I own a kawisaki. This video offends me. It looks like the only logical decision is to file a lawsuit. Lol
It doesn’t matter how fast it goes, it’s the rider who makes it fast
yeah, but in a long straight road the Honda cr 250 would win over the Kawasaki kx 250 any time. But I the woods and the track, then it's about the rider.
Nah he babies the throttle at the beginning with the kx
M&C Fishing true
Todd McDonald Yeah, when you're doing straight. If you deny that, you obviously haven't been to a drag race. Every little thing you do is trying to beat that clock. Whether it be take off, shifting, or just the position of your body. It takes the rider to make that bite go fast. And no matter where you are, the rider is the one that won wake that bike win the race...
No its not
Charlie needs to teach his older brother how to ride. Go Chuck!
As many bikes these kids own or go thru they cant ride worth crap lol.
👐😆
Littarly manz whole channel is yard riding and stright aways😂🙄
Where are you finding these 250’s in this shape for 1000?
"are you scared to go 85 on a bike?"
Charlie: "No."
"Haven't done that in a while"
Charlie: "yeah I have.." haha best part
That smell was probably your clutch burning. Your not supposed to sit there with the clutch in for 4 minutes
Thought the same shit
The Honda sounded like it was redlining and the Kawasaki was idling, Some advice if you're racing, GIVE IT SOME FREAKING GAS !
For a real "race" let the same person ride each bike one at a time and time them
0:00 time letting the bikes warm up SHM
My first ride on a dirt bike was a old Kawasaki 250 back in the 90s. I was a quad rider and never had a 2 stroke. The first time I hit that power band I was addicted lol. All these years later I still ride a 2 stroke quad ( Polaris 400 scrambler )
Put same sprocket size on both bikes. You need to even out the playing field before you say the CR is faster.
Adam Heppner I agree , unfair race 🏁
Adam Heppner They're making a race to see which one is faster, If you want to make them both perfectly equal bikes you might as well buy 2 kxs or 2 of the hondas... Whole point of having a race is to see which one is faster... Not to have 2 identical bikes in the same race... then its just down the which rider is best... And at that point it doesn't matter, Because every rider is a little different.
Didn’t you watch the video ?
Advance the timing on the kx like the cr and watch what happens
The reeds and pipe make more difference. A couple teeth will kinda even out. More low end, less top, vice versa.
Hey bro. I like your videos , thanks for doing it. I had a 2008 trx 700xx Honda and it was insanely fast. I'd love for you to find one and see how it stacks up compared to raptors and banshee. I'm telling you it was a gem and a beast! Be safe bro.
How did you find those bikes so cheap? Every bike around me is over 2k for junk.
Buy in cali
Amac1825 yah lol I’m looking for a dirt bikes and the Chinese Apollo bikes are 800 where I live
KaoticRod _YT wtf that’s crazy
Cheapest motocross bikes are in Slovenia 450 yzf 2014 for example is 2000-2500$
In sicily, the Cr 125 cost 1300€
Ive owned both of these and the same years and the honda was quicker than the kwak. The KX was all bottom and mid but the honda was better right through the rev range. And night and day stronger in terms of build quality. That said, I liked them both
You got a hell of a deal on both bikes. What do your neighbors say about racing in front of their houses?
That KX sounds very tired, I've got a 03 KX 250 that runs great and it sounds NOTHING like the KX in this video. And yes just 1 or 2 tooth difference will definitely change the outcome. I suggest redoing the top end and then race them on a Motocross course and see what the outcome is.
The idle is too high on this kx it could be an air leak
You babied the throttle on the kx at the start. You should’ve for sure been ahead of him when you guys started. That sprocket is smaller so it picks up speed faster but then in the long run the Honda would’ve started catching up. It should’ve been way closer
Smaller rear means more top speed bigger rear means faster acceleration
If the kx has a 51t and cr has a 49t rear sprocket then it’s not going to be a fair race both bikes need to be running same final drive
If that were true, it shoulda been the one pulling on low end. The reeds and pipe make way more difference than one size up sprocket. And it's lack of 6th gear, I had no idea kx's didn't have 6th. Why ANY bike built after like 95 wouldn't have 6 gears is beyond me. Including xr's and quads. Only thing that ever gave a warrior an edge over my 400 was an extra gear. But I usually smoked em anyway.
Why would you need 6 gears if your on a motocross track and manly only use 4th and down like they were made for?
