KTM 300 I think I want one.

**moab mark** · 10-03-2012, 05:57 PM

I think I rode my next bike. We did the Bear Lake loop again today and we had a couple of 300's there. Light, nimble and lugs like a 4 stroke wick the throttle and you better hold on. Absolute dream to ride. Made my WR 450 feel extremely heavy. One surprising problem though, one of the 300's boiled over and the other was extremely hot on the steep single track climbing out of Bloomington Canyon (Dry Canyon Trail). None of the 4 strokes seemed very warm? Rode one out of Snowslide and it pulls like a race horse. Impressive rides. If you only didn't have to deal with the mixed fuel problem. But after today I may be willing to put up with it.

They are the new thing for sure. Actually the old thing now returning. I'm saving my money for the Husa TE300. Pretty close to the same thing. I'd love to ride either.

That new 300 is fuel injected with an electric start right? T-2? Or too dam smokey for the tree huggers and our future?

Oh sorry what happened? Did I just post some pics...

**Mtnseeker1** · 10-03-2012, 07:46 PM

So just what is the diff.?
You know Besides color and price?

**Mtnseeker1** · 10-03-2012, 07:48 PM

And fuel capacity

**Mtnseeker1** · 10-03-2012, 07:49 PM

Those euro guys sure don't ride very far do they.

**Mtnseeker1** · 10-03-2012, 07:51 PM

Now I may not kill for one but rest assured I will help you get what ever one you want to the top.

**Mtnseeker1** · 10-03-2012, 08:01 PM

I love the smell of two strokes and even if I bitch about how they sound just like bees, We all grew up on one or the other and the things they have done with them now is very impressive for sure.
But they have always been quick and nimble if set up tight and just plain fun.

Then came the four strokes with great bottom end power that most latched onto somewere along the line.

Now two's are doing what they never could and at half the weight.

But atlass them dam tree hungin basturds will never understand.

I've got a buddy with one on order out of Montana. TE 300 on the way! And you bet I'll be putting a saddle on it!

That sticker that says Husaberg.

Price isn't much diff I don't think. $8500 for the blue and yellow.

They are different. You have to spend some time reading. Not a bunch, but some. So fast you can stop at the station, fill up and still stay with the group. :D
