Nice setup Scott. For a rear tug strap (even for front) I recommend the Kriega. So much easier to grab. For a damper think about the Precision Racing Products. Very light and low profile. The throttle guide prevent pinching is a simple hose and zip tie arrangement.
I've got the TX300. How'd you do the radiator fan? What part number from Trail Tech did you use? And did you do an upgrade to the stator? I've been hearing that the tusk fans are the only ones that pull little enough power draw to work on these TBI bikes, but i'd LOVE to have one if i can figure it out.
Tristin, if you are not intending to run any lighting, you will be fine using the Trail Tech fan. The stator on the XC bikes is lower output than the W or EXC bikes, so you would likely drain the battery when trying to run a fan and lights together. True North Moto did a video about running lights and fan and came up with the Tusk fan as the lowest draw. I really like the way the TT fan installs, very clean and mounts like it was from the factory. One issue with the Tusk fan is the two mounting bolts securing the fan to their bracket. I've seen where the head of the bolt can rub on the gas tank. The part # you will need is TT732-FN3. I got mine from Slaven's Racing. As far as wiring, there is not a dedicated plug under the tank from Husqvarna to plug the fan in, so you will need to run the power and ground DIRECTLY to the battery, no where else. Otherwise, straight forward install, even with a larger Acerbis tank and radiator guards. I installed one on a TX for a friend and no problems. Thank you for reaching out and watching.
It is the std height, comfort seat (not the comfort XL which is wider), carbon sides, gripper top with orange stitching. I’ve always used this configuration of seat on my KTMs. Excellent seat. Thank you for watching
This was the first Beta I ever owned. Luckily I’m in a position to upgrade bikes every couple years and when the new TBI came out, it peaked my curiosity so I went with it. I’ve always owned KTMs so it made sense. Nothing really wrong with the Beta other than some fit and finish details and it’s a bit more buzzy with vibrations than the orange bikes. Personal preference really.
What model Trail Tech fan kit did you use? I didn't see one for the 2023 300 xc. Did you have to make any mods? Do you know if it fits with the Acerbis 3 gallon tank yet? Great vid...
Robert, the Trail Tech part # is TT732-FN3. I purchased mine through Slavens Racing and confirms it will fit both the stock tank and the Acerbis, which I just installed last weekend and no fitment or clearance issues whatsoever. In fact the Acerbis tank fit as good as stock, all bolts and plastics lined right up. Thanks

Thank you for the advice, Ollie. Appreciate the view.
i like them upgrades
Thank you!

Did you get the gripper seat top or the semi gripper seat top? Any recommendations.... I have the same bike.... THANKS!

@@code4performance Is it so 'sticky' that you have a hard time bailing off the bike during hill climbs?
@@rjthomasindyusa no, not at all. I bet if you called seat concepts, they would send you a small sample piece of the material.
First
I’ll never keep up with your channel, Conner. Good stuff
Why did you go back to KTM from the Beta?

@@code4performance Thanks.... I ordered one last night.
I felt the stock suspension was way soft. I'm 215.
It prob was with the OEM springs and the weight given with gear. Good re valve is worth every penny.
