CRF250L Off Road / Enduro Test Ride Crash 

I put the Ohlins shock on mine, did the Racetech spring kit up front, geared it 13/42, and added Motoz Enduro I/T tires. Night and day. Check Pro Pilot suspension in NJ, they will customize the Ohlins for your size, terrain and riding style and ship her out. Less than $700 for a remote reservoir shock with full adjustment. The Motoz tires are barely DOT and kind of scary on pavement but beast mode on dirt. A less aggressive set, and not scary on pavement, from looking at the terrain in your vid would be some MT-21s. I also unhooked my EJK. It didn't do anything useful for me on the rocky trails except burn more gas. I had the Acerbis tank but went back to stock to slim up the profile of the bike and drop weight. Speaking of which, the bottom line for me is this is a great dual sport, an average dirt bike, a good trail bike. It's just heavier than it needs to be but it has its good points. I've had it up and down the mountains here in PA where about every trail is a rock garden and with the suspension update it was great. The low seat height is nice on the tricky sections. Only downside is the weight if you start to tip or it gets squirrelly on severe off camber sections. But all in all real fun. Oh I also added an under bar Scott's Damper using an unofficial kit you can get from Eric from Scotts, but you'll need to use Rox 2in risers to do it and bars with a bend no higher than about 3.65" With HD tubes I run at 12 psi off-road without a rim lock. The bike doesn't really have enough juice to spin a tire on the rim in my experience. Maybe if it was geared even lower that might be an issue. Other mods were Fastway Evo III foot pegs in the low boy position. I have 34" inseam. They helped comfort but increase control quite a bit in letting you have a stable base for throwing your body position around. I got a seat concepts seat that is very comfy but I think I'm going to ditch it for the Spiral Tall option. It's better than the butt torture device stock one but keeps a slim profile to make moving on the bike easy. On Amazon there is a supplier that sells a set of folding levers for the CRF250L about $25. I got those. Three finger levers and have held up. I cut the tip off the stock brake pedal and installed an Outlaw Racing folding tip. $20 on Amazon. I also replaced the stock shifter with an OEM CRF150R folding tip shifter. I got that because it's steel versus the aftermarket aluminum ones. Hit me up if you want to chat about any of this stuff. I did a lot of trial and error.

All my 9 years of riding dirt bikes, mostly 150crf 2013, 230crf 2019, YZ250 2016, 250LX 2020, I've never crashed my newer bikes that I got but even IF I crashed my 150crf I would never crash like this BOI made me laugh everytime i see this video. Never change your engine or muffler if it's not stock, if so just switch the S3 PO and move the PSI to 24 IO

Nice video! I totally agree, the stock tires on the CRF250L are total garbage. I have a set of Kenda K270's at home waiting to get put on mine... I just have to stop being lazy and actually do it :)

Please read the video description. After further testing this bike off road, IMO the most beneficial mods to this bike for this type of riding are (in order of importance): * Tires * Gearing * Suspension * Exhaust/EJK/Airbox

sweet video

do you think your dad will ride again? or is he done for now

Curious, how much do you weigh?

Uhhh....maybe some good tires??

The stock tyres are not the best. However they are not that bad either, your crash was unavoidable no matter what tyres you were running.

Next time buy a 250l Rally and get a rebel 300 and add in a 250l like me in my channel than you’ll get more views you fake channel
