Great work Ross
Fantastic that your all over your bike know more than most Guys I think.
Looks great and everything you have done is for a purpose.
Look forward to more adventures safe travels Cheers
A woman of many talents... way to go Roz... Much respect
Thanks for your kind words m8! 😁🙏🏍💨
That's some great changes Roz that bikes going to be mint.
Great explaining young lady. As I watched further, I started to really groove your style of explanation.
I also applaud your knowledge and ambition in your mods! Not many women can roll up their sleeves and appreciate a nice bike.
With my Honda on order, I appreciate all you shared on your many upgrades. Pity in the States we lack such amazing gals as you!
Thank you for your kind words Steven! 😁🙏 I’m sure there’s a lot of great girls out there riding but who simply don’t record their journey. It takes a bit of effort capturing the memories but I’m glad I’ve got something to watch one day when I’m old & stuffed! 😂🙏🎥 Carry on buddy! 😜👍🏍💨
I had a good chuckle watching and enjoying a woman with attitude and good mechanical know how. Way to go Rozalyn. Big things have little beginnings, subscribed. There's a corner in my container with all the goodies waiting to go on my 3 hundy Rally, when it arrives at the end of June. I can understand your excitement being able to customise your L to your taste. You obviously have put time into your research and chosen well. I look forward to Ep2. Have to compliment you on your editing skills, you make it entertaining and fun to watch.
Hahaha thanks buddy. Yep, tinkering on the bike is half the fun & excitement. I’ve previously made all the expensive mistakes when I first got my CRF250L…so now thankfully I’m a tad seasoned and know what’ll work for me and my curious adventures off the beaten track! 🤦🏻♀️🤞😂 You’re soooooo going to love your 300! 🥰🙏 Just be sure to give him/her a name…it gives it ‘soul’ when you do! 😂🙏🏍💨 It’s always an adventure…carry on! 😜👍🏍💨
Thanks for your quick release seat idea, did my version over the weekend, so good.😀
Hahaha I’d love to take credit for it but I stole the idea of another CRF300L rider on the east coast…Scott Wearing! Gold! 😂👍🏁 Plagiarism at its finest! 🤣 And yep, fantastic little mod for sure!
That exhaust system is a thing of beauty indeed, both visually and aurally.
Hahaha I know right?! 😍🙏 It’s a shame I had to put the heat shield back on and cover up that beautiful piece of work! 🤦🏻♀️ Safety first! 🤞😂
That is one pretty bike. Well done!!!!
Fantastic video, each upgrade was like christmas!!
Nice work with that rear brake lever Roz, it's amazing what we can do when we use our brains to solve a problem! 👍
Hahaha 100% 🧠😂👍 But I’m still wondering how it got bent in the first place…previous owner or transport company?! 🤔🤷🏻♀️😂🙏
@@RozalynVeersma, If you haven't already, get or fab up a little brake cylinder guard, I'm sure you'll find something around your new home!😊
@@pmg8504 ordered a Zeta one last Friday! 😂👍🏁
@@RozalynVeersma Nice one Roz, I tried looking for the rear leaver on AMX, but couldn't find it, even tried the listing for the CRF250L. What do you know that I don't!🙈
On ya roz it’ll get you out n about this cracking country just fine mate luv the lil Ronda’s cheers
Very useful viewing. I liked the explanations and the detailed camera views of websites and your work. Bike looks great. Will be using the ideas to modify my Honda when it arrives. Thank you.
Thanks JD 😁🙏 Ep3 coming up soon with what should be the final upgrades! 🤞😂🍀 Just on a 3 day test ride as we speak. Bush heaven! Hope your ‘wings’ arrive soon! 😁🙏🏍💨
Looking much better Roz, ready for some comfortable adventuring with that bit of punch if you need. Double Thumbs Up.
🦅
Thanks mate and still lots of improvements to go! Air box mods, flashed ECU, bars, grips, bark busters, screen, rack, USB, tank, etc! 🥵😂👍🏁🏍💨
Great bike, thanks for the video and take care.
Loads of helpful tips and tricks.
