- Ever since starting the quest for the perfect bike for Alexis I have had my eyes on the CRF250F, the successor to the legendary CRF230F. Updated with fuel injection and modern styling, add a few accessories and BOOM you have an ultra reliable Dual Sport that you can ride to the trails and cruise around on back roads.
This Honda has been a blast so far and I think it is slept on by many..

Next week.. why i sold the CRF250F 😁
😳
😅
Yup😂😂
It’s a great beginners bike but most will grow out of it.
I rode a 250F for a day a couple years ago, loved it! I'm only 5'7 so it fits me perfectly. Interested to see how you guys like it. Excellent addition for this channel.
These type bikes are a pretty good package. I have the kawi klx230. Air cooled, six speed, road legal, fuel injected, geared good for the trails (better than some others), just a perfect go anywhere, low maintenance machine.
We have had a CRF250F now for 2 years. Sweet bike, love it. Starts right up, good ergos, easy to move around on it, plenty of power to have fun too! I also love how quiet it is. Not as much power as an older XR250, but man, it's hard to beat the magic button and FI! I think you'll have this one for a while. Oh and it sips fuel too. Great spare buddy bike (as you already know).
I own a XR 250 and 400 amazing bikes x
I recommend the plastic small mirrors that attach to the bark busters one you have the metal rap around on. They fold in for off-road and can spin the mirror when on road to get the right tilt on mirror. That’s what I used on my now street modified Wr250f that has a lot of goodies done to it. Love that bike for off road ripping . I have the 250l ,and a street bike atm, but needed something to scratch the itch I get from racing motocross for over a decade. The 250l couldn’t handle it all. It my mini adventure bike now the very modified 250l. Love them all.
So I just finished watching this the next morning and saw the end. Appreciate you Tanner!
funny you posted this...I just went singletrack riding on a CRF230F yesterday, and had a BLAST. I'm sold.
Gotta love the air-cooled Honda XR. This iteration the CRF250F is almost perfect. Almost.
If only Honda offered this in a street-legal version.
I’m pumped that you’re into the trail bikes. I have a 2022 KLX 300R and it’s been good to me so far. My first choice was the 2022 CRF 250F, but the outlook wasn’t looking good. Hondas are hard to get. Glad you’re loving the new bike 🙌🔥
those bikes are all over marketplace
You didn't go wrong - I got my father turned on to diet biking and we found him a KLX300R! Gonna buy him a Power Commander, FMF 4.1 full exhaust, and the KDX intake with twin air racing filter, trail tech fan kit, 1.6-1.8 bar radiator cap, and beefed up radiator hoses for cooling here after Christmas too...sweet machine, brother! He keeps up with my TM Racing EN300ES 2 stroke with stage 3 engine package, and Honda CRF450R (Built into an RX) with stage 2 engine, and still saving up for a few more upgrades...just need to save for A-kit suspension and FCP Engine mounts and it'll be finished,and it's literally molded to ride ANYWHERE! ...The Kawasaki KLX300R PERFORMS AMAZINGLY beside my bikes that I've spent quadruple+ the amount on!
Can't wait to see and ride Dad's machine with those parts...after second gear the KLX300R WILL PUT OUT!!!
Installed a Yoshimura exhaust and it woke up my 250F. Only downside is it’s definitely not quiet anymore. Great bike!!
I have a 2019 CRF230F. Rear drum brake. Paid 4250 OTD. Put a jet kit on, tusk filter and removed baffle. 43 yrs old 5’8”. Perfect f-ing trail bike
My 250F is the new goto bike. It is really good at everything. You love it.
Fun bikes, they just started selling them where I live in Mexico. I thought about getting one but didn't want to have to buy and add all the road legal stuff!
I dual sport the KLX230. Very similar specs to this bike. Had a 450l before it.
Hell yeah man, I have the exact same bike and love it, if I ever get around to getting it street legal my drz400 will be up for sale pronto
That moose Allen key set, now that is a sweet little tool.😉✌️🤙👋👋
I've also got a 2021. Been hitting up NC/TN mountain single track. Does great but the stock suspension is not that great. I will be upgrading the suspension this winter.
