Loved the engine/weight of the 690 but 790 looked like the better overall package at the time for bush/adv touring. 690 I would of have to spend a bit of money making it a comfortable all rounder with fuel, seat, luggage etc. I imagine the 701 is closer to CRF300L weight/comfort wise? I guess that would make the decision harder, CRF you only gaining cheaper to buy, run and maintain, less worried about dropping it/repairing because of price, reliability? also can probably ride the 300 harder without getting in to the trouble you would with the 701. I have a 300cc scooter and for me find the power perfectly fine considering it’s only a 300, my scooter comfortably does 120 on highway and enough power for legal speeds on the road. It’s also does 2.4l/100km. 701 would be more fun but for my skills if being honest I’d probably ride the 300 better as had more fun on an old ttr600 and xr250 I’ve ridden before as could push them a lot harder without getting in to trouble compared to my 790.

A little bit of advice, buy a tascam DR-05X and purple panda 🎤. Record the audio via that, and overlay and mix in the editing process, this all depends on your editing app/program. I use lumafusion, takes a day or two of KZread tutorials to get the hang of it, but once you’ve mastered the basics, it gets easier the more you go. Tip; clap 3 times in front of the camera at the beginning of your vid to sync up the vid and audio file, the ( sound ) wave files will peak on both device recordings and it’s just a simple matter of click and dragging the visual wave files on your editing app til they match up. If you stop recording ( for any reason ) remember to stop on both devices, and repeat the process when you start again, makes editing waaaaaay less of a headache. Good luck. P.S.

Gotta remember yank highways can be high speed and high aggression. The general traffic flows at 120+ and you'll get tailgated for doing less. I wouldn't like to ride a small bike on those roads. Oz is pretty different, much as we like to complain most drivers are relatively chilled and the average speeds are lower. It's not outrageous to do 90-100 here, in some places in the US you'd get heaps of aggro for that. That colours the US reviews. Back to the 300: as Shonk says a steady 110 is fine. Personally I don't like it though so I stick closer to 100 and enjoy the lesser wind noise and better fuel economy, unless I'm in a hurry.

As off road & single track all's good.. put it through soft sand, sticky mud no good.. as an adventurer, miles of county gravel roads or highways a lot more tiring buzzy motors & really struggle with load & headwinds.. they can do it but not relaxing at all.. small riders & big bikes have never worked.. if you can't pick it up comfortably there's no place for a big bike.. same for road bikes

What GPS unit are you using? Have you installed your 550 ECU yet? I have mine installed( what a difference) I did go down to a 13tin the front. I need to go back to the 14 I lost hiway speed.

Hi, yes ECU installed.... See my new video. I'm using the OSMand app for off-line mapping on a Chinese rugged phone. The phone was cheap, is waterproof and I don't even run a SIM card in it... It's just used as a GPS. I really like the OSMand app for a gps. I might do a review on that in the future.

Great videos! I really like the 550 performance Ecu. I want to go back yo my 14 tooth front for hiway use( I dont use it all that much , but when I do the 13 seems too low and it revs at 8500 at 70 mph. Thanks for the advice on the Chinese phone for a gps unit. My phone take a beating

@@bzrider29 Let me know how the 14t works for you with the 550 performance ECU. I think you will like it. I might do a quick set-up and review video of my phone as GPS set-up... a few people are asking.

@Shonky Productions Did you delete abs? if not? how is it? Honest opinion - im thinking about removing the fuse - hows the slipper clutch effect steep down hill engine breaking

Hi Gromice, that's a great question... In my opinion, if you are a competent rider, you will do better without the ABS. I have unplugged the ABS pump from the wiring loom. But simply removing the fuse will do the same thing. You get the ABS light ON all the time but everything else is fine. I've bought some normal brake lines and will be removing all the ABS equipment soon and making a video on it and why I've done it. The slipper clutch is not an issue and if you watch my Adventure Ride video, you will see me doing a lot of steep downhills using just the engine braking.

It's funny to see you comparing it to "big bikes" which are officially supposed to be middle weights! I agree though, they are big bikes. I have done lots of similar riding in groups and it is often striking that the speed of a bike and rider is sometimes inversely proportional to horse power! That is the DRs and WRs at the front (with the 690s and 701s), the middle weight teneres etc in the middle and those brave enough to ride an 1190/gs1200/ africa twin bringing up the rear! It would be interesting to see a comparison of the 300 with the other popular single cylinder bikes. Why would I get a crf 300 instead of a DR 650 for example?

Haha..Yes, I think the same way. Anything over a 450 is a big bike to me.

I'm in that dilemma right now.. 300 Rally or DR650. Fuel injection is a big plus for me, better wind protection, better lighting.

Where did you get your 38 tooth rear sprocket? I can’t seem to find one.

How do you like the 14/38 gearing?

@ShonkyProductions

Rob, I love the 14/38 gearing. I got this gearing after reading reports from guys that have the 550performance ECU fitted and they were saying it could pull the taller gearing. I'm still waiting for my ECU to turn up...I think the 38t is better in gears 1-5 but slightly down on power/torque in 6th. Should be perfect when the ECU turns up.

What went wrong here, under 300cc, its like buying a scooter with a rally kit on it. Should have been minimum 400cc!

What name is the white bike ? I love your video