Wow awesome Roz Hèrmes is one lucky boy he's going have the same love and attention as your lovely Artemis does 🥰 you've smashed it with all the mods..May l just say when you first fired up Hèrmes up with his new beautiful exhaust on your face said it all...not pleased with the sound....rip the baffle out...and when you fired up the second time YIPPEE YIPPEE..yes yes yes 😀 👍..outstanding stuff brilliant vid so so so pleased for ya girl thanks so much for sharing your work on ya bike 🏍 as always take care and be safe what a adventure...see ya soon in your next vid...carry on Roz 🥰🏍👍
Hahaha so you noticed that?! 😂🙏 Yep…temporarily disappointed BUT thank gawd it was only that pesky little silencer otherwise spanners may have been thrown! 🤞😂🛠
@@RozalynVeersma Hi ya Roz yep l did notice but once you had sorted it out that beautiful smile came out 😊 awesome proud of ya ....can't wait for the next installment !!!! Carry on girl 🥰🏍👍
What😏Ros gold digging. Did I hear correctly🤷♂️. Great mods, thanks for sharing
Really enjoyed your video Roz...
Thanks buddy! 😁🙏🏍💨
Hi Roz simply brilliant . Rolley
Badass 🖤💪. Subscribed
Roz
Top upgrades - the best being suspension, you know the benefit of those $$$ many do not upgrade suspension but those who have know the real handling improvements of those suspension upgrades …😂
Wow, love your work! I wish I was as talented as you! I rely on my hubby to do everything on my bike for me, but now I'm inspired to try to do some things for myself! 👍🏍️😁 PS just bought a WR250R which is way tall for me so, waiting on having it lowered.
Awesome chica! Yep…you’ve got nothing to lose & everything to gain by giving it a go! 🤞😁🛠 I started with the simple things like changing oil & filter and cleaning/lubing my chain. It all starts with a ‘desire’ to do it yourself and I have no doubt you’re hubby would be keen to teach you if you were keen to learn! 😁🙏
I too looked at a WR250R when I first went bike shopping but my legs were dangling in fresh air! 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️😂🙏 Enjoy the adventures chica…carry on! 😁👍🏁🏍🏍💨
@@RozalynVeersma 😍 Thanks, I'll definitely give some of the easier stuff a go when hubby gets back from his adventure in NT 👍🏍️
wow! amazing!
Nice and tasteful upgrades Roz 👍
About time Honda motor company started paying you 🙂
Baaaaahahaha would be nice if they just did some of these mods from the get-go BUT it is after all a low cost reliable little red pig that for me, is worth the investment! 😂🙏💸 The memories will be priceless! 🤞😂🏍💨⛺️
Love the memories you gave us all from you last epic adventures Roz , what a wonderful year that was , you showed us many beautiful places around Australia , your filming and auditing is A1 , love your macro shots of wild life right down to the tiny insects and our wonderful wild flowers and trees , like you I think the red tail cockatoo are just magical with their prehistoric calls included . also love your life motto " carry on " it reminds me of Mum's family motto , Live for today " .. .. 😄
Rozinator, love it. 😂👍
Hahaha a term coined by one of my beautiful RUclips followers! 😂🙏
Cool bike
Nice mods 👍
Fantastic mods mate , if you want to bring the side stand up a bit I always mount a hockey puck on the base it’s a 1 inch thick and can be shaped . The SWM RS and Superduel brake line was the same I cable tied out of the way . With the saving of the pipe weight helps account for all the other bling we put on our bikes 😂😂😂, but definitely weight from up high is a good 👍 thing . Mate to lower you bike a bit more just drop you forks through the triple clamps about 10mm ( you know me Roz a short ass as well ) do it with most bikes I have owned better than dropping with links . I get VERY excited 😆 when you use a grinder 😂😂😂, it’s my favourite tool 👍.I have the same compressor had it for at least 8 years GOLD.
