What can i say after riding Xr's for so many years i finally tried a CRF and well it certainly stands up to the hype...this is the last of the thumpers in this model they said and did it thump the begeesus out of me...an exceptional well grunted machine..10/10
Follow-up · The ride is scary as .... But full of adrenaline as you are basically thrusted along.... The suspension was a bit stiff for my liking.. but it is adjustable which maybe I should have done at first, but the handling was tight but a bit of effort under a braking turn was a work out but overall the adrenaline was exhilarating and well I couldn't wipe the smile of me face for a bit at the end... Overall, an exciting machine..!
Excellent! – One of the best bikes we have purchased. They look good, sound angry with the twin exhaust and feel great to ride! There was a recall on this particular model but Moto Adelaide sorted it out professionally and quickly. All in all, a fantastic bike that we would buy again.

I love it – I have an 03 model, it handles well, is light and powerful. Still looks good for an 11 year old bike. Have seen a few of the 03's drop valves, but have seen more that haven't had a problem. A bit prone to stalling in the bush for inexperienced riders, compared to an XR or something. I love mine. I take it trail riding in all sorts of bush tracks, and also take it to the motocross track, and it handles all of this with ease.
It would take a very good rider to ride this beast to it's full potential. Power!, handling, Needs rego, hehe. If i was going to be really picky, I'd say they should have made the air cleaner easier to remove.
