What offroad 250F can beat the Yamaha? KTM 250XCF, Kawasaki KX250X, Sherco SEF250, GasGas EX250F? Comment below.
15:52 ⊠đ€
My first bike was a 2 stoke YZ125 when I was 14 years old I had a LOT of fun with that bike. My second bike was a Honda 4 stroke 200R. So I am NOT biased either way. That said I would without any hesitation choose the Honda.......
Thanks for sharing
I love my 2020 FX. I'm working on a dedicated hot start map which appears to have helped over the past weekend as I did 30-40 hot starts without to much issue, it also didn't require opening the throttle nearly as much as previously needed if at all. For reference I've gone -3 across the bottom row of fueling and 0 on ignition. -I've done all of the other recommended fixes. Little bit more testing required as I wasn't riding the bike nearly as hard as I normally would.
I'd like to see that map!
@@lgraff2301
So I did a bit more enduro style riding and it seemed to like it. Normally I shift into neutral and put it into the hot start map before switching off the bike (I've it set to map 2).
Hot start it and then switch back to my normal map before taking off.
Hopefully it formats correctly:
Fuel Injection:
0 0 0 0
-1 -1 -1 -1
-2 -2 -2 -2
-3 -3 -3 -3
Ignition:
-2 -2 -2 -2
-2 -2 -2 -2
-1 -1 -1 -1
0 0 0 0
Interestingly my bothers 2019 FX has a larger starter motor and its located on the front side of the engine where it's in the airflow and he doesn't have any issues.
So I wonder if the 2020's have the issue because the starter motor is located on the rear of the engine right next to the start of the header??? -I might have to do some testing.
YZ all day long. I love my 23 FX
Yeah they hit a home run when the new model YZ bikes
@@dirtbikesamYour buddy Kyle liked his a few years ago. 2 strokes all day long !
My 2021 250fx is a phenomenal bike. No other 4t bike can compete!
They are amazing
The flame outs on the Honda can be fixed by simply turning your idle up. Might not be a 100% fix but it will help.
Yeah that would have helped
I have a 20 fx and a 22 rx. Iâve revalved both and put aftermarket tanks on both. The rx is for sale. I donât know if Iâll ever sell the fx.
đ€đœ
Yeah our 22' RX is for sale as well.
Thatâs the only complaint I have racing woods with my 23 fx hard to start on a hill for sure just hard to start in general but runs like no other
agreed.
FX all day! Canât wait till the 25 with the updates come out!
Same here!
Honda needs a *6 speed transmission, electric fan kit*, and another model for woods enduro with lights like the WR from Yamaha. Wish they would build a bike like RedMoto offers. The 6 speed makes a huge difference and no sprocket gearing changes can overcome lack of 6 gear.
Agree
As much as I like Hondas, have to agree in everything you said. This CRF 250RX is pretty much an MX bike with an 18 inch wheel rear tire. There is market for that Iâm sure, but I want a nice 4 stroke enduro bike with Honda reliability.
@@rogermty1971 Agree the 5 speed along with no light/electric fan and no parts catalog like GYTR parts and be nice if it was a 300cc
@@rogermty1971 I own a 24 250rx, I put radiator braces, fan kit, g2 throttle tamer, wrap around hand guards, I love it, I finally got my ktm xcf350w back, and i like the honda better in the trails.
Just got a 2024fx and I have no regrets. Im coming from a 1999 CR125 so it's a very big difference.
Congrats!
Would definitely like to see how the KTM 250XC-F stacks up to the Yamaha but a huge factor always seems to come back to Yamahaâs out of the box KYB setup.
Yeah tough to beat Yamaha stock suspension without going after market
Honda RedMoto tank and shrouds are what the bike should come with.
I couldnât get over the rigid suspension and frame on the Honda. Even after two revalves.
What bike do you have now?
Did checkpoint offroad revalve?
This isnât a R ⊠itâs a Rx ⊠has a better suspension than the R
Make a video of the different dirt bike âmapsâ the Yamaha app offers 3 different tunes and the option to adjust it. Whatâs the keefer setting?
