and the 350, but even the 350 has a 37.6" seat height.
https://www.gasgas.com/en-us/models/enduro/4-stroke/es-350-2024.html I'd love to find a DS bike with a lower seat. I guess the Honda has about the lowest seat I've been able to find. ETA: https://powersports.honda.com/motorcycle/dual-sport/crf300ls 32.7" seat height |

I guess the Honda has about the lowest seat I've been able to find. I had to lower my KTM 350 XCF-W down to 34". Cost me close to $500. New springs in the forks and spacers in the rear. Then set up for my weight and abilities. I don't do woops well past the third one. Scares the shit out of me when we come up to a bunch of them while on Michigan single-track. One It would be really cool to see the auto-lowering technology that's on some ADV bikes migrate over to the enduro/dual-sport arena w/o robbing performance. |

If only there was a dealer within 100 miles and I was 40 years younger! Currently have a CRF300L, much better bike than the 250L, but still pales to the CRF 250x. Then again, I don't miss the high seat height and the oil changes. |

After neglecting my DR650 for a few years I've been riding it again lately. Today I got out and rode a bunch of gravel/dirt roads in the rural part of my county. I managed to find the unimproved creek crossing I came across a long time when I first started riding. Couldn't ride straight across, on the far side it dropped off to at least 2ft deep. I was able to skirt the edge to the left and cross downstream a bit.
I probably rode for about three hours, my ass feels bruised now. Worst seat ever. I finally decided to upgrade the seat to one from ProCycle.

What size is it? It will look even better after I put the rim stickers on this afternoon. It's the 300 race edition. Dual spark plug head, KYB suspension, pre mix, no oil injection. Runs awesome. |

Approaching level High Pimp. I think these also usually come with KYB stickers for the fork uppers. They weren't with the stuff the dealer gave me. I need them to reach High Pimp.

Went to a local gravel pit turned riding area this weekend. Had a lot of rain so it was muddier than I would have liked.
This was my second outing on the bike. Coming from 20 years of atv and road bikes, I’m still adapting to riding this thing. I know I do not like riding in sand   Attached File |