I’ve still got the Kouba link to lower another 45mm BUT I’m waiting until I get my custom pannier racks made and will load the bike up adventure ready. Once that’s done, I’ll get my suspension guy to tune the suspension for my weight, full load and style of riding. If it then needs to go lower, I’ll install the Kouba link and won’t have to touch the side stand height and then get the geometry of the bike reset again (includes fork height). Oh my poor brain! 🤦🏻♀️😂
@@RozalynVeersma that makes sense with the lowering link and side stand
It's always a treat to watch a woman work on her moto. Thanks for sharing that treat. I thought he would've sewn some additional straps to the sheepskin so that they can go under the seat to secure it, though. Love sheepskin on a bike.
Hahaha you lads have had the best kept secret for way too long! 😂👍🛠 Can’t wait to build my own she-cave! 🤣 Yep, that was a temporary set up with the sheepskin and now the straps have been sewn (got it back on Friday), it’s perfect and will be in the next vid! 😁👍🏁🐑🏍
You are making up for lost time of your youth. Motorcycling lives in your soul, a yearning to explore and discover, vista to see. The Little machines set your soul free and allow you to imagine the best of things. Some people don't get it. The freedom to explore your own soul, listen to your thoughts as you ride. At the times when you crash you are learning how to string together new varieties of cuss words. I'm always upset at myself, I'm sure you are as well.
More shots of you tippy towing before you put on your luggage on the bike. It will squat some when you put the luggage on. You may get the balls of your feet solidly on the ground.
We are all together on these two wheel contraptions trying to find goodness in our soul. The world is crazy.
Man oh man, that CRF 300 look huge with you sitting on it. You're making it look better and better.
"Texas" on the prairie
@@RozalynVeersma You could bolt the straps UNDER the bolt on rear bracket possibly. They would be out of sigt as well if it is possible and not get exposed to UV that will eventually kill them.
Watching a woman work on a bike is a bit too arousing for me. Watched Vanessa ( Girl on a bike) blow a dent out of her expansion chamber with compressed air and a gas axe , and had to go and have a little lay down afterwards...
@@gregjetnikoff7124 I could…but if I left them where they are, I could move the configuration if/when I wanted to strap other temporary luggage there and wouldn’t have to undo the bolts to remove the straps. Rok straps are top of the range durability wise having had the existing set out in the weather and on the trails for over 2 years with daily use and they’re in awesome nick. And if anything did happen to either side of the strap where I’d have to replace one or both them, then I wouldn’t have to undo the seat bolts again to swap it out. Keeping everything simple and easy this time 🤞😂
My goodness, you're a handy girl. Excellent work on the heat shield. Although I like seeing the power bomb. I have an American dr-z 400 off-road only with an FMF power bomb made of titanium. I didn't know how lean the DRZ was until I saw the header pipe glowing red in the dark. Titanium is beautiful when it's hot. I rejected it and then rejected it again until the pipe was no longer red... Holy cow it melted the bottom of my front fender. That thing was as red as an old cigarette lighter in a car. Also installed cams. Recluse clutch, since I am an old man, you never know when the hands will give out.
I'm sure with your background and your son' drifting tendencies, you have heard the phrase "bat out of hell". All of those mods woke up the DRZ to where I've had to change the phrase. It's a bat going to hell on a rocket...NICE
That was a fun shot of you mounting the 300 with the camera at the back of the bike, allowed all of us to see you tippy towing. That's cute. I thank God for long legs. I have several off-road motorcycles with modified suspension, even greggie has to tiptoe when the seat height is 39 inches.
Loved the video of you working on your bike. I love the tinkering. I'm looking forward to more of the same.
Dry as a nuns nasty, I don't think I'll ever forget that. I thought I might get struck by lightning just for watching that part of your video
Hahaha. I should have covered my ears and said na na na na na na
My head is on fire! I laughed and turn red in my face at the same time. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"Oh", I'm still here. You are a riot
"Texas" on the prairie
Hahaha absolutely love your interaction Texas! I love the cyber friendships I’ve made through this crazy journey and I love hearing others stories too! Because that’s what we all are…creating stories, living stories and telling stories. That’s memoirs…memories! 🥰🙏 When you tell me about your past experiences, I’m totally feeling it too because I get it! Can’t believe I didn’t discover dirt life earlier in my life! 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️😂🙏🏍💨 Oh well…carry on! 😂👍🏁
Nice job on the heat shield. I've found without one, I will burn the outside left leg of my riding pants when standing next to the bike when it's hot. Like when pulling it out of a mud hole or something like that, not realizing my left pant leg is touching the hot pipe. Ruined (melted) a good pair of MX pants before I figured it out. 😄
Ouch! 😳🤞😂 Yep, as much as I loath to cover up that beautiful piece of engineering…safety first! 🤞😂
After all the fires over the past few years, I'm surprised that Australia doesn't require a spark arrestor. Pretty easy to fit one of those cone-shaped ones. Carry on.
