Hi Is there not also a difference in seat height ?

Hi! what camera are you using and are you doing color correction in post production?

you need a new kickstand with the level 2 also.

The coolvest don't work in hot weather, i've tried it here in Thailand and its a waste of money, i do pretty much the same except for that i have tube going from my camelback into the helmet to squirt some water onto my head, about every 15 min when i go offroad.

Fair enough, i just sold me 250 Rally a few days ago, which i done 52000 clicks with, completely stock bike, so i'm looking around which dealer has a 300 in stock, greetings from Thailand, good review.

i keep seeing this as like the best beginner bike because it's cheap, reliable and it's easy to learn on which you know i'm all for as being a guy that's gonna get his motorcycle license but i'm also six foot and 290. i don't think this little bike could handle me properly. I could be wrong. A long as it can get 65 on highway without killing the bike haha

What do you think about the stock tank? Would you recommend upgrading to the larger tank if you were traveling cross country or does the stock tank offer enough range? Thanks for this awesome video.

Tesco rant, lol! Made me laugh 😅 great vid, nice to see different bits of the world. Thanks

It has no power, can get a drz400 even a dr650 that weighs the same or 20lbs more, a lot more bike and proper power.

Sarap, my kind of therapy.

Can you do a vid of it riding underwater, really deep, even for a short time, how long can it stay working? flash flood? underwater? threw river/ coss stream /survival/does it need modifications to do this/ what are its limitations?

how do you find the engine heat?this bike is the first on my list,but many say about too much engine heat,and i live in a hot country.the good thing is that i wont drive in a city.i live in country side.

what exhaust?

Hmmm…. Prefer your commentary actually. The captions are handy but yeah, prefer the previous format 🤷🏻‍♂️

way way cheaper than a car I am saving up for a xr150l or this one I don't like highways or interstates

Hello!!! Ive got a question, which top case are you using?? Ive been looking for one like this for a while. Thank you

Is the CRF300L/RALLY better than the Suzuki Vstrom 250SX?

I bought a 300 Rally like a month ago, drove just over 1500km during this time, and it became my favorite bike so far. I usually spend summers travelling on my other bike, big heavy cruisers are great and all, but they don't provide the level of freedom that this thing does. I kinda regret not buying it before my vacations started haha. I never really drove off-road, even when i had a CRF250L a couple of years back, it was just my daily commuter to and from work, but I tried the 300 Rally on some gravel roads and trails yesterday and it was great. Easy to ride, easy to manouver. I don't know, it's just that after years of riding motorcycles weighting 250-350 kg, this feels refreshing.

Is the Honda TransAlp available in the Philippines? In the United States it’s $9,999. Set up as more of a touring bike from the factory but if properly equipped (more aggressive tires) could be an amazing off road bike. 750cc is considered rather stout compared to this 300cc Rally and the suspension is much better so you don’t have to spend another $1,000 to upgrade. It is about $3,800 more but has standard ABS, more than double the power and just looks badass other than the headlight design. Down side, heavier, no cruise control or tubeless tires which is expected at this level of a bike and only gets 48MPG so about 200 miles on a tank. I think the Rally gets over 70MPG and has a bigger tank. It’s a matter of what suits your needs. The TransAlp is a legend in Europe though.

Thanks for review hi from ireland

I just went from stock to RR Level 1 front and rear, and the bike has completely transformed. The front kit is a must. Great video!🤙

Bruuuuh can't find one under 7k USD in Cambodia (also in Southeast Asia). Or under 4k for older 250 rally. New or used

What country are you in? It is absolutely beautiful. I am very jealous.

Great vid but I’m still torn between the 300L and the Rally. I live in rural Alaska. A lot of rugged trails, but I’m 49 years old so not going ballz to the wall on them. 300 L is a bit lighter, but, I would add the after market windscreen and bigger tank bringing the weight up slightly, and not as much plastic to break. And, that’s starting to equal out in cost for either bike anyway. Struggling with that. Thanks for the video!

Hmm I spoke to John Mitchinson of Rally Raid who said the level 2 shock on its own should be fine, no need to upgrade the forks just because of the shock change. But I’ll find out soon!

Highway speed is 75 mph ,where I live ,that bike can't comfortably do that ,all day long ,is the reason I won't buy one

In Canada it the price difference is $900+tax extra for the Rally. These are the benefits of the Rally and what it would roughly cost, plus taxes, and possibly labour for those technically incompetent. + Aftermarket larger gas tank $400 + Larger front break $200 + LED headlights +$800 + Windscreen $100 + Comfortable seat $??? + USB port $50 + AUX front cable $50 + Better paint coatings ??? + Wind protection fairings/plastic engine guards ...the plastics are meant to be cracked to some degree. (and engine guards are typically worse if you get into an accident with them) Negatives - $900 more - 30-33 pounds more (so drive with a 1/2 tank and consider trimming some plastics. Your numbers are just a little off IMO, but who's counting. What are the prices of all the other parts in your area the Rally has that the 300L doesn't have?

