Supermoto Build in ONE VIDEO - CRF300L

[@JDelta87]

The color of those wheels compliments the graphics kit quite well. The Honda is looking really good in supermoto trim.

[@Premises187]

Was looking at CRF300L's today and asked myself "has anyone SM'd one of these?". Glad to see you were the first YT result. Amazing work pal!

[@TheGardenSnake]

One of these days I’m coming over there to see spicy and you all

[@jessemacneil2723]

jake . ive been watching alot of ppl who own this bike and you have the nicest and sickest looking build . color scheme and style . so sick dude

[@constantinosschinas4503]

Got a 2009 KLX250s and was making fun of it but with the right tyres and snug to hairpin twisties it leaves a huuuuge smile on your face. You can drift with both wheels and 70Km/h and still feel like having fun. Also removed the clutch switch and bike switched to the fast map (weird i know) which ended up with 152km/h top speed, from 137(!!). I can't imagine how much more fun 17inch would be. Wish it was a D-Tracker, though the 21inch feels great when rural tarmac roads get overly rough or mixed with dirt.

[@leebrandencallaghan]

Dude, it looks sick! I'm liking the forged wheels. Insert gas, extract fun.

[@rtscren]

You cleaned off the OEM chain lube....... that stuff is like gold lol

[@TheGardenSnake]

Gold at attracting dirt and spraying lube EVERYWHERE 😂

[@merkel2750]

@@TheGardenSnake never had a new chain throw the factory lube anywhere lol

[@Petethepoolman]

I fitted this chain and yes it threw grease everywhere . Clean it before fitting it . I’m still finding white sticky grease all over 🤷🏻‍♂️🥲

[@thedailyruns6046]

Why is that can you explain?

[@tanishkakarnik1577]

It’s been a while since I’ve watched Jake’s videos, I’m glad he still enthusiasm about supermotos

[@chazlyle41]

Would be sick to see someone with a KLX300 factory SM ride along and compare with the CRF300L conversion. Obviously the KLX is the less expensive way to go, but a side by side of just how much better a swapped CRF is might help the cost difference to be more tangible/measurable.

[@TwistedTriggerEnduro]

Awesome video!! Impressive editing, great info, and amazing looking bike!! 🔥💪

[@TheGardenSnake]

Thanks

[@tarouyamada2686]

Pretty sweet, the wheels look awesome. Ah supermotos... maybe one day I will own one. Came pretty close when Honda offered the CRF250M over here, but never pulled the trigger, being vertically challenged dissuaded me pretty fast of the 855mm seat height 🤣 About the chain, having experience with road bikes and industrial chains, the interference fit in motorcycles clip links threw me off the first time I used one, is that possibly why there was so much talk about clip failures back in the day? Impossible to sit the plates by hand and it feels sketch trying to use pliers on it. I ended using a simple cheap C clamp, the old outer plate and 2 M8 nuts to sit over the pins and push the new outer plate straight in. The little leaflet that came with the link was pretty light in details, no mention of a chain tool as necessary for a correct installation.

[@TheGardenSnake]

Yeah that’s an o ring thing, the interference fit. I also have a c clamp I’ve used to do it. But the thing you gotta watch is sometimes the pins start pushing out the back of the inward link. If you install a non o ring chain (dirt bike use em) you’ll see the link just slips on.

[@francesucksdickful]

Dude don't let the high seat scare you, with supermoto trim it lowers it a bit and the bikes are so light, sumo will change your life! Worst case you can buy lowering links for most bikes.

[@nicholasadams9535]

Man I miss when motovloggers ran KZbin. Okay maybe not but the community used to be so big and now it just doesn't seem like it is. I love you jakey-poo. Been here since your DRZ. Glad you still upload man. Also, I have a 2020 CRF250F & now I wish I waited and got the 300. Thanks, dick.

[@DavideGTI86]

I usually hate forged wheels on supermotos but I have to say these looks very nice!

[@dawanderer5593]

i have watched already what you did for the abs. thanks for sharing .

