You asked for it! Here you go. About 3 years ago in 2018, I did a video on my top 10 favorite dirt bikes at that time. Now in 2021, with the number of bikes I've had and tested having doubled, my list is drastically different. As stated in the video, these are simply the bikes that I loved the most and the bikes that made me happy the most while riding them. It's not a list of the bikes that lasted the longest, or had the least issues. It's simple an order of how much they made me love life while riding them.
Only three of the original ten bikes from 2018 remain on this current list. Represented are six 2 strokes, and four 4 strokes. We have bikes from five different manufacturers. We've got 4 KTMs, 2 Yamahas, 2 Betas, a Sherco, and a Kawasaki.
1. 2020/2021 KTM 250 XC
2. 2020/2021 KTM 300 XC-W
3. 2017 KTM 250 XC
4. 2020 Yamaha YZ250FX
5. 2019 Beta 390RR Race
6. 2020 Sherco 300 SEF
7. 2020 Beta 200RR
8. 2021 Kawasaki KX250X
9. 2017 YZ250X
10. 2012 KTM 300 XC-W

I've ridden a 2020 250 XC with RK Tek head and it was a great bike. I just got a KTM 21' 250 SX in December and did a trail conversion on it including RK Tek head, 9 oz Steahly fly wheel weight & Smartcarb 2 and I'm certain it would be considered a much more fun ride than the XC by anyone who threw a leg over it. It's at least several pounds lighter (no TPI, e-start & wiring) and 21' AER forks seem absolutely perfect stock. The engine response and pull in mid range and top end would flat out embarrass any TPI along with much less complexity to have to worry about out on the trail. I think it would be a great bike to do a test on particularly a stock one vs. one set up like mine. It is absolutely the most fun and well running bike I've been on which includes a couple of your bikes mentioned in top 5. Don't take my word for it, buy one and do a conversion to see for yourself!

Good video...and all good bikes. I've been on KTM 250XC's since 2009, initially on a 2010 model, and have been touting (even back then) that the 250XC is the best do-it-all bike. I put over 350 hours on that bike, and absolutely loved it. I did desert riding/racing, technical singletrack, some motocross, and a few GP style races. It can lug down low in the technical stuff, and then will put on the after burners when the terrain opens up. At one point I put on the 300 kit, but didn't like the heavy feel, so shortly afterwards put it back as a 250. I now have the 2019 model...hoping to put a few hundred hours of riding on that one too!

Stock suspension and handling are good also. I seem to like PDS rear suspension better also for traction it gets or feel off road.

I had many bikes over the years, but my most favorite bike, bike I had when I was teenager. Is 2001 CR 250. I found one few years ago, did full rebuild. Only thing is missing is E start, but not for long. When u get dirt bike u set up everything for ur ridding style, handlebars, suspension, tires. So it doesn’t matter what year ur bike is. New or old u will make some changes to bike. And when u been riding 25+ years u will have better list of favorite bikes. If u put all new dirt bikes on list, It’s not much of a list. More like a commercial for KTM and husky. Maybe u haven’t been riding for long time but most people will have this bikes on there list ‘01 CR 250, ‘07 YZ 250, KX450, ‘07 CRF450. This is just few. U should mix it up little, try some old school bikes, and see how they stand against new models and other brands.

Hey Kyle: Thank you for the Videos, I continue to enjoy them as they come out. This is a great video, but part of me thinks that the majority of your viewership are probably not able to afford a brand new KTM300 or 250. Would it be possible to produce a video of a top 10 affordable / Value based bikes? I believe this video would be more beneficial to your audience and myself included. Just my 2 Cents. Keep up the great work. Thanks

I don't thing a used list will work. What's used, 10 hours 100, 500 hours? What level rider was the previous owner, how much did they spent on maintenance? You can get 10 used same type and year bikes and rank them from worse to terrific. I got a SX450F from 2011. I like that bastard because I adapted to the forks, the way it ride. The way it let me ride. I like my bike over newer other brand bikes, friends let me ride on. I was shocked to ride a '18 ktm SX450F and how good that handled compared to my 338 hr 3rd piston bike. After trying I ended up with a hardly used 2020 Husqvarna FC450. It's what you like, people can not do that for you. I hate 2 strokes, I know they are fast but I can't get the speed out of them the way I am used to. But found out that TPI 2 strokes are like 4 strokes (and cost just as much) but like those anyway.

You really should try the 2021 GasGas EC300, I rented one last week with Ready to Ride Rentals and it was awesome!

@@allgutsnoglorywtg not exactly, it has a linkage like a husky TE, but an aluminum subframe like a ktm. I liked it better than my 2020 TE300i

No, the 2021 Reiju MR300 Pro Edition would be better for Kyle. That's still an authentic Gas Gas with the original engineering platform. I mean, he's probably gonna end up reviewing the 2021 KTM-Gas Gas anyway even though Every given Sunday did one, trailbound did one, Rich Larson (IRC) did one, PNW Enduro did one... I mean who else hasn't reviewed the 2021 GG300?? But maybe not... You got the 2021 Sherco SE 300 everyone is salivating over and parts distribution is just getting better. And Reiju dealers are posting up everywhere.... We'll see🤷‍♂️