300cc is more than enough in 90% of Philippine roads. Any more than that is just a waste of money. Lots of stray dogs on the roads, can't really go too fast, too long. Honda CRF300L, my dream bike. I have an XR150L by d way. Soon I will get this bike.

I love this bike. I bought mine a few months ago to go back to playing in the sand. It has enough power to do everything I want it to do. I'm 45 and don't plan on doing heavy endoro. Just nice trails in the woods. What tires are u running? Also what psi do u keep yours at? Great video and stay safe.

I did a version of all the ergo changes you made sourced from unapologetic Chinese sources (AliExpress) They’re all made there anyway, I just paid much less. Since I’m back in CA, I brought my airbox, Ali. exhaust and ecu so I can make my mods(cbr velocity stack, installed 2nd snorkel, twin-air air cleaner, Ali. header pipe needed cat. removed, mid-pipe needs some dents banged in for frame clearance, mufflers so loud it needs mods, sent ecu to 550 for Stage 3.0 reflash) When I return to Cebu, I will also bring 301cc big bore kit & cbr cams. Hopefully we’ll get to ride together.

I'm still saving to buy but the 300L "Rally" version is high on my list now. I think we've got too many choices & honestly if you had a list of your top 5 dual sports and randomly passed them out ; every person would make it work for themself! I see that in every video in/and around places like you live. Anywhere in Asia I see folks making do w/ a myriad of bikes, most of which we western people would scoff at. That said, even if all I wind up w/ is the little Honda 150L Dual Sport, it still will suffice......ty for the video

Crf250/300 is more reliable than ktm.

Heavy and very high seat

Everything you have said about the bike -correct-i have one and can't fault it

the mtorbike is heavy thats the cons and very ugly odd headlight!

They are about $8,400 here in California brand new

I really wanted to watch your content because of the information involved. But you need to mount your camera somewhere else. I was getting motion sick the first five minutes I had to stop. You’re a total spaz put the camera somewhere else

I love my 250 Rally in Thailand. The only real shortcoming is I wish it was better for 2 up touring and there are times I wish I had longer fuel range (the 300 holds more gas than the 250). I find the suspension fine for touring but the OEM tires kinda suck.

Very helpful video. Thanks Mate!

I love that scenery. That coastal road is great.

I sold my BMW M1000R Competition, time for a 300L.

According to the Honda web site the 300L weight in at 311lbs, but the CRF450L weight 289lbs!! Have you rode one of the CRF450Ls? Again, according to the web site, you get a bigger engine and less weight.

I have ridden motorcycles for more than a year in the Phillipines and Mexico in both cities and country environments. The conditions are much better in the Phillipines than in Mexico.. The roads are in better condition and people more aware in the Phillipinres.

Fantastic review, the best one I've seen....I'm 58 and returning to biking after 20 years, I want to do light off roading and the 4 mile commute to work. I am on the verge of buying one of these but the rear shock does worry me and every video on this bike raises the same concern. I can't see the sense in spending £6.5k on a brand new bike and then another £600 on upgrading the suspension....gotta admit though it looks absolutely fantastic.

Sold my 300 rally very recently for financial reasons , kept my versys 650 , looking to buy another rally sometime. After reflecting on my 3500 kms travelled on the this bike , covering backroads , dirt roads , muddy firetrails , and motorway here in Australia, on a completley stock bike , the bike is the closest to a unicorn adventure bike that exists. When you are in the Aussie bush riding alone , having a reliable bike , and a bike you can pick up after dropping is mandatory!!!!! The 300 rally keeps new looking , it doesnt scratch easy. The only drawback for a 28 inch seam rider is seat height, its centre of gravity is high. And in certain situations , no matter how good a rider, not being able to touch the ground on uneven surfaces is critical. If I buy another one , will get it lowered , the S model is grey and orange , I prefer the redblue and white full height version. Lowering link installed is about $500 , it lowers bike by about 40mm. On the motorway , if you cruise at 90 km per hour all is good , sometimes 100 to 110 km per hour is ok , if it is not a windy day, but beware the stock knobby tyres are noisy on most road surfaces . This bike is limited on twisties by its stock tyres , and likewise on sand and gravel. Finally dont buy this bike if you enjoy. on road adrenaline rush , its not going to do it safely, the 21 inch front wheel and its geometry isnt good for spirited cornering compared to my Versys 650. Its a bike for exploring , for looking at the scenery spreading all around you …for exploring both back roads and forest, national park trails. I hit a soft enduro loop just before I sold bike , it handled it , just had to slow down compared to riding a proper off road bike. By use of the light the clutch you can dart out of corners very easily , its only the soft suspension and tyres that cant handle full blown hard riding . But remember , if you want to get the heart rate up on bitumen , this is not the bike.

My Rally (250) is 6 years old and has 145,000 trouble-free km - I'll never sell it. I've has all sorts of bikes over the last 40 odd years and the little 250 is one of the best. Like yourself, I live in SE Asia and it's a perfect machine for here. Aboard the Rally, I know I can pretty much go anywhere... That's real freedom.