I just bought the kids a 2022 crf250f and it has been the best bike ever. Injection and awesome
I have a 2022 KLX 230r I love it it’s just heavy and I’m only 14 but I can still pick it up and stuff
Try a 200 2 stroke, much lighter, can’t beat them in the tight stuff either.
@@deborahchesser7375 my dad said I’m not aloud to buy a 2 stroke because he would have to rebuild it every month idk and I have always had 4 strokes
@@justcake4178 your dad is right. Two strokes take more maintenance. Both a great tho.
I would get on the steroids now. You may not be able to scratch your back but you’ll be able to throw the bike across the yard
@@domforte2966 no no. Lol.
I think thats the bike for you. I had a ktm 350 exc didn't enjoy that bike either. Now im on a fully uncorked klx 300 not perfect but its what I need. I also had a 2016beta 500rs dualsport that was actually closer to a unicorn bike still wouldn't recommend it though.thanks for the videos 😊👍
I bought a slightly used 250F from my nephew. I love it! It is a fantastic little trail bike. I’m short, so the 34.7” seat height, though it might sound a little high, is great for me. That Baja headlight looks awesome. I’m not necessarily looking to make mine street legal, but it would be nice to have if I ever get caught out in the failing light. Might be looking into one.
Sounds low compared to most hard enduro and mx bikes with 39+ inch seat height like my wr250f that has since been made street legal. It’s even a bit lower than my heavy pretty heavily modified Crf250l. Would make a fine dual sport in some states that would allow it. Those types of Honda engines are so proven reliable.
how tall are you?
@@user-rb3wb5rc5o I’m 5’6” with a 28” inseam.
Hell yea super stoked to see a 250f on the channel! I’ve been on the fence either this bike or a YZ125X. The only reason I haven’t decided yet is because the Weight of the 250f.
I don’t notice the weight at all when I’m riding it
Actually my favourite Honda for trails, 250Rx is a motocrosser still
I ride a GasGas EX250F. I love my bike!
You really are picking up all of my dream bikes.
Save some for me!
Subbed recently been watching all your content, getting back into riding all my kids are grown 52 but still a teen at heart. Really enjoying this bike, i did buy new as couldn't find any used in northern Michigan. P.S. i live right in the woods the trails are all around me.
Welcome! That's awesome to hear, never told old to have some fun and the 250F is made for that. Michigan has some great riding areas, lucky you!
Such a good playbike
Fuck yes! I tried to go buy one last weekend but didn’t work out. That’s my next bike to buy and there’s not many good videos on UA-cam about the bike! Hoping you make a lot of content with it!
I took my 230F out yesterday cause my 300XCW and 350FX were both having issues. I dunno... its ok, but I definitely don't miss it! Maybe the new 250 is a lot better? tbf, I got used to the power after a while and had a bunch of fun, main issue is the brakes are absolute trash
What are your thoughts on this vs the older 250x model
Basically a modern Xr. I dig it.
Yes
I just bought the Baja designs headlight and the tusk street legal kit, what did you do to tie the tail light into the headlights switch
I bought this bike with high hopes but you know I kinda went too hard… so I wanted the ultimate drill/woods/harescramble bike (absolutely hate the idea of drilling standing on a 12k ktm450….). Race tech fork springs set for motocross racing (not bad held up decent), race tech custom shock (trash blew up 3 times and race tech bailed on me) so stock rear shock (not bad at all but does bottom hard), yoshi pipe excellent sound and slight performance increase, moose inserts, increased ground clearance, triple clamp upgrade with pro tapers, all in all bike was amazing but forks bent from a jump, it was very heavy, seat was very uncomfortable after 15-20 min riding, limited aftermarket parts for upgrading but Brazil has the works, hmm I guess other than those little things it held up awesome for a 24hr race in Alabama I used it on. Honestly gpx has the perfected version but still carb. Ktm frame with xr250r engine. If it was fuel injection it would sell like crazy. Light weight air cooled 250r motor with wp air fork suspension so you can go from woods to motocross effortlessly and ktm steel frame for comfort ergos and lighter weight and bam the perfect bike. Check out the FSE250E from gpx they’re getting close to the perfect everything bike.
It's like Mystery Tackle Box for motorcycles.
Ktm day! Ktm forever! I passed a Honda kid he had to rev his engine as I fly by him, I laugh my ass off.
