2024 KTM 300 EXC - SPECIAL TEST

I ride the brand new 2024 ktm 300 exc tbi on a special test in South Africa. This is a course through the woods to really test the bike and see what it can do. I'm not a professional so it's a real riders first look at the bikes capabilities. It crashes well :)

You're a very lucky boy🎉.

Hi mate did you ride the new 250 exc? If so what are you thoughts on that vs the new 300?

[@juniorsmith996]

I've been waiting for a long time thx jarvis by the way your my favourite youtuber

[@joshuaoliver2619]

Going to be buying one in the next month or so. Think I'm going to go with the 300xc though just for the linkage suspension, although I've heard the new 300 xcw is able to be ridden fast with the pds where as before the bike wanted to stink bug. Would be interesting to ride both back to back

[@nelsonvzaks9186]

Midwest what is that thing on the left side handlebars that's black and almost circular in shape?

[@ryanstewart1521]

1st review with that bike where someone is actually going over good size bumps showing how well the new forks work.

[@davidgreen1337]

Just a question do these come with 2 exhausts im seeing some with std expansion pipes and some with long headers with lambda on. Someone enlighten me please?

[@TheBrake63]

Was this warm up test ?🤔😜 When are you posting the special test ? 😁😄

[@MidwestMXLife]

I suck. Get over it 🤣

[@desert-timber-outdoors6577]

I’ve noticed a lot of slow guys seem to like the 300s more than the 250s…. Just more forgiving with having a torque range everywhere I guess.

[@mitchellweitsz]

That’s why all pros ride 300s hmmm

[@MidwestMXLife]

It’s because the 300 has so much torque in the bottom end. You can ride really steep technical terrain and keep traction where as a 250 would spin

[@JayGee6996]

The 250 is better for fast technical a start/stop riding like in this video, think single track. The 300 has much more torque and is more versatile so you can still ride areas like this but they shine in slow and technical terrain. If you want to wring it’s neck get the 250, otherwise the 300

[@DirtbikesNDirtRoads]

So here's a question, we do mostly woods riding, but I would dig to do a few enduros as well, Would you say 250 or 300 is a better fit? I haven't tried any of them yet. Just curious on your opinion.

[@joejefferies6668]

300

[@DirtbikesNDirtRoads]

@@joejefferies6668 Thanks man, Funny, KTM came around this side to demo the 2024 models as well! For the loops that we did the 250 2T was allot better for me. I'm going to post a video about is as well. I was quite surprised, also thought the 300 will feel better. I think I know why.

[@joejefferies6668]

@g69sonix I now own a 24 300 exc and it just lugs like you wouldn’t believe. i also own a 2019 300 with a TBI kit and that is a beast too

[@adibabi]

How have I only just found this vid😮😅😅😅

[@Jobcat]

What’s the difference from the XC-W and the EXC????

[@MidwestMXLife]

Same bike. XC--W in America and EXC in Europe

[@Jobcat]

@@MidwestMXLife Yeah did a bit of searching to figure that out. was confused there were so many models. Thank you!

[@markr3140]

On the handlebars, what is the black circular device / thing - not easy to work out!! Cheers

[@MidwestMXLife]

Just a bike number for the fleet we were using and tracker

[@STEAZE_O]

How are 2 strokes street legal ? So loud ! Probably going to grab a 300 just because of that 🤣

[@Swerwe0]

can you suggest me a bike for 1000euro less?

[@harveygstar1691]

I’m going to be honest you can’t really get anything

[@Swerwe0]

@@harveygstar1691 even a used one?

[@harveygstar1691]

@@Swerwe0no. Unless it’s literally falling to bits and will require an extra 1000 - 2000 to fix it.

@@harveygstar1691 i mean i dont need anything fancy, just something to have fun with during summer