Unfortunately most fires here are started by pyromaniacs or dry lightening. Both are devastating. 😔🙏🔥 When it’s too hot here, we have ‘fire bans’ and on those days, you’re not allowed to ride (or drive) in the fire prone areas, let alone use a chain saw or even a BBQ. It’s pretty strict and fines apply if you get caught. We’re all very much onto what is safe & what’s not. 😁👍
You going to get a windscreen upgrade be good for touring
Enjoying watching the video from Thailand 🇹🇭 😀
Yes I am indeed! I bought one already and now just have to fabricate the framework and hopefully it turns out great! Riding it without a windscreen now has proven to me just how invaluable and effective they are. They keep you warmer when it’s freezing cold, stops the wind buffeting which reduces arm/shoulder/neck fatigue and protects the gadgets mounted behind it too. Can’t wait to see what it’s going to look like but I have to change the bars & Mount the bark busters first. Doing that this weekend! 🤞😂🍀
@@RozalynVeersma awesome 👌 you're bike looks great roz looking forward to watching your adventures 😀
Holy moly
I seem to remember a certain person telling me she was NOT going to upgrade to the 300!.... :-) I love mine!
Wow! You are so amazing. I just love watching you work on things and improvise, adapt, and overcome all the obstacles. So what’s next? I want to come ride with you so bad. But I’m not getting vaxed!!!!!
Baaaaaahahaha thanks buddy! 😂🙏🛠 And I’m in the same boat as you too…naturally aspirated and planning on staying that way too! 🤞😂🏃🏻♀️💉 We’ll have to find a loophole somehow! 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️😂🙏
@@RozalynVeersma Lets do it. We will figure something out. Might just buy my own boat and head that way. But that is a long fucking way from Texas!
@@craigreed8193 hahahaha come on universe! Show us how to do it!!! 🤞😂🍀🏍🏍💨 Maybe I’ll make a quick call to some mates? 🤔👽🛸😂🙏
wow Thank you Ross. Damn i wish i had my bike now, you inspire me to just get stuck in and modify.
I really ike the Zeta pedals,
when researching theres alot of variety's which ones did you get? (inregards to both the shifter and the brake.
was it the 250l model or somthing else.
THANK YOU Ross keep up the great videos
Thanks for your kind words buddy! 😇🙏 I’ll get the zeta part numbers for you from my AMX invoice 😁👍
@@RozalynVeersma Hey Roz, did u have any luck sorry?
Thanks you
@@ethanbates9651 sorry buddy! I was digging through my invoices ti get the part numbers and got called back up to Kalgoorlie! I’ve got 3-4 more days up here and I’ll head back down to Perth & get you those numbers! 🤞😁
Great fab work on the pipe make sure the USB port has an off switch or they can drain your battery cheers
Yep…thanks buddy. My last one I had direct wired to the battery & when I’d charge my appliances in the evening, I’d always simply pull the SAE plug as soon as it looked like dropping under 12.0 on the inbuilt digital gauge. This guaranteed no accessory power drain. Still investigating whether or not to use the accessory plug provided by Honda in the cluster behind the headlight. It has a bizarre connector that none of the electricians up here stock. So thinking I’ll just go back to keeping it simple and direct wiring like I had in Artemis! 🤞😂⚡️ KISS method! Keep It Simple Stupid!
