"We took our standard CRF300L and gave it a lower seat height. Shorter riders will love it on- or off-road, and so will everyone who rides in the city where you need to put your feet down more often in parking lots and stoplights. To top it off, the CRF300LS gets a special paint scheme." Thanks for the review.

Extremely well done, thanks, please keep them coming.

Cool review, being able to put your feet down is so awesome for back country riding, thanks

Love it. Especially the different color scheme. One of these might have to be my next bike.

Always a good review.

great review on a bike not many people are talking about. looking into getting into riding and want a lower power dual sport like this or the tw200, pretty short at around 5'6 so this looks like it would be great on and off road

I LOVE the colors of this machine.

Gorgeous looking bike and perfect dual purpose all rounder!

Thanks for the great video n LS stands for Low Seathight

The twitchy throttle can be improved by adjusting the throttle cable on the right side of the engine . Your owners manual shows where and how. The cable can be loose so just tighten to remove the slack. I think I adjusted mine 3 times before it remained adjusted. I don’t have an ECM and you probably won’t need one after adjusting the throttle cable. You can install a stand off bracket to move the brake line out of your line of sight so you can see your dash better

I have 28.5 inch inseam and this might be my nxet bike. Thanks for the review.

This model looks very much like a future bike. I have never had abs on a bike but it worked in semis I drove!

I'm going to wait until next spring, as the riding season is almost done here, plus I have a few things to take care of yet, but I've been kicking around either the KLX230s, or this, since I saw it. Any preferences either way?

I hope they offer the Rally in "S" and still in red like they do in Asia but for US. Most of us would be willing to trade off a bit of travel for lower CG and easier footing for more confidence.

I just bought this motorcycle in Thailand. The Thai version doesn't have ABS but it's so much cheaper here than in the US it's crazy. Mine is going to the local motard specialist for full supermoto conversion next week.

I got this bike" and well old school comes to mind" but with all the great things that new brings. I can flat foot this thing" and at 60 years old I need that. No ya can't jump school buses anymore but man I love this bike. Only thing I'd change is I wanted the red" Honda's are just red I think.

I love this bike! The is great, my favorite color is grey and silver so the color of this bike is right down my lane. Its a 300cc which is not too big and not too little. Its a nice adventurous type bike and thats what i love. After having kids i let my Suzuki Katana 600 sit way too long and now the carbs are F'd up. But im done with straightup street bikes, i want a dual sport bike. Love the vid and i too couldnt find any good vids of people ACTUALLY riding it. Whats the cruising speed and top speed? BTW, does this bike have rear pegs for another rider???

Subbed 😊

One question, the front and rear shock absorbers are the same on the L version?

I can't wait to order one if they are in Australia. I had on of the first ones & im too short for grounding. This version sounds perfect. At least that black paint stays on the bike unlike the silver

Great one..i like the color and sound where is made..? and the price ..pls..i like to have some info..about the shop where you get it..Thanks

Finally!!

May I inquire how tall you are? I took a test ride on the KLX 300 DS and i was toeing it! Standing 5'4 i might now have to check this model out if it is as low as mentioned.

Would you trust this bike on the highway doing speeds of like 65-70? I’m mainly looking at one for commuting to work and back but would still like to be able to jump on the highway and head out of town to camp and stuff every once in awhile.

Nice review ! Love the powder coat frame and color scheme ! Looks sweet So I contemplated between the KLX300/CRF300L/XT250 for many months . Being the short legged guy I am , I reluctantly decided on the XT250 . It’s a great little bike but it just falls short in a couple categories ( like the 5speed transmission, and just a little underpowered for anything more than two tracking and it’s a little wobbly at speeds over 60 mph . But it’s a great little bike , just didn’t quite satisfy my needs . The CRF300LS checks all the boxes and appears to be just what I was looking for when I first ventured out to find a dual sport . Well as soon as I got wind of this bike coming out , I just sold the XT250 last month and now I’m waiting for the CRF300LS to arrive at my dealer . They are allocated for two and I reserved one ☝️ However, they have no clue when the shipment will be 🙄 Hopefully before this summer is over , maybe I’ll get a couple of months in before the snow flies again lol !

My XT250 isn't wobbly at 60 or more at all. It's very stable. Also the ground clearance is a bit more on the XT250. If seat height is the main concern, The OTD price in a new CRF300ls isn't worth the difference over a good used XT250.

That would suit me as in a short rider who just plods along on trails and a bit of single tracks ,I like the colour to it seams less steelable ,but still a 300 and very reliable I think I’ll sell my 250 and get one I like the 6 th gear for the road and it’s easy to pick it up as that’s one thing that tiers you out

Can you tell us the total height of the spike including the mirrors As I cannot find this information on the Honda website

Simply love that bike and will have a test ride in near future. There are only two things, I don't like so much, none of wich is a real dealbreaker: First is to be seen at 1:51 the cable running through your vision. Is that fixable? Second: The same bike in Asia has a great LED headlight mask which looks much more modern including LED blinkers. Maybe my Honda dealer can order these and replace afterwards. Thanks for that great video and for your enthusiastic mood while vlogging. Thumbs up! PS: Wow: You sure know how to ride on sandy/muddy terrain! Kind regards from Germany.

Is it jist a shorter rear spring? I notice in the specs you put up both the seat height and ground clearance drop about 2 inches, maybe the only difference is a shorter spring to drop the rear a couple inches

Nice review! I own a CRF 250 L of 2018 and I’m in no hurry to upgrade because I love my bike but also because I’m 1,66 mt x 50 kg (5.5 ft for 110 pounds) so I touch only with my toe tips, but if this very LS will be imported in Italy I will almost certainly buy one. I just written to Honda Italia to ask but they don’t know yet.
