2016 250 Motocross Shootout - MotoUSA

[@MrJokkoma]

I would like to see this test again when this bikes has 50 hours on them on the used market. Not every rider buy brand new bikes.

[@SOLDOZER]

Results would be bad because all the teens and 20's would not do the maintenance on them, then overrev them till they explode.

[@fsmzevilz4253]

My kx250f had 7 hours on it when I bought it

[@tanderbrown239]

MrJokkoma m8 your so big brain I’ve never thought of thar

[@bryanc447]

Yamaha is the best japanese brand because it still makes 2 strokes

[@wheeliemaniac6600]

I'm 13 turning 14 this year and I love the yzf 250's! I have one and they have good deals they are light and powerful! I recommend you getting one!

[@miloraca]

love that RMZ!

[@njatoandrianarison6433]

miloraca I was looking for this one comment to buy one.

[@Maicowerk]

Need to bring back 2 strokes :)

[@Max-ps2ps]

Agree

[@scottwalton5613]

+Opferman Motors Dirtbiking unless you are a pro most bikers do better with a wide powerband of a four stroke motor which is more easily controlled around the track.

[@Maicowerk]

Junk

[@frassonracing]

All these people arguing about what bike is best,and I'm here like let's go ride

[@Motocrosser1222]

Lol. Same.

[@VlogEpicness]

2017?

[@justanotherdirtbiker1138]

1:49 for start of shootout

[@ethanelliott2388]

Dyno information on the crf? Really wanted to know what it revved out to but anyway

[@TiagoSilva-tx9hz]

Great video!

[@bryanc447]

It would be nice to bring back all the old legends like the rm125 cr125r kx125 and make a shootout against the yami ktm and husqy

[@marccharron4924]

excellent brief review, thanks to MotoUSA!

[@brendenketelsen4417]

i dont call myself a honda lover accept that my whole garage is full of honda's

[@hreindustries]

i hope honda makes a big come back this year.

[@ktmjack1]

+m1ke2001 itd be interesting, all the Japanese brands have 4 year cycles where they completely revise there bikes. I wonder if they ditch the duel exhausts next year. (its there new cycle year)

[@hreindustries]

ktmjack1 yeah thank god ive seen rumores but i dont know if its true

[@leeham273]

in 2022 they are still pos bikes

[@Shorty15054]

what should i get out off rmz250, crf250r or kx250f?

[@hs4165]

+Shorty the crf250r is prob the easiest to ride of them:) i owne a new crf250r and will recomend it :)

[@dangrimes5078]

Oh man I just subscribed but it looks like you haven't put out a new video in 5 years

[@zachlozano3886]

I like kawasakis raspy exahust😢

[@bobbydoolittle5362]

The 2017 Kawasaki 250 is amazing I have heard. Really light and much skinnier, therefore better handling

[@RangerUp-pi1cu]

Bobby Doolittle I'm personally a Yamaha fan. But kawi is my second choice they are a very nice ride. There alot easier to ride than bikes like ktm and yamaha.

[@archiedillon9708]

hey guys. im always looking for an 85cc shootout of new bikes. could you do a 85cc shootout

[@JBMT11]

Have ridden a mates 08 KTM300exc out on a trail ...personal didn't really get all the hype ....was 90% sure it would be my dream bike ...but price wise was out of the budget ...so ended up with a trail modded 07 RM250(FMF exhaust,FWW) ....completely changed my mind and absolutely love the RM (funny as I use to bag my mates that use to ride the RM-KX etc >> why I love the RM over the KTM300.... size side by side the bike don't look all that different in size ....but out on the trail the KTM felt like I was trying to ride a boat ...so much heavier feeling ...dead feeling steering ...power quite slow lackluster ....getting back on my RM you would swear it was a 125cc handling wise ,,,steering just incredibly nimble very fast ....power very strong from bottom to top very YZ250 like powerplant nothing like the older monocross snappy short powerbands ... Drag race the RM would put least a bike length to two till max out speed round 65-70mph where the KTM longer 5th would give it the higher top speed.. fuel use ....every ride the bigger tank KTM would run dry before the RM KTM300 weight add on 7kilos + the extra fuel (so round 10kilo at full tank heavier bike) hill climbing torque ....with a 13oz FWW the RM tractors with the best of them starting issues ....KTM ...Kick till monday Why o Why can't Suzuki fit an updated 08 RM250 motor in the latest RMZ .... increase the tank to 9-10lts lift the 4th -5th gear to give it 80mph top-end heavier crank,18 rear wheel and I'm sure they would sell like hot cakes and give the others in the off-road class a good kicking....2018 RMX250r ???