@@RozalynVeersma yeah best to do it how you know it because if shit happens your the one who will be dealing with good idea enjoy
Hermes all dressed up for the dance 🕺 now let us know where the dance is going to be this time 🥰🇺🇸🇦🇺🇺🇦
Baaaaahaha Just a few more wicked bits to put on him first Texas and then we’re going to boogie like it’s 1969! 😂👍💃🏻🕺🏍💨
@@RozalynVeersma can you tell the difference in HP & Tork 300vs 250 engines. 🏍❤️
@@rogerhenson6589 yes absolutely! Even with the performance mods I did on Artemis CRF250L…it’s a very noticeable increase. The new 6 speed gearing is freakin awesome particularly on highways which now sits on 110kmph without reving its box off! 😂👍🏁🏍💨
@@RozalynVeersma 😘Thanks for the information
Great video. I'm struggling with deciding between buying a CRF300L or an XT250 for riding 80/20 twin track/pavement. Any thoughts or did you consider an XT250?
Thanks m8! 😜👍🏁 I went straight from a KTM 350 Freeride to the Honda CRF250L. The Honda took me on a 450 day epic adventure ride around Australia (mostly dirt) and clocked up 49,500kms. The bike has done 82,000 hard kilometers mostly fully loaded with 2 panniers, top bag, extra fuel/water (circa 30-40kgs of adventure gear) in just under 3 years. I don’t know of many bikes that have accomplished the hard work that was asked of it and with absolutely minimal issues and low maintenance. So to upgrade to the CRF300L was a no brainer for me. Tried & tested & proven would be an understatement! 😂👍🏁🏍💨 Before getting the CRF250L, I did consider the WR250R and though it was slightly more powerful, had adjustable front suspension, was slightly more expensive…it was the height factor that ruled it out for me. No doubt about Honda quality & reliability given the price tag. I’m happy to spend a bit more on doing the CRF300L upgrades as I know I won’t be thinking about the cash I’ve spent when I’m having the best time ever on the trails. Priceless adventure rides & priceless memories! 😁🙏
Roz cool as ye x
The holes in the stock MotoX dBkiller are insufficient to flow the exhaust gas at higher gas flows. If you want to have it quieter than the open pipe, drill the 8 holes to 11mm. That will be a bit louder but flow sufficiently at high rpm .
Thanks for the heads up! 😁👍 I love the note that it is producing right now…it lets the wildlife know I’m coming! 😂🙏🐄🐃🐫🦘
You must be an engineer
Good work there Roz. But I'm going to tell you off!!! Where's your hearing protection while using the angle grinder?? You got to look after your hearing...
What? Can’t hear? You need to speak louder! 😂🤷🏻♀️
I think I’ve done more damage to my hearing with the music blasting in my helmet over the 82,000kms drowning out the wind noise in our ineffective overpriced helmets! 🤦🏻♀️😂🤣
You are a unit good on ya 🤣😀😀, are or have you found a bigger fuel tank for the 300 yet .
Hahaha thanks buddy…100%! 😂🤣 IMS are doing one but it’s only 1.5ltrs bigger than stock and we’ll over $500+ not including freight from US! 😱 Waiting to see if Acerbis are doing one that’s way more bigger than that! 🤞😂🍀
@@RozalynVeersma yeah for sure I’m very happy with the IMS 18L one on the WR that the size you need … 1.5L more that crazy , have ya done a decent ride with your new pipe to see how go’s power & fuel economy wise .
@@gregbrown5473 hopefully this weekend! 🤞😂🍀🏍🏁
Sounds grate have fun Roz 😀.
Where can I order the same bash plate you have? I think I prefer the ABS type
Bikerz Bits in Thailand. I’ve yet to put it through rigorous testing but so far so good! And for the price, I’m not too fussed if I have to upgrade to the Acerbis plastic plate! 😂👍🏁
Rozzz...............Can you please put that muffler silencer back in ?? You are disturbing your neighbours over here in Sydney. 🍷🍷🤪
Baaaaahahaha great! Now I really know it works! 😂😂👍🏁🏍💨
Hi Rozalyn, are you still riding your crf300l? I just bought one.
