honda I like Yamaha I don't know I just want a bike with the suspension system that doesn't throw me off and run through the track without throwing me off and you're not going to get that from a Kawasaki or Yamaha. Honda is 😂 a little bit better but none of them can perform out of the box they all need suspension work to get go around the track

Yamaha for sure I have a Yamaha and my son has a Honda and now he wants to sale the Honda and get a Yamaha

Yami drain feels weird nd feels real heavy and wide Honda and kawi feel the best

Butt butt butt YAMAHA the 👌 best 😊
