Took a quick video of my 2023 Silverado 1500 Trailboss with the LZ0 Duramax 6.5’ bed. I installed the Auto Spring Kits add-a-leaf and it seems to be carrying the dump trailer nicely. The trailer is a 2024 N&N 7x14 14k lbs galzinized dump trailer. Please note: Tuff Country markets their add a leaf (#81350) for 1999-2024. It does not fit newer body style Silverados.

Forest Roads to Pavement: CRF300l in the Green Mountain National Forest
Просмотров 5912 года назад
Cruising one of many forest roads in the Green Mountain National Forest. I also include quite a bit of road riding in this video so you can reference performance and RPMs with the 45T sprocket. All in all, I love the 45T, but you will see me reach for an extra gear occasionally while on the road! Dunlop D606 on the rear, Pirelli MT16 on the front.
CRF300l Updates and General Talk

Thought I’d make a video while taking a break today in the Green Mountain National Forest. I show you the kickstand mod a little closer, and give my two cents regarding the CRF300l and tall riders (6’ ). Loving the K-tech suspension, but more tuning on that to come. Enjoy! @ 2:27 - I played with the rebound and preload, not compression (on the rear shock)

Apologies for the camera angle. Still trying to figure out the new helmet mount. I want to give you an update on a kick stand modification as well as suspension, and take you on a leisurely ride through the woods. Enjoy. Please note that I am referring to K-Tech USA.

Not too loud too cause trouble but loud enough to make you smile
That’s how I feel!
What harness did you get from TST for the running mate? 3-2?
I've been looking for a lz0 in that blue with the longer bed. There's not many of them out there, apparently.
Had to order this one. Will be selling closer to fall!
@@vermontnpk1748 Roughly how much did the bed cover cost?
@@duramarks ~3k
Are you sure you Are in Michigan.
Michigan, Vermont, yes.
@@vermontnpk1748 wow. I didn't know that Until now. I live in Michigan. Not Michigan Vermont
I'll take Michigan u.p any day..jussayin
@@curtiscollins2174 not me. I go to. Cadillac. It is a good Place to ride
@@curtiscollins2174 you are better off going to boon to ride. I am Only two hours and three minutes away from boon
Keep in mind the LZO can only achieve 13’000 lbs of towing capacity with the max tow package!
It's really going to squat without the 500 pounds of snow in the back of the trailer. Shouldn't of lifted the front end.
Very clean! Is that a woody bio-degradable MX stand? Sweet!
your stock handlebars are the same width as kick stand cut a inch or so off of it and cut an weld it into your kick stand
Did you install ktech fork kit or have someone install it for you?
Starting to get upgrades for mine. Trying to patiently wait for the race tech suspension package through solo racer but still not taking new orders…😢 Exhaust coming this week with Pro Tapers, foot pegs, and a few other odds and ends. Need to order DNA filter and ECU tuner or box. Haven’t decided. What part of VT are you in again? Looking forward to riding soon.
Hey what size is ur pireli mt16 And the d606 did u go 120 90 18 or the 130 90 18
can you share the URL of the sprocket ?
If you look in the manual it tells how to adjust the shift light. Stock is 8k, I moved mine up to 10k
Can you do an Updated video on the Suspension does it got springs in both forks?
You say 2in higher. But is that ground clearance or seat height. I kept hitting rocks and stumps with my foot pegs so need more hight :)
Got a link for those mirrors?
I like the blinkers.
i received a 606 and MT21 from amazon yesterday. I decided to return the MT21 and get a MT16 based on your review here. it cost me 15 bucks to return it, but i'd rather spend 15 bucks than low side it again :)
Looks like fun In your area wish I could ride with you.
Appreciate your kickstand and fanny pack mods!