Wasnt the cr “blown up”
RC MAN 23 check out Charlie's latest Vid, he explains it
It was a praink
RC MAN 23 what’s his channel
When it comes to these old bikes it’s all about who’s owned them and who’s built them that affects how well they will perform.
the kx sounds good
There must be something wrong with the kx. And you guys do know all 250's and 450's are usually 5 speed right. 5 speeds aren't stupid,.
n1k007 right, 99% of bikes are 5 speeds. I do prefer a 6 speed, but it doesn't make it faster.
depending on the year of the bike the earlier ones had six speeds one down five up
Thats because they are track bikes. Nobody really goes 90 mph on a motocross track
he dose not know how to drive the kx i have a kx65 and it go's 90 and my dad has a kx250 and it go's 110
savage Barrett Jr if your 65 goes 90 its geared really really high
My kx250 with a big bore kit & aftermarket stuff on it was a monster it was a scary bike to ride I loved it
1000$ for a 250 wow you get steals
BIG AL’s Reactions it a 1998 its old
@Tom Bateman exactly I like.older bikes holds up better and seem.to have more power
98-00 cr250’s are probably the most sought after years. $1000 for one is definitely a steal!
I got husqvarna cr 250 2003
For 800€ still runs great have it for 5 months now
@@purelove7855 i have a 800$ 01 kx 250 thats smooth as butter
''it does have a metal frame...'' lmao you mean steel brother
Ik when it comes to the 500s stock to stock the kx blows the cr outta the water
REED explosives yeah
I've always heard the kx 500 is a lot easily to handle and less power. And the Cr is brutally fast and powerful but eh guess it's all opinions
Jacob Greeson it is opinions but the way the bikes are made to I'm a Honda guy and I'd prefer the kx over the cr just the way you sit on the bike feels more controlable
Cr 500 is aggressive the way it accelerates much less if you do any work. Both the cr and the kx 500s are good. I prefer the cr because I love how it just puts power down and will flip straight over if your not careful. Would make a decent bike with a stretched swing arm to do the 8th mile strip. Had a 400ex fixed up and have been clocked at 96mph in the 8th. So I have no doubt a 2stroke with 100ccs more would do every bit of 110mph maybe 115mph
More videos please I love these
That kx250 souds soooooo lean it hurts my ear to listen to it🤣
What are the stock sprocket sizes?
MAN YOUR RIGHT ,I JUST PUCKED UP A 01 KX250, AND IT DOES NEED ANOTHER GEAR
Change those sprockets on the kx back to stock and watch the outcome, both are only 5 speed bikes too.
You should do a test of the kx
You got 2 good deals. Nice. I'm looking for the same, 2 bikes.
Yous are all talking about the rear sprocket gearing, no one mentioned the front. 1 tooth on the front can make up like a 3 tooth difference in the rear or something like that😂
Sprocket difference is everything bro!! But I'ma honda fan!!
Did a rebuild on the CR?
you guys should put the full fmf system from the kx to the cr and the vforce reads
Um it doesn't work like that.
Where do live where bikes are that cheap ??
The kx should be a faster bike it really depends on the set up of the bike and the rider . Is olivia not in to motorbikes ?
Where do you guys live? I live in stevens point WI.
Wait Im lost. Where is this the other cr250
What is the fastest 250?
Would you guys be able to give/sell me a dirt bike. Im looling for a good starter.
Do y’all add back on snap chat
Yes thanks Olivia
thought he was gonna say "i had a bad start".
2001 Honda cr 250 best year hands down and I own one!!! Ur 98 is a beast too for being all stock 👍🏻💪🏻🤘🏻
98s definitely the best year haven’t u seen Ronnie Mac
Should i get a cr250
Pure joy from watching this
If you live in the tri state area i wanna buy the kx im searching for one and that ones clean
Where is Olivia's truck?
congrats on 40k
I have a kx250 just like that I love it
how tall is charlie ?
Honda didn't change the engine in the CR250 from 96-02 and Kawasaki kept the KX250 evil from the beginning of production to the end I love both bike's but the Kawasaki KX250 is my favorite by far
I love this channel
What camera is that guy?
That kid looks terrified of that bike.
how come u have mx bikes but never hit jumps
M e t a l F r a m e
You should find an 80s rm400 or 500, give the CR a run for its money
When I was growing up I had a 95 cr250 with a 48 rear sprocket, reeds and a fatty pipe that ate up kx's. Raced a 97 kx250 with reeds and a 49 sprocket killed it, beat a 01 kx250 with a big bore and reeds dont remember the pipe and a 50 sprocket and an 05 kx250 all stock besides a narly pipe. Never had any kx come close to beating my CR closest race was the 01 kx but still got it by half a bike. Held her wide open and banged the gears never used the clutch and never lost to anything but a 450 4 stroke.
