Biggest takeaway from this video is how straight the bike tracks through the rocky climbs. The new WP suspension is dialed. I ride alone about 50% of the time and love doing it.

Seems like your at your peak of happiness with that 150 and it's brought the best out in you with your riding. That bike looks ridiculous fast lol, awesome to see some content on it looking forward to more. ✌🏻

I passed my test and said I'm sick of 125s "I want a powerful bike" I brought a 2007 gas gas ec 300 12 months later " I'd love a 200"

Road 125’s are completely different to off road bikes. You don’t need alot of power off-road

@SDrtheone yeah that's what I'm talking about and an enduro 125 is different to a motorx 125.

Ive been riding a 2016 ktm 200 for the past 8 years. Bought it new back in 2016, still the most fun enduro bike ive ever ridden. It has much more torque than a 125 but I cant compare it to a 150 since i havent ridden one in a long time. If you find a used 200 in good condition just buy it dont think about it😅

wow! looks awsome. love to go riding there, i have a 1997 kawazaki KLR250

I had an old 150sx and loved it, can feel your joy. Great vid as always. Enjoy

you know its a good day when Midwest uploads

Love watching your videos, looking into getting my own dual sport bike this year so I can finally go and do this stuff myself!

Midwest 150 !! 14 mins of giggling to yourself 🤣🤣 it does sound extremely sweet opened up . Appreciate your effort bud 👍🏼✌🏼

Was waiting for this one! Happy to see your enjoying it, I love my te150 it’s just the perfect play around bike, you can lug it along pretty well without it stalling but still wanna work that clutch I use lots of 2nd/3rd gear and try to stay out of power enough to wheelie its just a bump of the clutch to bring it into power if that makes sense, but I’m also 140lbs so I’m fairly light rider on it, definitely not a 300 but there is plenty on tap for lots of fun to be had!

Yo this is sick i have ben waiting for this for so long!!!!! Best video ever!!

so well done Sir ! I'm really enjoying your content and how its set up

I love the solo video style, I'm really looking forward to more of them

Another great video 👍you made a great choice on buying the 150.can’t wait for the next video with you and your boys on your 150.👍👍👍👍👍

Great video as always👍liked the couple of off bike shots👍great bike , great soundtrack 👍🙏

Ktm 200 rider here, I bought mine new back in 2016 and its the most fun yet capable hard enduro bike ive ever ridden. If you are a beginner/intermediate rider, dont buy a 250 or 300, you think you want the power but you really dont. You will have allot more fun on a 200 and even though it has less power its still extremely capable even in hard enduro terrain. I personally havent got the chance to ride a 150 in the past 4 years so I cant say how it compares, but theres always the Beta 200 as an option aswell which has even more power than the Ktm.

I second this, especially if you're not in great shape. I bought a 14' 300 for my first bike since my teenage years. After 2yrs of working on technique and getting into shape I still found that the immense torque of the 300 just flat wore me out. I had a lot of fun for about the first 45min, the rest of the ride I fought fatigue. Switched to a YZ250FX and at the same time upgraded my son to a 125XC, having a much better time. Neither of these bikes lug like a 300 but it forces you to work on clutch control.

I have mostly rode alone, and some of the best times I have ever had were on a 2 stroke in the middle of no-where. Just lil ole me, and the bike. Fun times indeed. And then there are the times when you are miles from anywhere and you have the gnarliest climb or downhill in front of you and it takes a real effort of will power to push through the fear into doing it. And the adrenalin screaming with the bike as you get it done. Nothing better ...

After changing from a TM 300 EN to a TM 144, everything became more fun, the lightness, how nimble you feel and the sound coming out from these mid bore 2s makes you always smile 😊

NICE! I love my TE150i Husky. Once bedded in, I'm sure your EXC will feel on the short side. Mine is definitely shorter than my last 250 4 stroke, and that height difference, for me, is a real game-changer.

Realy nice solo ride vidéo. What a sound of this beautiful bike.