You're video came at the right time for me. I have been struggling to pick tires, and I have had so many suggestions for the 606, and I guess that's settled now, so thanks. Gonna go with that front tire as well, as Ive primarily bought this bike for dirt road and trail. I really like the look of the tail tidy and the low mirror, but I'm confused about not having a license plate. Do you not need to run one in Vermont? Subscribed and look forward to your content.
I’ve have one. And it’s a work in progress. It can be fixed. I like it. I’ve done a lot of mods. But I laughed when you mentioned the kickstand. How the Fuck did Honda screw up the kickstand so badly. Lol.
I just got my k tech spring just wondering what's the proper air gap for the fork
The 606 on front are terrible slippery in the trail when wet. I took my front 606 off and sold it again and replaced with the pirelli mt21. Rear 606 works well and long life
According to their website this bike was designed for their global customer who is 5'6"- 125lbs.- size 6 shoe.
Does this K Tech shock have an aluminum body or is it steel like the stock ? Thanks
According to their website, this was designed for their global market rider. They have beginner skills, and are 5'6" - 125lbs weight- size 6 shoe. Honda sells 20 times plus, more motorcycles overall in Asia and Central America than in the US. US is no longer a major customer. Problem is this bike has been selling really well in a market it is not designed for. Aftermarket companies are making money that should be going to Honda. Honda messed up on that decision. But it is a drop in the bucket for them overall so I don't think they really care . They did not even bother to put the LED lights on this model for the US like they do for other countries.
I wasn’t interested in the 450 due to all the service that it requires. I think swapping the battery and the exhaust is your two biggest weight savers.
Gotta love these honda, made tons of trail videos on my channel. Nice content, keep up the good work!
I’m 69, and enjoying my light, new bike very much. Still love to take the Africa Twin out for the longer jaunts. Both off road marvels, but that AT is a mother to pick up. Not really sure I can still do it.
Hey, thanks so much for taking us along with you! Good to know what you think about your suspension mod in particular, but your other mods as well! Cool idea with a hockey puck. Whatever works, right?! And I was just able to make decent deal on a Rally, so thanks so much for your help on evaluating cost! Take care and keep the awesome videos coming!! Really appreciate it!
I am 65 years old and very experienced! The bike is perfect for me! I know my limitations! Not trying to race Ricky Carmichael!
thanks good video. still waiting for mine, I ordered the same tires you have so feel good that you like them, also hope to be getting the 45 tooth rear sprocket. I getting better handle bars and hand guards as well and going with a heavy duty plastic bash plate and rear tack. Still deciding on a rear box, for tools and extra gas. Will be using the bike for 90% off road. Have the KTM 390 Adventure for more road. and a DR650 with a 20 liter gas tank for the long gravel and gnarly dirt roads rides. when off road I ride at a slower pace so will see about the suspension.
I recommend the D-Sport Rear and the Golden Tyre GT 216. Definitely leans towards off-road rather than the street but I have been very happy with this setup.
Love and want to get the Rally, but just got an out the door price of just over $8200. Does that sound right to you when MSRP is so much lower? Thanks and love your videos! Keep'em coming please!
Appreciate the feedback! Gosh, seems kind of high to me but I know every state is different. I paid around $6200 out the door here in Vermont. That’s for tax, title, registration, dealer fees.
@@vermontnpk1748 OMG! First off, thank you for such a quick and awesome response! And secondly, that price is just what I'm looking for and it helps immensely to know some dealers are not gouging beyond belief... Other folks had been running into similar prices to what I was getting unfortunately... Thanks again, I'll look elsewhere!!
I just love that new honda 300cc motorcycle it's awesome cool
That bike stand is Dope
I ordered the Race Tech Hi-Performance Fork Spring Kit and gold valve setup from crf's only and the k-tech rear spring for my rally. I'm liking the setup so far. Going to try the sprocket next with tires. great video
Nice! What made you go with that combo? How long did it take for you to receive your k-tech? I’ve been waiting nearly two months. I’m ready to cancel and go with racetech
I ordered March 14 and they shipped on the 16th. Watched a few reviews and figured I would give a try. I'm happy that I did. The bike sits about an 1.5in taller while on the seat. I'm able to set rear sag now.
