XPRO Templar 250, Dirt Cheap Dirt Bike, Adventure bike?? Lets talk about that.

[@GIZMOTOSWFL]

First comment! And you convinced me to by myself a Templar X 250!! Coming in from Amazon next Tuesday! Love the content brother!!

[@SeaMonkey-qy7ri]

THATS AWESOME!! LET ME KNOW HOW IT GOES! Also, remember that YOU are the auto-dealership in this case, so do a FULL PMCS of the bike once its together. Look for ANY loose bolts or spokes for real. And use up a FULL bottle of blue lock tight on it. Also, remember to change the oil before you turn the engine over even one time. Thats important and people often forget. HAVE A BLAST BROTHER AND KEEP ON ROLLIN!

[@UUas_Ho0man]

can you possibly link the place you got your templar X? I am only finding the titan

[@GIZMOTOSWFL]

@@SeaMonkey-qy7ri Most definitely!! I want to make a few clips on me putting it together and all the little things I may come across. And yes 100% listening to your videos and others everyone says to blue lock tight the bolts, grease what you can, and definitely change the oil out before turning it over. Definitely looking into getting the Nibbi PE30 carb (also for those other xpro riders) the nibbi will have a little better room for the carb on the Templar X! I’ll keep you updated on my thoughts about the bike my friend! Thank you again for the great videos and awesome information!!

[@GIZMOTOSWFL]

@@UUas_Ho0man my friend! I did about 15 mins of looking and I cannot find them on Amazon at all! I looked at my link I used on Amazon for the Templar x and it now says currently unavailable. I’d say keep an eye on it for it to become available again. I’ll still send the link for the unavailable one for you!

[@UUas_Ho0man]

@@GIZMOTOSWFL Yeah i figured that was the case, i was looking through and couldnt find it. Thank you for checking and letting me know anyway though! have fun and ride safe out there

I bought this model Templar and I really like it. The bike works completely fine, for the cost its a bargain. Once I rode a DR200 From western Washington to Montana and back on a Two week Moto trip, packed all my camping gear and tools, I had a great trip 👍 Got there and back no problem, I just stuck to the FS roads and off the beaten path, this bike is completely capable of the same kind of trip no problem. I completely get what you are saying, you don’t need to break the bank to have a good time, unless however you’re one of those people that like space man gear, heavy 800lb bikes that takes two people to pick up when you drop it in the campground next to your tent. 😂

Hey Mike, One Of Your Subscribers Here. Can't Wait For You To Do Another Video On Your X-Pro 150. Thank You. (Like #3)

[@lanceerrickson4212]

I owned the cousin bike to yours (XPro Titan 250). I ran the heck out of it and chose it because it was way lighter than the Hawk 250. I had to fix some things, but for a cheap trail bike (essentially a copy of the Honda 230), it was hard to beat.

[@ScoobyDo0.]

That brand is actually the only Chinese dirt bike brand to make something higher than a 250 which is a 300cc, I’m interested in checking that one out

[@michaeldavison430]

Absolutely agree! Been riding and racing for decades with all of the usual brands, still ride major brands for trials and singletrack. I picked up a Templar X last spring in a moment of frustration with my local Honda dealers and couldn't be happier with it. I upgraded to a Nibbi carb and an RK chain and havent looked back. That being said if your a "bring it to the dealer" type of rider its probably better to avoid these bikes as they do require more attention than a major brand but if you like basic tinkering they are quite enjoyable. For those curious the performance is similar to an old school Honda XR200-250 with better chassis geometry and suspension. These things are so decent that one of my singletrack riding group has purchased one after spending a day on mine so we can do some BDR routes together this summer.

[@idahoduckhunter]

Love this series. Thanks for it!

[@Coco-Crisp25]

You’re right! You don’t need to spend a lot of money to have fun. I was looking at the Templar x or m, but they were sold out. I ended up getting a Trailmaster 35 250cc and it’s an awesome bike for the money. I also did the nibbi 28mm carb upgrade. The carb is greatttttt!!!

[@powderhorn4043]

Great bike, i got one a 2023, alot of fun.

[@SeaMonkey-qy7ri]

How much do you think and Adventure Bike (tm) should cost?

[@michaeldavison430]

An adventure bikes proper cost depends upon the financial situation of the buyer. It should cost enough to be reliable but not enough to hurt you should it be lost, damaged or stolen during your adventure. There is a place for BMW GS's and a place for Templars, I could have either but for my brand of fun a Templar X is the clear winner (zero stress, all fun).

[@JoshuaMitchek-ur4jt]

These bikes are no KTM 1290 Adventures, but they do provide just as much fun. Sure if you have 20 grand to blow, then buy the fancy stuff. But you’re not going to have a more enjoyable time. Probably less because now your stressed to break your bike and your pocket book took a serious beating. I ride to get away from stress, to clear my mind, and escape the rat race. And these cheap dirt bikes perform exceptionally well for those purposes! Ride on, and stay rubber side down!

[@cosamuel7182]

Are we really comparing an air cooled POS knockoff of a 1970's era honda to a 150HP rocketship with heated seat and cruise control?!? I'm with you on the pricing and marketing going off the rails these days. But you clicked on the wrong tab on the Honda website. This thing has about as much in common with an Africa Twin as NYC does with that slice of heaven where you are riding.

[@jamesmealing-gd8jv]

The secret is out😮

[@thewildbunch2782]

I don't know how much work has been done to them but I've seen alot of Hondas with 50,000 miles on them. Needless to say, i am not giving that much money for a honda anyway. I will take my chances with the China bike.

[@dronus]

I got my girls the xpro 125's and getting my twin boys these cause the titan dlx is out of stock. Im in wa and currently looking for orv spots to go camping and riding.

[@Devil3R]

Is this the Xpro 250X? or the newest model?

[@renski8976]

It's the base model. Not the M or X.

A lot of ignorance on display here 🤷‍♂️
