Thank you for this video. I hope it resonates with riders entering our sport and inspires them to start on something less intimidating than an full MX bike.

MX factory I was riding my dirt bike one day and I broke my arm riding are inspiration to me ever since you guys were the people that taught me how to do most the stuff I know how to do you really helped me out through these past few couple months I’ve had my bike I ride a CRF 100 broke my arm and you guys just seem pretty inspiration to give me back riding although I will not be riding until my arm is healed 👍

Great vid great advice.

turns out the klx 230 is only 4 seconds slower at glen Helen compared to the new crf450.

That was great. Thank you.

Thx guys 🤙🏻

Really Helpful. Thanks A lot I have a crf230f and wanted to see if it could keep up with some of my mates' bikes, And as it turns out if i ride enough after my broken wrist is healed i should be able to!!! :)

Nice video! My daughter has no problem keeping up with me on our home track, crf230f vs. klx300r. She's ten years old. Technique makes all of the difference.

The 230 is SUCH a fun bike. You can really hammer on some tight technical trails. I am probably going to race a HS on mine this year over my usual CR125

Thanks for the video. I have been street riding for almost a decade but never ridden off road and want to get into it. I don’t want to get a small ~250cc bike for ~$5k and out grow it in six months and have to go shell out another ~$9k for a 450 a year later, but seeing this it looks like a could get the smaller bike and just tear it up for a long time without needing to upgrade to a 450 right away

nice video one more time!!!!! An idea watching ur video is in one episode to make a guide of building beginner mx tracks like this one. GREETINGS FROM GREECE!!

I first raced MX back in the day on a ‘90 XR250 against 250 2 strokes. Riding a heavier, less powerful, and more poorly suspended bike taught me how to be smooth and maintain momentum. It was fun to see the look on people’s faces when I beat them while riding a “girls bike”, or when they found out that it was 250 and not a 600! Power is a crutch that will mask proper technique when you are learning.

Great video. I’m in the market for a bike so v useful. Cheers!😀👍👍

I got my first bike and it was a 2020 KLX140G and it was a blast! Now I’m on a 1999 RM250 2 stroke and it’s scaring the crap out of me!

I have a 2020 KLX230R I love it. It's my first my bike I just bought it 5 months ago 👍 Nothing wrong with I've had no problems with it 👍👍

Do you guys have a video on doing jumps? Like big ones? And climbing steep mountains? There's some in Las Vegas.

I have been riding a crf150f for a little while now I’m on a rm125 and I can definitely say the trail bike has helped me a lot

Great video. Would however like to see the same with the KLX230R compared to a 250F. The point that you made about starting out on a cheaper and easier to ride trail bike was excellent. I think the better progression would be KLX230 to 250F to 450F for most riders. On a beginner friendly practice track the difference might only be 1/2 second when compared to a 250F.

I wasnt that much slower actually. Only a couple seconds which is pretty awesome considering the HP and handling difference. I was passing some serious novices that were on 250Fs and 450s lmao.

I take the KLX 300R to the motocross track all the time. No issues. Tighten up the suspension and drop a Dynojet in it and you’re good. I wouldn’t hit triples on it or anything but it’s fine for a beginner/novice. 👍🏽

on this kind of track i was sure it will be close :) i'm riding chinese 250, air cooled xmotos xb39 and i'm also surprised how good it is. What's best - it costs half price of the klx 230! in my opinion the suspension is much closer to real mx bikes. I will try to make similar comparesion if my dud will borow me his new yzf ;)

In my opinion the track was way to small for the 450 to unleash much power

here in Brazil we use the CRF 230, is like the most commun dirt bike

I got my son a klx140 to start on, next year will probably be a kx85/100 2 stroke. The klx140 is so easy for him to learn on, by the time he gets to a lighter faster bike he will be ready to rip.

The longer you just focus on technique, the better👍 Thanks for the support!

I wasn't surprised. We did the this test awhile Ago my buddy who is very good rider got on my crf230 and did this. He said its rare that your average joe better then what the any racing 250f can do. Would like a vidoe of a great rider on a 250f and a average rider on a 450.