[@daggarflynn9637]

I mean... I get what you're going for. I would love to put something like this on a track against an old Suzuki Bandit 400 (video suggestion hint hint). I think the Bandit would mop the floor with it on anything paved. You could probably get one for less than your cost in mods. Good to see what [can] be done.

[@goodpeoplebadintentions]

This Supermoto is only missing one OG Garden Snake feature, the Skate Wheel Slider!

[@DOBROE-ZLO89]

Супермото, отличный мотоцик 👍👍👍👍 пушка 👍👍👍👍

[@Dave-sw2dm]

I bought a KLX300SM. I wanted the suspension tuning that came with the KLX300SM. I may pick up a set of dual sport wheel/tires for road trips where I might ride both street and trail.

[@stuntdrvr]

a friend of mine in college was from France.. he had a super moto in 1996

[@Two_wheels_dasher]

Finally. Looks sick. I take this over the kawasaki klx300sm

[@lowverte3693]

Been rhinking sbout getting a used wr250r and getting super moto wheels

[@Tabbyf]

Wow this justifies getting a CRF300L!!! Two bikes in one!

[@ChumiStu]

Great vid as always... now we just have to wait for the wheeeelieees

[@constantinosschinas4503]

The graphics and color scheme are prerty horrendous but at the end i guess they fit the crazy DIY character supermotos have lol.

[@MikeLasruk]

Nice vid, thanks!

[@brentcollins9727]

So the bike, wheel kit and extras, to make it a street bike is about $7,150..Or just get a street CB300 R for $5,150. Is it that much better?

[@victorgonza4528]

Nice work , time to get an old CR500 .

[@TheGardenSnake]

In a crf450 frame!

[@templeofpower9942]

amazing work, increíble trabajo

[@user-np2mp7zp8g]

Bro what about suspension tuning and engine tuning ??

[@bransonbasher6534]

If 1980s Spider Man had a super moto this would be it.

[@roadkillbbq686]

Bad ass machine right there

[@11884sc]

What hand guard are those?

[@TeamDriftEVO]

I have been doing this since 1993 SuperMoto that is--- i was Danish Champion in 1995 on a CR500 equipped with CBR600F1 wheels -- So tell me W H Y its a bad idea to go with forged wheels ?. My current fun-bike is a -00 GASGSA 250 equipped with Aprilia RS125 forged wheels.

[@TURRYGGG]

Nice set up. Do the 17” SuperMoto wheels lower the seat height? If so how much approximately?

[@xgcwarmaster]

when i click the link for the front sprocket its only showing 13 - 14t could you please provide another link to the 15t sprocket thanks

[@cayden9678]

Can I get a dual sport and convert it to a supermoto

[@anglegrinderlover994]

dont you have to put on stiffer suspension? or do you not have to because dual sports have stiffer stuff than motocross/trail bikes

[@smokeinventory4202]

Do you by any chance have the link to the trex sliders I COULDNT FIND THE ONES YOU HAVE

[@williamfroncko6569]

@JakeTheGardenSnake do you have any problems with ABS? I have a very similar setup on my 300l and warp9 SM but have a blinking ABS light? Any ideas?

[@0ttoman]

Since you were going to remove the wheel and sprocket anyway. Why damage a brand new chain for nothing?

[@TheGardenSnake]

You still can’t remove it with those off. You’d have to remove the swing arm.

[@ghostrider4544]

Jake will the abs work if i put supermoto wheels on crf 250l abs

[@yougiely]

is the speedometer still work properly?

[@steveshot81]

looks sweet

[@munkyassproductions9178]

is the xr 650l a good bike for supermoto?

[@nacknackmigi8946]

what's the brand of the mags?

[@JMNacional-h7w]

can a 160 tire fit the rear swing arm?

[@TheGardenSnake]

Maybe, would probably get some chain rub. But with a 4.25” rim you won’t see a benefit from a 160. You actually can end up with less contact patch. The 150 is the way to go.

[@fuzzybullwinkle]

@Jake TheGardenSnake what do you think of an old 1985 Yamaha XT600 as a super Moto??

