What did you think of and your feedback on the 21.5 SXF FE?

Nice review👍🏼 I’m a 10.5 shoe (Merrell), I’ve heard Gaerne runs a tad big, would you recommend an 11 or a 10 in the SG?

As a slow vet getting back into it, would a newer de-tuned yz450f be too much? The idea of slowing down a 450 sounds appealing. Or just get a yz250f like everyone else and their grandmother.

Mike Brown was owning everyone on his 350 at Loretta’s. Lol

Yeah I’m slowly starting to realize USEABLE power is better than raw power. I have a kx450 right now and I’m heavily considering going to a new ktm350sxf. I just don’t need the power of a 450 and if I’m being honest I’m not good enough to ride one the way they should be ridden.

I’ve got a 2024 KTM 350XW-F and love this trail bike.

Who uses a torque wrench on a drain bolt in fact about the only thing a good mechanic needs to use a torque wrench for on a dirtbike is maybe the head and rod bolts

I was a B rider when I stopped riding 12 or so years ago I only enjoyed riding 250s, always felt like I was hanging on for dear life. Coming back into the sport weighing 30-40 LBS more than I did, I’m not sure a 250 will be enough. I was considering a 350 but you’ve got me questioning it now lol

Hard to trust a guys opinion thats speeds up his videos🥴🤣

i dont get it why is it not sent back to the dealer for warranty ?

Just get a honda people lol...

Why did u go to the Yamaha 450 and not a ktm?

I have been riding in SG12's for 10 years now (same pair of boots!), but they are going to need replacing soon. Today I found a pair of 12's on sale for half price.. however I always imagined I would spring for the 22's when the time came to buy a new set. The wider toe box reported in the 22's has me very interested, along with easier shifting. My 12's can be tough to shift in, especially when I'm on my dual sport and on the seat. I think I should probably go for the SG22's... How have your 22's been since you posted this video?

Would you rather have the KTM Connectivity Unit or is it worth it in your opinion and enough difference to go with a Vortex ECU for a 2023 or newer KTM 450? Curious on your opinion…..

Too bad for the prices of these bikes motocross is getting ridiculous

Hi ive recently bought a 24 350 sxf with 3.8 hours on it have i made a mistake as ride a 22 450 sxf at mo ...im 56 ....vet rider ....not ridden 350 yet but have watched your video ...is it a good bike Cheers

I was too poor and couldn't afford these toys growing up in the 80’s but I do enjoy others doing it. -Gold wing rider-

Lmao I been riding in the more mellow map this hole time I have to switch it and see the difference lmao 🤣 I thought it was in the hot map was the white one

i have the same problem!!! my right foot is bigger ahhaha i will have to order another pair 1 size up

Mike Brown use one to great effect.

I like the KTM 250SXF Factory addition , But I ride and race a 22 YZ450F now and I end up adding the Justin Barcia mapping because I felt it to be too mild in the factory map. No I'm not getting rid of my 450 but rather buy a smaller bike for GPs..

Ok, thank you so much for the quick response. Looks like such a fun track to ride.

Can anyone please tell me the name of this track and where it is in Massachusetts.

I have wider feet, and have the SG12's in a size 10 (and also wear the Altra running shoes). My size in the SG12's, I have gotten the outer toe rubbing issue, as you described in one of your earlier replies... I'm curious with the SG22's if I should stick with the same size 10's, they will provide enough of that relief in the toe box compared to the SG12's? Or would it be recommended to go a half size up? Unfortunately, there is no place near me that stocks these things to try on, so i'm having to do the gamble of the online order.

So what are your tbi issues you experiences? I have a 2023 300xc i ride on my track and for the last 25 hours it has had a random bog i cant get rid of, or the dealer, it started around 20 hours. I won’t get into all the stuff ive done to try to get rid of it but if you google tbi and random bog I will probably be at the top. It finally got me on a small double and i broke 2 ribs and got my spleen 4 weeks ago, i am at this point positive the tbi is not safe for track use. After 25 years of ktm and Ktm response to this i am done with them for a wile, but really wanted to try a 350. Man, all i can think of now is committing to a jump and that feeling of twisting the throttle and nothing. Very gun shy of ktm all around… Holy crap, on edit i just found your other video. Riff…it busted me up bad. 1.5 hour ambulance ride. My bike runs extremely well until the bog hits..here is the stuff I’ve done just as an fyi. -Replaced inline fuel filter multiple times -Replaced fuel pump pick up filter($60) -Tested old fuel pump(48psi) and replaced with new fuel pump, with part number ending in 200(supposedly updated)($275) -stripped down and checked wire harness, also with bike running trying to move wires to find short. -ended up cutting open wire harness and checking for shorts on main trunk and throttle body branch. Looked beautiful in there. Everything under new electrical tape has been looked at. -pulled all connections looking for issues -changed spark plug 3 times, plugs always looked good, never fouled one, currently tried a 7 range plug.($25) -had dealer update software and look for codes, there were none($130) -did top end(used vortex oem piston)and pulled and cleaned power valve at 37 hr per ktm customer service advice($350). Old rings still measured the same ring gap as new ones. Used .62mm base gasket. -Set power valve to 48mm(z dimension) -Adjusted tps to .400 volts, reset tps with wake up connector and 3 throttle twists -recalibrated power valve on both maps multiple time -changed crank case sensor twice, even used sealant on last one to be sure wasn’t leaking($120) -current compression is 208 psi, was 196 before top end at 37hr -current deck height is between 0.00 and .008, squish is like 2.15 -checked stator… .9 ohms, 1.2 ohms hot. -pulled injectors inspected and cleaned externally -tried different fuels, one was an ethanol free 93 octane

hi ! Please do you think a 450 is too heavy for a 130lbs rider!? i'm tired of reving little bike. 30 years old and 10 years experience now

Which has the most shifting/braking flexibility?

