Probably one of the best bikes out there and be my next bike. I have the fe350, both are incredible especially with some Shinko cheaters, amazing tires for rocky areas
Thanks for a decent review
Thanks for this review! I'm in a similar situation as you coming from major MTB background and you nailed some of the things I struggle with on my Beta 390 - engine braking, clutch, and brake feel along with the Sachs suspension! This nearly solidifies my decision on needing to go this route. Cheers!
This bike is likely everything you’re looking for. Sounds like we are the same. I’m going to be taking it on a 4 day single track trip in the next week or so. This bike is so plush light and smooth, I can’t wait.
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel how do you like the WP suspension? I really don't get along with the Sachs on my Beta. I've historically been very picky on my suspension and it is nearly a deal-breaker for me. I've been eyeballing a Sherco particularly since it has a dialed KYB setup from everything I've read.
My goodness that thing can tractor up a hill, sounds like we are close to the same in weight and height. I had a 2020 TE250i and got rid of it, it was my first two stroke in almost 20 years and it was not what I thought it would be (I was a KTM 520/500 rider for that time). I wanted lower temps (we were living in Havasu) while riding on the bike so I found a 250 there wasn't a 300 in the USA, so I settled. The handling on that bike was just wow good, and I think you have a real winner there.
I agree with you on tires, people picking on that are just, dude they're tires get different ones. I will say that front tire is REALLY good up in Utah in the Bryce Canyon area and the Swell area. But in Havasu it was meh in the kitty litter stuff.
KTM has a wire under the tank that you can plug into the "map" switch and mount on the handlebars. You just have to install a switch and connect the wire. I did mine and now it's the same as the Huski, Just FYI to everyone out there.
Its funny, found your channel right after I bought my KTM 790 adv R and now (shortly) I am getting Husky TE 300i, just debating between 2022 or wait for 2023 model..... nice overview, Thank you, V!
Two great motorcycles! I still think the 790 ( or now 890 ) is the best “serious” off road adventure bike out there. Good luck on your decision. Either way, you’re going to love it 🤙
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel Already have almost for 2 years 790 like you but now I am buying Husky TE 300....
Yeah sorry, meant the decision between the 2022 or 2023 te300i 👍
its not the tire, its the fork length and soft suspension on the bike that makes it not like sand. I have a 20 te and it took a while for me to figure it out.
Nice bike
I know its apple to oranges but I'm thinking of trading FE350 for this how would they compare? Should I expect the TE300 to be more snappy? Good to see you in Johnson Valley. I'm in Yucca and just trail ride
I heard Kennedy Meadows… we’re you able to get this stickered? I’m getting a 24 TE250 this week
Would love to see some more videos of this bike and what you do with this bike I’m looking to get that exact bike and specifically what you do with the handle bars if you raise them. I’m 6,4 219lbs without gear and I hate standing up because it kills my lower back.
I’m still needing to get the bars moved up and forward. Just had it out in Utah and it reminded me I haven’t taken care of it yet, keep ya posted!
Yamaha AutoLube 2-stroke oil injection was available in 1966, Maybe even before that.
Forgot to say…, really enjoy your vids, esp. the Beta footage in Kennedy Meadows
We’ll be back this year for sure!
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel my first intro video was your initial ride on 790 Adventure R. Good points on tight-fisted manufacturers with CC and other misc add-ons
It's not really Kennedy Meadows it is USFS Kern Plateau and you can stage at Fish Creek or Troy Meadow CG if you approach off of US395. Sign on US395 says Kennedy Meadows but that area is wilderness PCT runs through there. Ride Bean. Be a man.
Question for you or anyone else riding a 300 tpi. What's the maximum range you have achieved? I need to get about 85 miles to reach fuel.
Thanks.
I am hearing these are only getting 40-50 miles per tank of fuel! You may need a bigger tank or carry a fuel bladder.
Good review, wish I had more chunky rock like that to ride in the midwest. Check out Rich Larson on IRC tire's channel, he has a great series breaking down the individual techniques to build muscle memory and confidence in technical terrain. Not having the correct ergonomics for your tall frame is going to increase static balance difficulty. When I started going really slow (300xcw slipping clutch in 1st) and forcing myself to use good technique I started to grow as a rider. Funny how that works. Looking forward to seeing how you like the TPI in the dunes. If its not enough might look at an Rktek head, that map switch will come in handy.
I'll have to check that out. I do like the slow rocky technical stuff. I need to focus on my standing and balance abilities though. Definitely going to spend some time in the garage getting the ergos dialed!
Great review on your TE! Was the subframe ever a concern when you were buying it? Looking forward to more videos!
It was and wasn’t. I thought about what it would take to break or crack it, and then I realized how I’d be riding it.. lol.. probably not an issue.
Thank you, I’m looking forward to getting more content up on this bike!
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel makes sense. Looking forward to seeing more videos
Thanks for asking and answering this question. ✌🏽
I’ve dropped mine so many times on hill climbs rocks etc and no issues yet
@@cnw-jd9tt that’s good to hear about the subframe not being an issue. Since I wrote this I did bite the bullet and bought one. 22 rockstar 300i looking forward to hitting the trails with it
Where did you get your swing arm covers?
Polisport covers from Rocky Mountain atvmc
Hey man, I'm also 6'4. Does the 300 have enough power, or should I look at a 450? Thanks
What are you looking to use the bike for primary? My beta 500 has tons of power for that wide open desert and sand dune situation. The 300 has a ton of power, but not like the 500. It will be used for trails rocks and single track.
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel More open trails, dont like the technical tight stuff.
@@branttmyhres74 I’d go 450 then. The 300 is plenty powerful, but 450’s live for the open stretches.
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel thanks man!
I'm 64 and considering buying a 2-stroke dirt bike. Should I see a psychiatrist? Or a chiropractor? I can get a discount on acupuncture, maybe that will cure me. Sold my CR500 20 years ago been riding Yamaha 4 strokes for long time. I want a lighter bike. E-start. 300 has as much power as a 450? Just as quick & it will climb the same sand hills. On a dyno the 450 has a couple more HP. If weight is a non-issue I'd go for the 450. If you do extreme enduro get the 300. If you need 100 mph get the 450. And gear it up.
Get bar risers you’ll stand up a lot more
True! Need them for sure
How about the registration fees on that bike?
I honestly don’t recall..
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel trick question…, not registerable in Cali, right? Can’t wait to retire to AZ
CA state sales tax 9.25% in LA County cheaper in some others. $50 /year registration so they can pay cops OT to bust your balls for being too loud. They are supposed to use the $50 to develop riding areas but they suck too much to do that. We have the most evil government people in the history of people they despise dirt bikes and rifles and they lie a lot. Schiff, Pelosi, & Newsome. I'll exclude Feinstein . The worst of the worst, and even worse than that. And they are quite popular, unlike myself. People enjoy seeing others in pain I guess, even if they feel the pain too. I ran into Newsome once. I had to stay 6 feet away. Unexpected WTF moment. He is tall. Maybe 6'4". If he has a husky I'll shit myself.
Are you selling the goose 😱
🤷♂️… haha
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel 😑🤔😂
Betas are best! Wait till you ride my 300 race.
Love my Beta!!
Don't revisit a subject so many times
