I just received my TSP ERM and med. comp. Head today for my 23 TE300 and super stoked to put it on!!!

Put the med comp kit on my '21 te300i and fell in love with my bike all over again.

Great first impressions video. Similar finding here as well for a dedicated 300SX snowbike build using the TSP MX Tune.

The low RPM lug seems unstoppable.

I'm very impressed at how well it lugs at low rpm, without stalling.

Great review, bike lugs like a tractor now 👌

Great video - thanks for sharing. Did you notice any noticeable difference in the 'snappiness'? I.e. did it become easier to lift the front wheel after these changes?

@TokyoOffroad

5 ай бұрын

It's snappy enough for me (can easily raise the front wheel). The ground was pretty frozen on the Sunday ride so difficult to fully test. I'll post further videos as I gain more ride time with it, but liking it so far...

wow!! i would have it. anyway, it looks very similar to the mountains and courses in Korea here.

I just put same kit on my 24, anxious to get some seat time.

@@TokyoOffroad I have a 2017 TE300 and love it. I am, however, intrigued by the TBI motor and am considering investing the money in a new 2024 model. Since it sounds like you have a 2017 and now a 2024… how would you compare the engine power? (How snappy, how much can you lug, etc?)

Forgot to ask, have you tried the TSP new map with the stock head to see the difference with the medium comp TSP head? I saw in another of your videos that the compression is very similar. I’m looking to buy the TSP kit but the head is 400+ $ CAD. It’s very expensive for just a head when S3 are half the price. I’m wondering if i really need the TSP head or just the ERM will be good.

Do you think an ERM updated map can tune out some of the stutter that is present when cruising or just cracking the throttle not under load on my 2024 EXC 300? TPS is spot on.

@TokyoOffroad

Күн бұрын

Yes, with ERM it's easy to make fueling adjustments and then test to see how it feels. If it's a rich stutter try leaning out the setting at low rpm and test it...

Question for you...did you happen to try the bike with only the ECU re-flash to see if that alone was a huge improvement? The thought being that maybe you wouldn't really need the higher compression cap/insert.

@TokyoOffroad

23 күн бұрын

No, I installed the TSP medium comp head at the same time. For sure the low end burble (due to over richness) would have been solved by only changing to the TSP map. But the stock head insert design really isn't that great (squish band design is very slack). If you do want to try the TSP head, you have two choices: Purchase the full head (which has slightly improved cooling compared to the stock head cap), or purchase only the TSP head insert which is the same as in the full head kit, but use the KTM stock head cap. I'm still very happy with mine. Smooth and linear power. I just got a TSP PV cover (larger volume than stock) which increase bottom and mid power slightly. I'll make a video about it...

Do you find it much easier to run a gear higher over stock form?

Yes, with the TSP ERM kit power is very good and works great for the mountain technical riding I do. Super linear so is easy to control. I wasn’t happy with the stock KTM map, particularly small partial throttle riding felt too rich and blubbery. Big improvement in fuel economy with the TSP map. Using the ERM you can adjust the fuel, ignition and PV settings if you’re not happy with the baseline TSP map. Can also read and reset ECU codes and monitor various data. Highly recommend the TSP ERM, although it’s not cheap.

Kind of surprised to hear it was rich from the factory seeing as the FI on KTM 2 strokes was motivated by euro emission regulations. I suppose the carb bikes were always rich from the factory as well.

@TokyoOffroad

5 ай бұрын

The bike ships from the factory with a super restricted low emissions map, restricted airbox and pipe. To run properly all this needs to be changed (install the competition map, regular pipe and remove airbox restriction). The competition map on the TBI seems to be over rich (from my experience)...

@vaenii5056

Ай бұрын

They definitely were not. Typically they came with a heavily restricted pipe and smaller jets etc. so you could theoretically start the bike without immediately drowning the engine. They were never meant to run in this configuration. They would run absolutely terribly and overheat. It was done to pass regulations. Presumably emission regulations, but consequently it also offered flexibility what came to registration and license classes (A1, A2, A). If you have lived in a country where it hasn't been possible to register 2-strokes anyway then it could be this is something you haven't had to deal with. It is possible that the manufacturers shipped the bikes without any kind of restrictions to begin with or the dealerships simply removed them before selling the bikes to the customers. After all it used to be as simple as switching the pipe to "unrestricted closed-course pipe" (came with the bike) and then rejetting and adjusting the carburetor.

@vaenii5056

To give you an idea how badly the carb models ran right out of the box, so to speak, imagine KTM EXC 125 that has been restricted so heavily that it makes something like 6 kW... just to pass the emission regulations of road vehicles. 😄