Gotta deal with the ktm frame rust tho
@@orangekilla3374 lol, you can protect any frame from rust. Harley Davidson yeah those rust period. Honda becomes oxidized eventually.
Hay I got that same kit for my ktm how do I get rid of that big switch and still get power to everything and not kill my battery thinks
I got a 2015 crf250x great all round bike.
can't be that great on the road . does it even have a cush drive? it's basically an off road bike with some lights, I nearly got rid of my xr250r for the 250x until I realised how off road focused the 250x was. its closer to the crf250r and that's a motor-x bike. and second thing the the version of the crf250x with all the lights and indicators. (and rim locks) never liked them on the road. in the UK was near the same price as a KTM 690 Enduro R
You are correct it's a offroad bike, with lights. Can be made road legal but not ideal.
My sister has one and its a good bike. Seat is like sitting on 2x4 though 😂 Its too bad oregon doesn't let you make any dirtbike into a street legal bike. I ride the crf230l and its a good do it all bike.
The Crf250f is a hella good bike but I think u shoulda gotten the Klx300r. I wish there were more videos on the klx 😭
Was wandering if you have heard of Laura’s Adv camp and ride near Danville OH awesome time figured you might enjoy?
I've been trying to get my wife to buy one of these!
Hi, how does this compare to the 250l?
Oh boy... that bike had some real questionable work. Reminds me of my youth😂.
Can't remember who I heard it from but years and years ago someone said "people never have time to do it right, but ALWAYS find time to do it over"
this guy is like me with phones/computers. i buy it, justify the purchase, then find sum better and replace just to buy sum similar within another month🤣gotta love it tho
As a note, it's pronounced Cross-Trainer. It's a semi-hybrid between trials bike and enduro bike, thus a 'cross' trainer, as you're training across trials and enduro/trail riding.
I’m confused. Lol
I thought the Honda CrF 250 was a water cooled mx bike. I guess I gotta catch up with the times.
I feel like every other time I open youtube i find myself saying "oh no Tanner not another one" lol
How does this compare to the 300l? Does it have a better suspension for off-road?
Suspension on both leaves a lot to be desired. The 250f benefits mostly from being substantially lighter. Heck of a tradeoff having to tow it, though.
Talk about a tease man 😂
*Congrats to BarnStangz for exposing my poor financial decisions😂
Closest to guess what I paid for the 250F gets the Alpinestars polo!.. (size XL)
$1700
$1450
$2250
3500
3100
I have a 2022 klx 300
Holy shit dude your from ohio!!! Let’s ride sometime brotha! Thats all i do. Just looped the grom last night lol congrats on the bike man
Dude that wiring was some straight up crackhead shit 😂🤣🤣 I have wired plenty of bikes and always use solder and heat shrink.
Right?😂😂 I have started using the heat shrink connectors with the solder built in and they are damn convenient.
I bet that the previous owner didn’t wash it because he was afraid it would mess up the wiring.
You are probably right😂
Starting to feel like we share a brain when it comes to bike choices and things we want to try. 😂
Not going to lie you had me hooked on the 250f. Until I went and sat on one today. Compared to the KLX300R it's a little donkey. I understand you can do the lift kit and all that. But why when you can buy the 300r and get so much more of a bike without upgrades. This bike is at best a beginner bike. You represent this bike like it's super capable. It's not much more than a farm bike. I've been riding the Brozz for 3 years now and it definitely beats the 250f with size/ergonomics/cockpit. Only thing the Brozz lacks is power. 9,500 miles on the Chinese clapper. Ready to move on but the 250F is a downgrade for the price.
yo! ive got almost 600hours on my 2020!!! love it! i put mine thru hell an back sweet bike at a even better price. i should do a video on mine lol
600 hours!!! Holy moly!! That's awesome! How often do you change the oil?
@@usmc03 thanks for the response!! Depends how hard a ride if I'm riding hard and best on the machine about every 10hrs but most of the time 10-15. 13back tires 3 fronts!!
@@averykienbaum2904 Wow. That's impressive!!! Have you had any problems with it? Did you ever do the valves or anything like that?
