100% I have the new 2024 yz 250x and a 2023wr I ride both but the Wr has better power delivery, the stalling is the same on the Wr I turned the idle up about 200 rpm’s it’s really not much at all but it helps a heavier flywheel would help also with the WR 250 not the 450 it’s so light nimble for a four stroke and with the adjustable maps in the Wi-Fi GTR tuner app the things you can do with that engine is amazing

Been on FE350 since 2017. Switched to a 300 for about a year then went back to a 350. It is better suited for the riding I do and feel it really is the Swiss Army knife of bikes. Super efficient so I can get long desert rides in and versatile enough to handle super technical terrain. I don’t think I’ll ever get rid of my 350. Great content and keep on brapping!

Just moved from a FE350 to 300EXC. I like different things about them and both have benefits. The 300 is 6 years newer so might not be a fair comparison. What I like about the 300 is that it does not stall almost ever, it feels lighter, the suspension is way better (but it would be way better on a brand new 350 aswell). What I like more about the 350 is how it feels more snappy off the idle and how much longer the gears are with the higher redline. Crossing logs was easier on the 350, twisty singletrack between trees is less tireing on the 300.

Rich, as a 2T purist I say nooooooooooo..but as a realist I say “what suits your riding style and where do you ride most”.. Even though I religiously follow all your riding tips I’m a crappy rider ( plus I’m 65 😂😂😂) I’ve found 2T a bit more forgiving on the lug.. Stark had an open day at my local track ( south of Sydney, Australia) , they are an awesome bike and will definitely feature in enduro/ MX in the future.. Yes 4T and electric are good but it’s the addictive 2T smell wins it for me as it takes me back to when I was a kid riding in the bush..😁👍

Where I live (CT), if you don’t ride a 300 people come talk to you and tell you that you need a 300. I ride a TE 125 and I love it. It turns beautifully and you can put it wherever you want. You must keep momentum and be in the right gear though, which is part of the fun. It’s kind of like a different sport really, a bit closer to downhill MTB. I would love to get a 350. I guess people would come talk to me and let me know that I need a 300 though 😅

Awesome video! I just switched from a YZ250X to a Sherco 450 SEF and absolutely love everything about it. Feels heavier in the slow stuff for sure, but that’ll just force me to be a better rider. The torque and smooth power is insanely fun though. It’ll pull from down low no problem, and with the low first gear, it’s an absolute tractor-just gas it and hang on! I’m going to have my work cut out for me on collecting the power now though. Been watching a lot of the content on that, we’ll see how it goes.

Rich, I may get blasted for this thought, but if you (or anyone else) were going 4-stroke, what if you did a 500 with different maps? Then you would have more to work with as you needed it? I know the 350 has more than enough to do the job, but just wanted to get you thoughts on why a 500, mapped correctly, would be "worse". Thanks brother for all you do. You've changed my dirt biking life with your videos!

Oh damn you were right around the corner from us in Fredericksburg!! As someone who has both a FE 350 and 501, the 350s are wonderfully snappy, but the stock tune, at least on the 21s, is just flameout central. Goofy lean. Take care of that and they're a blast. The 501 by comparison is just a chug monster. Kinda reminds me of the T7s power delivery. Just smooth chunky power that will send you to the moon if you want it. 24 for the record. I haven't had a chance to try any of the 24 350s. Wouldn't shock me if they really really fixed the bottom end. Earlier models guys have switched the ECU and rocked on, zero issues. Your notes about needing clutchwork to smooth things out on a 350 is 100% my own experience, even as a relative novice. Ditto on Braketec parts as well. Thinking retrofit to Bremmies when the time comes on my 24. Oh....and yes....THE HEAT....MY GOD.... My ECUd 350 isnt too bad, but good lord I need to do my 501. The stock 24 tune is just ball melting hot lol. Keep on ripping dude! Love the content. You should come ride at WATR sometime with us.

It needed to be rev a bit more and it stalls easier but when I put 12t in front I could do everything as on 2 stroke. Anyway 350 is my favorite bike now, BTW in Super Enduro they use 250 exclusively for a reason.

I have a 2018 350 husqy and 2024 300 ktm (fairly fresh, onyl 2 rides on it). Both have their ups and downs. The 300 feels a lot lighter but feels a lot less snappy off idle. Have run 13-15T on the front and 13T was pretty good for slow technical stuff. My experience abouth the weight is that the 300 feels noticeably lighter in twisty stuff and is easier to ride.

As a proud owner of a 350 F enduro and a 300 2t (and a 125 MX and a trials bike 😎), I can say that the 350 is the best all around dirt bike. It does it all very well. That said, and despite its amazing “tractorability”, I don’t think that for the average rider, the 350 would be the best choice if such rider only does slow technical hard enduro. The 350 requires more throttle and clutch play to avoid stalling and is more fatiguing due to its engine characteristics. Nonetheless, I doubt that anyone would be disappointed if they owned such a bike :)

Before you go and buy a 300 or 350 try hard enduro on a 2004 KX250 with 15/46 gearing(stock is 13/49) After kickstarting it it 20+ times in a 4hour trip youll know what bike not to use 😁

I just sold my '23 FX350 to get on a new '24 TX300 and while I do think the 300 is great I really think the 350 was a better bike, so I'm sure I'll be jumping back to a 350 in the next year or so..

I’ve put a little bit of time on a couple different TX’s and I have to say I’m not the biggest fan of the snappy engine. I definitely take a F350 over a TX 300 any day.

@@IRCTireUSAMoto Well I moto my bike as well and ST and dez stuff here in UT.. So I like the snap but for some reason I really prefer the long power curve on the 350.. Downside to the 350 is the complexity of the motor package, it's very hard to work on compared to a 300
