Everyone thinks Honda XR400's and XR250's are great... but they don't make them any more and not having electric start really sucks.
Today we answer the question can a CRF250F do Enduro ?

That’s pretty much all I ride with my 250f. It keeps up with my buddies ktm300 at a fraction of the price, and everything else. Its 90% rider

Thanks mate, the 250F is no bantam weight but it holds its weight quite low, so when riding you certainly don’t notice it as much. Its surprisingly nimble and flickable on the trails.

Only knock with my 450 is how it dies so easy in low speed then the engine heats up. I'd love to have a yz-125 with a 144 kit. That's all anyone truly needs unless your a pro... The 40hp bike that's 200# instead of 60hp and 250 is much easier to ride all day not to mention safer. Imma big fan of the 350 to bad no Jap companies build one that would be the perfect bike. Maybe add a heavy flywheel and 6speed wide ratio tranny that would be awesome too

Hey Benny, what did you do to the exhaust, sounds awesome and I wanna do it to mine.

@TeamBennyRides Жыл бұрын

Take the baffle out, carefully cut around the spot welds holding the mesh spark arrestor, slide the spark arrestor off, cut the baffle at the end closest to the outlet leaving enough to slide the mesh spark arrestor back on,( about 1 inch) clamp it back in place or in my case it was tight enough to just stay on by itself. Effectively you are removing the small pea-shooter baffle on the inside by cutting it off and you will be left with the large chrome end of the pipe and a slightly smaller pipe in the middle with a mesh spark arrestor still on the inside. Removing the whole baffle sounds horrible so this way you still have the bigger pipe of the baffle still there. Once you unbolt the baffle/end cap and have a good look at it you will understand exactly what I’m trying to explain. Bolt the end cap back on and bingo. Cheap, FREE ! mod to make it breathe easier and sounds way better 👍

If your “TRAIL RIDING”, go for the 250F all day ! The suspension will be fine for your weight 👍 The power is surprisingly good for this bike, you’ll end up embarrassing your friends on their 250r’s as it is a very capable trail bike !
