I had one of these. Now I have 2 Husqvarna's, a 2-stroke, and a lightweight adventure bike. As soon as these break I'll go back to the Honda again. Such fond memories of this little bike.

This is probably the most popular all-rounder in australia, I cant fault it, especially when bikes with more features and power have broken down and left friends behind. Great video.

Great review! I'm looking for some easier trails to start out on. What road number is that one?

Love the road. Just what dual sports were designed for. I have the Rally version as I ride over a hour to reach the forest trails near me. Enjoyed the ride. Best!

Great review. I really enjoyed the trail parts, it was relaxing.

Great comprehensive review, I love my 300l, its such a nimble bike, I think the original setup for light that comes out on the dashboard it tells you that bike starts to consume more fuel after the light comes on ,so it helps to maintain a good fuel economy

Hi ananda great video, I have the 300 rally, I see yours got a wider/bigger tires ? Mine , the stock ones are thinner, can u tell me if u got new ones ??

Thanks for this review, Ananda. I have my eye on one of those. Going to take it out to New Mexico so I can write it around the boonies with my grandson. I’ve got a big ADV bike. I ride it here in Texas, but it’s too big, too heavy and really, too much of a hassle to ride a lot of off-road.

I think this type of duel sport bike review would be better if you included some single track riding Keep up the good work 👍

I ride one in the UK the Rally one with bigger tank and more fairings to break, mainly used for the TET and commuting, it's fantastic! Rarely see others on the road, too slow for most I think.

I enjoy that you are being quiet. I love to hear the sound of the engine. I’ve been thinking about getting a used CB 300 R for these type of adventures. Do you think that small street bike suspension could handle easy roads like this? I like to ride gravel roads. At 62 years old I’m finding out that my mind is writing checks my body can’t cash.😂

In response to mention of no skid plate. Even though you are not grinding over boulder's, log's etc. It is quite possible for the front tire to send a rock into the engine case and put you out of business. Zip tie a piece of thin aluminum or steel on there temporarily until you get a good one on it. Have fun.

I guess its time I learned how to ride in the dirt, because the views just seem to get better as the video goes on.

That motorcycle is the LS model with ABS for the US market. The seat height is 32.7". 9.3 inches of front fork travel and 9 inches rear suspension. At 130lbs the bike is sprung perfectly for you. Adjust your rear suspension sag and fork height in the clamp and you're good to go.

Looks like Castiac. There's also a cool ride off the N2 that I used to do that takes you to Lake Hughes. We'd ride out there and have lunch at the local biker bar and then ride back. As long as you weren't being stupid the local law was cool with you riding non-plated bikes into town. My wife would ride her DRZ125L and I'd ride my RM250. We'd have quads and a Honda Pilot 400 along as well. There's another route above Sunland that takes you to the east side of the mountains. Check in with the local ranger office and they'll give you the lock code for the gates up there. When I was living In Santa Clarita from '02-'05 very few people knew about it.

Suspension is too soft, but it's an easy fix . It's better than the Kawi due to how they both did their motors . Team Green just stroked their motor. Honda did their displacement but never touched the stroke . So the Honda motor is still cheap to upgrade the motor . But team green will cost you more motor wise . But Kawi gave you a better suspension in turn .

Just to decipher that code: L or RL stands for model (L or Rally), A stands for ABS, M/N/P stands for 2021/2022/2023. D is used for Thai domestic market which is lower seat height, and also for (U.S. only) LS model which I guess is based on that.

Man, what a nice place to ride. Wish we had mountains here in Florida. I am about to get a 300l on Sunday. Can't wait. By my job, there is a dirt bike and ATV park. But in other places, a lot of sand trails. But I also have Vtx1300c, MT-07, and a Grom. A little bit for everything.

These little fuel tanks need to go away. Stop buying them until they put 12 liter tanks on all these little dual sports

Is it worth it? It's dirt cheap, of course it is.

I had the crf250l and thought about getting the crf300l but when i found out it only has 286cc i felt like it wouldnt be worth the upgrade. I bought the mighty suzuki dr650 and love it.
