    I've been with you since the get go, nice to see you nut out some mechanical "know how". Nice to see you just blurt out honesty. That is comforting to hear as only so much praise and BS is believable. Keep having fun, keep it honest and "that's your thing" believable.
    Nice work captain.

    I have about 9 hours on my 24 300 XCW now and i must say, its a fabulous bike. Had a 17 and 21 300 XCW before and they were also good bikes, but the new closed chamber forks have left me with little to be desired left. I always felt with the XPLOR i wasnt really rising a real dirt bike. The new model XACT is confidence inspiring to say the absolute least. I run a 25mm lowering kit on all these 300's i have owned as well and im not super excited about the shorter shock on the 24 300, which is my only real gripe.

    Kyle,
    Love the videos! I have been riding a KDX200 for years, thinking about a newer bike. If you couldn't swing a new KTM 300 XC-W what year would you look for 2020-24? I understand to look for owner detail, abuse and modifications, but if everything is equal, which year?

  • @robh3267
    @robh3267 9 месяцев назад +24

    TSP {Two Stroke Performance} now offers ECU's with their own custom mapping and a head insert to match for both the XC and XCW that makes substantial performance gains for different types of riding and terrain and if you have an XC you can send your stater in and have it rewound to produce more power for lights and a fan, KTM is still miles ahead of all the other companies in 2 stroke R&D.

    On the fuel pickup thing, if you run the bike until it runs out of gas there isn’t any more left that there was in the old petcock bikes. It could be an issue if you were on a smooth road but that’s exactly rare circumstances. I’m on a 2018 now and I don’t know wether to keep it and get a ‘24 or sell.

      Normally it’s a gearing difference. KTM thinks rear suspension should be different. Otherwise enduro bikes have softer suspension allowed by the generally slower speeds of enduro. It’s all gray lines as you’re suspecting, especially since people ride MX bikes for enduro and XC and seem to be ok with it.

Based on watching this channel since 2017, Kyle has integrity and is up front about how he tests, forms his opinions. 97% of the bike tests out there are from a day or two of riding.