These videos made me get a 150 after 4 years off the bike and previously riding beta 300rr . Love how snappy the 150 is

Love the videos man😍

I ride a sx 144 set up for enduro and it’s so fun. Sadly getting rid of it this month for a 250xcw but best bike out there to put a smile on your face

Been waiting on the 150 first ride …..looking forward to seeing more

Cracking little bike, think we rode some of those trails last Sunday….. Awesome place!

Can you make a video about what kind of gear you wear in the winter or summer ? I would love that

Ride buy footage was great more of those please👍👍

ay nice vid, what camera you useing, and if so r u changing lighting? im a new youtuber and want to know what successful dirt bikers r useing😀

I just picked up 23 150exc coming of a 250 four stroke and yes not as much power but as you say so much fun. I have changed riding style and it makes you pick better lines. I love it. G day from Australia.

If you don't mind me asking what settings do you run on your GoPro? Is it superview or hyoerview

you should definitely upload a solo ride on the 150 and the 300 with no commentary, just the angry bees, loved the editing on the video btw!

Yes, yes, yes!!! Love the 150s ❤

What camera and camera settings are you using for this vid, captures things well with good motion blur and colour. Fun vid as always!

Looking forward to seeing more of the 150 👌👌👍

Marvis in his natural habitat! Awesome video as always!

Yeah!! more 150 content!! love my husky 150, awesome bikes!!

I can feel your joy riding this just from watching!

Hey I’m looking at buying the 150 exc is that bike road legal? And do you think it would be ok to to the odd mx race? Thanks

I’m always riding alone, it’s good to be alone and not worried to get something wrong and feel like your holding people up sorting it out, love the bike tho man 🫶🏼

I love my Ktm 200XC-W and i also have a new 350excf. The 200 is by far the more fun bike, and even if the 350exc is about 30-40lbs heavier, which is still light for a 4stroke. Its still very noticeablley heavier and the 200 just feels so nimble and light compared to it. Mine is a 2014 200XC-W. Id love to try the new EFI motors.. Also put some basic power mods on the 150 and you will have way more power than stock on top of that..

Great riding! Cool bike as well

I need some help. What bike should I get. I have a crf230f 4 stroke and I’ve out grown the power. Don’t know if i should go 2 or 4 stroke. I do more enduro and farm riding. Is the bike in this video good? Never had a 2 stroke wouldn’t mind changing it up a bit

Sounds and makes you look like a pro 👍🏻

Looks so much fun!!!

That 150 does look proper fun!

He's truly alive

I’ve got a few ktm’s the 150 sx is by far my favourite, il take it long before the 350sx. More of this one please

How much hp does this bile have? It looks awesome but seems to be a bit slower than my old 06 Yz 125

Gavin you have to come out to colorado this year, to peach valley, in Olathe colorado, look it up with big bertha our biggest hill, and we have some amazing trails in colorado mountains.

Loved the video!

You find some good places to ride, don't recognise it, I'm selling the tenere now and getting back on a enduro bike, miss the trails to much. Great video again, was getting worried when I'd noticed you hadn't been on for a bit

I just love the area you ride at

That’s some nice scenery!! I considered the KTM150 for my first 2-stroke, but went with the Yamaha 125X. So glad I didn’t go with the 250! Pretty sure I would’ve had to pack extra underwear for that because the 125 can make me pucker up at times. Can’t ride a 2-stroke very well, as I’ve been conditioned on thumpers my whole life. Gotta say tho, the little 125X does put a smile on my face, and for the same reasons you mention of your 150. The smaller cc keeps you on your toes and has loads of personality. Highly underrated in some circles of thought. Have fun!

BEEN WAITING

Love the bikes and keep riding

You were giving it the beans for a solo ride

I’m 5’6 and got my first bike (a KTM) -had to switch to a husky because the KTM was so dang tall! Lol things are monsters! I ride alone 80-90% of the time and do enjoy it but riding with friends is so much fun!

I got a 150sx and it’s so fun. Maybe less powerful than my 350xc but it’s so much more fun and I can dig into the corners easy

Great video bud👍

Hi, I have the te 150. Love it! I mostly ride by myself

Wicked. You’re right at home on that thing! Just as you said you def you can ride them normally, it’s just they make you want to twist it 😁. And they are actually genuinely really fast lol. Rockets! I plod around on mine in slow stuff happily. My TPi with the TSP head will lug up stuff really well. You get good at working the clutch up hill climbs. It’s ace fun. I’d love to go out alone if I had your wilderness on my doorstep, love these new vids. Maybe get an inreach emergency thing if you’re out of phone signal range just in case.

