I've run 3 of these rears and never got more then 3k miles, the last one only lasted 1800 miles. I like them alot but wish they would last longer on the rear.
@Scoottoots Күн бұрын
That's odd. Maybe your bike is heavier than mine. I always get long life out of tires. Or maybe something to do with the terrain here. There's always curves and corners so perhaps the wear for me is more evenly distributed across the profile of the tire.

I bought a green pair, and after couple of short rides the started to turn yellowish, on certain areas, and I did not even wash them yet. Another major problem with these is the zipper. Little tag to operate it, is way too short (read cheap), so my finger nails always brushed against the zipper when opening or closing. The problem is, that zipper itself is very sharp (read even cheaper), so it catches the finger nails like sharp file cutting the nails in the process. This tells me that nobody from company owners ever tried to zip or unzipp this garbage zipper. My god, $140 for jeans with 1 cent zipper ......BUYERS AWARE !

Great review. I bought 2 pair for $80 USD/pair. I am 6’1” and 170lbs and got the Medium size. The knee pads fit in the right place just fine with the wide part of the pad covering the knee cap. The hip pads were a bit of a mystery, do they fit horizontally or vertically??? If horizontally, they sit right below the hip bone. If vertically, the hip pads fit to cover the hip bone and the slit opening facing forward allows for pad movement when sitting. These “jeans” are very comfortable, the thigh pockets do allow for some access while sitting which is a bonus. Thanks to the 3% spandex, the pant legs do stretch to fit over my riding boots (RST Ambush CE waterproof). If there are any problems during a ride, I will post back any issues. First ride with the pants……. Very comfortable, nice stretchy feel. The leg pockets will NOT fit an iPhone with an otter box case vertically with the flap closed and snapped. The iPhone will fit horizontally (At an angle) and the flap will close and snap tight. I didn’t notice the knee pad top flap open at all during the ride (60-65 mph), I bought one pair in Olive drab and one pair in Black. I wore the black pair and they seemed to fit a bit more snug than the Olive Drab pair for some reason. No issues on the ride, maybe I got lucky.

Here's a complaint coming from Vancouver B.C .I bought a new 2022 crf 300l from the carter motorsports here in Vancouver. Under 1000kms right now about 900.A few weeks ago it overheated and the light came on high temp so I shut it down and coasted down a mountain for 10mins .Turned it back on it was ok and the fan came on.Today I went for a ride about 30kms and the light came on .I just did a coolant flush b4 hand . Being concerned as I do alot of solo riding I tried calling the Honda dealership in my area of Vancouver and they said we don't have the staff to diagnose your bike .I said we'll I don't need it right away and they said its not happining even know I bought the bike from that dealership and then they rudley hung up on me .I am still in shock over this customer service .Anybody out there think it's maby the fan or a resistor possibly .It looks like it's on me to figure this out .I really like the bike but damn unbelievable crappy service experience.
@Scoottoots Ай бұрын
Wow, that's terrible service. Was it a brand new 2022 under waranty? Any Honda authorized dealer can service it if so, and if it turns out to be a defect covered. I presume you've checked if there's coolant in the recovery tank. The fan comes on you say, but I guess you don't know if it does so at the correct trigger temp. You said you changed the coolant. Was that after the first overheating episode? Was the original coolant very low when you drained it? Are you certain you bled the system of air after you put the new coolant in? I feel the 300L runs hotter than the 250L engine, but it's cooling system should should keep the temps in a normal range. In the event this doesn't get solved and it becomes an intermittant thing, you might think of swapping your thermostat to a lower temp triggered inut. I've never had an overheating light come on and I've got decent km's on it. I'd say to look carefully at the common sense stuff. If it's still a mystery, find another service place. Let us know how it goes!

He's like no we don't. Unreal lol.I said I will take my business elsewhere.So after the first over heat I made it back to the truck after cooling it down.Then I changed the rad fluid because it was over 2 years old. I did get the air out the and the overfill tank is full.The 2nd time though I couldn't see the fan coming on and the fuse is ok I checked it today under the seat.I just removed the whole exhaust baffle and spark arrestor and put a stainless screen in as a spark arrestor. I think it's to restricted and causes some overheating.I just hope the rad fan isn't blow because it's about $400 to get one.I did order a temp gauge rad cap so it will help me diagnose it further .It's just a real pain in the butt to load up the bike and take it to a different dealer since this one is a 5min ride away .I will contact the manager if it needs some major repairs .

Any concern, or did you talk with Race Tech about only one spring? Seems like there should be springs in both forks.
@Scoottoots Ай бұрын
There is a spring in both forks. The Race Tech spring kit is the only spring kit that I know of that adds a spring to the left fork leg, You then have a spring in each leg, as the stock configuration is a spring only in the right leg. Other spring kits for this bike only replace the spring in the right leg ending up with just one spring, albeit a heavier one. My issue with the Race Tech solution is it does not allow almost full use of the travel no matter how hard it is ridden. I wrote to them with my concerns but they ignored it.

Hello Alexander. It's been a bit too long since I've had that bike and an EJK for me to remember properly. That said, The EJK website (Dobeck) used to have the recommended settings listed on the sales page for the EJK model for your bike. It listed settings for a stock bike and also for stage one mods. If that's still listed I would use the stock settings and check how the bike runs. The stock settings on the EJK will not be too lean with your air box and filter mods. You can then tweak the settings a half point at a time to test. You will likely be adjusting the yellow (aceleration) setting, as that's where you can use a bit more enrichment

You helped me along in a lot of ways when I first bought my Rally. Everything you suggested worked out perfectly at the time. So I appreciate the advice and I’m grateful that you were here to lend it. You should definitely keep on keeping on! You know, I talked to 550 Performance and mentioned to them what you told me about pulling up to the gas pump and putting the remaining 87 octane from the pump hose into a 91 octane tuned machine, and this is what they said... “There is enough margin to account for a slight deviation in octane. A typical hose full of 87 with the remainder being 91 will result in ~90.6 octane. More than sufficient with the tune.” I just thought I would give you their perspective... I have recently decided to change out my exhaust to aftermarket, and was contemplating going 87 or 91 stage 1. I chose the 87 for the simple fact that if I take on the TAT, I never know what will be available on the trail. Also I chose to go with the K&N air filter, since you to.d me they were available. I personally believe K&N has the best aftermarket offering for the 300l. Even better than filters that cost twice as much.

Hey thanks for the thoughts. I'm glad I've helped in some way. Thanks for sharing what 550 performance had to say.

@Scoottoots Ай бұрын
Ah yes, the downsides of the air cooled Harleys. Luckily our city is rather small (160,000), so getting out of town is quick. The 300L gets quite hot on the right leg. That's one of the reasons I changed to the aftermarket ECU. Richer mixture runs cooler, plus the other changes to the intake and stock exhaust have lowered the heat on my right knee that otherwise was painful at times. The stroking and other changes Honda made to that crf250l engine are great but it really upped the heat transfered to the right knee area. The 250l never did that. The 300 is otherwise a much improved bike. I hear ya on changing riding styles as we age. I think the Harley Dyna idea is something that has stuck in my mind for some time now.

@@erichalitsky1285 Now that's an interestiing collection of rides. A friend of mine has a CT90 that he is going to refresh. I should have kept my 1984 GR 650 that I was doing a build on, but life intervened 🙂

I have a GSXs-750 and a DRZ-400. They both have their place. The way the 750 turns into a monster at 6,000 rpm’s is special, but the 400 is a blast for exploring. First world problems lol.

Yes indeed, first world problems. I just returned from a ride on the 650F. Each bike has its character for sure.