[@joshwase84]

Tm racing ?? Lush bikes 😍

[@sheldongill69]

I really think they should do 2 stroke reviews, after all they are coming back

[@codyestes432]

Here's the thing about the Kawasaki, I LOVE the loud as hell sound. I love loud as hell diesels. So the loudness of the Kawasaki is not a problem for not just me but many other people. Except I think it could maybe get banned from trail places but it's a race bike so, yeah

[@michaelovitch]

13 000 rpm /110 hp liter for a mono cylinder. Don't ask why reliability is very bad on those things with those numbers....

[@dannykyle738]

it's not bad, you just have to get your valves done if you ride it hard.

[@Paul-lw4uj]

Sorry but which bike has 110hp per litre On my calculation (the Suzuki with just ~35hp) has 140 hp 250ccm x4=1000ccm 35hp x4=140hp

[@michaelovitch]

You are right. Maybe a typo i don't know why i typed 110. It's worse with 140 hp /liter....

[@Paul-lw4uj]

+michaelovitch I understood what you wanted to state it's even worse with husky/KTM with about 170hp- 180hp But the coolest thing is that they have the longest service intervals from the manufacturer (this is coming from an Honda rider)

[@michaelovitch]

They contain maybe more oil ? With those rpm i guess valve adjustment must be really frequent.

[@cschilli68]

Why are the 250 2 strokes not in here too now thay they are legal in this class?

[@rambie2131]

what bike is the quitest because i race but i also like to take my bikes on the trails

[@alexdixon5033]

so how much did the ktm weigh?

[@JKevolution]

finally a comparison with results without having to buy the magazine living in the other side of the world!

[@v8monster186]

Hey guys ... I want to know from riders what does each brand have reputation for ?? for exp : honda vs yamaha ... sth what are the pros and cons of each one since past . or everything useful . I would be thankful if anyone do me this favor.

[@deathactual1745]

That kawi sounded like it was gonna blow up any second .. 😅

[@randomgunn.a.p4367]

Please DO A 125 shootout?

[@joshuaedgington6444]

me looking at this cuz i cant afford a brand new 250...

[@vincentsauer99]

I've rode once an 350 sxf KTM 2017 (nearly the same as the 2016 model) and the handling was so good! The Bike wants to lay in the corners, without you doin sth. Do the YZ-F 250 2016 handels the same?:o Realy want to buy a Yamaha, but i loved the handling of the ktm sooo much

[@BubbysVlogs]

Should I get a CRF or ktm???

[@Bcuube]

which would be best for a new -intermediate rider? yz? sx-f?

[@dylanrogers6832]

I'd say yzf, haven't ridden the sxf but the yzfs powerband is super smooth and the suspension great

[@skimania5325]

Does anyone know why my 2003 yz 85 is starting but then stalling after about 3 seconds? Any opinions or suggestions would be great

[@devinwillis7787]

+ski Mania spark plug, then check the carb then the reeds

[@pure2strokepower]

check the reeds.

[@danniebrown3396]

how come when I read this in dirt rider magazine it was yamaha, THEN honda, then husky, then ktm, then kawasaki, then suzuki

[@dustinbowes9484]

in Transworld Mx it was yamaha then ktm then kawasaki then honda then Suzuki then huskivarna. I guess its different for each magazine

[@danniebrown3396]

lol k

[@32to1mix6]

U forgot Tm racing

[@jmicm13]

So Booth left dirt rider?

[@motorcycleusa]

+Justin M (Jmicmoto13) Boothy joined the MotoUSA crew as the Off-Road Editor last January, just shy of a year ago.

[@jmicm13]

+Motorcycle USA awesome. Good stuff.

[@themotoguy2830]

Never see TM's, yet theyre sold in America as well

[@23pyromaniac]

So which is most reliable? My guess would be the Yammy or the Honda.

[@YZ250er]

+kobyashi Never owned a Honda, but surely its Honda.

