I love my CRF300 Rally. I purchased all the H2C Honda parts from Thailand, where the bike is manufactured. My local Honda Dealership, Dallas Honda, installed and set up everything, and it performs like a dream. This is my favorite off-road bike. Thanks for showing us you mods. I will probably get some of them for my Rally.
I just bought a 24 rally I’m 245 lbs did all the performance mods I’m 59 years old not into the jumping and acting a fool yes the bike is not powerful I came off a 450 L that bike just was too torquey this bike I sent fast and it I sent powerful I live in pa ride a lot of single track in are mountains the rally is not going to get you there fast but that bike will get you there love the vids you put out and I love my rally not mad I got rid of my 450
I really like your brisk presentation style. Most RU-vidrs that I watch across a broad spectrum of topics could learn a lot from how you do it. I suppose it’s partly the editing and partly a bunch of other factors that I can’t even identify. Half of these guys use twice as many words as they need to. They’re constantly doubling back on things they’ve already said and repeating themselves, all while not even explaining things all that well. Their intros are long,meandering and meaningless. And their cold opens-mother of Santa Clause,do I ever loathe the cold open of the average RU-vidr. And at the end of the video,most find it almost impossible to shut it down! They ramble on and on. And on. And on;working their way through multiple levels of meaningless outros. You,on the other hand,are just like “see ya.”
I like the brisk presentation and the mods are all interesting to see. I just wonder why people buy a bike and then feel the need to spend almost 3K on “stuff” to “make it work” for them. Why not buy a bike that suits you in the first place? I think the marketers for accessories see us all coming at times.
really great video and thanks for sharing! a bike that is too small is better than a bike that is too big...IMO. I have owned yam 250, crf450l, yam 450 and for ME, I prefer the ktm 500. If the Honda 300/450 could get close to 260 lbs and not be all plugged up with govscam epa junk, I might be more interested. I have a GPX 300r and its so underpowered and parts are such a pain, my new policy is, if I can't order parts from rocky mtn atvmc, I'm not buying that bike. The GPX has taught me I will NOT like the kove 450. But if honda or yamaha came out with a similar small adv bike, I might bite, but for now I'm staying with my ktm 500 for this niche, it also doubles as my snowbike. but my real love is a 300 two stroke and for ADV a tenere 700. so...the ktm 500 doesn't get ridden much.
Lowering the back end should make the front end lighter given it increases fork rake and transfers weight balance backwards. Not saying what you are feeling isn't true, just that it doesn't make sense in theory.
I highly recommend swapping those upper crash guards for the SRC Moto skid plate/lower crash guard. There are countless examples of the rally tower bending/twisting even from minor tipovers from the ones you have. Also a $20 headlight guard would save a lot of money replacing the headlight/windshield area when a rock gets flung at you
Hey brother. My name is Gus Wolf. I work for Southern Honda Powersports, the world’s largest Honda Powersports dealer. Thank you for your content. I appreciate this kind of stuff and sharing these with my customers. I am currently custom building a CRF450RL Dakar concepts bike. Would love for you to come down to check it out and give me your thoughts. Chattanooga, Tennessee. Stay safe and keep up the good work.
@@normkiessling4490my point exactly, his mods are all for the highway, he should've bought a more road oriented bike. Versys 300 has 39HP. You just need to rev it to get the power. It's Japanese, it loves to rev. Most people only have 15hp throttle hand. All those mods are detracting from the offroad performance, which is already limited. Maybe mods give him a sense of achievement. Should've put the time/money into suspension and tires.
Tire swap? Unnecessary. Stock are just fine. Ride them out. Pegs? Just fine. No need to change them. The OEM ones are not that narrow and $110 is a rip-off for the absurd ones featured here. The bike is not that tall when you sit on it. Pretty sure lowering is spelled lowering, not loweing as you have on the video. The Flatland is a nice skid plate. Shift lever is just fine. No need to waste money on replacing the stock one. Again, poor spelling/grammar: "Loud volume in 10 second" should be in "10 seconds". All around poor suggestions and poor presentation. Can't take anything here seriously.
