Got a lot to work on with it 😅 but fun nonetheless!

I’m actually from Bell Co KY but live in Claiborne now

@@trailsandtribulations7137 I subscribed to u

I couldn’t find mine 😤 Still haven’t found them either 😅

Fun times!

If I didn’t already have one, I’d be looking for one!

Had a buddy almost get ripped in half through his torso like that 15 years ago

And I know it’s a big gun but like big gun evo or what

@@JacobBaumgardner-ig7pm Evo, yeah! Good ear!

@@trailsandtribulations7137 where did you get it?

@@JacobBaumgardner-ig7pm It was on the quad when I bought the quad

I’ve had no issues, so far. I bought it when it was 13 years old and it still had all stock engine components, top end, bottom end, etc. I rebuilt the top end once and have kept the oil/coolant fresh and have had no issues. 15 year old bottom end still running strong. And the suspension makes for a smooth ride with all the power a person needs. I love it

Thank you for watching, man!

Southeastern Kentucky

There not to hard

It wasn’t nearly as difficult as I thought it would be. It’s similar to the 400ex labor. I was thoroughly impressed with how easy it actually was.

The 2025 klx230R does , looks like new feature for this year… I’m stuck on these two bikes which one is better lol can’t find out if the Honda does.

Sorry for the late response! the IRS definitely makes for a more comfortable ride and less beatings. I have no complaints about it. Nothing but positive reviews. My favorite machine i’ve ever owned.

This is actually southeastern KY

@@trailsandtribulations7137 holy shit, looks just like my backyard in yukon canada

i think the klx would be better it has squishy cushion for heavy people but since ur light it would probably be phenomenal btw what is ur height if your relatively tall lets say 57 plus it should fit you k if ur 5ft9 or taller you should be able to pretty much flat foot it

Little by little, I plan to add to the CRF. I mostly focus on my other stuff and my brother doesn’t ride as much (CRF is his) so this is on the back burner but definitely have plans for it. Yours sounds awesome. Yoshi pipe is awesome. I’ve heard quality videos on it.

Looking back, definitely the CRF250F. More durable, more balanced, little less top end speed but I’d rather be a few MPH slower with all the benefits the Honda provides.

Both wheelie easily!

I remember encouraging you to trade your Raptor for the TRX450R. How’s that going? I’ve been trying to get my hands on one too lately

@@trailsandtribulations7137 Yeah so I traded it the raptor for the trx450er and I honestly didn't know anything about this set up,you know the shimming part and decompression system, but I figured it out, I disassembled the valves, springs, camshaft without taking measurements, what a mistake that was,but I got it fixed,I went with Stock Ferrea Valves and Springs kit, Stage 2 Hotcams, 100mm Cp carillo piston & clutch I used CR500r springs with Tusk High performance fibers and plates,and I just bought a few OEM Keihin jets to get the carburetor where it needs to be at,I bought a jet kit off of 6Sigma, which they supposedly build them to the specs you send,but it didn't work,can't wait to ride it,I'm waiting for parts to come in.

I’ve came across a couple bear and a couple elk, plenty of deer and smaller animals, and lots of reptiles and amphibians and the usual in wet, muddy areas. We kept swapping positions in this ride but mostly the 2019 Yamaha YFZ450R (stock) was directly in front of me. I think at the very beginning it was the TRX400X with the FMF slip on. If you’re hearing an exhaust other than mine, it’s probably the other TRX700XX running the full FMF system and it’s loud. 💥

This is me, man! Glad to see ya sub. Where ya from? Cmon up and we can check out the local off road parks together and I could give a weekends worth of riding on public trails near where my family lives. Be great fun for you and your wife if she enjoys riding too. Thanks for the compliment on the exhaust! Im very satisfied

I’d recommend the CRF250F at this point. It’ll beat the KLX out at the hole shot but when 5th and 6th hear come, the KLX will catch up and pull away. KLX230R - 72MPH CRF250F - 67MPH

@@trailsandtribulations7137 wow thanks a lot this is exactly what I was looking for

@@unidentifiable6152 Good luck, bro! I hope you get what you want!

Installing the exhaust and plugging the tuner in was easy. The actual tuning has been a task despite not being too complicated. I recommend asking Barkers Performance or EHS Racing to have it pre tuned for your build prior to shipping to you.

You won’t regret it! Sounds amazing and you can feel the extra oomph immediately

Always, bro!

Thank you! We always have so much fun. We’re glad you enjoyed! 😃

Harlan, KY/Rose Hill, Virginia. More specifically, I enter off the 987 highway in Smith, KY (place in Harlan County) across the small bridge.

Black Mountain Off-Road Adventure Area has a lot of seasonal events and is always like this or more packed. Always a fun time! Last July it was insane and can be found in my first BMORAA playlist!

Thank you! I can avoid that kind of editing. I appreciate the feedback.

@@trailsandtribulations7137 Not trying to be a goob but I love when I get a notification that you all drop a vid.

@@flyingbriando5521 We love to hear that!

They are perfectly fine on 85 or 87, not super high compression engines like the race bikes are.

87 or better. I think 89 is what is recommended

KLX230R has more top speed. CRF250F has more bottom end speed. They mid speed is roughly equal.
