Have a question for you Sir. Now that I can buy a new KTM 300 XCW and ride it at the parks with the new law that just passed, and you did invite me out for a ride one day, I being 5'7'' tall and 30'' inseam, I was wondering if you where around my height and if you had your 300 lowered or not? I did meet you and your son at Carnegie about 4 or 5 years ago when he had an electric bike and shook his hand and was on one of your videos years ago but I can not remember how tall you were. Thank You! I have right now a BMW 1250 GSA that I ride at Carnegie all the time but when I met you and your son I had a KTM 500 EXC.
Congratulations on the 300XCW! What year is it? Mine is 2019. I love my 300XCW. Are you the person I met at Carnegie at that time? My son still brings up that day often. As for me, I’m 6'2" with a 33" inseam, so that’s my size. Since we met, we’ve hardly been to Carnegie; we mostly ride at Hollister or Metcalf.
@@royusa Yes, you, your son and I think your wife each of us met a few years ago at Carnegie. I am researching the KTM 300 models as they have 4 model's that are XCW but have different names and accessories. I may have to get it lowered 2'' or so so I can get on the thing!
@ericjames Got you, got you. So, good luck on finding 300XCW, then. As far as I know, an XCW has a wider gear ratio than an XC. I have never used 1st gear, which is too low for me. 😁
@@royusa Found one in Livermore but still doing some research. Some have mentioned going from a 13 tooth counter sprocket to a 12. What is your gearing? I think it is 13/45? Oh and looking at videos for short riders! 😆
Nice job Daniel!!
Thank you!

@ericjames I think my sprockets are 13/50. It's like a rocket.
