I've been with you since the get go, nice to see you nut out some mechanical "know how". Nice to see you just blurt out honesty. That is comforting to hear as only so much praise and BS is believable. Keep having fun, keep it honest and "that's your thing" believable. Nice work captain.

I just picked up new 24 250 XC-W Many KTM dealers here in the DFW metroplex running great deals on new bikes and 0.99% financings

@bikemancody2752 6 ай бұрын

I have about 9 hours on my 24 300 XCW now and i must say, its a fabulous bike. Had a 17 and 21 300 XCW before and they were also good bikes, but the new closed chamber forks have left me with little to be desired left. I always felt with the XPLOR i wasnt really rising a real dirt bike. The new model XACT is confidence inspiring to say the absolute least. I run a 25mm lowering kit on all these 300's i have owned as well and im not super excited about the shorter shock on the 24 300, which is my only real gripe.

TSP {Two Stroke Performance} now offers ECU's with their own custom mapping and a head insert to match for both the XC and XCW that makes substantial performance gains for different types of riding and terrain and if you have an XC you can send your stater in and have it rewound to produce more power for lights and a fan, KTM is still miles ahead of all the other companies in 2 stroke R&D.

Rode a new one the other day... bit dissapointing. Heaps of feedback through the frame, like a 2008. Looks to have gone back to steeper pds angle. Motor falls on it's face above the low end. With TSP mods it'll prob be nice. Also if they update to Billy Bolt's frame next year.

I still only have my 04’ 450 EXC and have no desire to get a newer bike. I use computer fans for the radiator at the moment, I have the ktm fan but it won’t fit with my IMS tank unless I heat gun a recessed spot for it. Still debating on that. Sucks KTM dropped the kickstarter.

On the fuel pickup thing, if you run the bike until it runs out of gas there isn’t any more left that there was in the old petcock bikes. It could be an issue if you were on a smooth road but that’s exactly rare circumstances. I’m on a 2018 now and I don’t know wether to keep it and get a ‘24 or sell.

Normally it’s a gearing difference. KTM thinks rear suspension should be different. Otherwise enduro bikes have softer suspension allowed by the generally slower speeds of enduro. It’s all gray lines as you’re suspecting, especially since people ride MX bikes for enduro and XC and seem to be ok with it.

You never own/ride a bike long enough to "break" them. The normal guy spends $13,000 on a bike and rides it 3,4,5 or more seasons. It's at this point failures start to happen. Not in 7 months of riding the bike 3 times, then giving it away. Sheesh!

Lee is right. I didn’t take it as him being harsh. Kyle does catch the early issues and glaring factory build issues and addresses them. I appreciate that and him pointing out the power difference right away in the xc-w most people weren’t addressing. The long term stuff comes from others. I’ll happily post a long term review of his give away bike. LOL

How long have you watched this channel ? First he rides most bikes a lot by more than 3 or 4 times. Second, he rides with plenty of people who have bikes 2,3 and 4 years old and adds those experiences to his reviews. Third B he tells you “ this is his experience “, not implying anything different…. Based on watching this channel since 2017, Kyle has integrity and is up front about how he tests, forms his opinions. 97% of the bike tests out there are from a day or two of riding.
