Love this video, I have a 300LS on deposit, maybe next month!!!. Love this channel, take more adventures on this beautiful bike and show it off more, tell us how you love it and the transition from the Honda 125 trail. Thank you!!!
I love watching your videos, they show the scenery over there so nicely. Always grateful to you for sharing. On the whole your videos combine the stuff I really enjoy so I'm pleased when I see the latest video go up :)
Kudos to see you pushing yourself through more difficult riding adventures, I appreciate your candidness in your riding ability an expressing the pucker factor you are experiencing at times during your ride. Ironically I was close to this area a few days ago doing single track in the Kelly Canyon Trails area on my Sherco 2T, I also have the Honda 300L for riding such as you are enjoying. A pointer to consider practicing and incorporate into your riding style, when you are in those loose rocks and rutted areas steep or not, stand on the pegs 80-90% of the time, it will be a game changer and confidence booster for you successfully getting through these sections with very little to no stress as you develop this technique.
Yep, I don’t ride 80 mph on my Road King either. Ohhh, boy, it will sure do 80, almost effortlessly; but, I will leave that to the more fearless. I’m an old retired vet and have an old mantra floating around inside, “the old don’t ride reckless, the reckless don’t ride old”, or something like that.
I bought the guards for the standard 300L from Outback MotorTek. They fit fine...although be aware that it will cause your front fender to rub on the cross bar. I solved this problem by putting two small washers on the back bolts of the fender. If you watch my accessories video, I talk about this: ua-cam.com/video/Z2JiP6yQLHg/v-deo.htmlsi=s2V1vdTEjFUaTao7&t=821

You need to ALWAYS USE the front brake when going downhill. The rear brake only keeps the back end from coming around. You hold onto the front brake just enough that it doesn’t take weight off the rear wheel but enough to keep it slow down. You just need some more saddle time. The bike is way more capable than you think.
Indeed...Definitely still a novice here. I've gotten into trouble a few times with too much front brake on sketchy descents so have been consistently nervous since. You are absoltely right though. Back brake alone for steep downhills is not the way.

You have so much better places to ride than I do. I would so love to tag along on my TW 200 with you.
Me too!
Thanks for the ride dude
I also purchased a 2023 ls love it got about 800 miles on it now.
I don't go 80 on my Harley. Except when I rode the interstate with Adam Sandavals great American convoy.

What is the cable flopping around in front of the gauge cluster? Great video!
It’s the front brake cable! It’s a bit annoying, but I don’t even notice it anymore.
@@On2Feet Interesting! Yeah seems like that would get on my nerves. Lol! Thanks again for the vidoes
Can you post a link for the crash guards? I can only find them for 2023 Honda CRF 300 L. Would those work for LS? Thanks.

I live in Northern Arizona in Flagstaff (2100 meters elevation). Much different than the southern deserts near Phoenix and Tucson.
Thank you !!
Mormon Mountain , next Mormon Lake?
