In this video I take the maiden voyage on my 2024 KTM 300 XC-W. I cover my likes, dislikes, and convey some of my initial impressions. The bike is completely stock. I haven't even touched the clickers or the sag yet. I'm pretty impressed overall and can't wait to race this enduro bike in a hare scramble with VCHSS. The stiffer closed cartridge XACT forks (compared to the XPLOR fork) are much better for hare scrambles, but honestly might not be as good for proper hard enduro riding. Overall I'm thrilled with the bike and the TBI seems to be great so far. It's quite a bit different from my 350 XC-F I had last year.
Cheers!

I literally just bought this same bike 2 weeks ago. I used to race some super amateur MX back in 1999-2000. I am now getting back into bikes, I love mine, but then again it is head and shoulders above what I had before technologically....
@DEAD-LAST
Nice!!!!! Can't wait to see everyone come March....... going to start putting mine back together this weekend.
@chumpsracing
Sweet bike, can't go wrong with a 300 2 smoker! Can't wait to see you back on the track, keep ripping man!

Awesome review here Thomper. Thanks for the technical insight.
@Dburt86
great vids! One tip with the PDS, run a heavy spring. If you end up feeling a lot of deflection or it seems too stiff, its more then likely too soft a spring packing with a ton of stored energy. Every time i increased the spring rate on mine, it felt more plush and deflected less over logs and things. TBI motors are amazing, enjoy!!!

You should get the TSP high compression head and ECU reflash ! 👍
@TheWhiteOakHomestead
What a bike dude! You're kinda selling me on this guy.
@joshuatebay6182
Class what, just got one too be riding the c40
@OtisFlint
Need to be BraaperBeBraapin now. Yes, the fuel pickup location is a real issue. TBI will be about 20% less range than TPI, but still better than carb.
@stevedouglas1654
Nihilo makes a better start / stop buttons that are separate and they also sell a 2nd start button for a backup 👍
@nickconsin2639
How’s it compare to the 250 model? I’m looking at the TE but info should transfer over for the most part I think.
@doublemeat8799
The mapping switch can be bought as an add on I believe.
@stevedouglas1654
Kyle @ Dirt Bike Channel is giving away a 24 300XC & a 24 300XCW Hard Enduro in January !
@lostinpa-dadenduro7555
What are those coveralls you’re wearing? I was looking for something like those for the colder rides.
@mattwindell1638
Would you say the throttle response is similar to the 350 or is the 350 more “dead” feeling?
@OdysseyOffroad
Awesome video man, I've mentioned it before I would consider getting a bike at some point. The lugging ability (tractor factor) is definitely something I would look for in a bike. never thought a two-stroke would be something that would provide that. For some reason I always thought it would be the opposite. Good info and thanks!
@shawnrobertson513
What brand are those bibs/pants? Does that front pocket become problematic with items in it?
@philipsmith6152
Great review, I did the opposite, went from a 20 300 tpi, to a beta 350 RE with KYB, I prefer the linkage, Why ? because in the fast choppy stuff the PDS dances around too much and isn't as planted and stable as the linkage. fyi I'm a muppet rider, wouldn't even make C class on a good day. 👍
@shaunbean5553
How does the tbi compare in weight to the tpi?.. can you feel the extra weight of the tbi?
@harm97
I just did the opposite and bought the (GasGas) 350f . I don’t like the power of the 24 300xcw as it has no toppend power. The 350f has massive power!
