2023 KTM 250 vs 350 vs 450 - Do you need ALL the power?

There has always been the question of do we need all the power that the modern 450s produce we got all 3 completely stock to test this theory out and the results will shock you!!

Cool vid. So many of these shoot-outs prove that the 350 lays down the fastest lap times and would be the best option to race. The MXA test also showed the same. But you don't see any being raced at the top level. Would be interesting to see Joel race the 350 next year.

[@brisbanemotorcycles]

100% ! the starts were the biggest eye opener for us!!

[@AnthonyRohde]

Great video. It often doesn't feel fast on the 350, but smooth gets it done

[@brisbanemotorcycles]

yep surprised us all!! the 350 was awesome!

[@Rick40years]

Excellent. That answers the question everyone wants to know. Thanks

[@OtisFlint]

The 350s win every single time. This has been done a half dozen times with totally different groups of riders, and 350 wins every shootout. Smooth is fast

[@pauls6909]

It’s funny how they liked the 450 more even though the 350 was better but they wouldn’t admit it.

[@thisaralakmal3949]

Wooow... The performance of three engine capacities can be viewed separately at the same time.

[@patricodonnell9369]

Traction control solves that problem

[@tonygee3284]

Awesome test guys that 350 is impressive
Leave out the music though want to hear the bike

[@brisbanemotorcycles]

Thanks mate, we will take that on board

I think in motorcross, the power matters. I think in bush, trail, enduro, there aint that much difference.

The right bike really comes down to how much you enjoy eating cookies

[@gaphood4211]

Best video by far

[@brisbanemotorcycles]

thanks heaps! James broke his back early Feb but we just managed to film another ep so stay tuned!

[@user-oe8gy8dk8f]

It would be interesting to add the combat wombat to the shoot-out

[@rickejosh1]

What are the riders thoughts on the 350 vs the 450?

[@brisbanemotorcycles]

350 is easier to ride!

[@jetdr]

wish the Japanese would make 350's then we could have a 350 class.

[@brisbanemotorcycles]

would be so good! feel like it’s the best amount of power for close racing

[@patryanlrd666]

Big fan of Joel’s. Would love to see him race the big 450s on a 350 or even a 300smoker, I think the lighter bike would suit his size and strength(SCI taken into consideration) F@$k it put him on a 125smoker. (If I was Joel’s sponsor I would make him try a rear hump seat, I think his SCI has affected him more then he realises)

[@benpearce_2747]

He does race 450s he’s in the pro mx

[@cameronbarrett8862]

A 250 team should offer him a ride, he is way better on a 250.

[@benpearce_2747]

@@cameronbarrett8862 yeah he deserves to be on a team he puts In so much effort aswell and it would be good for the teams because of the following he’s got as well

[@brisbanemotorcycles]

we took your advice ! check out his round of 125 cup at Coolum :)

350 is king
