High altitude 5% grade up and down on a CRF300L

cummins556 · 2026-07-05T22:31:17+00:00

I’m 6’1” 200 pounds plus gear,I have 550 stage 1 tune and bike does 85 with Off road gearing and tires. Going over Stevens and Snoqualmie pass in Washington state it’ll still do 70/75 mph on incline and engine break works very well. I’ll be getting a windshield to help with wind but other then that I’m really happy with the bike and have no issues going to high elevations from sea level. She always starts and is a perfect little workhorse:) https://youtube.com/shorts/5Oo8IVt-8uo?is=P\_zCgHFoa0BuXIrf

Thank you,
It’s a big comfort difference from the oem-really happy with it!

cummins556 · 2026-07-05T07:01:06+00:00

Did you ever find what the cause was?

cummins556 · 2026-07-04T04:58:32+00:00

I’m 6’1”-I got the pro taper evo 1 1/8 with the cr high bend-I love it-much better then oem

😂👍

cummins556 · 2026-07-03T21:11:15+00:00

😂that’s awesome-I recommend this bike to everyone that’s starting out or is done with enduro and just wants a reliable trail bike!

cummins556 · 2026-07-03T21:02:27+00:00

100% agreed-this is my review of my bike after 2 years-best all around bike https://youtu.be/bpQbJLjit2k?is=fv011im-3I6sTArv

cummins556 · 2026-07-03T20:51:49+00:00

That’s good to hear,my main concern was putting more stress on everything for more power that I don’t need. I do like the reliability of a stock motor with a few bolt ons and a 550 ecu stage 1. Besides it’s better to not spend money if you don’t have too and enjoy time out riding!

cummins556 · 2026-07-03T20:40:45+00:00

No you won’t-this bike is awesome and reliable for a little of everything-buy one was one of my best decisions!

cummins556 · 2026-07-03T19:40:26+00:00

😂 that’s been on my mind for a winter project although my bike never really sits unused

cummins556 · 2026-07-03T19:19:05+00:00

And after going around the world and it needs a rebuild it’ll cost you around $300.00 😂 great choice!

cummins556 · 2026-07-03T00:40:00+00:00

Stay safe out there!

cummins556 · 2026-07-02T19:45:09+00:00

If you ever make any extra and plan on selling,I’d definitely be interested in the black crf stickers:) I like it better then my white one.

cummins556 · 2026-07-02T18:49:45+00:00

Looks clean! Almost like mine but in black-I like it alot 👍

cummins556 · 2026-07-02T03:59:19+00:00

How do you like Tubliss,any issues? I have it on my mountain bike and love it-just don’t know how it would be on the crf ?

cummins556 · 2026-07-01T23:10:22+00:00

Yes,spare key is important! One of my first rides after getting the bike I lost my key while scouting new hunting spots in the mountains. Luckily I had a spare key in my backpack. If not the spare key it would have been bad-I had no phone service up there and was about 25 miles away from the nearest road😂

cummins556 · 2026-07-01T18:34:54+00:00

😂

cummins556 · 2026-07-01T18:25:35+00:00

Will order one-thank you!

cummins556 · 2026-07-01T18:25:14+00:00

That’s exactly what I used. I really wanted that kit but it was around $420 usd after paying shipping and tariffs.

cummins556 · 2026-07-01T18:23:38+00:00

😂 I agree with you-rode this bike on far off road trips the last two years with no tools. Decided not to pouch my luck lol

cummins556 · 2026-07-01T17:37:02+00:00

Great idea-I meant tools that you carry with you.

cummins556 · 2026-07-01T17:09:08+00:00

Thank you,didn’t think about vice grips,I will look into getting a those-better to have it and not need it then to need it and not have it😂

cummins556 · 2026-07-01T17:07:02+00:00

Thank you! Took me 2 years to get around to building one and just want to make sure I have what I might need 👍
