When he thought he had to kick start it 😂

[@ShiftGearsMoto]

Ah, the 3/4 frame bike. Also, their engines are tuned down. The irony of that crash at 1:29... always happens.

[@doghouseriley8696]

Thanks for the excellent review. I've ridden one and loved it, but it's good to get a top rider's perspective. I've got an XR650R for the desert and open country; I'm getting an Xtrainer for everything else.

[@DerekHallman]

Thanks for watching! Enjoy your XTrainer if you end up getting one 😁

[@marclarden]

Don't like the stupid cables sticking up high over the front plate.

[@samm9174]

Those trees freak me right out. I ride open country. Is that trail name 101 ways to wreak yourself? Lol

[@TheChapMX]

They had a good day in the woods for the demo man the dirt looks like it was amazing. Videos in the bank for days!!! Sweet deal!

[@DerekHallman]

By the end of the day when the lines were built up the dirt was niceeeee!

[@fabiofrancisco9235]

I already bougth my XT 300cc 2022 😁. I have 30H on it and I'm in love

[@DerekHallman]

That's awesome Fabio congrats on the bike 😁

[@utahdesertrider1806]

Xtrainer sis the easiest to ride bike ever. Super nimble in rocks out here in Utah. My wife rides it. Just don’t get in big whoops in 3rd gear… it’ll buck ya. 😆

[@wesd3742]

Great review, glad you are not biased to race bikes. like so many others. I'm 5'5" and honestly this is the only real dirt bike that has any real performance I have found that I can comfortably ride with any confidence. I hate kicking 250's leaned up against a tree. Asshole friends love that shit. Shitbirds...

[@GasSoakedRag]

🤣🤣

[@Jthumper]

this mite be the pefect old mans bike, my uncorked crf450x hands me my ass every ride- its like oh hey you lost your balls in turn 5 do you want them back?

[@Ch1oeW]

Thanks for the video! It was great hearing a review from someone with no preconceived notions of the bike. Torquey it is. The power is linear so there’s no power band. It’s made for tricker gnarly riding versus racing. It’s like a 3 stroke haha and looks great!

[@Dontortellini3]

Hi, would like to know how the front wheel feel is? Does the front feel less stable than on other bikes? Thank you

[@Ch1oeW]

Not less stable but easier to purposefully pop the front wheel up. I love being able to pop the wheel up to easily hop over things. I think some people say the front is less stable at high speeds but again, the purpose of this bike is not to race, it's to ride tricky terrain. I find it more stable because the power is more linear.

[@Ch1oeW]

@@bikersoncall Yes, the Xtrainer and Freeride are hybrid trial-enduro bikes and they do not have a typical 2 stroke power band- not sure what is so funny about that. The power is linear. It's a great unique bike.

[@fastfishes]

Great video, very unbiased review and very interesting points about power delivery

[@DerekHallman]

Thanks Craig!

[@bobsalterorsouthwestsaltah4959]

Man at 6’3” I am surprised you could ride it at all !!! I am 5’8” in my boots and I definitely can cramp up if sitting for any extended period of time !!! Have had mine for over a year now… love it !!!!

[@jessederossett1484]

For those that don't know it's called a cross trainer

[@anthonygrijalva8821]

You older (50+) slower guys that do harescramble and sprint Enduros would you use this bike?

[@rochellestanley9532]

Definitely 👍

[@mikelyon5595]

No insult intended, but competitive woods riders are nuts!

[@LF78]

NIce bike and nice video !!! have a honda 450 rx (enduro) but i am thinking of swapping for a 2 stroke. I'm torn between beta and sherco. What is your opinion regarding weight / power?

[@EinSteinerEnduro]

I have a Sherco 125 and love it. Handling is much better than any Ktm I have been on. I have not ever been on a Beta 2t.

[@LF78]

@@EinSteinerEnduro thank you gained one more subscriber 😉

[@EinSteinerEnduro]

thanks!

[@liamwilson1948]

I don't think the rx means enduro, idk I've never really looked into the rx's

[@EinSteinerEnduro]

@@liamwilson1948 Honda RX is Enduro. Beta RX is motocross.