Sure am! Congratulations buddy…whoop whoop, let the adventures begin! 😂👍🏁🏍 I’m just waiting for my busted up ankle to heal (6 weeks down & 3 to go 😫..and no, I didn’t bust it up on the bike 🤦🏻♀️) and I’ll be on the dirt faster than you can say ‘adventure anyone?!’ 🤞😂🍀🏍⛺️

Zeta pivot lever set! 😁👍 Part No.ZE44-5013
Oh I made a typo. I meant the foot controls brake and clutch because stock ones if you hit a rock bends. They don’t pivot
@@TheZakkmylde Zeta foot gear lever ZE90-4042 & Zeta foot brake pedal ZE90-7022. Both bullet proof 💪😁 I bought mine from AMX Superstore in South Australia and shipped to WA in record time. Great service.
The left side shifter I found a zeta revolver. You can rotate the tip because it’s off-center and you can get different adjustments from it but the right side I was not able to find anything. Thanks I’ll
Check it out 🤘🏼
@@TheZakkmylde yep, the Zeta Revolver. I considered it but given I use the same boots every time I jump on the bike, I didn’t have a need to adjust my lever regularly and decided to keep it simple. 😂👍
Where did you order all your after market parts from
Several places m8! Bikerz Bits, MX Store, AMX Warehouse, Adventure Moto, Dale Britton Honda, AliExpress, etc. Stock is hit & miss everywhere at the moment due to the plague & resultant shipping issues, so I grab what I can, where I can. 🤞😁🍀
@@RozalynVeersma yeh very true I've been looking on some of those sights and not much stock at all but in no rush haven't got the 300 yet 😜

You ok Roz x missing you xxx
I’m always ok darl! Thank you for asking! 😁👍🏁
I have that seat, and the full sheep skin but don't need the skin. The seat is more comfortable without it, lower too. The D606 is the wrong tyre for that bike. too tall, too heavy and makes a sidestand adjustment necessary. Improve your bike and fit a 120/80 standard tyre next time, if you haven't already.
The seat with my light weight is excruciating and I wouldn’t be able to spend a couple of hours on it without the sheep skin unfortunately. I’ve tried many brands of tyres both front & rear in the 100,000kms covered over 3 years on every type of difficult terrain Australia has to offer and so far, the D606 on the rear has been the perfect tyre and goes the distance compared to the other brands & sizes I’ve tried. I think tyres come down to personal choice as everyone has different riding styles, set ups, loads, favoured terrains, etc. Until another better tyre comes along, I’ll be sticking to the D606 for my off the beaten track fully loaded up adventures! 🤞😁🏍
I've done 25,000 on that seat and it is awesome comfortable. You must have a bony arse.

More money than sense. $20k on a bike worth 5. lmao
Well phantomshTTer, that all depends on how you measure ‘worth’ mate! 🙄😂
Now that you’ve brought up the subject of sense, I’ll try my best to give you a bit of depth and breadth to your narrow opinion. 🤞😂🍀
My cheap ass CRF250L with its mod’s & upgrades did 82,000kms of amazing trails in 3 years since new and it’s still going strong! 💪😁🏍
I didn’t need convincing that buying the cheap ass new CRF300L plus upgrades was worth every cent I spend on it because its already proven how reliable, agile, light weight & super low maintenance these bikes are.
I know more than a few adventure riders with their $20k+ BMW’s, KTM’s, Huskies, AT’s, Tenere’s, etc. (not forgetting that they too accessorize & upgrade bits on their bikes) would be lucky to clock up 5,000kms of riding each year! 🤷🏻♀️🏍💸
So you have to ask yourself…who’s getting more bang for their buck and is having the best time ever?! 🤔🤷🏻♀️ I’d say that would be me! ☝️😂
And when I drop that cheap ass bike with its quality upgraded bits, unlike the big ticket bikes, I don’t have to sell a kidney to replace a lever or indicator! 🤣💸
Now let’s work on your maths skills because I’m at a loss to see how you arrived at the figure of $20k! 🤓🧮…🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️😂
@@RozalynVeersma tl;dr
Don't waste your money-get a real bike. Aprilia Tourag 660.
Unfortunately the Aprilia is not a common bike here in Australia and if I break something in the remote outback, I will be waiting forever to get replacement parts. I’m sure the Tourag is a great bike but it’s not very common down here at all. 😜👍