Where did you order the rear sprocket from?
Rocky Mountain
That front tire is DOT certified? That thing looks sticky! I wonder how they are in the curves on the road? I want to install those blinkers on my Rally , but I’m not going to eliminate the stock blinkers, so I’m wondering if I need the same wiring harness that you used or if there is a different one for that...
Tire are in fact DOT certified! I love them. Haven’t noticed any negatives in the turns, however I have only put about 50 miles on them so far. You will probably need to splice into the stock blinker harness to run both. It will be really easy, but you will still need the TST running mate if you want the new blinkers to still have a running light. The tusk blinkers are only two wire. Running lights require a three wire. Cheers!
Sorry to correct you, but in 6th gear doing 60mph , rpm is 6,000. 6th gear at 50mph is 5,000 rpm and so on. I find it hard to believe doing 65-70 mph you are doing only 6,500 rpm with a 45 tooth. On stock I believe it yes. I've done 80 mph on highway only a short distance of course don't like the very high revs at 8,000 rpm for too long. I like this bike more at 60-70 mph 6k to 7k rpms. I also want to gear up just 42 tooth as many say that makes a difference and don't lose much top speed. I use it 50/50 . For you it makes sense to keep 45 tooth mainly for dirt use minimal road. I also have mt21 and dsport set up and don't feel difference In any loss of power or lagging do to the tire change. That's just me though.
I may be off by 1000 RPM, tops. Definitely not more than that. POV videos coming. With the larger tire diameter, it really doesn’t create that drastic of a change. Haven’t put any more miles on since this video, but I will this coming week. If I am in fact right, I’m calling you out! Cheers!
@@vermontnpk1748 sounds good.
I have the same setup as you. Accept I run 13 42. My speedo is 10mph off . I run around 6500 at 55 . 7500 at 70 ( which is 80mph on my speedo
nice vid man. I got the d606 on with the zip tie method. might be worth a shot next time
Not familiar with that method but I’ll check it out! Great tire nonetheless
How did you put the lens on the taillight, does it screw on, glue on or snap on? I ordered one also from crfsonly and got the stealth version and I emailed them and asked for a red lens and they said they will see what they can do.
There are three screws on the back of the light where the plug comes out. The stealth cover comes off (leds stay) and the new cover goes on. Very simple actually. I hope you get a new cover. We deserve what is advertised for that kind of money!!
Can't wait to see this out in the Bush! Keen to see how the new gearing works in the tight sections, and just overall performance. Would you be open to doing some pov riding videos with minimal talking. (Not that I don't like listening to your voice haha) So few videos online of the crf300l where you can hear the engine reacting to the terrain.
POV riding is coming! Just waiting for slightly warmer weather and a GoPro mount. Stay tuned!
Will be interested in a video on the suspension upgrade. Thanks
That one is definitely coming.
Vermont here too! Rad video and solid insight on tires.
Yewww!! Maybe I’ll see you out there this year!
You are missing the lense bulbs should not be exposed you are short a part for your 160
Appreciate the feedback. I believe this one is what 12 o’clock labs calls the “stealth version.” CRFsOnly just got back to me last night and said they would ship me a new lens. Update video coming soon!
@@vermontnpk1748 ....what about the programmable part ?
@@ronald8673 figured out how to program it via another video on here. I’ll cover that in my next video.
I have tusk dsport rear and my21 front. Og tires lasted 1,200 miles.
I got that same taillight straight from 12 o'clock labs and mine has a smoked lense over the LEDs.
They do have a kickstand extension on Amazon. $15 bucks. It helps and I got one for my 300l.
Would you mind sharing a link? The only ones I’ve seen are maybe a .25 extension. I think ideally we need an inch extension, especially once a 90 aspect ratio tire is installed (which is on its way).
