2023 Husqvarna TX300 Heritage Edition Review: Day 1 Thoughts
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 апр 2023
- Riding a few laps on an old school moto track discussing my new 2023 Husqvarna TX300 Heritage Edition...it's 1983 all over again! I have always liked the new 2023 styling and the Heritage Edition models. Compared to the '23 KTM 300XC the '23 Husky radiator shrouds are smaller and don't extend as far forward. The Husky front fender is over 30mm narrower - again giving a smaller impression up front. The Husky seat is thinner which gives a lower overall seat height. I like the bend of the Pro Taper handlebars. From the seat and while riding all these subtle changes add up and give the '23 TX300 a smaller and more compact feel up front. It is noticeable. The TX300 air intake is on the left side cover so it has a little less intake noise and is more protected from the elements compared to the under the seat intake on the KTM 300XC. I will get some back to back rides with the '23 TX300 and '23 300XC and '23 Beta 300 Race Edition soon...stay tuned!
More detailed thoughts on the engine and chassis below....
The all new 300 TBI engine with electronic power valve and throttle body fuel injections sets the bar for big power and strong linear partial throttle response. With a white map (smoother power) and green map (quicker RPM build and more power up top) it is easy to change the character of the engine with the push of a button. This engine is fast and fun to ride with almost no vibration. It runs clean with Motorex 2-stroke oil mixed at 60:1 and premium pump gas.
The chassis is a great combination of cornering and stability at speed with excellent ergos and the usual strong Brembo brakes. The stock AER forks work well especially after about 4~5 hours and if you take the time to dial in fork pressure and clicker settings for different conditions and rider weights. For off road riding I prefer the Comfort settings (and perhaps a click or two softer) in the forks and shock. The stock rear shock takes about 4~6 hours to break in and works well. I run clickers in the 18~20 range with HSC about 2.5 out. The stock 4.2 spring is a little soft for my 6'2" 190lb body and I have a 4.5 spring to install but the bike has been work so well I have little motivation to change it.
Here is my 2023 KTM 300XC "Does it All" review from last fall....
• 2023 KTM 300XC Does it...
love the Husqvarna! I got myself a 2017 FE 350 and she's sweet!
I had a 2017 Husky FX350 - very fun bike!
The retro look is so simple but soo good looking!
Thanks - I really like the retro look too!
Beautiful bike! Best of luck with it!
Thanks!
Hope you keep that bike a long time, I think it will be a classic one day!
The Heritage Edition looks classic today! I rarely keep bikes very long though I do have a 2006 RM250 Ricky Carmichael replica!
Thanks for the upload!
Thanks for watching!
Bike sounds awesome
BRAAAPPPP!
You got one! Awesome! I haven’t got to ride mine a lot yet- I’m not sure why but I got 2 flat tires in one day. Guess the factory tubes aren’t cut out for the Arizona desert. Any recommendations on tubes?
Really enjoying my '23 TX300 Heritage Edition! Yes the OEM inner tubes are thin and lightweight and I usually run 14~15 psi pressure or I get pinch flats. I think any of the heavy duty inner tubes are more resistant to flats though some riders will notice the extra weight and rotational inertia of the wheels with HD tubes installed.
Sounds great, looks good too. I really like the narrow shrouds and lower seat height.
Yes this TX300 runs strong and I like the Husky styling. The small differences on the Husky are noticeable when riding it back to back with the 23 KTM 300 TBI
@@mxengineer1 could you list those differences for future reference please?
@@tonn333 Basically plastic styling. The front edge of the Husky radiator shrouds are smaller and do not extend as forward as the new '23 KTM radiator shrouds. The Husky front fender has a narrower width and simpler shape. The Husky seat is about 15mm thinner foam height. All of these add up and are noticeable as soon as you sit on the bike and while in motion - gives the Husky a slightly smaller feel. These differences are not performance related - just styling and ergos
@@mxengineer1 thank you!
What's your personal preference, 2 smoke or four?
Man!!! Do I just LOVE the look of that bike!!! I'm 52 yrs old so possibly a touch older than you (maybe?) but I just love the old school look of that bike!!! I really wish they made ALL the Huskies like this. For the record, I despise the colors of the new Huskies with that dull grey and neon yellow....just terrible! LMAO This Heritage has proper color yellow and I love the blue (especially the seat) as well! Great bike!!!
The latest grey/flo yellow colors of the 23 Husky models are polarizing: not sure why they go with with that color combo though the metallic blue frame color looks pretty good in person. I also really like the overall look of the Husky Heritage models....its 1983 all over again!
@@mxengineer1 Yep! Nothing like going back to the 80's!!! I'd buy it for the nostalgia alone.
Great looking bike!
It's 1983 again!
Do you happen you know anything about TM Racing bikes? I'm interested especially in TM EN 300 ES Fi 2T.
Sadly none of my friends own a TM motorcycle. I would really like to ride a TM 300 2-stroke...carb or fuel injected. I am very curious how those bikes work. Have you ridden one?
@@mxengineer1 I haven't ridden one. I'm considering what to buy and this one is up there.
What's a good woods/xc bike for a novice rider? I haven't been on a bike in years, thinking of going back to 2 wheels. 2 stroke or 4 stroke is fine
I really like having a 300 smoker and 350 thumper in my garage....
The KTM 300XC is very capable... ruclips.net/video/VL5NPXdHbjc/видео.html
And so is the KTM 350XCF...ruclips.net/video/GQaFOG2yr6s/видео.html
Plenty of back to back reviews on my channel of different bikes that should give you some insights in how they work for a real world rider (me!)
How many bikes do you own?
I got a 23 tx300 too. Not heritage edition but they both look nice. Great bikes!
A fellow '23 TX300 owner ! 👍 The '23 TX300 is my latest bike and I really like it
How the power compare to your 300rr RE? Seem to run very crisp
The 300 TBI engine in the '23 KTM/Husky 300 XC/TX is very responsive and quick while the Beta 300RE engine builds RPM's more slowly with a full flywheel feel and is just so easy to ride. Both very effective - just depends on what character you prefer. I've done a few back to back rides with the 300XC and 300RE...here is one of them...

I have a question I weigh 75kg can I ride a ktm 250sxf??
Riding skill is more important than weight in determining if you can (or should) be riding a certain model of motorcycle. Talk to a local motorcycle dealer (KTM one might be best) and see what their recommendation is on bikes for you. 75kg is perhaps near the target rider weight for a bike like the KTM 250SXF
@@mxengineer1 I have alot of skill on dirtbikes I ride a ktm 150 just wondering if my weight is enough for a ktm 250sxf to ride on
What's the sprocket sizes?
The rear is a 49T and I think(!!) the countershaft is 14T...stock as delivered and feel no need to change
Husky or beta
I prefer the styling and lines of the Husky along with the slightly lower seat and the look of the Heritage models so the slight edge goes to the Husky...now if the KTM came with an orange frame and the Red Bull factory graphics...maybe the 2024 Erzberg?
