The CRF250L Owners thread

In the picture taken from the rear, there is something at the far right on that rack that I'm trying to figure out what it is/purpose. I have the KTM mirrors on my bike, and love them. Did the skid plate come with all those holes, or did you lighten it? I'll bet shipping the rack would be $$$$$$$$$.

You mean the galvanised post thats in the ground

Just noticed that CRFsonly has the 305 big bore kit listed!

I will be ordering one tomorrow, has anybody fitted one yet?

Camera made it look like it was part of the rack in that picture, but you are right in looking at the other pic.......D'oh!

I considered it, but not liking having to use high octane gas. Ramz did one: http://www.rickramsey.net/CRF250Lbigbore.htm

Like I said, have another closer look, it's a galvanised post in the ground 6 feet at the front of the bike

Yup, I'm an idyut.

Hahahah, if I was honest, I would have said I did the same thing, but my pride would be hurt so I won't

That bits ok I only use Hi octane.

Ed, i was not directing that to you.

And still people moan.

Exactly. Especially when the cost of doing that is about the same as the basic (Z series) YSS shock...and the Cogent Dynamics spokesperson is not even sure about the SHOWA OEM design.

We were talking about the rear shock - specifically, rebuilding it with different components, unknown quantity in terms of results, and at a cost that is about the same as buying a good YSS shock.
The rest, i have probably spent more than most on modifying the bike.

CAT: Absolutely no offense taken. YSS deserves a good look for sure. However, VERY little effort was required to make a BIG improvement on the supposedly unrebuildable KLR shock..sadly, doing anything to the stock CRF shock so far seems unlikely.

good morning!!!!

Nice area to be able to ride!

The reply to my inquiry to Hagon said, "Unfortunately, we do not have a listing for you bike". Too bad, I did mention the dealers were selling them out all over the world, also.

Just got my Manrack and I am looking for tail bag, which Wolfman is this?

I crossed my first rivers ever with a motorcycle. Pretty intense as you don't know which bump is coming next!

>"Just got my Manrack and I am looking for tail bag, which Wolfman is this? "

Looks like a 'Peak' Tailbag. I have one of those on my WR250R.
IMHO: great bag.

http://wolfmanluggage.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&product_id=85 largest tail bag they offer with the easiest mounting system. remove the clips and cinch down through existing loops on man rack or their rear rack! IMHO(p.s.) Zone you beat me to the punch!

If the stream isn't running very strong, you can see to the bottom. Faster running, not so much. You can always find a downed branch, and poke around first. Best way is to let the other guy/gal go first. Known crossings are one thing, never been there before, a different story. Be ready to hit the kill switch before it goes under, piston doesn't like compressing water.............

Here are some pictures of my Break in ride
