2-Stroke vs 4-Stroke, Husqvarna TE 300 I vs KTM 500 exc-f. It is getting real!

It is getting real now...The more I ride the 2-stroke the more I fall in love with it. I find that the Husqvarna and the KTM have their own purpose, their own likes and dislikes. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and it's not the answer I was expecting.

Awesome video.. I’ve been riding the KTM 500 for three years now and love the bike. Also just picked up 2024 Husky 300 tbi. Im excited to get back on a 2S, but I’m struggling to sell the 500.. the 500 does so many things well.. I need more time on the 300, just flashed the ECU and it rips now. I think I need both bikes 😂.. thanks for your videos!

I bought a 24 KTM 250 XCW. Almost bought the street legal EXC-F. I made my 250 street legal. Took 3 months but worth it. 2 stroke is better for me.

So the takeaway here is…no two bikes are exactly alike. Well done.

you can pry my 500 from my dead hands - truly and amazing machine, will do anything you ask it to

Having owned both a 300tpi exc and 500exc its pretty clear. The 300 is the livelier, peppier relative, it's the most fun, but I live with the 500 because on tarmac liason it holds a constant throttle and on long or multi day trips the 300 felt like my head was inside a brass band instrument, 3x300 mile days and I was smashed on the 300😂

Great to own a thoroughbred and a quarter horse they both have specific nuances that make them a joy in different riding situations.....enjoy

[@ericmessinger1361]

You are so very right.

[@BraaapoholicBob]

I have owned both these bikes and they are completely different. You can't really even compare them. 300 is light and flickable single-track bike. %00 is very powerful but way too much bike in the tight stuff. I just don't think a comparison is really viable. So different.

[@renokrmac7877]

Which one is faster, 0-100?

[@KnuckleCrushers]

Never owned one, but wont a Rekluse auto-clutch take care of the engine braking?

[@double-oseven5725]

The heaviest of the 'Best Dual Sport Bikes' clutch weight plates fixes the vibration plus sudden eng braking, also gives more control over logs
