Most riders who want 1000cc adventure bikes are fat dudes. But they are just making it worse: almost 500 kg on mud or sand?! Getting stuck 90 % of the trip

Love your story. Makes me think about my life.
This lady is an inspiration. Hope she enjoyed her adventure. Jealous.
I took the crf250L on the trans America trail last year and made it from NY to Arkansas. Gonna finish it up next year on this awesome little bike. Love it. This bike rocks
well done to you,,,, I am so proud when women do big things
Steph, you are an inspiration. Look forward to following your world travels
ive had 4 bikes in my life 2 Yamahas, a 360 and 400 single 2 stroke thumpers amazing bikes, then two 4stroke Kawasaki dirt bikes, a 250KLX then a 450 off road but now im looking into this my first Honda. love this video thanku good luck on your travels u are a lovely lady.
I purchased my Honda CRF 250L as my first bike since 1972. I am 62 now, and have found new but different joy in riding. I ride the backroads of Sonoma County, CA and love every moment of it. Great beginning bike for someone who hasnt ridden in so long.

Thanks for sharing, sounds like a great place to enjoy with a great Honda model! And we're happy you've rediscovered the joy it can bring!
I've had my CRF250L since 2013. Great little bike. It's the perfect choice for your adventure, and for all the reasons you described.
Just bought a used CRF250L with 3,700 miles & lot of upgrades. Just got my permit & insurance. Can't wait to ride with my buddy this weekend. Aloha from Hawaii!
Wow, all I can say is "How I admire you!" I would love to tour around the world on a motorcycle but you are in a league of your own!!!! Awesome!

+HondaVideo and i would love to do it with my CRF250L - unfortunatly money would be a big constraint for me ):
So fantastic Steph - I am watching this knowing that you are days away from London and your victorious return!! You will go down in History.
Good luck on your great adventure ! ! I have a 250L ordered can't wait to get ridding too.
What an amazing adventure you have ahead of you! Wishing you the best of luck all the way RTW!
Good job miss Jeavons. That kind of adventure is in my dreams.. Greetings from Turkey..
It looks epic. Please keep us posted. Best of luck.
Very nice tellings and views..thanks.
Godspeed Steph! you're an inspiration!!
Just got my 2017 CRF250l and I'm loving it!
I bought your book! Just stumbled on this! Lovely to see you speak x
Truly epic!! :) Really cool to see on a light bike as well lightness is brilliant.
Makes me happy to be a 250L owner. I hope she completes her adventure good luck.
awesome, can't wait for the next vid! keep them going.
I bet that was a trip of a life time. Awesome 👏😎
Good luck and Good riding Steph. I'll be following if I'm not out riding.
Awesome, you go girl!! So inspiring
Love from Greece. Go on , live your dream.
This girl has balls!!!!
Respect , go for it ! Yes so true , a light bike like you have is the way to go . You can pick it up and go many places where the big heavy bikes can not . Be safe ok and enjoy the trip .
I have been following your journey updates on the form..Pretty awesome trip. Keep the updates coming
Great adventure! All the best to you! And I agree with regards to choice of the bike. Small, light, nimble and very user friendly machine. Not the usual 1000cc+ heavy locomotive that lumbers around like a diesel tractor.
Good luck! I'm sure the CRF will take good care of you!
A good rider wont need a 1000cc..you go girl... go go go...have fun Steph x
brave soul. Respect.
Steph proves small bikes are better all round! Great fun on small bikes! 😎🏍
I've been searching my Whole life For a woman like you Women like you are very rare you should feel very proud The your ventures be for feeling good luck on your quest
Awesome! Your adventure reminds me of Lois Pryce and her adventure on her 225cc bike. I think a smaller bike makes a great deal of sense as long as you are not in a great hurry. Best of luck.
You are absolutely right on the smells you can pick up you would have missed in a car. When a friend and I crossed from the U. S. to British Columbia, as soon as we crossed the border the scent of millions of fir trees was noticeable. It smelled like Christmas instantly. I would have missed that in a car, and the experience would have been much different.
Good luck and good times.
Outstanding!!! If you make to Phoenix, AZ, let me know. I would love to help. Safe Travels!
Go for it!!
Just discovered this and am in awe! I would like to know Steph where you got the front rack from please. Kind regards Mark
Living the ADV dream!
Fantastic.. ultimately reliability matters more than size really and lightness is always helpful. Have a great trip.
Amazing IM from east Timor 🙏🏻
Hope it goes well.. Adventures beckon.. All the best
OMG..you are Steel Women no doubt..huge inspiration..Lord Bliss You..yes The Dreamer..

