About time someone gives a review after 10 hours! Thank you!

Nice review. I have 10 hours on mine. The bike in the green map is an absolute monster!! Sooo much power, instant acceleration.

Good detailed review nice to hear your opinions on this bike

Awesome idea with hand knobs on suspension! Love ktm

Great review! I agree with a lot of your points.

Great video. Short / covers a lot of good stuff. Thanks

Excellent bike; I took one for a rip the other day and I was super impressed. I love the linear power of my TPI bikes but this TBI is amazing. Lot's of people will be buying this bike and Sherco and Beta will be way way behind as normal.

Nice overview. Thanks.

Solid review of the bike man 👍

love the dry humor. solid review

Wow dude..?.. this is the best goddamn bike review I've been subjected to..mmm..ever! Been riding dirt bike since early 90's and appreciate your input... My 2000CR 125 will catch up to you, later, anywhere... I can't afford to get rid of it 😅 see you at the crossing! Dirt roads

Awesome stuff. I'll be doing a review ony 2023 250XC soon as well. I'll subscribe to your channel also..trying to connect with as much XC owners with the TBI as possible !

Great review mate

Awesome review! I love mcnutt and I can see the at81ex working great there with tubliss, but where I live in Nelson the granite tears holes in that tire every other ride 😮 I’d like to hear a comparison between a TPI running a TSP flash/head vs the TBI stock

I’ve heard that a well setup TSB TPI bike is like a stock TBI, but I haven’t tried. Yup at81 is my choice…not in the summer or anywhere else though, I rip through em! IRC VE33S for summer.

I like the handguards . Nice bike im buyng the 250

amazing review

Great review. I have new 23 Husqvarna TE300

Nice - if you ride midweek at Mcnutt looking for more mid week riders - solid intermediate rider.

"Turn it" "it's EASY" FANTASTIC 👏😂✌️ Well done. Enjoyed that.. Got my Sub 👊.. OLD G 😉

The concern with the fan is running a fan and light together. Finding good performance within capacity

Awesome overview from an obviously experienced rider. I’m glad to see KTM continuing to innovate. Your mouth sounds nice too.

Regarding the Throttle Body F.I, I like... No-jetting convenience. Improved fuel combustion. Shock clicker hand-knobs. But compared to a carb'd model, I don't like... Maintenance complexity and cost. More Weight. (My carb'd model is already too heavy). Inflated Retail Cost is nearly $13,000 otd! I probably would'nt be able to get it a license plate. I ride a 2017 Husqvarna TE300 with a license plate.

Most comprehensive review I have seen on the new tbi. Were the spokes tight when you received the bike? Would love to see some videos of that bike in action

I’m very happy with the stock gearing, for technical stuff. The transmission is different, so 1st and 2nd gear are very close to the current xcw. Personal I think a 51 would be to much for me. I do like to run a gear higher typically and use a lot of clutch to keep traction.

Any issues fouling plugs? I have 2 TBI bikes. The 300xc and a 300TX. Both fouled plugs starting at about 3-4 hours. Riding singletrack and try to clean it out as I can and that’s usually when it fouls. Can’t believe of all the crap people talked about TPi bikes and I never had an issue with any of those I owned. Ugh. Love the bikes but don’t feel confident going on long rides without a couple plugs.
