I rented this bike yesterday in Thailand. I owned a 250L for about 6 months and put about 5000 km on it. I rode 450 km on the 300L rental bike. Bike was fitted with stock suspension, stock intake and exhaust but factory wheels were swapped for 17/17 motard wheels. The 250L that I owned had 12,000 km when I sold it. The 300L had 1,100 km when I rented it. Engine: the 300L definitely has more power and it seems to have more torque in the lower ranges, 3000 rpm up to 6500 is noticeably better. The extra power above 6500 isn't so noticeable. This would make it a better bike for urban use and off road than the 250 version. Clutch has a very light feel and you could easily use this all day every day. Gearbox: 6 speed and easy to shift. I was surprised at the low first gear. It felt the same as my 250L (modified F/13 R/40); maybe the stock gearing was changed on this rental bike. I managed 152 kph on the straight (perhaps a slight downhill). No complaints at all. Seat height: On the Thai version it is quite low (don't have numbers) but for export versions it might be unchanged? It seemed even lower than my 250L (also a lowered Thai model). The Thai version is too low for my frame 6' (182 cm) and about a 33" (84 cm) inseam. I sat on the seat with my feet flat on the ground and had a distinct bend in the knees. Suspension: Still too soft for my weight. The front dives heavily under braking but perhaps not quite as bad as the stock 250L. The rear is also under damped and wallows quite badly in turns where the surface is less than perfect. The 300L, like it's smaller sibling will require suspension modifications both front and rear. If you are on a budget maybe just start with the front for the biggest bang for your buck. If you are heavier than me (70 kg or 155 lbs) you are definitely going require a full suspension upgrade front and rear so budget for that. Brakes: They were better than the 250L but the front brake is still too weak for road use in my opinion and dives far too much under braking. The rear brake seemed quite adequate and had a good feel. Handling: Didn't seem so very different from the 250L. TFT (instruments). The 300L has some extra information that the 250L is lacking. The new bike now has information like a gear indicator that is quite nice for on road use. There is a fuel economy calculator that I didn't look at too much with some facility to change the units. There is a flashing white light on the dash which I believe illuminates when in the non-economy zone. It was flashing most of the time for me (it was a rental bike after all). Of course it has a speedometer which is easy to read in any light and the tachometer which I don't think anybody uses once they get the feel for the bike's power band. Seat: It seemed tilted more forward and I expect this was due to the 17 inch front wheel. But it is comfortable enough for all day use IMHO. Overall: In my opinion the 300L is slightly better in a lot of areas, most noticeably in the engine. Having ridden both the 250 and 300 I can say that if you already own a 250, you might be disappointed if you trade up because you aren't exactly going to be launched in every gear. It is noticeable as I say but it's not such a great leap that I would be trading in my 250 tomorrow and that is especially true if you already have done some mods to you current bike. Now if you don't own a 250 already, then I can recommend the bike, and especially if you can budget for the required suspension changes. Happy riding.

Many many cars and bikes are made here. Thailand is the 5th biggest car manufacturing and exporting country in the world.

If you buy any form of powered transportation here, there is a 98% chance it was built here. The government has great incentives to draw companies here, the labor is dirt cheap and the Thais are good and reliable workers.

Nice one, thanks for the video. Great to see what's coming to the UK. The CRF300L's just arrived last week, I have a Rally coming not far behind them. We're in lockdown so it doesn't make that much difference but am itching to go out. It is entertaining reading the comments, particularly from those who knock it but haven't ridden it. Must be hard to tell from a keyboard! I was planning to try it stock, and then upgrade the suspension and exhaust as my use is very much as a dual sport, riding on road to get to the lanes and then home again. The lanes are shared with other non-powered users so the extra power would be wasted and the 300L service intervals are perfect! It does appear that they have addressed several of the shortcomings of the 250L, (gearing, weight, clutch, power etc.) so I'm sure it'll be a winner. All those complaining it's not a CRF450L, or a KTM Enduro bike, are right. It isn't, but I don't think it's supposed to be. Anyway, keep riding and enjoy it, not jealous at all that you can get out on the trails :)

Paddy, Ron Smith and all...good info regarding the new release. FYI...the Honda CRF250/300L bikes are ALL Thai made. For the whole globe. The only differences are simply in area specific ECU changes to meet environmental poo. I love my 2015. It outperforms, (modified) the new 300 easily. (Setup for street/adventure/sea to OMG altitudes) Paddy put up the Honda claim of 31 hp. That is engine dyno and paper engineering data. My 250L puts up just over 28 RWHP., but had only 18.1 on the dyno in OEM fashion. Mind you, it is a great adventure bike stock. It is now and never was a dirt bike.

great video. im on the east coast of the u.s and the waiting list is months out. but having had a 2016 250l, i look forward to this. the 250 was great for me as i weigh 140lbs...but having also owned a 2001 xr650l, i do want something that is at least a little more in the middle. the higher cc, as well as the other few smaller upgrades, as well as the aftermarkets i would add, seem to be very much what i wanted out of the 250, according to your review here. the downside i suppose is still the weight which can only be reasonably brought down a small amount. but again, my weight helps that out to a degree...my 250 had shorter gearing, and offroad tires. handled well. but still had me wishing 5th and 6th gear would pull more...for sure. shorter gearing on the 300 would likely bring about the change i wanted. hope to have one within a couple months!!!

How could I find out how to set up the forks. Spring weight and valving. I weigh 270lbs. I know, to much, but I'm getting one anyway. Have to get a lighter bike because it'll spend a lot of time on the front of my pickup. Klr650, vstrom650 all are to heavy possibly a dr650 or maybe even a xr650l. Just going to putt around in the woods and maybe do some cow trailing.

@Alan Behnke, If your just putting around I would consider the race tech front fork kit and go to their website to calculate a new spring for your rear shock. Fork kit is about $90 in the US and the rear spring kit is about $165. Made my 250l much better. I'm 220lbs and have a tusk pannier kit on my bike and stepped up to the 9.5 kilo spring and I never bottom out the rear and I ride slightly aggressive sometimes.

Hello Paddy, I have been trying to look up the parts that you have recommended changing but struggling to find any for the CRF300L. Are the parts you have replaced on yours for the previous CRF250L? Could you please pass on the details of the FMF exhaust? Thank you for uploading the video. Very detailed and informative 😎

Hey Adam, I have been looking for parts as well and I was told parts will be available mid this year. Cool website called CRF’s only has lots of parts for 250L and should get 300L mid year.

Lots, but not all of the parts are interchangeable.. bars, risers, suspension(-ish), pegs levers etc

There are a lot of 50 till 65 kg girls that will sweep the floor down with you. Expecially in Thailand. So be very carefull about saying such things. The 65 kg girls and less are very quick offended.😬 I love those bad ass girls.👊👊

Question??? Did you replace the rear shock spring with an Ohlins spring? Or did you replace the entire shock and spring?
@richierich92104 жыл бұрын
Good review Paddy. I'm up in BKK and have almost the exact same mods on the 250L (along with acerbis tank/ejk) and plan on buying a 2nd hand 300l in the next year or so and swapping everything over. 1 question, how is the power in comparison to the 250L? I had a big bore in the 250l that went pop but prior to popping it was decent power it made.
