🚴‍♂️ Honest CRF300L Rally Long-Term Review: 43,000 Miles from USA (Ohio) to Brazil - Uruguay

Nothing in this video is sponsored. I paid for everything myself. Absolutely nothing was given to me or discounted. This is a real review from a real person.
Most people won't see any problems with the CRF 300L until 30,000 plus miles. Most reviewers will never ride that much. They think everything is fine because the motorcycle they are reviewing is basically new.

Welcome to my ultimate long-term review of the Honda CRF300L Rally! After 43,000 miles of unforgettable adventure, starting in Ohio, USA, and taking me all the way to Brazil—and now just outside Montevideo, Uruguay—this motorcycle has been through it all. From smooth highways to rugged trails, scorching deserts to freezing mountain passes, this bike has been my companion.

In this video, I dive deep into the good, the bad, and the unexpected challenges of owning and riding the CRF300L Rally over such an epic distance. Here’s what I’ll cover:

✅ Reliability & Performance: Can Honda live up to its bulletproof reputation? How did the bike handle crashes, high altitudes, and daily abuse?
🔧 Maintenance & Repairs: Real-world insights into oil changes, chain and sprocket wear, and what happens when parts break down in remote locations.
⚙️ Upgrades & Mods: The best (and worst) modifications I made, including handguards, bash plates, suspension upgrades, and luggage systems.
🛤️ Off-Road and Touring Capabilities: How the CRF300L performs on dirt roads, sand, and hills—and why it’s a dual-sport you should consider for adventure riding.
💬 Who It’s For: Is the CRF300L Rally the right bike for beginners, intermediate riders, or seasoned adventurers? What are the alternatives if you’re planning an international journey?

From tire choices to the joys and frustrations of the slipper clutch, I don’t hold anything back in this honest, no-nonsense review. I even share my thoughts on why I might not choose this bike again for a future trip, despite all the amazing memories it’s helped create.

Whether you’re a beginner looking to start your motorcycle journey or an experienced rider curious about taking a smaller bike on a big adventure, this video will give you everything you need to know about the CRF300L Rally.
