- Hey guys so i went to the Around the Bend Rally with my crf300l Rally which i'm glad i did. Very tough terrain in the coming days. I would've like the crf450rl there too but wasn't sure on fuel situation. Day 1 wasn't bad with a completely stock bike but definitely would be nice when in the park because it's so rough in sections. Big Bend National Park was really cool just make sure to bring a lot of water and know your fuel levels and where to stop for fuel!
Nice job! I was in your group...had fun
3 of our riders went down in that spot
Great vid! I know BBNP well. I'll go with you to the rally next year.
It was loads of fun! I'm glad I didn't bring the T7 the first time. Old Ore road was a beating with the stock suspension on the 300L and Black Gap would be very sketchy on the cliff edge on the ascent(headed north). Next time I may bring the 450 and the tenere. For sure need to plan some trips like that and have a few of us go.
correction: i think i was in your group at the beginning....we got separated...the pan american came up a few minutes after us.....I was on a T7...seems like you had the right bike for the job....How did you like the 300?
Really enjoyed it! Wish I had brought the 450 but I didn’t want to deal with fuel anxiety. Also glad I didn’t bring my t7 for my first trip there. I may next time but I know what to expect now. The first day I just met up with the other 300L guy and we thankfully were really close to same skill level so we were moving pretty good. We may have followed y’all for a little bit at first
How's the power and handling in the sand and gravel on the 300L?
Honestly it had enough. You’re not breaking the tire loose with a full throttle in 2nd gear or higher but it will with loose rocks. It’s enough to tractor through anything though
