2024 KTM 150 XC-W First Ride | Dirt Bike Test

[@Dat_Sun]

The 150's are so much fun. I regret trading my te150 for a new 23 250xc, the xc is fun and feels super lightweight with the aer. But the te150 was much more "enjoyable" for putting around on the trail.

It’s awesome to see progress on 2 strokes !!

[@DirtBikeTest]

We agree!

[@jvitorbr2]

good video! in 2:22, what this camera?

[@thomasknapp7236]

How would these work for a 200lb ride on single-track? My Sherco 300se factory is just more than I need on single track

[@selcosucks]

Where are they testing? I wanna ride there. Looks beautiful

Any footage of riding the 150xcw on the moto track? Would love to hear more how it revs!

[@DirtBikeTest]

We’ll post a GoPro on the bike!

[@kcimages5157]

Kdx 220 replacement ?

[@sawyersdad5292]

my thought exactly

[@adilsonpissinidico]

How is that compared with KTM 150 xcw 2019 carb please?

[@learningtofly6804]

Have you guys ridden the previous gen 150tpi? Be interesting to hear how it compares. Nice chilled vid :)

[@DirtBikeTest]

I have not ridden the 150TPi, only the 250 and 300 TPi Husky's, so I can't compare this bike to the old one. - Trevor

So I hear the new 24 model with the new TBI motor has much more low end torque. Would you suggest this would be a good bike from somebody like myself transitioning from a CRF250f for trail riding? Not doing anything gnarly but I like a good trail bike that I can just have fun out and the Honda is good for that but the suspension is lackluster so I'm just looking to go up to the next level and not break the bank.

[@DirtBikeTest]

This would be a level up in terms of power, suspension, and handling coming from the CRF250F.

Great for beginner 6’0. 225lbs????

[@DirtBikeTest]

We'll discuss on Tech Talk #206

[@thomassanio8745]

At 6 tall and 200 lbs am I too big or just need a suspension revalve on a bike like the 150?

[@DirtBikeTest]

It'd for sure be tougher on the small bike, but a capable rider can make anything work. The 250/300 might be better suited as you can use the extra torque to your advantage. The 150 can be fun though!

[@leroywilliams7210]

I’m 220ish and have a 300 and a 150. On hard enduro or wide open high speed stuff the 300 is better for flowy single track and hooning around it is soo much fun!!! It couldn’t be my only bike because I like the real hard stuff, but I ride it more often than the 300. 🤘🏻

[@tandccreations6383]

Man I love the torque of the 4stroke bikes especially for my kind of racing but when I go on my normal rides the 2strokes suit me so much better I just wish I could have both at once😂

[@sawyersdad5292]

with bikes with the same size motor 2 strokes have more torque... they fire on each stroke.
