So, to sum it up, after the first try with 86 gas - the meter was almost dead on accurate (showing 74 mpg and the pump/distance calculation coming at 73.7). And the fuel consumption translates in about 3,2 l/100km if you are from Europe and 31.4 km/l if you are from India. Pretty economical, I would say. Very good video, I like that kind of stuff :D

[@WOODZMAN]

That is correct, I am working on the Premium non ethanol test now

[@Aryanthakur-yt9bc]

Thanks bro

[@bradanton1867]

I have used this bike on and off road but it is primarily my commute bike. Going just through town and back roads much of our speed limits are 40-45. So between 40 and 50 average my instant mpg shows 82-85 mpg. I'm 150 lbs at 5'10". When I sometimes take interstate and running 75-80 with return trip back through town lower speeds I have been as low as 76.1 mpg. If you want a bike for fuel economy you will be quite pleased buying this!

[@WOODZMAN]

So true

[@SuperLaplander]

Thank you dear sir for this video!

[@BigIronBreaks]

Prettt Impressive and surprisingly accurate, I’ve enjoyed watching your CRF300L series keep it up

[@WOODZMAN]

Thanks for watchin

[@bobbarrett7748]

Good stuff! I’m looking forward to the next video. I run non ethanol premium in my tw200 and it not so much for the mileage but for the reduction in engine noise. It really quieted the little bugger up. I love your videos and keep up the great work!

[@WOODZMAN]

Should be next weekend maybe, then I am going to make a video to where I ride the bike until it runs completely out of gas to see exactly how far it will go on a tank

[@petercarletti6714]

Thumbs up 👍 to the mileage! Crf’s rock!! Great review as always👌

[@KingUnic]

I did the same with my yamaha r3. Chec my videos, its real.

[@robertking6892]

Pretty cool. Can’t go wrong with that kinda mileage.

[@GeezerWheels]

Great video. 70+ is totally believable. On our county roads (LaPlata County, Colorado) I get over 70 and sometimes 75 mpg on my Kawasaki Versys X300 - IF I ride like a old man, which I am. Thanks for posting your experience. I have friends buying these!

[@1inox1]

For the guys with metric brains, it´s 3,18 liter per 100 km.

[@grandriver3152]

Thank you.

[@KingUnic]

I did the same with my yamaha r3

[@PrimoStracciatella]

Interestingly my CBR500R twin which is much heavier and has 47 horses used on average 3,6L as did my NC750S DCT which has twice the hp and weighs about 215 kg.

[@andrewbozhozr]

That's a wonderful acsent :) Greetings from Serbia :)

[@WOODZMAN]

Thanks for watchin

[@numbzinger350]

That's why small displacement bikes are so cool. My WRR got 70 mpg reliably.

[@mohitgaur9983]

Really enjoy your channel and thanks to you, I will be picking up my new 300 Rally next week. As there are no test rides offered by Honda anymore (at least in Southern Ontario), it is a hard decision to make. There were no bikes available at dealerships as well to even sit down and get a feel for. Your videos and passion for the CRF bikes really helped me to take the plunge. Thanks again! Could you please let me know if your 250L 'seat concept' seat would fit the new 300L? If not then any plans to find a better seat?

[@WOODZMAN]

Thanks for watchin, I’m glad I can help encourage you. They are great bikes, both the 250L and 300L. Unfortunately the Seat Concepts seat off of the 250L will not fit the 300L, I sure wish it would. I do have plan to get one for the 300L when they become available.

[@mikeschlup5279]

Very good....

[@lee-johnson]

I miss the days when you could get gas and pay after. Haven’t been able to do that North Carolina in a long time. It’s nice to see some parts of the country still do it!

[@WOODZMAN]

Yea to many idiots driving off with out paying

[@goldni4429]

I have a 300 crf l rally that I bought last fall,I have just over 3000 miles on it and get 74.5 mpg consistently,I don't drive it to hard,but not like an old man either,best bike I've ever had,if you can get your hands on one you won't be disappointed!

[@WOODZMAN]

It truly is a fun bike, I am super happy with mine and it is the best bike I have owned

[@animalcrackrzz]

5 long months of waiting,still no bike.. cheers on the mileage!

[@WOODZMAN]

Darn

[@stewartdunkley4108]

New Sub to your channel and want to say how I am enjoying your videos! I bought a used 300L last fall and am waiting for winter to end up here in Ontario Canada. Your content is giving me great ideas of what to expect with this bike and the things I can do to personalize it. I would like to know if changing from stock tire size to the 120/90-18 has made any difference to your gas mileage and if you kept the stock rear sprocket or swapped it for another tooth size?

[@WOODZMAN]

Hi Stewart and thanks for watchin! I could t tell any difference at all on the fuel mileage when changing the tire size. Changing the sprocket might make a little difference but not much. I had changed the sprocket size on my 250L but I went back to stock and I have stayed with stock on the 300L. It just seems to be the perfect gearing for me

[@stewartdunkley4108]

@@WOODZMAN Thanks for getting back to me! Just cruising through your library of videos and watching the snow melt. Bring on Spring!!!

[@WOODZMAN]

Yeah I agree, I'm ready for warm weather

[@jackmewhalle6937]

My 2021 300L CRF Honda I average around 54 miles to the gallon. But I am also riding mostly off-road through sand roads. So I came on here to see what everybody else was getting on the highway because I have no idea because I don't ride very much highway. 70 plus miles to the gallon is pretty impressive. I'm about to put mine up for sale only have 100 miles on it I like the bike but it's just not what I want. I want something smaller and more nimble.

