I have 1,000 miles on my '21 300 xc-w and I can say the bike is awesome. I was on the fence 250 or 300. I'm super glad I bought the 300. 5'10 185 lbs. Perfect bike for me.
Absolutely love my 20 XCW the only bike that has improved my riding as much as it has..... They have their little issues, but the good is way better than anything else I've ever ridden... Keep the vids comin, you're doing a great job, thanks...
I ended up with a new 500EXCF. Came from a 250XC. I’m really surprised how low first gear is. Dang good in the woods, had no flameouts yet running stock. Really liking it. I’m sure the 350 is a great bike too.
Thanks man! I haven't ridden in many years but after watching videos on these bikes for the past few hours I think the decision on what to get is easy! Going full send and grabbing myself one of these bad boys.
6:14 - as Billy Bolt mentioned, a lot of pro Hard Enduro riders (other than being mandatory using it) they run the tail light and licence plate holder because it's another way you can grab the bike , with that's extra plastic underneath (on Huskys and Katies). Of course it's not ideal, but just wanted to let you know. I know you guys in the States like to get those "XC-W's" (they're called EXC's here in Europe) naked but that's one of the reasons we don't (AND of course because we can ride them in the streets too). ;-)
IM 65 , MY OCCUPATION KEEPS ME FIT TO RIDE A 2019 KTM 500 EXC F ON TRAILS AND MOUNTAIN ROADS, 3000 MI. LAST YEAR. IF I HAD THE MONEY I WOULD BUY AN XCW EFI FOR MORE AGRESSIVE TRAIL RIDING. I THANK YOU FOR THE EXPERT WORK YOU PUT INTO YOUR VIDEOS TO MAKE THE RIGHT DECISIONS IN THE DIRT BIKE WORLD. I JUST RENEWED MY SUBSCRIPTION FOR YOUR MAGAZINE BECAUSE THIS ONE I READ, LOL.
Kyle- The Kickstarter is not a big deal. You can get a lithium ion jump pack (genius boost, nexpow, etc) for cheap money these days. Can double as a back up phone charger or carry in your daily driver when your not riding.
Having recently bought a new2me 2020 300 XCW, I would say this review is fairly in line with my experience so far, other than he left out the 'bottom end sputter' issue. I was worried about the suspension coming off the XC, but its actually pretty awesome, the gearing is perfect for the tight gnar, and it does pull like a train!
Great review and I’m picking up my 2021, 250 XCW TPI in a week or two here in Michigan I can’t wait I really appreciated the review on it and what to do and what not to do with it I’ve waited three years for this bike my uncle bought a 300 last year at the end of the season and he loves it so I can’t wait to get mine home. Thanks 🙏🏻 again ok 👌🏼🔥🤠🔥Camping Russ out
I really like the 300’s because they are so versatile. In competition I would much rather be on a 300 than a 250. Also, the fuel injection is apparently working awesome now.
Hello Kyle, I have been following you for about 3 years now, love your reviews, but you only check the main brands, how about a review on a different type of bike like the GPX 250 TSE?
Hi Kyle, Something I've been wondering about is, I've never seen you add the kick starter? You've installed aftermarket items, better battery, capacitor and whatnot to get home. Why no kick starter kits? I had one installed on both my 2020 Husky 300 TEi and KTM 250 XCWi. The kit is about $200 - 225 so comparatively, it's not a break the bank investment. Just curious.
Great Review. I enjoy watching your videos. I just bought a 2021 KTM 350 XCF-W. I am fat and out of shape. After a 4 hour ride that seat was hard on the arse!
My 2014 husaberg 25 aneversary has 475 hours one one piston and the same gaskets that it came with frim factory.The carberator jetting is hundred percent it took one try for my dad to get it perfect.Thanks
As always, great videos Kyle, and we all know KTM are great bikes, but would be really nice if you would try more different brands, like Rieju (ex-Gasgas) or a TM (those blue awesome machines). 😊
I love all your kTm bikes. I dream that bike when i was a child. I hope i have that one. I always watch your video, I’m from philippines. Hope you noticed my comment. Thankyou
Wait til you ride a TM En they’re like the KTM but with more refinement. A treat indeed! But the KTM is still amazing. The new bikes are so dang good off the showroom floor now! Great review!
@@soin6967 maybe for some but for what my group riders 80 to 120 mile days in the high Country with no gas stations 3.2, 3.4 gallon tanks are a necessity and some big days we are still packing gas
What do u get on a stock tank for miles ? . I’ve ridden for 6-7 hours and never come close to using a full tank. Im not riding the entire time obviously, but dam 120 miles haha.
Good review and agree. One think you missed about xc-w is the PDS rear suspension setup. I had a 17te250 and it was a great bike with lot of big improvements and super reliable sold it with 200 hours second owner still running it and very happy. Since I bought my 2020 250 xc-w I been able to climb stuff I would have never been able to on te250 especially slow nasty stuff 1-3 gear. I thought maybe it was the TPI power delivery being smooth and easy. Well I put a TSP High compression head/ECU reflash kit on my 20 250xc-w and it climbs even better now and it making way more power down low and mid. It got to be the PDS rear shock it just gets more traction and a more direct feel compared to linkage. Maybe I am wrong.
Deffo changed back to 3 piece gasket for 2021, Check the parts fiche. The leak on the 2021 is slightly different to the main leak on the 2020's (not saying some of the 2020's didn't have the different leak as well).
Excellent stuff, if you were not going to buy in with KTM throttle body injection... Cuz you lived through the 80's, You would be stuck like me , like KTM is now not helping the industry with 3 name brands, all with same tech. I bought new KTM 5 years in a row. Stopped with my 18'250xc, I'm going to get that 125 xc and call it done, easy tool and fun tool, @55 in Canada......................or a Beta. Dammm
