KTM 300 EXC 2014

The "big" two-stroke engine was newly developed in 2017 and is used on the 250 and 300. The electric starter is no longer "flange-mounted" but compactly integrated. Professionals have said that the 300 is actually too powerful for them. For me, however, it is THE 2-stroke recommendation, especially for hobby riders. With the map selector, you can choose the "mild" mapping here and also fall back on the weaker spring for the exhaust control. In practice, you can ride it in a gear higher than the 250 and it becomes quite tame. The new balancer shaft offers a big plus in ride comfort: significantly less vibration!

The KTM 300 EXC remains the reference in the hard enduro segment and offers a first-class overall package for sporty riders. The powerful but easily controllable engine, precise suspension and modern technology make it the ideal choice for both tough enduro bike competitions and demanding off-road adventures. Some details such as the tight rear end and the tank pump could be improved, but overall the bike impresses with an impressive blend of power, agility and rideability.