I’m 12 I have a Klx 230r it’s a great trail bike and it cans do some jumps definitely recommend

How is the klx 230R compared with the CRF 230F power, and suspension?

One problem going to a track with a 230. It is impossible to clear some jumps that come out of a corner quick because it simply doesn’t have enough power.

I've done the same thing with my RM 125 and my wife's KLX 125. They were only 2 seconds apart. Everyone has a speed limit. 😂

I didn’t think it be much different since it’s a flatter track. But let’s say you go to Glen Helen or red bud it’s gunna be a huge difference

i wonder if you can do jumps like that on a xt250

Can u do 1 on klx 300r I've got 1 and love it it is more than capable of keeping up with m8s who ride 450s

Ngl but the klx still looks sick(without all the weird headlight and mirrors)

I bought a used Honda CRF 230f in 2008 for exactly the reasons given. It helped me significantly improve. It has over 600 hard hours on the all original engine. Uncork them, and they become much better. Maybe even one second per lap better! Super fun bikes, especially after smoking guys on “real” bikes after they ask why you’re riding a girl’s bike.

I just picked up a 2020 klx230r for 3800 bucks. I have to say the bike doesn't disappoint.

I own a klx230 because the price was perfect at my time in life and with my riding experience of 18 years I keep up with all my buddies on the trail with their more powerful Ktms. Especially the hill climbs they are always shocked with laughter i always make it up there with them a bit slower but constant rpm and great technique

Hi Tyler, I started riding on a RMZ250 coming from quads. I've been riding once or twice a week for a couple months, but it still feels like I can barely ride. I've watched countless videos on attack position and technique but no matter what I do it seems like the bike is always trying to get away from me.

It just takes time for that comfort. I came from being a pretty fast quad guy to brand new on bikes. It’s taken me 2 years to get to the comfort I was used to on the quad. The biggest thing to remember is that the bikes can play around more side to side, and still be okay. On the quads when it starts swapping usually your day is over. But the bike can get away with a lot more and it takes a lot get used to letting it move. One big thing that helped me is riding on the balls of my feet and gripping with my knees

Great comparison of the difference between the 2 styles of bike. Totally agree that the 230 is a MUCH better bike to learn on. How about getting both those beasts on the trails and then you’d see some differences. 230 will kill the CRF.

Quick question to my fellow Mx boys and girls. If I’m 15 and have been riding bikes since I was 11 but have just started competitive racing, is it too late for me to have a professional carrier waiting for me down the road? Please let me know

I been riding since i was 14 and if ur not super coordinated dont by a pro 250f or a 450f if u never rode ever...yeah a year sounds fair..learn to ride on 80cc KX Used CRF 80 150cc is good learn to work all the controls on an 80cc or 150 f its all the same u have to be a step ahead of the bike an the 80 is just as fast an moves the same way once u get everything automatic gas clutch foot brakes gas an front brake timing an feel the down on a mini 80 or 150f...u will now realized the extra size an power difference an be like whooooaa u were right. Again....u know my dad had a phrase growing up...am i talking for my health or just talking to hear my self talk..both...ok thats to phrases...really get a starter bike is real important try to get one with a clutch at least so u learn the gas clutch timing an brake...i have seen too many video yee haaw..people take gas an clutch an i see they dont even know where the brakes are there feet are off the pegs...it make sick when someone goes into a fence or a tree...regular folks will blame the motorcycle truth is we humans started out on bicycles they became motorcycles then cars came around after motorcycles.....get a small shifty little pit bike even..get the least amount of bike slowest thing u can fit on...that green bike sure is purdy...an long travel...u still should get an 80 a honda 150CRF is right in the medium category an when u get it figured out its a sick fast real race bike just taller kids sprouting...so an adult could fit an ride it...if u got no talent an cant listen an learn buy a ZR 50cc or an XR 80 is too much for u 5 gears 4 ??

What if i have a chinese 150 dirt bike that is 150kg with a sketchy frame

I have a crf 150r and a friend has that same Kawasaki bike and on a straight short race I easy ate him but on a large race he beats me barely

Now try 125cc 4 stroke (chineese) vs 85 2 stroke