Nice quick video respect. And if I feel I need to get out and no-one is up for it I still go but I call my son to tell him where im going An what time I should be back. 👍👊

I guess you need a full bike licence, and the bike has to be road legal to go on those trails, right? I have always wanted to get a mx bike, as I have a van to move one around, but don't really know where to go and ride,

Finally the vido appeared 😮❤

I bought a practically-new 2018 TE150 last fall and the first 5 seconds of this video is what I've been trying to tell everyone happens. Like yeah, the bike flies through the trees and dances up rocks because it's so light/flickable which is awesome but the best part is the engine noise just makes you laugh. I'm about to go to an MX track for the first time with it and I can't wait because the thing is just fucking hilarious to listen to. I usually ride pseudo-hard enduro, real slow and technical, so when it does scream through the power band it's so fun

Could you make video on GoPro settings?

What GoPro settings do you use?

I'm 60 yrs old I have a quadracer with a ninja 1000 motor ..and I ride a 1983 XR 350 R.i live in Oregon I trying so hard to sell both of them to buy a 150 cc bike my XR is heavy and my quad is insane thanks for riding it hard because I am not sold on the small bore bikes yet..👍

im new to creating content this year and plan a. lot of lone rides to get some drone footage too. im also looking for a light enduro so really keen on seeing how good these are.

I like how ther is just a river at your feet

So much faster on that bike makes you a better rider personally 👍

I love your videos bro they're awesome. I watch your videos since 2020 quarantine and i have one suggestion so your videos can become better overall. My suggestion is if you can remove the square thing on the bottom right of a video when it's in full screen and it says"subscribe" trust me it will make your videos awesome!

Great video, i’d love to know the area you’re riding.

this bike is awesome

how do you find places like this?

Can anyone tell me where these trails are, looks epic 🔥

What camera do you use?

my dream bike 😍

I have a Ktm 85 19/16 Red Bull I’m a jumper but I love ur videos because it’s a 2 stroke 😂

I always go out riding by myself . I just try my hardest to not do anything too stupid . I bet that fuel injected 2stroke feels really good

I tried to bridge the gap and went with the Beta 250rr. This bike looks like a lot of fun though!

I am 58 with a BMX background but my body is pretty battered and worked these days, I am thinking a 150 would be plenty for me because I need something that won't encourage me to ride too stupidly LOL. Keep the great content coming my friend. 🤘😎🏍

@@MidWestMX 🤔These days I prefer luging around on the trails and riding single track I figured the XC would be a good fit. Maybe the Yamaha 125X then. I just prefer 2 strokes as they are much easier to work on.

Is it hard enduro PRACTICAL ? or just too much work ?

I’ve got the same bike but 2021, PLEASE get the tsp kit, game changer

For trail riding alone or with friends the 150 is perfect but for the more gnarly stuff prolly you ll want the 300 downgeared a little. For the muddy stuff I prefer the 300 which gives me the torque needed to lug over stuff without working the clutch too much. That being said the new gen KTMs have a feather like clutch action compared to older models, making it so much more forgiving on your forarm.

We all go after the bigger engine but realistically 150 is all you need for this type of riding 👍

I ride a KTM 200… by far the most fun bike I’ve ever ridden… ridden a lot of 300’s too… but just have more fun on the small bore bike

Midwest is the best

I want a 250 2t or a 125 what should i get i am 15

Ya dude, it’s much better going out on your own, in terms of creating content and focusing on yourself. It’s also cool in a group but nothing beats the solo stuff

Awesome video

I ride by myself 50% of the time, i am just scared of my bike breaking down in the middle of nowhere xD but a part from it i like it

Where was this , where you went riding

I have a Beta 200 and i makes me grin like an idiot. So light and you can ride it flat out without scaring yourself. You MUST do a back to back test with the 300. Maybe timed. I suspect there would be nothing in it.