Itâs Kris Keefers YZ250F map setting that he built
No engine braking?
Kris Keefer has quite a few maps out there. What is your favorite and where can I find it. Thanks. Nice vid
Hmm good question. I will have to look.
Came from 2012 ktm 150xc and 2010yz250f before that, got into sxsâs sold the bikes now itching to get back on a bike for 2024 debating between yz250fx or beta 250-300 race edition or ktm or husky 250-300 two strokes. Damnit itâs gonna be tuff choice!!!
Oh yeah you have a tough choice on your hands for sure! Good luck and welcome back
I love the Beta, but I wish so bad they were not carbureted.
I'm trying to choose between the beta 390 and crf 450rx
I heard that the stalling issues in the crf250rx could be from the fuel injector
I own one⊠itâs just rider error⊠once youâre used to the bike you donât have any problems
could be.
13:59 Getting a little western!
What trail in Utah is that?
email me at sam @dirtbikesam.com and I will tell you.
Do you think I could get the Yamaha as a first bike?
Yes itâs a great bike
What woods bike has the tallest seat to peg distance?
Not sure to be honest
Why why canât Yamaha sort the starting issues out
Yeah itâs annoying to start
but, for an everything bike, you would take a two stroke?
Yes but thatâs my personal preference
Would these be good beginner bikes or good for trail riding ?
I would not considered them beginner bikes but they are awesome for trail riding in my opinion
â@dirtbikesam been doing a lot of research and a lot of people told me they started on something tamer like a 250f trail bike and once they learned to ride they got bored and sold them for something more powerful
So 250F like these bikes are considered full fledge race bikes, while they are easier to ride then lets say a 450F they still have tons of power and just like you see in motocross a 250F can keep up with 450F bikes. I have been riding for a very very long time and the only place a 450F walks away from a 250F is in long straights, deep sand. I can ride a 250F faster then I can ride a 450F. Yes, getting a 250F is a better idea then getting a 450F but you still need to respect the power of a 250F, I feel like the number 1 goal for dirt biking is to have fun and be safe. You can learn the proper riding technique on any dirt bike but if you get hurt then that means no riding at all. Really its up to you on what you think works best for you. My first full size dirt bike was a CRF250X which is a milder version of these race bikes in the video.
đ„22â250 fix..
But there is no way I would buy a four-stroke for all the known issues between maintaining/repairing a four-stroke and a two-stroke. Two-strokes rule! LOL
Iâm also a big fan of 2 strokes
I said this until I rode my 2023 YZ250FX
Except that Honda engines are bulletproof.
You just saved me a lot of typing lol Iâd never buy a motorcycle thatâs way more expensive thatâs harder to work on and more expensive to maintain
Yamaha four stroke cylinder head assembly $624. Two stroke=$0.
Yeah 2 strokes are cheaper to repair
i got a 22 250RX
Congrats how are you looking it?
Why are you posting a review of 2022s in 2024 ? đ€
well that video was from last year and as much as I would love to have all new bikes every year the bike budget is there yet. Also they didn't really change anything from 2022-2024 in these models. What bike do you have?
â@@dirtbikesam2018 YZ125 for woods & Euclid haul roads in the Coal Region. Probably should have the YZ125X but that's not what the local dealership had.
Oh nice, yeah big fan of the YZ125. We love our YZ125X.
Fx all day but you can't get yams!!
What was that ktm In the end Iâm interested đ
đ
Where is the 250X??
One of these days I would love to get another one...
Honda only
Why Honda only?
yz250fx is slow as F**, definitely not getting either one of these.
what bike you going to get?
@@dirtbikesam I owned a yz250fx. It was dirt bike number 45 or 46 for me. I love the engineering and the design. Hands down the easiest bike to work on, and the most well-thought-out. They are overbuilt like a tank, but they are slow. I would love to try the crf250rx. The KTM 250 is a lot faster for me than the yz250fx. Ultimately, the 350's are the optimal power/weight for me and what I normally ride.
