gixxerphil's 2021 CRF300L Rally #concretelander

Awesome stuff man! Never too many pics of these beauties. I just got a crf300l, what little rockets they are.

 

Been enjoying the bike













Finally mounted the Hepco & Becker Lock-It tank bag

 

I want a 300L to go along with the Rally. It would serve as a "buddy bike" and still let me ride if/when I can pull the trigger on the 550 301 kit

I absolutely love these little bikes

 

Got my factory LED turn signals put together. Thursday I will be able to throw them on along with the new grips, handguards, battery tender........and whatever else I have piled up

 

I couldn't stand the fact the rear signals wouldn't match the front.........so I ordered those today

 

Got the front factory LED turns on(Asian market gets these). Rears will be here tomorrow

 

That looks so sweet man. Did you change your seat by the way? Ever take any passengers?

 

It's a Seat Concepts seat that came with the bike. Never ridden with a passenger. I don't think the rear shock is up to the task. Suspension is a huge weak spot for the CRF300's. Mine will eventually be swapped for Rally Raid Level 1 stuff.

 

I forgot to add pics of the rears.

 

I ordered a PAIR valve delete from 550 Performance a while back to get rid of the charcoal canister and crap....and don't know where I stashed it. So I just ordered this kit from HiVolt. I like the fact it has the plugs with it.

 

Kinda of bike related...since it's for motocamping

I have a little dog that I don't think would do well boarding. She'd treat it like a trip to the Thunderdome So, I got her a helmet, goggles, and backpack so that she can start moto camping with me.

 

what about ear muffs? that loud noise is gonna hurt her ears after awhile!

 

She'll put them back like wings on a F14 or get down in the bag

She rides with her head stuck out the window most of the time anyway

 

Got a weird sound after using the front brakes this morning on the way to work. It happens for just a second after releasing the front brakes. I'm right at 8K miles, so I ordered some new pads front/rear

 

Her first ride was a success.

 

I bought some rain gear for "just in case" moments

 

After adding camping gear in the mix, I'm gonna have to deal with the massive sag.

I have been dreaming of Rally Raid suspension for a while. I just can't stomach the $1700 cost. So I took a $250 gamble on a cheaper version. I was under the impression that the spring couldn't be replaced.

I bought a stock shock for $50 and replacement Race Tech spring with compressor for $120. I figured this way I won't have to take my bike out of commission if something goes wrong with changing the spring.





I'll order the front upgrade for $130 at some point.

 

Cools. I haven’t looked your bike up in any way at all. Can you not even adjust preload on the rear spring at all to help some?

I found out awhile back that Eibach, does moto f/r springs as well. Been meaning to tell you, but kept forgetting about it. That said, for my bike.. they list many a rear spring but no real useful info on them. The only thing I see is different part numbers for said springs. I have been meaning to call or shoot an email about them.

Looks like they list the Honda, but not your bike. I wonder if you can find out the inside diameter of the coil spring and thickness, along with length. And maybe find a possible spring from another bike to work.

You can. I was told mine was all the way up.
