Yes it seems they are

and for around world trip as Steph Jeavons did with her 250L.

As long as you are 100lbs and do some suspension upgrades in Utah.

certainly not with this small tank on the other hand

The grom is great for the city! And yes I’d agree this bike is much more off-road oriented

KLX 300 SM if you need more street than dirt

Have you looked at the Husky Svart 401?

@@MrRourk it isn’t available in Europe

Yes I’d like to try it!

Totally agree!

Awesome, very nice indeed

Thanks buddy. Yes I think the speedo must be faulty 😏

It's well documented on KZfaq at 59mph it blurs out.

Great points there, sure that paint will come in handy!

This issue is going to bite us soon in the UK too - with the planned "anti-tampering" laws which are on their way. I really object to heavy-handed politics telling me what I can and can't do to something that I own 😔. It also spells disaster for the huge aftermarket industry and will cause the loss of so many businesses.

Didn’t know about that!

There’s certainly a lot of places to go green laning there!

What speed limit with the Drakeford Dragon impose on green lanes? 4mph and a man in the front with a flag?

man I've got a 2019 road king.. and since i bought the 300l i never even started the road king I only use it for off road and this thing is a beauty

I'm just 70kg and suspension is perfect as stock. I love the saggy feel of the bike.

Oh no! I dropped my Harley once on the stand! More than once but that tome it fell. 👍🏼👍🏼

@@MrDarcy-OlMan Riding 30 miles to 1st service tomorrow, can't wait.

Awesome! Certainly is!

Honda being Honda!

For sure

Thanks buddy

Sounds pretty good to me 👌🏻

Really? Readily available? Hasn’t been any available in my area. Waiting lists after placing 10% deposit with no projected delivery date.

Thank you! His was the crf250rx which was the hardcore enduro racing bike. He realised it was a bit too much and that he wasn’t particularly enjoying it. Plus from a content point of view no one was interested so we have to think of that too.

@@MrDarcy-OlMan ok, comprende

That would be awesome, hopefully

I’ve not ridden the small one but yes it’s not the best for very long journeys

Sure is

Glad to hear they come in after a year wait. That means I only have 3 months to go before mine arrives. The dealers must be even more frustrated, thinking how many they could sell if they only had them.

Excellent. Hard to say; we don’t get much choice in the uk in this style of bike.

Kawasaki KLX 300

Yes he would, although I think he’d agree they suit this bike

Yes not the best

@@MrDarcy-OlMan Glad you were given a chance to notice.

That sucks!

Yes we did, and no not really. I hadn’t ridden it though so I wanted to give it a go

it now comes in grey perfect for stealth camping!

Probably not tbh. Bikes nowadays are more stifled by emissions regs

Yes this is more off-road focused than on road I think

not to mention that it has a very weak frame, I had a 2013 Crf250L, Learned a lot riding it because it was my first tallish bike, with my 32-inch inseam it was ok but once you get the hang of it and start to increase speed on those green lanes the rear suspension is the equivalent of a pogo stick. the front dives a lot during breaking and for a person like me who many times couldn't fully flat foot it, it can put you easily off balance and drop the bike. The frame is very weak at the foot pegs attachment brackets, if you drop it on a rocky terrain there's a chance to bend in the frame on that AREA, mine did at it was a fall from a standstill. the subframe was also a weak point but it was expected on this type of motorcyclce. on the older models, there was a placard saying not to put any luggage that weights more than 5kg behind the pillion portion of the seat if I was mistaken. some managed to crack the subframe but on the early models, it really wasn't an issue because it can be easily replaced by removing a few bolts and it wasn't expensive at that time. but on the New models, the rear subframe is permanently welded to the frame and I really do like that on a dual-sport. It isn't a powerhouse but the motor is easy and fun to work on, the valve adjustment is really easy to do as you don't need to remove the camshaft and mess with any alignment.

Husky 701 SM... Very Light... Very Fast.. Very Nimble... And if you are not 7 foot tall - you can get lowering kits....

@@madpete6438 But damn expensive due to no real competition left.

@@krasky Heck yes - but Honda is always a bit expensive....... Mind you I have 2x Honda GB 500's.... Nice bikes and a Husky Vitpilen. Honda is good at competent motorcycles but they do not make exciting motorcycles (Like the Vitpilen) - The sort you hop on and it eggs you on, makes charging at winding country roads seem so normal and easy...

This is uk

Honda specs in US shows US MPG. Since our standard gallon is slightly smaller than the UK gallon our MPG is slightly lower.

Yes a 350 would be nice

500 would be great! I doubt that a jump from 300 to 350 would really be noticeable. The jump from the CRF250L to the CRF300L should probably not be noticeable either.

@@krasky The 300 feels a bit quicker than the 250, riders say. I think a 350 would feel better. More torque. A 450. Now, that would be great. But not the one they offer which needs servicing every fve minutes.

It is but it’s very light so it doesn’t feel as low as it sounds

Maybe, but I 'd happily accept that as a trade of for the service interval. Changing oil every monday isn't my dream of fun.

It can do 80mph pretty easily. Probably will go a bit higher but feels a little unstable at that speed

I wonder if they will do a 500 that would brill

No idea, they aren’t interested in lending us bikes :(

@@MrDarcy-OlMan yehh suzuki seem to be of the mentality 'we make great products, we don't need to advertise'. But now the drz has competition, they can simply drop in a 6 speed and EFI and blow them away. They don't even need much R&D

Everyone has an opinion. Everyone’s needs and expectations are different. Everyone has different riding styles. There is no such thing as a unicorn, only what most closely matches up to your individual requirements.

@@michiganmoto7687 opinions? ...i stated a couple facts. But tell us of your Honda purchase. Give us your facts uncovered. If no facts, tell us how you ride it and what is awesome about it, besides the old "its a Honda" line, which offers no insight on today's bikes.

Lol it's really not that serious. There are people that just want to hit the trails without having to change their oil every 600 miles. For every loser flexing on KZfaq there is someone riding something like a tw200 or trail 125 who is thinking the 300l would be a nice upgrade.

@@Largetalons Lol, If you don't race a race-ready bike, you don't follow a race maintenance schedule...to the loser believing the "Best Dual Sports" bike, is equal to best cheap mini-bikes.

Hi! I say my height in the video. Weight was about 80kg when this was filmed

@@MrDarcy-OlMan sory sir my inglish is 🤭. Thank you sir 🖐️

I can’t actually remember tbh with you

Nope I’m afraid not

6ft 1

Yes but you’ll be on tiptoes when you stop. The supermoto version is a bit lower

33 inch inseam at 5,7? Wow! Im 5,8 with 30 inseam and I have the Rally 250. Im on the balls of my feet when sitting in the bike. Don’t think you’d have any issue.

@@alelectric2767 Thanks brother now i feel a bit more confident.

WR is better than both new offerings.

KLX is not available in EU due to missing ABS and WR is discontinued. DRZ is not being sold as well, so Honda is the only choice in EU.

💯😎

Nah man its too low for me, I had to buy a new shock. The engine is not bored... its the 286 cc from the cbr300. Take it easy.

Depends on your weight but it is quite a tall bike 👍🏼

Thanks very much. We’re not fans of Itch Boots tbh but I know she’s popular 👍🏼