[@matthewnelson4061]

+Zig71 nahh man, I could double check the books but the intervals are definitely further apart

[@YZFRYAN888]

as long as you take care of it and dont abuse the engine. it will last upwards of 50 hours. any of these bikes will

[@PedroLuisR91]

subtitles please!

[@jamessonger3]

+Pedro Luis Rodriguez hell no...learn english!!

[@andrewford80]

+Hellsslave666 amen

[@george8904]

Just turn it on in the options thing on the video

[@SuperZombiekiller234]

really the honda is third. im gonna get the suzuki after winter just because i loved how it felt

[@oo0Spyder0oo]

There's no 'A' between Husq and Varna.

[@303badassboxer]

Can we get a 2016 250 2 stroke shootout?

[@justincastelli5153]

It's only between ktm and yamaha

[@303badassboxer]

should be easy then

[@Lincoln-wb3jj]

+justin castelli Husqvarna makes one I think. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

[@austind191]

good stuff

[@timt.buchanan5075]

It's cause the Husqvarna's air box is smaller or its just harder for air to get through, so it forces the air through a little harder than the KTM. Causing it to just squeeze out a little more power cause its working harder to for the air through. I'm probably wrong lol but that's what I think

[@timt.buchanan5075]

Nvm it could be the same air box but I'm not sure because the KTM doesn't have the air problem the Husqvarna does.

[@thammaratsinparu3940]

vere good

[@pedrogomes8858]

fassam o prossimo video com uma legenda em portugues

[@michelagazzi7197]

Tm?

[@juliesummersell1302]

I dont like the yama because it has alot of bottom but hardly an top and you have to rev the crap out of it to go fast on sertain tracks such as glen helen

[@bangun172]

got the honda awesome bike,,,

[@chrisiodice974]

im 5-7 will I fit any of those bike's?

[@mitchellfrank2001]

I'm 5'7" as well and find I fit the bike just fine... A few suspension tweaks to maybe lower if needed and you're golden.

[@DehxterX]

KTM Kawi Yamaha my three

[@ELLETPYROS]

I think it's kinda ironic that Yamaha won and the whole track is covered with Yamaha flags and signs?

[@toddlk1867]

Yamaha blue for eveer

[@tjsmith8053]

Total disrespect to the Kawasaki. Should be 1st or 2nd easily

[@jamenbrooks4713]

Ride Red

[@hondaalldayh.a.d8877]

All damn day!

[@reedneudorf9043]

if it ain't red put it in the shed

[@hondaalldayh.a.d8877]

Holy shit I love that!

[@madsjrgensen9173]

2 STROKE IS BETTER YAMAHA YZ 250cc 2 STROKE

[@levimix7192]

KTM e Yamaha 3

[@LoCk3H]

The KTM is better than the Yam tbh.

[@TheMotocrossDude]

Its all in the rider

[@TheMotocrossDude]

Its all in the rider

[@cschilli68]

"The KTM/Husky are the best in every category. More HP, better brakes, best cornering, lightest. That's good enough for 2nd as they didn't pay us off. And the winner is??? Yamaha with the largest advertising contribution to our magazine! It may be one of the weakest engines with average components, but hell at least it wins in suspension." (Full disclosure I have a garage full of KTMs...)

[@bradleygoodrich5569]

I want one of your KTM's!

[@OzModified]

more hp in the top end cause they rev to 14000 rpm. one of the weakest engines? you have to be kidding yourself. you obviously have never put much time on a yzf (you own all ktms) so you wouldnt know. i have a 2015 yz250f and it kicks ass!! at everything.

[@TheAmericanUhate]

+cschilli68 Nice contradiction to your first line with your last line. "KTM/Husky are the best in every category" followed by Yamaha wins in suspension lol.

[@CooperOne3Five]

+cschilli68 ktms suck, im a 17yr old girl and i can bend a ktms subframe with my hands, no wonder they always snap, only good part about them is electric start, ive also ridden a 2016 yzf and it was the best to jump by far, i couldn't touch the ground but thats not the point, and ive also ridden a 2016 rmz and that was amazing all round

[@hs4165]

+cschilli68 yes the ktm and husky have the most HP on the dyno, but its not rideable power, they only picke up in the high HP numbers in the end of the powerband. witch is not were you need it to be. if the ktm/husky really were that much stronger then the rest of the bikes, they should be far ahead of the competition and no one would have ridden the japanise bikes anymore. thats what the guy that maped and dynoed my crf250r said:)