Yes I might be 2-3 years late but I have a choose between these and a
ktm sx 250 2t
Ktm exc 250 2t
Kdx 200 2t
Kx 250 2t
Cr 250 2t
Yz 250 2t
Which is the best maintenance wise cheap parts and the strongest to brake. I want it to be a solid bike that is easy to maintain fairly cheap parts and a strong bike thank you in advance
id actually pick the cr because i ride one too and im really happy with it but its your choise all of them are nice bikes :)
It doesnt sounded like you shifted you got to third gear then that was it
i thought the cr did blow up
It was a prank it’s not really blown up Charlie posted about it on his channel I think
it was the 125 that blew up
christian motovloggers nope 250
nah man it was the 400
noo they dont have 400 and honda never made a 400 two stroke
It’s really annoying how your always trying to get a head start on your brother it ruins these races.
Now that is a mans bike
It seems as if the power valve on the kx is stuck open. it has no low end power. And it’s geared very low change the sprocket and fix the power valve and it will fn fly!!!!
Next video: cr500 vs crf50
How tall are you
How about kx250 VS cr125
top speed doesnt get you to the Finnish line first. apparently you've never been a competitive rider.
Damn that kx needs its balls back lol
I think the kx is gonna win on the take off,but the cr will win in the long run!
Didnt even let the bikes warm up
Something not right with the Kawasaki, my dad had a 2001 Kx 250 as well and it did 130kph , did 125kph no problem, I’m not saying one should be faster then the other but it should be way more close than that
This kx is sweeet. Go check trxmh vids guys,he got the same bike,see how it ripppps!!!
You should put a new top end and smaller sprocket on the Kx
Smaller rear sprocket will give it less acceleration but higher top speed
Wow my kx 250 smokes my neighbors cr 250
Well that’s a 98 son trust me nothing can beat a 98 cr 250
Just depends how well your bike is tuned. Usually they are about even unless one is down on power and not jetted correctly
WOW the kx sounds nothing like mine i have the same bike same year but i have a fmf powercore 2 and a pro circuit
There is no 2 stroke out there to beat the cr 250...
I also thanked you guys are being way bias and kinda want the cr to win cuz you love it and think it’s so good, but don’t want to see it get beaten
I thought the 250 blowed up
Two strokes suppose to rev high lol. Not a 4 stroke.
That kx needs surgery. That old girl is whooped. You can hear it has zero top end power
Both bikes need a fresh top end & better riders on em to
damn that was awsome hondas the best for sure but i have a crf240r 4 stroke but i really want a 2 stroke but i dont have the money.
ErUpT stick with the 4 stroke
William Davidson nah get the 2 stroke
Trade it for a 2 stroke
I sold my 01 ttr125 for 850 saved it and waited two months and bought a 04 yz125 for the same price
DeAndre Clarke damn
i like your vids bro but both bikes are 5 speeds so this 5 vs. 6 is a no go. something wrong with the kawi or your not short shifting it like it wants. you cant scream the gears out on the KX like you can on that year CR. 2 teeth is only about 4 mph on top but the internal ratios are not the same so it may be less.
Che anno è Honda 250
You need to be racing these bikes on the grass or dirt so you can get that 2-stroke swingin
Kawasaki wins
I like cr better but put same sprocket on kx and it would be jus as fast if not faster with the fmf pipe
Does not anyone realize having a bigger rear sprocket will make you accelerate faster so the kx should have took off quicker. Guessing it was pretty clapped and or they're sandbagging to make cr win
And then he found out that the front sprocket matters too.
He knows nothing about gearing 🤣🤣🤣he explained the sprockets so wrong
what is charlies channel?
2Vintage Too
Put the same sprocket on the kx an I bet u the results will be different
Wym the kx only has 5 gears your tripping or ypur 6th gear is out those are six speed bikes....
How can it be a fare race if you dont give the other guy a fare start, let him say 321 cause you constantly have the advantage
You know the Kawasaki is ment more for tork and then you guys take out the part when its at is fastest which is the start so kinda unfair
Why do you guys always bog on starts lol
people are getting salty that a cr is faster than a kx 🤦🏾♂️ n most of those people are people who own kx’s n just don’t like the fact that the bike they own is slower than another bike
You jumped the start