@@usmc03 adjusted valves one time at like 150hrs did rear bearing at 500 one blew out. Then ran into a bunch of issues when a sxs tried too kill me lol. Bent rear wheel and frame bent that all back. Rear spokes started breaking so had too rebuild that had a shop do it. Snow trying too install a little snow bike kit on it. Gonna be under powered but eh too heck with it
@@averykienbaum2904 lol. Sounds like an adventure!! Be safe out there my friend. I got one of these for my wife, it's got 14 hours on it, and I was just wondering if they are as reliable as the good ol 230f's.
Before: "We've been wanting this to buy a long time ago - Husky and KTM - even though they lack . . . "
After: "why we sold our Husky and KTM - because they lack . . . "
😲😲😲
that youtube content churn lifestyle
Check your coolant levels.
And this is why I only buy stock bikes!
Here in Brazil we call the 230 and the 250f the queens of trails.. cuz is cheap and go wherever the ktms and biger brands go hahahaha Every rider either owns one or had one of this bikes
Hey man anyway you could list the parts used to make it street legal? I was thinking about doing the exact same thing. Also in Ohio
It’s listed in the description!
@@AdventureDaily damn thats embarrassing lol thanks. I should've checked there first
I thought about buying one, hows it shift? Ive heard tales of false neutrals
Wait why did you get rid of the 300l then?
It’s cheaper and makes a way better trail bike. Not much of a comparison honestly, the 300L will be way better on the road obviously but the 250F is significantly better off-road.
@@AdventureDaily Interesting. I am picking up a 300l next month. I had a 230 and I used to ride my buddies 250. I hope you got a good deal because down here 250s are still 5500 on average. I hope the extra weight of the 300 isn't too noticeable on trails. I'm ony 155lbs and at 5'9 so I feel like the suspension would probably be fine for me. I think you said you were pretty tall so that would make sense.
@@traversschultz1316 I bought a '21 300L. No regrets at all
@@AdventureDaily wow, so it's cheaper AND it cost less? Is it more affordable and priced better, too?
What about after you buy the trailer and headlight?
👍
That wiring job is comically close to how KTM wires their bikes from the factory and then charges TOP dollar for them.
Omg it's a vaccine bike, I'm in love and i don't know it's real bike and what to believe!
Tanner: "I love Honda fuel injection"
Also Tanner: "I hate the 450L flame out"
Just sayin hahaha
Lol Honda should sponsor you ima die hard fan of Honda but they useless like that and that crf is like a new updated xr250r but the XR is faster do they sell the 250f in the UK
What is this? Where do they come from? lol, hilarious
2200
I mean look at it, and going slow everywhere isn’t for everyone
I'm going to find a xr600. I like big thumpers
All that wiring hahaha
Little kids bike.. 🤪
Just order a new wiring kit…
I'm turning my misses into your misses 😅🤣she wants to ride I don't know whether it's to impress me or take a interest in my hobbies but ima bight the bullet and get her a crf 110 only Honda for us my xrs are bombproof
Bro’s gonna sell it after 13 days😭
ya. reliable. but heavy as f
$40 worth of stuff for $60. You sold out Tanner. Back in the day you would have called BS on that price.
The Alpinestars polo alone is listed for $50 on multiple websites, granted all this stuff is discounted and they have to make a profit at the end of the day, it’s business.
I can’t watch it
Was it that bad??
Lol it wasn’t bad it said stream unavailable non of your content is bad brother
Stop crying dude. When you buy used, you know it's a risk you're taking. You shouldn't have texted him. He d9id what he wanted to his bike at the time.
GIF is correct because it is not pronounced Jraffic.
Great bike till you start doing extended rides in the slow stuff. BTW, you better marry that girl ASAP, or else you're going to be regretting it for the rest of your life.
Horrible ending to a decent video. How ya gonna leave people hanging like that for an ad?
It’s already up just click on the next video lol.
Take a moment? That was like a 4 min add. Definitely no sub.
holy jesus....what is that?!? .... HHHWHAT THE F*** IS THAT?
Next episode: shouldn't have brought this bike! (It's slow)
You're so full of it... buy this bike, don't buy this bike, buy this bike again 🤣
The suspension is weak, and it is pregnant.
Just like that 300r you had haha! It's all a trade off, good cheap reliable fun for me.
@@AdventureDaily when are we riding again???!!! I’ll grovel and buy lunch or whatever it takes!
