Truthfully I Need Help building Confidence to For Cornering and making turns. I'm still not used to it Throttle and I need to learn Throttle Control. I know it's going to take time.

[@notsoupmoto]

@@patrick2360 that does take time to develop for sure but each time you ride you'll get more used to it!

[@patrick2360]

​@notsoupmoto I Sincerely Hope So. I need to get used to the Throttle being so responsive. I have to learn how to give it Throttle but Not too much. But I'll practice for a little while Tomorrow.

[@notsoupmoto]

@@patrick2360 good luck!

[@acwilsn]

The ability to both narrate and ride effectively is a real testament to your skill! Thanks for the great video! I also bought this bike.

[@notsoupmoto]

hey thanks!! glad you enjoyed the video. have fun on the new bike!

[@mikethemaniac1]

I have a 2023 250F. I'm still on the stock tires because the local spot has been really nice on them since we got a lot of rain. I'll say this about it, it's very easy to ride in most situations, the torque is very forgiving and it does a good job of being a play bike. What I'd like to see however is an improvement to the suspension springs and a switch to upside down forks. If the KLX300R can do it for like $7,000, I'd be willing to buy this bike all over again even though I now have a KTM 300 because frankly better suspension was all it really needed IMO.

[@notsoupmoto]

very true! upgraded suspension would make a world of difference. Would really increase the price though which is where I think this bike currently shines.

[@ScoobyDo0.]

Strange that it doesn’t have inverted forks yet my cheap Chinese 150 has them

[@notsoupmoto]

@@ScoobyDo0. i agree. my only guess is that they wanted to keep it within a certain price range and went with the EFI and other upgrades over suspension.

[@broncobros2022]

It’s certainly easier to upgrade the suspension after purchase than to buy something with a better suspension and then want to add fuel injection and Honda reliability

[@notsoupmoto]

@@broncobros2022 100%. and i've heard of a lot of people upgrading the suspension on these things for a reasonable price and having great results

[@patrick2360]

Thank You Very Much For Sharing. I can't wait to Actually See what My CRF250F can Actually do. As I've said before I'm just beginning to learn.

[@notsoupmoto]

Best of luck!

[@patrick2360]

Thank You Very Much. ​@@notsoupmoto

[@hexhead5732]

We had our Honda 250 F for 6 years and never had a problem these bike are bullet Proof. And very low maintenance

[@notsoupmoto]

good to hear!! thx for the comment!

[@finishelectric]

Can you talk about the updates vs previous years and regular maintenance?

[@notsoupmoto]

yes! thx for the idea!!

[@yoovex9966]

Been battling between this crf250f or a klx300r for my first bike. Leaning toward the comfortability of the Crf however want the 300r being the “superior trail bike”

[@yoovex9966]

Thank you for the vid and the input

[@yoovex9966]

6’0” 195lbs

[@notsoupmoto]

@@yoovex9966 glad you enjoyed the video. i'm 6ft 150lbs for reference and it fits me fine

[@user-bi1yf5wg5o]

I've been riding dirt bikes for over 50. Years the kawasaki yes is the way to go

[@MrTactiCALi]

Plan on doing any upgrades? If so, what and why? Thanks man

[@notsoupmoto]

Next thing will probably be a kick stand adapter. Stock one hangs pretty low and it scares me if I'm doing jumps and stuff lol. Other than that nothing major just gonna ride the crap out of it.

[@Turtlefarm]

I’ve got the RX

[@notsoupmoto]

how do you like it?

[@CRjace]

Would a 6’2-6’3 person fit on this?

[@notsoupmoto]

my cousin is pretty tall. 6'4" and he's ridden it and loves it. it's definitely on the shorter side for him so i'd get a set of taller bars and maybe taller suspension if you can swing it. not perfect, but definitely doable.

[@CRjace]

@@notsoupmoto what bike would you recommend for me to get that would fit me perfectly?

[@notsoupmoto]

@@CRjace height wise, a full size cross country or motocross bike would fit you much better but it all depends on your skill level and what type of riding you plan on doing. How experienced are you? do you plan on riding trails in the woods or on mx tracks or on/off road?

[@CRjace]

@@notsoupmoto I’ve never ridden a dirtbike before and I just plan on riding it on dirt roads and like country side basically.

[@notsoupmoto]

@@CRjace in that case I think the 250f with taller bars would work for you or if you want something street legal and a bit taller you could look at the crf300L

[@jherbo17]

First

[@notsoupmoto]

haha nailed it

[@SeanCunningham-qj6fh]

Are you thinking about doing any upgrades or add on to the bike

[@notsoupmoto]

@@SeanCunningham-qj6fh maybe in the future. might do some suspension stuff, a headlight, street legal kit?
