  • First ride and review on the 2024 KTM 250 XC-F (thanks ‪@neodirtriders‬ ) with the brand new coil spring forks. The XC-F is a great platform and maybe one of the best options for hare scrambles or enduro riders who love 4 strokes.

      The 250 xc was just too good to show your audience, and the gopro gods knew it.

    Just bought one in October. Awesome bike. The stock exhaust is super loud. We put an Fmf exhaust on and it sounds great. Absolutely the best bike I've ever ridden. Also is great at the track.

      How far could u hear it from with the stock exhaust?

    • @Rick40years
      @Rick40years 9 месяцев назад

      It was very loud. You could probably hear it from a half mile in our neighborhood. The aftermarket pipe brought it down to a normal volume. Also in Colorado a spark arrester is required. So it solved two problems.

    I have a 2017. It's been good for me, getting into xc riding after years off no riding at all. Now, thinking about a xtrainer for greater agility and help with more technical terrain, and ease of riding in general (no pro here). Have u had a chance to compare these bikes, and if so, how different are they? Thanks.

    what do you think would be more enjoyable in a hare scramble scene the 250 xcf or the 250/300xc? Looking to upgrade bikes in the future and have no idea what I want to go with.

    • @ShiftGearsMoto
      @ShiftGearsMoto  4 месяца назад

      for me, the 300 XC, but I prefer 2 strokes in the woods.

    Great vid! Saw your 150xcw vid too.
    How would you compare?? I still cant decide which to go for, and I can’t find anywhere I can test ride them.
    I’m a novice rider, who’ll basically be doing what you’re doing (but slower). A lot of rocky hill tracks too. Often quite steep.
    Any advice at all?!
    Thanks loads!

      Thanks for watching and glad you liked the videos. If you prefer 4 strokes, this is an awesome bike. Great for hare scrambles. If you're riding slow, technical trails (hard enduro) a 2 stroke might be better. 4 strokes are more prone to overheating in the slow stuff (and more work to maintain). The 150 XC-W is an absolute blast to ride, but doesn't have a ton of bottom end for really technical trails and hill climbs. You'll need to be on the pipe. A 250 or 300 2 stroke is a great option if you're looking for an all around woods bike. Hope this helps.

      If I could only pick one bike, I'd go with the 300XC for sure. Most versatile bike and good at everything.
