In this video I ride and review the 2023 Honda CRF300L Rally. This is one of my favorite dual sport motorcycles for the money. It does both on and off road really well and doesn't break the bank with a starting MSRP of $6,200 USD.

37mpg? He must ride the dog poop out of it! Most of us are getting 65-75mpg.

lol, it can be inaccurate due to idling and other situations , when riding at a steady speed for a minimum of a few minutes then it's accurate .

@@leeinwis lol, when you lose, literally half your fuel efficiency, there is obviously something else more at play, other than the “normal” inaccuracies in operating conditions.

@@airadaimagery692 I was talking about it saying (on the screen) it's avg miles per gallon, if a person kept track and figured it out themselves it would be far different. I own the bike and get 70 mpg , tested many fills .

I’m getting 77 mpg in Ohio. Goes down quickly on the interstate with rpm’s hitting 6000+. I have not yet been off-road. Off-road riding may also be terrible on gas mileage.

@gregr3576 2 ай бұрын

he’s at 50 mph in 4th gear. That’s keeping the rpm’s high and mpg down. Recommend shift points in the manual - supposed to be in 6th gear around 38 mph.

They're fun little machines. Just over 10,000 kilometers on mine now in all sorts of terrain here in Australia 😎👍

We ended up taking it on my single track course and it was surprisingly good! haha

I have the same year bike. Did your buddy cut the seat strap? Also, I see an aftermarket foot shifter, bars and kick stand pad. I have the same exhaust except I went with the full stainless version and an ECU from 550 Performance with the 91 Octane tune. My bike gets an average of 75-83 mpg depending on if I run my spark arrestor insert or not. This is a high quality video, if you keep it up you will gain my subscription! Thanks again.

I've been looking for a 1st bike since the early 90's..... I'm saving money but in this time I've got a list of 7-8 dual sport bikes & I just realized this one recently. Also in my research I've gone thru & found out all the MOD's for every bike on my list & what type of money it'll cost along w/ how feasible it'll be getting around to those upgrades afterwards. This Rally version is on my short list but I've got a question for anyone who might know. Plastics >> > this bike has so much plastic that I'm kinda looking to see if it might be wise to take the plastics off, wrap -n- store them opting to purchase a secondary set that can be colored & done any way you like but some guys do this exact thing on their bigger bikes? I haven't looked up replacement or stock stuff but I'm guessing it would be high priced so would it be worthwhile to do this? Any thoughts on it? peace & I subb'd/HiT bell

One gripe is the suspension is that stock?

It is. It could definitely be better. That bike is such a good value I think you leave yourself some room to do it and still not be too deep in the bike. I can't remember what the bike is sprung for but if I'm trying to do it on a budget I just re spring the front and rear of my bikes and do the work myself so I'm usually in it less than $300-400 depending on the bike.

Love the bike, hate the color scheme.

I've got a 17 built 250 Rally. Love almost everything about it except in windy conditions on freeway. I have a 750 also, but find the Rally so much more fun and easier for commuting, light off road. Great small package with the tower...I had to adjust and slow down to meet the bikes capabilities.

Great to see more items on the sister channel. Keep em Coming. I did chuckle when you were listing the spec’s of the bike as all were imperial measurements on the “metric” channel :)

@db2474 4 ай бұрын

Just buy the 300l if all you are doing is riding off-road with it. The Rallye is way more capable than what you are using is for.

@gregr3576 2 ай бұрын

cool video. I haven’t yet been off-road with my Rally so good to see you handling the trails.

@lionelemata7433 7 ай бұрын

I have a 500EXC and an 890AdvR for the US; but, I’m building up my ‘23 300 Rally in the Philippines. Unlike the KTM, upgrades for the Honda are limited. I only changed the bars, pegs, exhaust, tail-tidy, levers, rack and shifter/brake. Sus mods are expensive and Rekluse clutch isn’t available.

Have one coming any day to complement my Moto Guzzi V85TT. Honda will be a better off road bike but road capable and the MG the better road bike for longer trips. Keeping my '98 Ural sidecar rig for snow and down the road when I can't handle two wheels anymore.
