YZ250X vs KTM 250 XC first impressions.
Просмотров 40 тыс.3 года назад
I’ve been riding KTM 250 XC for 6 years. This is my first impression of the 2022 YZ250X after getting the bike this summer. Hope the information is helpful if you are looking at one of these bikes. Both bikes are awesome and a lot of fun with some small differences.
FLY Racing Snowmobile Gear
Просмотров 1974 года назад
The new FLY Racing Incline gear is hands down the most comfortable gear I have ever ridden in. It feels light weight and easy to move in. After thousands of miles in it last year it is in great shape and kept me warm and dry in all conditions. The helmet and goggle combination is fantastic I have been extremely pleased with FLY’s Zone Snow Goggles! Check out all the gear at www.flyracing.com

A quick review of some great options for your kids or wife. In this video we review a 2019 Polaris 600 AXYS RMK, a 2020 Polaris EVO RMK (with an AXYS front end, dropped rear skid, and a new throttle flipper to allow full throttle), a 2020 Arctic Cat ZR 200, and a Polaris 120 (with a 200 cc Honda motor). Hope this helps you decide what sled is best for your kids or wife. If you have any question...

    Grrat video, one huge power delivery difference is the non counter balanced yz motor . A counter balancer is like a big fly wheel weight. One reason i really like the 12 to 16 ktm motors they are very light and rev quick.

    People like to bag on the 2006 chassis without acknowledging that it is 30 years of Japanese refinement. The rider triangle, stability and balance of the Yamaha have felt like home from the minute your push it around the garage.

    • @517keith
      @517keith 2 года назад

      I’m probably not the best person to ask because I’m only 5’8”. Seat height on both these bikes was very similar, the Yamaha is just a touch taller. The rider triangle might be just a bit more roomy on the KTM for a bigger guy.

    Great review! I had a 2019 250X and sold it to buy a motocross bike. I wish I still had it because it was so much fun and easy to ride as in your video. I like the look of the 2023 plastic and I will be buying one soon after they hit the floor.I have a 2021 250FX that I use for off road but I really miss the 2 stroke.

  • @PBstx1100
    @PBstx1100 2 года назад

    I also switched from a KTM 2t to a 2020 YZx. I’m just a weekend warrior. The simplicity of the YZ is so fun. It’s just an old school 2t but it feels super crisp. The KTMs are precision woods weapons but the YZ puts a big smile on your face with how raw it is. Only thing that i need to fix is the vibration for longer rides. It vibrates through the bars way more then my KTM did. Going to try rubber mounted bars this fall.

    • @wdsracer

  • @brianhardy1812

    Great review! I've owned a late model YZ 250 but not the X. The X seems like a great package for the woods rider. I own a 2018 KTM 300XC currently but that X looks like so much fun.

  • @PBmxer

    • @northerntoyota7584
      @northerntoyota7584 2 года назад

      Short answer, yes. The changes made to the x are all to make it better in the trails

    • @517keith

      Same as Northern Toyota said, yes the x is significantly better on the trails.

    @PennsylvaniaEnduroRiding 2 года назад

    I had the opportunity to ride a KTM 250 XC, XCW and yzX all in a row . They definitely all felt slightly different, but upon my return, my consensus was that the YzX was CAPITAL F-U-N !!!

  • @mortkb
    @mortkb 2 года назад

    Curious if you did any jetting changes. Sounds like is is sputtering down low which is not a big deal but doesn't sound clean down low. When it revs out it seems to clean out quick but that low end sputter would be something I would want to fix.

    • @517keith
      @517keith 2 года назад

      Yes I made jetting changes since the lowest I typically ride is 5,000 feet. This was up at around 8,500 feet so it was a little rich on the bottom end.

  • @oregonskate
    @oregonskate 2 года назад

    Trading in my 450fx soon. Thinking of the these two bikes or a 250xcf. Do you think the 250x is better overall? any issues?

    • @517keith
      @517keith 2 года назад

      I have had no issues with the bike at all and I absolutely love it. The KTM is a great bike too. If you are comparing to an XCF it is kind of apples to oranges though, the first thing you need to decide is if you want to go 4-stroke or 2-stroke, they are both good, just different.

  • @scottrugenstein7034
    @scottrugenstein7034 2 года назад

    I have been on KTM’s since 1992. This year I jumped ship to a 2022 YZ250X. Wow! Amazing bike in stock form. Over 2 grand cheaper out the door and the best stock suspension I’ve ever been on. Set the sag and go. I race HS and enduro in Indiana and my first 250 ever. I’ve had open class bikes and a couple of 200’s. This engine is very similar to a 300. Another plus is there are countless mods and upgrades that are readily available for this bike. And very little changes over the last few years. Couple of aftermarket rE starts available if that’s your thing. I do not miss the E start, but if I do I will put a Rekluse auto clutch in it. Love it can’t say enough about it. Blue is the new orange.

    • @thatfast3002

      300 is a square motor bore and stroke so the 250 by design is more prone to vibration

    @Jimmy_Watt 3 года назад

    I just went the total opposite direction from you. I am selling my decked out woods YZ250, and just bought a Gas Gas. I am also 5'9", 165, and the YZ feels long. Really just physically large. I find that I am more confident in the nasty gnar on the Austrian bike. The brakes, clutch, and electric start bring it together for me. I do love the Yamaha engine and KYB fork. Happy trails.

    • @PBstx1100
      @PBstx1100 2 года назад

      Yea it’s definitely preference. I went with the YZ over the KTM because the KTM felt to cramped. I had to cut the bars down a few inches on the YZ but I feel more comfortable moving around the cockpit of the YZ.