Fantastic... What tank have you got on the bike? That is exactly what I need. Stay on two wheels.
A great video. And a great adventure. If you ever need free lodging in western Canada, I have had numerous Adventure bikes and I have been riding for 41 years. 😀

Amazing! I wish well on your many journeys. Could you please tell me though, where can I get one of those windshield? That is a totally awesome design. P.S., if you pass through Tyler,TX we’ll put you up.
Respect.
Alright, my goal for this year it so buy this bike at some point when the summer is over. :)
Que maravilla de moto felicidades.
You going to be anywhere around Southern Utah if you go through the US? I would love to ride a few miles with you. I so admire what you are doing. Truly epic! Best of luck to you. Is that helmet in the video the Nolan X-lite? Take care of yourself.
I like that front basket
Yup, that's a good adventure bike choice. Low weight, long range, reliable, simple and one thing people don't pay attention to is cheap tires... I now use a KTM 500 for the same type of riding and gave up my perfectly set up 990 for it...
Steph, superb. What make is your front rack over the headlight please ? :)
Lol, I've ridden a dirt bike once I was 4 years old. the best crash of my life. I was completely fine but messed up my body armor when I was going 70 per hour. Today I'm still riding bikes mostly the 250L and the 250L Rally with the yz250 Yamaha. when people crash you either learn from it or give up. trust me once you are good at dirt biking or motorcycling you won't crash I've never crashed my bikes for 8 years. I hope all motorcycle riders have a good day.
I want to do a journey like her!!!! CRF250 is light weight and tough. Especially, a weight is important for me. When I have a journey with motorcycle, I will ride Honda CRF250L or M!!!!

I'm also interested, that looks like a useful integrated windscreen for winter.
Did she make it? I hope so! Where are the follow up videos.
when are you going ? and post the videos of the tour
I dream to do such a trip
I get crap from seasoned riders over my 250L Rally. They seem to think ya need a BMW 1200. This is more proof. At 65 it's easy to handle. It's easy to lower if ya want. Parts are everywhere. Love mine.
I think Honda and other motorcycle companies should make 600cc bikes for short people. I drove a Honda 250 Rebel from AZ to Yellowstone , Wyoming and back and it was fun but, the elevation made me go to 45mph and couldn't go faster than 55mph sometimes. I know it's a small commuter bike and that's why I bought it but, I like the size and weight just needs more power.In AZ I can get it to 85 and to me thats fast enough becuase really no highways in America have over 75mph limit. I have owned a Honda CBR 600 but when you make emergency stops 600pounds is hard to manage and especially when your 5'4. so i think they should make bikes like this model or a Grom with a 450 or 600cc engine with these smaller seat heights. awesome video by the way.
I have just bought a crf250l and am prepping it for fun but i wondered what she does for fuel on longer distances or where she dosnt know where the pumps are ..as your looking at only 100miles max on a tank?
Good on ya
What is the windshield you are using? I need one of those
Sorry , i really admire what you are doing. I forget to write that I am from Turkey and we would join your ride while you are passing from Europe to Asia over Bosphorus Bridge.👏

is it a stock factory bike or have you done any mods to the engine or gears?
One good tip change your gear leaver to a folding one as my friend fell off on his crf and it snap off the gear sharf.not good.and not easy to fix.
Best of Luck :D

I used to rent this bike in Thailand, it's pretty cheap over there, around 20$ a day. She's right, it's a great dual sport, you can go off road without a problem. The only issue for me was horse power. It's really, really weak, you push the throttle and it has little power. It's a pity that Honda doesn't produce a 450 cc bike of the same kind. The 450 CFR (no "L") is a dirt bike, and it can't be used on the streets for long distances.

FERNANDO her bike is a dual sport, the CB 500 X is a great bike, but maybe 80/20, I don't think you can do much off road with it. For her trip I would have probability gotten a 1190 KTM. If you stay away from Asia or Maybe Africa you're fine, but in certain SE Asian countries roads are really bad, and you need a dual sport.
I hardly ever met anyone, who picked her bike so wisely. God luck, Steph. I ride a KLX250 all around Europe and I know, that the Honda will be a good and reliable ride for you. Have fun! PS: That's an interesting rack up there in the front of the bike. What is it...?

hii stepth i really want to do what you do. but i have got some question and need some tips from you, i hope you could help me out. the 1st one will be could i get a sponsorship from the motor company like honda, 2.how could you cross border with the bike and what paper work you need for the bike to get it cross. 3 the budget that you spent each day on fuel and food. thank you steph, btw i will be start my journey from indonesia and i want to go all the way to turkey
Pakistan best place to visit,, beatiful sites
Good for you. Are you skipping Alaska? Don't, it's amazing.
Ma'am is this bike comfortable for long ride in one go, like 300km in 1 go without breaking.
😻😿 I share her passion and reasoning for choosing tbid bike. So capable. So underrated. Does anyone make hard shell panniers for this ? (PS: Shame you had to skip Pakistan then 😿, maybe next time)