[@WOODZMAN]

Yea and sand roads you would use more fuel

[@grant31781]

That's not fair! My 450L got 45 and 46mpg on my last two trips😁 It does have a tuner and fmf pipe.

[@WOODZMAN]

Lol that still it’s yo bad

[@CharlesHuse]

Nice. I’m looking at the new CRF300L Rally with the 3.4 gallon tank.

[@WOODZMAN]

The larger tank would be nice

[@americandude3825]

That’s about 220 miles a tank. I think any bike that’s 200+ miles a tank is a winner.

[@WOODZMAN]

@americandude3825 I agree

[@TwoAMBlacktop]

I can't say you would have any difference between non ethanol and ethanol, I try to run non ethanol just to avoid the ethanol, especially in my little carb bike.

[@bulentberksan9888]

73,6 mpg = 3,19 lt/100 km . I always make 3-3.7 with my 250L

[@Mjr1348]

According to the instrument cluster I’m at 63.7 with 470 miles. Prem fuel 10% ethanol. I think I’ve been way to hard on this bike during break in. Maybe that’s why.

[@WOODZMAN]

Yea but you can buy 2 bikes and they won’t be the same

[@angryviking4496]

Got about 300 miles on my 300L and display says I'm averaging around 77.6 mpg. Mostly mellow highway miles for now.

[@WOODZMAN]

It’s pretty accurate

[@koshtie]

Hi Frank looking at the octane ratings you guy's have in the states 87/89 & 91, here in the UK we get 95/97 & 99 octane ? also put a deposit down on a CRF300L due in oct/nov, liking the axp bash plate & chain guard, there website does not list UK in country drop down box & e-mailed them twice still no reply, ATB Wayne UK...........

[@WOODZMAN]

You can get higher octane in some locations just not near me.

[@TwoAMBlacktop]

Different octane rating system, they are the same.

[@AndreasEUR]

Here in Norway, if paying with card we insert card first, then at the end it charges us the amount filled. Is that not how it works there? Why not just pay with card?

[@WOODZMAN]

Here you insert the card then remove it and at the end, it charges your card. Sometimes I pay with card and sometimes with cash

[@351cat]

I want to do this on my 300l, but I can't seems to figure out how to clear the counters. I feel dumb.

[@leeinwis]

once cycled to where you want hold the right side button down until it clears.

[@heathleiteritz470]

My fat butt is getting 69 mpg on my 300l. Running low grade ethenol. I'll take it.

[@leeinwis]

Mine gets 69 mpg.

[@stevey500]

Getting ~140mpg on the 2022 grom. Seems to be about right, it’s half the bike, lol

[@WOODZMAN]

Dang

[@ronnieberg2277]

I get anywhere from 85 mpg to 78 mpg regular unleaded gas mixed driving

[@angryviking4496]

77 mpg here and weigh around 200 lbs. You?

[@ronnieberg2277]

@@angryviking4496 same I'm 200 lbs

[@adamho8059]

With this bike?

[@ronnieberg2277]

Yes with my crf 300 l I set a record today granted I was driving like an old guy witch I'am lol 94.2 mpg my last fill I got 82.3 mpg mixed driving

[@masonmaceachern1858]

Mine gets 2.8 litres per hundred

[@PrimoStracciatella]

I'm breaking mine in, I accelerate carefully, don't go over 6000 revs or 90 km/h, and used 2.9L on my first tankfilling.

[@rosmond1841]

Consider the error built into the speedo - mine is out almost 10km/h at 100.

[@WOODZMAN]

My Speedo is spot on, I tested it

[@rosmond1841]

Nice. Yours is the only one I have heard of that is even close to accurate.

[@WOODZMAN]

My 250L is the same

[@Tacoexplorer]

You should put 91 to get the maximum benefit.

[@TwoAMBlacktop]

The CRF250/300's are tuned for 87. 91 just gives you more resistance to detonation. You don't gain anything from running premium vs regular when you are tuned for regular.

[@Tacoexplorer]

@@TwoAMBlacktop do you know when a vortex ecu going to be available for it?

[@TwoAMBlacktop]

@@Tacoexplorer I don't know. Probably won't get one. The only ones they offer available for Honda are for the 250R, 450L/RL/R and the TRX450/700. Totally different engine family. Most of the CRF250L/300L engine products are more closely related to the CB/CBR line since that's where the engine comes from.

[@Tacoexplorer]

@@TwoAMBlacktop hope this is not true. The Thailand 300L comes stock with 31 hp vs 27 hp for the USA model. There are definitely more power to gain from this engine.

[@TwoAMBlacktop]

@@Tacoexplorer I think they gathered those numbers from the CBR300R making 30.4 horsepower. The CRF’s will always make a slightly lower number due to tuning for off-road capabilities. The story is in the power curves and not so much in the peak output.

[@johnscott9829]

Your 300L are frustrating videos to watch..... In my area these bikes are not available, and it honestly may be 2023 before I could actually get one.

[@27Zangle]

Not many (if any) around here either and 2020 250s are priced almost $1200 over MSRP. I can only imagine how much they would charge for a 300L. I have a friend who drives south a couple of times a year and brings back a load of used and sometimes new dirt bikes that he sells. I may have him pick a 300L up for me next year and save I bet over $1500.

[@WOODZMAN]

Yea it’s crazy the difference in price in other areas.

[@johnscott9829]

@@27Zangle South??? Mexico?

[@27Zangle]

@@johnscott9829 - Nah, I am in Alaska. The closest Honda dealer that actually sells bikes is 2 hours away. There is a local shop here in town but they only deal with marine engines and refuse to order bikes.