Kyle, I bought a 2021 TM300 en Fi. They have an electronic power valve and at least on paper seem to have addressed most of the problems the KTMs have. You should buy one and test it I'd love to hear your opinion on the bike
I have a 2021 300 xcw and recently added a 2022 350 xcf to the fleet for my son to ride. I know you're a fan of the xc, but I can't find any reviews of the 350 xcf. What do you think of the 350 xc v the sx or w model? Huge fan of your reviews and helped me buy my last few bikes. Can you test the 350 xc? Would be awesome..
Key Kyle! I have a 98 Ktm 380 mxc and really interested in getting a 2021-2022 Ktm 300 XC-W. I blew it up a few years ago. I’m on the fence on rebuilding the engine or just getting the new one because The 380 was a complete beast in the power department. Could you do a quick video of the comparison of a 380 vs. new 300 XC-W or XC thank you! You have awesome videos keep up the good work!
Kyle, Got a 22 300 xcw tpi. Maybe 35 miles on it. One tank of gas. Recent rides in Minnesota in 90 deg heat. 2-3rd gear on up or getting into gas it acts like a carb’d bike with rich jetting or too high of oil in a pre mix. Just won’t clean out under throttle. Added spark arrestor but it’s clear. Thoughts??
Kyle, its about time you brought in a new 350 xc-f. They have changed a ton since your last one and just may be the best all around bike there is. Keep at least one 4 stroke in your stable!
I just bought a 2021 350 XC-F for my son. What a machine! Very easy to ride, but an absolute beast when you grab a hand-full of throttle. The 350 feels a little heavier than my 300XCW even though it weighs a few pounds less. In fast terrain I fell like I could ride the 350 XC-F quite a bit faster than my 300 XCW. Maybe Kyle should get a 350 XC-F every year instead of the usual 250 XC for faster riding conditions.
Really good and thorough review. I know every other comment is a request to review some other bike so here's mine, how about getting a 2021 ktm 350xcwf? I don't think you've ever reviewed a ktm four stroke.
@@DirtBikeChannel I didn't know but those are basically the moto bikes with 18 inch rear wheels. The xcfw models are the four stroke equivalent of the two stroke few models. Ktm makes so many different models it's hard to keep track!
Kyle i think you might just be a tinkerer. I got my 14 xcw from an a Enduro guy 220lbs stock suspension no head work, sag was the only thing he changed. Said you just need to get better at riding if your playing with settings every ride unless its because its unsafe. Grass is always greener on the other settings lol.
Been on a 2019 250xcw for 2 years. Has a kickstarter stock, higher rads so no punctures, rear fender has finger slots, solid aluminum fuel outlet stock, been riding the newest sport/race map which lights up like and sx/xc. Had to upgrade forks to make it the best xcw available. Comes with the orange frame too
Awesome review Kyle, so although its still great, most of your dislikes where to do with the motor and throttle body. Have you had any experience with the 450 excf or 500 excf motors? Whats your main reason for having 250-300s and not owning a 450 or 500??
hello guys. wondering if the xcw have a lot more after market parts options compared to the huskys? i'm a short guy so sure need it lowered. i'm leaning towards husky becuase lowering them is a lot easier with just a lower link swap, but worries about not able to get aftermarket parts.
Have you tried the map switch for the 2020 or 2021? I'm considering adding it to my 21 but was wondering if there is a huge difference between the performance map and the soft map. After moving from a WR to this bike its a totally different world. Nice review.
Hey Kyle I'm looking to get into trail riding really leaning to the 300xcw or yz250fx I've had many bikes in the past but never a 2 stroke biggest turn off for me is having to mix the fuel do you think I'm better to get a 4 stroke or just run the 2 stroke?
Kyle, I have been riding open class bikes from a young man RM465 to a Rocket Rex KX 500 in the 90's right know I'm on a KTM 500 exc but I'm thing i want to buy a KTM or Husky 2-stroke 300 but worry that it wont pull me like i'm use to. I weigh 260 with all my gear what do you think?
Kyle, I have to call you out. Parts interchangeability is common and why did you hype this up so much on the KTM's but not others? In addition, there is more to bikes than just the product, there are the people that make them and sell them. I would rather buy a brand of bike sold by independent dealers and preferably made by a smaller manufacturer (like Beta and Sherco FYI). Most KTM dealers could could not care less if I walk in. Consequently I don't care much about their bikes. And if you see my handle I obviously used to be a KTM fan. There's more to a bike than "features". Other folks are getting this. Why aren't you?
Where in Utah logistically is the best place to live for access to trails ? I’m looking to relocate and I’m big into mtb and dirtbiking . I’ve only vacationed Utah a couple weeks so
I just purchased a 2021 and heading to Mexico for a 10 day ride this week. I thought I had all my bases covered, then this vid about radiator hose sliced/power valve ? please explain in more detail ?
Great channel but running less oil effectively runs a bike richer, not leaner. Rich and lean are terms related to Air/Fuel ratio, not premix ratios. Lean means more air than fuel,.
Kyle, This has to be your best review yet. Well done! Hit all the touch points and referenced the interchangeable parts very well.
Thank you.
Totally Agree! Great job man
Own the 20’ TE300i, best bike I’ve owned in 40 years of riding! BARNONE

