Depends what we are talking about. The US hard enduros are very different. Black diamond was difficult but it was only the one race. These races have several races before making it to the main event. The main events would make Black Diamond almost look like child’s play. The qualifiers leading up to the main events usually increase in difficulty as you go. As an example, RORR’s qualifier this year was as difficult as Black Diamond but the main was other worldly. You have to remember, even the amateur classes in the states have some VERY talented riders. They do not compare well to our classes here. This year at TKO it was part of the FIM world hard enduro series, the best of the best in the world were here and they said the main was challenging. Don’t take anything away from what we have here. Black Diamond was awesome and perfect for the skill level in Ontario and Quebec in my opinion.

@@motovalleyenduro oh, i was asking about the qualifier you did! I know the main race at the tko is out of this world.

@@jacobbieler1876 I love the 350. I think it’s an awesome woods bike. I had a 390 but like the 350 engine more. The 390 was a torque monster down low but had nothing up top. For me the 430 and 480 are just too big. I don’t need that size engine in the woods or on the track.

Thanks, between the two of them we got everything lol.

Yeah it was scary for a second. Thanks for watching.

🙏 thanks for watching!

Thanks, great little spot!!

I am not signed up yet but maybe. I don’t live far from there! You going?

Hey thanks for commenting. Can’t wait to rip this thing now. I should have taken a deliberate approach a long time ago. You guys are always great. I was happy to meet you guys at TKO a couple of years ago. Still wear my shirt all the time 🫡

Amazing lol. Thanks! It’s working perfectly now.

No, the Tacoma is gone. Never tried a throttle controller on it. Honestly, reliability yet to be seen, but this is a better truck across all functions. Kills my Tacoma on mileage as well. Tows WAY better and has way more room inside. I am super happy so far.

It always rains when I go 😂

I’ve been twice now!

Indian Ontario. In the middle of nowhere and not hard to get to.

Great trails still but yeah, mx stuff doesn’t seem to have been maintained.

@@motovalleyenduro I believe there was a period where it got "shut down" to public & the odd owners just never did anything to it lol bit of a shame tho, soooo much potential there

I run the Clake on my 300. It will stay on the 300 and yes I like it very much. My 350 has the new diaphragm clutch and is super light and smooth. I don’t think it needs anything. I am also not sure I would pay 1000$ for a Clake even for the 300. Don’t get me wrong, it’s really nice but I got it for pretty much nothing.

@@motovalleyenduro oh wow, I thought they were like $500. I hadn't really priced one just seen videos of and on for years of them

I think it’s great. The prop is much higher quality and it moves the coolant much more efficiently.

Thanks. Old video. Have tried to get better since. 👍

He is on the east coast. I haven’t really found anywhere in Ontario to get work done on them.

I’m not sure yet on rear tire. I really like the Kenda Knarly or Gauntlet. Dunlop AT81ex might be the tire of choice in ON!

Oh yeah, and a mousse for sure. I don’t use tubes for anything other than mx.

@@motovalleyenduro Thanks. I've been running TuBliss for years but I'm starting to think that maybe I should switch to a mousse for Chloe's Kingdom and the Corduroy this year if I do them.

@@motovalleyenduro I hadn't really thought about Kenda as an option. I was thinking of the AT-81EX or IRC VE33S. (The IRC JX-8 would probably perform a little better than the VE33S but not last as long.)

Need more snow than we had for this video as well. I’ve owned a Snowbike and I think more snow would let it carve better. Also, it does take some getting used to. I was only on it a couple of hours. I think there are more videos out now with some riders pushing it a bit more.

I have ridden a Husky 350 and a KTM 350 Factory edition. The KTM felt good, the Husky felt terrible. I have moto’d this bike a few times and the suspension is awesome. It certainly is the bike for higher speed XC racing, GP racing and fast hare scrambles. Not an advanced moto bike but certainly capable up to an intermediate.

Clicked on that link and it showed I had already watched it before lol. Left a comment. Unit stuff seems to be decent. I had an Amazon GC and this seemed like something worth trying.

Great insight! Awesome bikes and a ton of fun.

Not sure what you mean. I have had 4 Betas with not one issue. My 300 has seen 3 seasons racing TKO, TLR, The Corduroy Enduro, etc and has done better than many on other brands. To each their own I guess. I guess I could buy an Austrian bike and snap subframes or have coolant hoses leak or have TPI modules get broken etc etc 😂

It's not designed for hunting.

I have found it to be very smooth. I can ride it back to back with my 300 and do not have to recalibrate my riding. Terrific bike!

Thank you 🙏!🙌

I noticed the same thing. The rear end just tracks straight through everything. Thanks for the comment!

I will try this for sure. I did notice I had no flameouts in my other videos where I was deliberately testing the TC.

Zeta combined with BRP top clamp mounts. They replace the top clamp for the handlebar mount.

Than you. Appreciate the comment and thanks for watching.

No really? Thank you so much!! Saved me! I did much better this year!

Stock sprocket which is a 13. 50 in rear. I have not noticed a major issue. I test rode 2 différent Husky 4Ts at the Cord and I wouldn’t trade my Beta for either. Better suspension and nowhere near as difficult to ride in the woods. I’ve owned a 390 as well and both are great woods bikes.

@motovalleyenduro funny you mention the 390, i haven't rode either, and im trying to pick between the 350 an 390, i like the low down power of the 390 but want the lightest feeling bike possible 350, whats ur opinion when it come too the 2? Im coming off a ktm450

@@00DELAMERE00it is a hard choice. The 390 was a tractor and I personally found it very difficult to stall. It would lug really low. The 350 is a bit higher strung but still a great bike. My 390 was the RR as well and for my riding I can say the KYB on the 350 is way better for me. The new diaphragm clutches on the new ones are also amazingly light. I think if I only had one bike and needed it to do everything I’d go for the 390. I bought the 350 to compliment my 300 and I race both and try to ride pretty aggressively.

@@motovalleyenduro thanks, is there a noticeable difference in weight???

@@00DELAMERE00 I didn’t own the bikes back to back so it would be hard to say for sure. I can say that I thought my 390 was a wicked single track bike though.

It really did. I was happy to have ridden it and experimented with some different lines.