[@TheGardenSnake]

Well we never got that bike in the US. Not the Supermoto or dual sport. I know it’s on the heavier side. Wish we got them though. Looks fun.

[@javirabbit6536]

Torque value on rear axel nut? Please 🙏

This or DRZ400SM ?

is there buigger after market tank available for this bike ?

That moment when Jake use a Brazilian meme in his video. 🤯

[@davidjones9822]

Me watching 20 minute video to see what suspension changes I need to make, to not get an answer... surely compression and rebound changes need to be adjusted.

Consulta donde consigo el adaptador de disco a 320 !!

Sorry I only understand like half this but I think you’re asking about the 320mm rotor adapter. It’s very simple to install and works well.

From Warp9

[@wuttmodel3232]

Super super

[@neggo4290]

What tyres do you have for the enduro rims?

[@TheGardenSnake]

Right now the stock IRCs. Honestly they’re not a bad dual sport tire. Decent street grip and decent dirt grip. All you can really ask for.

[@neggo4290]

@@TheGardenSnake I'm trying to find the best tyres for my 701 enduro but all I had was really poor performance on the mud and wet terrains

[@TheGardenSnake]

You might want a more aggressive tire then. Down side is street performance will suffer. Trade offs will happen no matter how you slice it.

[@neggo4290]

@@TheGardenSnake oh well I only ride off road so I don't really care about street performance😂

[@angelusmortis3256]

about the same here... i started watching jake when i lived in cali no bike georgia no bike and now Dallas Texas about to get a bike lol

[@scottyd2262]

You should only cut the fork guards where your wheel runs. Put your caliper on before fitting your front wheel. Finger tight all of your axle bolts then spin your front wheel and apply your brake a couple of times before tightening it all up. Most importantly USE LOCTITE on the caliper mount and caliper bolts !!!! I've owned a couple of Supermoto's .. Not trying to be a know it all.. Just trying to help anyone that's going to do this job. You'll be happy that I've told you these things. They are the best bikes imo to ride around on the road for short distances for sure !!!

[@Mac-bn]

nice content. is your wheel sizes 17-3.5 and 17-4.5. Some friends advice me for the rear to use 17-4.25, from your experience what you think of the rear sizes which is the best is it 17-4.5 or 17-4.25. Thanks

[@brian636]

Came out SICK!!!

[@brendan636]

Time to get a proper case saver. First ride out on my 450L and it ended up packing its self full of mud and stones. Supermoto is not for me but good video for any one that wants to do it.

[@TheGardenSnake]

Yep yep yep haha. I hate that thing. But the aftermarket ones I’ve seen don’t have a case saver built in. They’re just open covers. May hack this thing up to open it up.

[@d1zguy864]

What are the rim and tire sizes? Want to go with the same dimensions you did for my first

[@Nine_883]

When I start adding up all the mods on this bike. I am quickly approaching the 450 price. And I have stopped adding up the numbers. If I added them all up I think I would be approaching African Queen price. 😜😜. I am following every video though and taking in what I think I might want to do and what I can live without.

[@alexchristian5399]

A summary: super Moto = normal moto with normal moto preformance on normal moto terrain…. BUT EVERYTHING IS THE OPPOSITE BECAUSE ITS ON THE ROAD THIS TIME!!!!

[@davidmadison5582]

You're the reason I have this bike in a super moto. Sport bikes were first. But now I have my cbr600rr (since 2016) and my 21' crf300l which I super moto'd today. I haven't gotten to mess with it too much but it's basically a huge, powerful Grom. Which was probably my most enjoyed bike I've ever had

[@GoehlzBrotherz]

Hi, did you have any problems with ABS and did you get a acceptance for the bike? I am looking forward to also buy one and convert it to super moto but in germany laws about the acceptance are very strict...

[@timmychen6]

I wonder how much shorter if you convert it to supermoto. I don’t want it to be short since dual sport setup is already a bit short for me

[@NoFac3fitness]

Ouff i am existed to when I can ride a 300, I live in Norway so i only have the a1 license, got a Yamaha wr125x but I wish it had more power tho, it still wheelies like a king so can’t really complain