Finally landed my 22 xcw and this channel helped me on again on 2nd bike first was a 19 yamaha 250x and love that bike
Great review can we finally get a 350 4 stroke? Seriously one of the most popular bikes going here in Australia
Can’t go wrong with the 350 great bikes
Hey. I would like to see that also. I have to ride some paved roads to get to the trail
I ended up with a new 500EXCF. Came from a 250XC. I’m really surprised how low first gear is. Dang good in the woods, had no flameouts yet running stock. Really liking it. I’m sure the 350 is a great bike too.
They are awesome bikes, good power, and comfortable
No one wants a 4 stroke unless there confused lol

I totally agree with you on the seats. My WR250F seat was harder but a tad wider. But my TE 300i is softer a bit narrower.
What I want is you reviewing a 2021 SHERCO 300 SE Factory please!!!
My after market pipe just makes more power for sure and sounds wonderful. But I really notice a better power band.
There's some very good info here Kyle.

Keep it up!
Enduro engineering flags that attach to the clutch and brake clamps are better than the stock Ktm ones IMO. These are wonderful bikes.

I wish there was a spark arrester like my old 79 Krizmann. It made the bike sound like a snowmobile. I still like the sleds with pull and SHOTT.
Awesome review man! Just put in a 3K order with your link!
Just bought a 21 300xcw great video. Thanks
Love the way you do things...
Should try out the SWM RS, as an alternative...

As always, great videos Kyle, and we all know KTM are great bikes, but would be really nice if you would try more different brands, like Rieju (ex-Gasgas) or a TM (those blue awesome machines). 😊
Kyle, why the change? You used to complain about the gap between 2nd and 3rd gear on the XCW. Did you get use to the gap? Did KTM change the gearing?
I love all your kTm bikes. I dream that bike when i was a child. I hope i have that one. I always watch your video, I’m from philippines. Hope you noticed my comment. Thankyou
I think if they come stock with a spark arrester it puts the bike into a different category for emissions in the US.
Wait til you ride a TM En they’re like the KTM but with more refinement. A treat indeed! But the KTM is still amazing. The new bikes are so dang good off the showroom floor now! Great review!
They're real beauties! I've only seen a couple ones IRL in Belgium, they're like unicorns haha
That's how I'm leaning. Plus, the TM is available as carb or fi.
Add to the list of what they need to come with. Big gas tank, rear disc guard, hand guards, skidguard.
It holds more then enough fuel. But the others I agree with.

Get a new one. More useable poeer for trails. But rebuild that old bike and just have it as a toy
Do you have a part number for the bump start capacitor?
You need to try the wp xplor pro 6500 cartridge kit in your xc-w it’s a game changer
I would really like to hear a comparison of the different rear shocks on the XC-W vs. the XC. Which do you like better in general?
I think with a dead battery it would bump start but if you have your battery disconnected it won’t I could be wrong though

how do you think it will perform in the dunes. I ride mostly on hard dirt and rocky places but sometimes will take it to the dunes.
For what do you need a spark arrestor? Do you even register your bikes for driving on public roads?
Greetings from Germany

Where in Utah logistically is the best place to live for access to trails ? I’m looking to relocate and I’m big into mtb and dirtbiking . I’ve only vacationed Utah a couple weeks so
Quick question about the 300 xcw. Can you rev the bike really high and do motocross without blowing up the motor
When are you going to review the 2021 Honda CRF150R ?
I just purchased a 2021 and heading to Mexico for a 10 day ride this week. I thought I had all my bases covered, then this vid about radiator hose sliced/power valve ? please explain in more detail ?
Great video, thanks

Hey Kyle, do you know if the new 150's are also prone to the PV Rad hose leak?
I have a 2021 ktm 300XC ...but I don’t like graphics... can I put the 2020 Xc
Graphics ??Note: I’m not talking about the xc w graphics
I’m new to riding dirt in Utah - are there any good resources for finding trails near me?
Great channel but running less oil effectively runs a bike richer, not leaner. Rich and lean are terms related to Air/Fuel ratio, not premix ratios. Lean means more air than fuel,.