I love my 2024 ktm 350xcf. Im 6'1" 255 lbs. I used to race 250 strokes back in the day. This thing lacks power nowhere! It has more power than any 2 stroke 250 ive ever ridden. Its only 5 hp less than the 450 xcf at 51 hp. Thing is a beast

I run 50:1 in mine just because I don't trust the 60:1. And I'll probably upgrade the piston when it needs it

💀

That was Haidens way of saluting all the patriots ! I liked it !

What’s with you guys on here saying age doesn’t matter at all, are you all smoking crack??? Of course age matters, everyone knows that.

im in this clip💪

Hello i live in ivory coast and My friend got the sx 250 2023 all new last year. The first day the bike started to bug ! He has tried everything until now, the bike is still bugging! Very dangerous ! Sometimes the bike works et sundenly start to bug! He is selling it and doesnt want to buy a 2 Stroke injection anymore! I also wanted to buy the 300 sx but because of that I am buying a 250 Yz !

There’s a channel that’s called fast coach Toby and he came up with a way to fix the peg mounts

Unreal talent! 👍👌

Great video and info. Been riding a 250xc at the local track and in the woods. I do love that bike. But thinking of getting a dedicated MX bike. 5’11” 200lbs, 56yo. Is that a public track? And where is it? Looks fun and mellow.

If you're in shape age doesn't matter at all!!

@Moto-X amazing video & a great message One question imagine the 450 made a free roll mood that stops engine braking or minimises it . Then Two stroke will lose the one thing that makes 2 strokes fun.🫨 Funny fact is if the smokers rage in the comments imagine a 450 with only a rear brake no engine braking 🫣

shows you can make it if you try hard anoth

Age is not a factor. Health is the only factor

Something else i think could be effecting us guys that run xc’s on mx track is the tank. When fuel level gets close to the top of the wings there is high probability we are sucking air at times. Trail riders will not really suffer from this. Just a terrible tank design.

Yes, mine is…here is my experience so far.. Bike is a 2023 300xc, VBKXCP233PM322***, bought last November(2023), didnt start riding until march of 2024. All stock. At 25hr the bike started to bog randomly(approximately may 3). Bog just happens, usually very subtle, usually after at least 1/2 hour of riding. I ride on a small Mx track with several jumps, 70’ being the biggest. I ride moderately on track but aggressively on straight aways. Bike never dies, just wont accept throttle, usually only for a few seconds but has happened a couple of times where I could stop and try to rev it but it won’t accept throttle, just hear throttle body open. Then it’s fine for a bit. It doesn’t act like it’s fouling out and has never fouled a plug. Does not seem like a short, seems like a fuel delivery issue. I do not ride in mud or pressure wash, and when I do wash it it’s with a shower setting on hose with a rag and bucket of soap. Issue started at 25 hr, now has 44hr, in that time i have done these things, the list is not exactly in the order i did them… -Replaced inline fuel filter multiple times -Replaced fuel pump pick up filter($60) -Tested old fuel pump(48psi) and replaced with new fuel pump, with part number ending in 200(supposedly updated)($275) -stripped down and checked wire harness, also with bike running trying to move wires to find short. -ended up cutting open wire harness and checking for shorts on main trunk. Looked beautiful in there. -pulled all connections looking for issues -changed spark plug 3 times, plugs always looked good, never fouled one, currently tried a 7 range plug.($25) -had dealer update software and look for codes, there were none($130) -did top end(used vortex oem piston)and pulled and cleaned power valve at 37 hr per ktm customer service advice($350) -Set power valve to 48mm(z dimension) -Adjusted tps to .400 volts, reset tps with wake up connector and 3 throttle twists -recalibrated power valve on both maps multiple time -changed crank case sensor twice, even used sealant on last one to be sure wasn’t leaking($120) -current compression is 208 psi, was 196 before top end at 37hr -current deck height is between 0.00 and .008, squish is like 2.12 -tried different fuels, one was an ethanol free 93 octane -unplugged battery(no ideal why) -Bike wrecked me, took to dealer(6/27/24) and this time it had 2 stored codes- P012211 throttle grip position sensor A short to ground p140312 exhaust valve short to battery… Some are saying codes could be from unhooking stuff during top end. Which would make sense since it been doing this for 20 hours and at 15hr there were no codes. I’ve spent over $1000 in parts and dealer service and many hours trying to find this issue. Curremtly I’m down with 2 broken ribs and a lacerated spleen because the bike bogged on a small jump 4 days ago(6/23/24) after another failed attempt to correct it. Ktm and the ktm dealer said this will have to be replicated when it’s hooked up or they cant find the issue. That is not something that a dealer is set up to do. I cant sell this bike because it’s dangerous and has no solution in sight. Dealer is hesitant on me proceeding with them repairing because digging into will be expensive, and a good chance problem will not be cured. I have attempted many repairs and Guinea pigged this bike until it ultimately injured me. I had another dealer tell me that after all the diagnostics I’ve done there really isn’t much they can do. I do understand my current dealers hesitation as a failed repair puts me in danger. I need help with this situation.

Che fenomeno!😍🔝

Haiden should teach Max how to do that😮🎉

BUT he doesn't make it this time

If you ride every week you will always be competitive

Git R Done 💪

Awesome. 🎉

This is mad bike skill in top level