[@balintcap4098]

Nice

[@NOTTApro142]

I’m looking at betas, I believe the Xtrainer has a pipe in it that’s smaller, but it gives it more torque, so if you bought one you could buy an FMF fatty for it

[@nascarandrc8296]

I just bought this exact bike yesterday can't wait to go riding

[@DerekHallman]

Nice dude have fun riding!

[@WadeMade]

Awesome video, Thanks for the feedback. I just ordered one. Can't wait to hit some big hill climbs.

[@alistermushafa1505]

I love this bike man fun to riding specialy for extreme enduro. Im 5'8 so this bike fit me so well. Keep it up man!!

Nice 🙂 motorcycle bro great day bro

[@specializedbighitfsr]

Would like to hear a comparison to your ktm 150.... I have a 150xcw that I ride for hare scrambles/gp's and technical enduro. Im a lighter rider at around 150lbs, so my 150 has no problem lugging up climbs. I am a lug master....haha, often a gear or 2 too high. Always looking for ways to tone down the top end in order to get more 'usable' gear before the hit. Im just not a high rpm rider. Thanks :)

[@cvaja_2t352]

How much hp does it have with some aftermaket pipe?

[@donwatkins9769]

You should read the spec's before talking about it and then you would know why the buke feels the way it does.

[@DerekHallman]

I'm not giving a professional or scientific review, I'm giving a raw first riding impression and my honest reactions about the bike.

[@connorarmstrong8613]

1:47 yea dude there's no kick start on these

[@DerekHallman]

🤣 I was hoping someone caught that!

[@liamwilson1948]

@@DerekHallman I can't stop laughing and re watching that lmao, I think all bikes should have a Kickstart, I'm mean have u ever seen someone that's been on a electric start bike try to kick start a 250 4t lol

Nice video! Im gonna buy one but i don’t know if i should get 250xtrainer or 300xtrainer, im 5.8, 13 and weight 125lbs. I have some riding experience.

[@AboxoroxRoxursox]

Just get a 300

[@AboxoroxRoxursox]

If you do trail and enjoy playing around its perfect bike

[@gabrielechimento8719]

This isn't a race bike, it's more of a trail bike to ride around the woods

[@rochellestanley9532]

Totally depends on your skill level..

[@gabrielechimento8719]

@@rochellestanley9532 no. This bike is not a RR(beta racing model). This one is a mix of a trial bike and enduro bike. Plus it's got 30ish horsepower, while the racing model got 20 or so more. Besides the power output, the forks and shocks are different, even the frame is different. Still the Xtrainer is a valid bike, it even mixes oil and gas separately, in order for newbies to not struggle with premix. Now, for me, I'd choose the RR but I do come from a racing bike so I definitely know how to work on one.

[@rochellestanley9532]

@@gabrielechimento8719 I assure you, a proper rider can work wonders 😎

[@gabrielechimento8719]

@@rochellestanley9532 this for sure, put Tim Coleman on a Xtrainer and me on a RR, I'm about to be whooped. Still, you can't tell me that evening riders will be faster on a Xtrainer, the RR 300 is a hell of a bike yet, has so much torque on the bottom power curve. The Xtrainer is a great starter bike and yes a pro would still go fast as lightning but the RR is a race machine.

[@westonadams2834]

I’m getting this one and I’m 13 and 5’4

What has been your favourite bike so far

[@DerekHallman]

I really really liked the 350 RR Race Edition. Felt like I could groove at high speeds on that all day long.

[@dankagentwillis979]

Hows the suspension on that guy?

[@riley8386]

Hey Derek I recently bought my first GoPro hero 9 and I would like to start doing videos like you! But unfortunately I need a place to put my GoPro and figured you’d be the guy to help. I have filmed but with another cheap camera. Also if there is anyone in the comments that can help that would be Amazing!

[@americandirtrider7662]

Damn, that "hot lap" looked like a blast on that bike. Looks like it leans over and sticks in corners pretty damn well.

[@DerekHallman]

Yeah it was a ton of fun! I was surprised at well this one handled. It felt lower to the ground so it was very easy to maneuver.
