Is The CRF250 Rally the Perfect Motorcycle For Adventure?

The perfect motorcycle for adventure is a bit of a unicorn, but i honestly wonder if it's been under our noses for the last 7 years or so. The CRF250L and CRF 250 Rally motorcycles have some perfect qualities for adventure. Cheap, reliable and flexible in use...Just ask Itchy boots or Austin Vince.

In this vid, we try to convince you that the CRF 250 Rally ad L are the perfect motorcycle for adventure...i'm sure the argument will be settled after this video! (as if...)

Well done lad.. great vid and info.. :)

Great video again Mark. I almost sold my CRF250 Rally recently for reasons I won't bore you with. Suffice to say I still have it and I'm glad that I do. This video is a reminder to the likes of me and hopefully an eye-opener to others that the CRF250's really do make for awesome ADV bikes. Genuine real-world usability for anyone looking for a fun, cheap, reliable and rugged bike. I think your bike might just be a little more powerful than mine looking at those stickers :). Keep up the great work!

I keep going back and forward between a 300 Rally and a Yamaha T7. Your points are so true and think I'm swaying back to the rally ha

Preaching to the choir here haha. Had a “Smaller” 700 GS, then a small dirt bike, this is the perfect middle ground for me. People tell me it’s underpowered, I consider that a bonus of less chance of me being stupid on the road. I’ve found my unicorn! Production quality looks to have improved with this video by the way looking awesome. Ride safe chaps!

I agree with you and I don’t even have a Rally, but I rode the XR’s for years & they were great. Well done. Thanks

Love my 250 rally can’t see me changing up to a 300 haven’t seen a good enough revue to make me change up to warrant it great channel keep it up

The CRF250/300L are just that ... perfect adventure bikes. Another Great video 👌

No bike is 'the perfect adventure bike'. That said, the CRF250L comes really close in my opinion. It does it all, gets you where you want without too much hassle and fuel and does not cost you your back when you need to pick it up a lot of times on long runs. Sold my big adv bike (on which I had a lot of adventures before) and never looked back. Note; I did upgrade the saddle and springs for comfort. Thanks for another awesome vid!

Got myself a 250 Rally last week and already in love. Surprised how good it was off road but even more surprised at how nice it was to ride 100 miles home, down motorway and over Woodhead pass in the peaks. Will cruise at 70 all day long just as happily as it chugged around an abandoned quarry.
My mate somehow just got hold of a 300 Rally after seeing how fun it is and my Dad’s got a 300L, can’t wait for more adventure.

Ive had my 2019 Rally for a year now. Im a girl, Im still getting comfortable with it, I love it!... but very very soon I will be going on an adventure in it!

[joaodanunciacaonunes]

Thanks to you guys I’ve got one of these since last March. All you said it’s true. As a beginner I’m very pleased and comfortable with it. Keep the good work! Cheers

Super well done steak covered in A1 sauce is perfect because that's the way I like it. You can serve it with any side dish you like and you should be happy with that.

[michaelsupple]

Love your video! I just sold a 2019 KTM 690 Enduro R and replaced it with a new crf300l. I couldn't be happier!

[kimkelberg]

You are so right, the Wind in the face is the same :-) enjoy the trusty mule

Best mod Imo for this bike(250l) is a fmf q4 exhaust with the powerbomb. Adds around 4 hp and more low end torque. Also has a more louder and bad ass sound than the stock can.

I have this Motorcyrcle in Colombia South America. It's Perfect. Greetings

[georgesweaton]

On woodsman adventures he bought new crf300l tested top speed 75mph my 250 rally with yoshi exhaust 89 mph so 300 not so great as they say at everthing

[danielbeckham]

Thanks for the video. Have had a 300 Rally on order since April. ETA is now September and I keep considering other bikes but keep coming back round to the Rally. It’s my first bike so everything you say makes it the perfect choice for a beginner too.

[infernalcontraptions]

As the owner of a 2014 Defender and now a CRF300 Rally, I don’t need much convincing. Just need to get those stickers to make it faster 😉👍🏻

[piqueblinder]

Ive got the 250L that i use on the TET around wiltshire and its amazing....13/45 gearing and nothing has stopped me yet...great bike.
