Love your stuff man. I really like the experience you have and that you keep your stuff so clean. I try to do the same. I’m also imparting it on my son. If nothing else he’s paying attention to what needs looked at, adjusting or fixing while we’re riding and addressing those things as we clean bikes afterwards. Last weekend we weren’t ready to go and had to miss riding Friday and only got Saturday and Sunday. He pointed out if we’d had our bikes sitting 100% we could have just left. I pointed out that he’s absolutely right, but I’m pushing 50 years old and I’d have tired out by Sunday anyway lol. Thanks for the content!
I called Chase at Letko Cycles per your recommendation and was able to put a deposit on one. Way better pricing than any of the Colorado dealers I spoke to so I am driving out there to get it. My buddy may be getting the standard version from them as well :) Thanks for the tip!
Jeff, as always your videos are amazing. This may be an unfair question but what changes would you make to your set up if you were riding mainly technical desert. I understand may be a bigger front tire etc. but is there anything else you would change? Appreciate it, sir!
Hello I would need to ride your trails to accurately answer your question but I’m guessing i wouldn’t change anything except possibly the front tire if there is a lot of sand.
Hello: No, that's a standard height. I use it on tight trails and use a tall seat for pussy rides. I'm 6'3". You probably need a tall seat for all applications. Seat Concepts are the bomb! I prefer the Comfort model >>> slavensracing.com/shop/complete-comfort-seat-for-ktm-by-seat-concepts/ .
Thanks for the response. I owned a 250xc for a few years and am now on a 200rr. The 250 was a bit fast for me honestly. Would like a new TE bike but can’t seem to pin down which bike would fit me better (250 or 300).
Hi Jeff, can you do a comparison video on the fuel and oil delivery compared to the XC? Just worried that if I get the xc-w, that the motor doesn't get enough oil when riding high speed desert conditions.
I see you added a Combination (Map) Switch, can you confirm the switch actually changes the performance and what part number that switch is? Im guessing its A44039074000
It is stock for now. I'm being rebellious because I totally disagree with spark arrestors. The motorcycle community gets unfair scrutiny from the feds and I'm fed up with their BS. We have to purchase offroad riding permits (in Colorado and many western states) ($25) yet hikers, mtn. bikers, Jeepers, equestrians do not. I pay that fee every year because those funds actually do go towards trail repairs, etc. but just show me one proven example of any dirt bike causing a forest fire from the exhaust. There are none to my knowledge. It's total BS!

Awesome shout out to LETKO Cycles. Gary, Chance and the guys over there are awesome. Can't say enough good things about them. Great video, Jeff.
Yes they are
Love this set up Jeff! I bought a 24 300xcw last fall, I’m gonna stop by your shop over the next couple weeks and pick up some of these mods 👍🏼
Sounds great!

I kinda like that left hand rear brake idea. For some spots
It works great for all trail riding.
Nice - You have the right priorities. Keep having Fun !
Always!
Great video, great parts and service!! Thanks Jeff
Our pleasure!

Just an FYI: Chance has a carrier that can ship your new bike for a fair price. It would save you a lot of driving.
@@slaverace1 you are the man I’ll be getting stuff from your shop. Thank you!!
Beautiful build. You guys rock
Thank you.
Looking to get this as my next bike!
You will not regret it. Do it!
Damn helicopter! 😂
Great build Jeff!
Thank you.
I love having my rear brake on the bars.
After experiencing the all the benefits, it makes you think why don't the come like this from factory?

J/k great build
Thank you.
Mako 360 bar mount, Jeff. I see orange bushings.
As I mentioned in the video, I forget something in every video I make. Sorry Lance, I love Makos.
What left hand rear brake lever are you using?
Rekluse. slavensracing.com/shop/dual-actuated-left-hand-rear-brake-kit-ktm-berg-hqv-rekluse/
Gotta love the mako 360. How do you run the US Forest volunteer sticker with NO spark arrestor on your bike?
It has an SA now.
I had no doubt. Best channel out there. Just picked up a Hard Enduro, I'll be ordering a 2.1 form you soon.@@slaverace1
Hi is that seat the “tall” seat, if so how tall are you? I’m 6’5” and trying to make it fit better. Thanks

Love the graphics but didn't see them on the Slavens site. Where did you say you got them? Thanks!
FAF Graphics out of Pueblo, CO made these. We will have SR graphics available on our website soon.
Do you have any experience with the new 250 xcw tbi? Curious if it’s a lower powered 300 or a different ride all together (snappier and all that)
Hello Nick:
250s always have a lighter feel, which makes flicking them around easier, and they rev more.
Thanks for the response. I owned a 250xc for a few years and am now on a 200rr. The 250 was a bit fast for me honestly. Would like a new TE bike but can’t seem to pin down which bike would fit me better (250 or 300).
Been Killing my bike for months, 42 hours. Something in my stock forks let go. 24 xcw 300 tbi 😂😂😂 bike is amazing tho
Hi Jeff, I notice no damper on this bike. How are you getting along with it without one?
The suspension is so good I no longer need or want a damper.
@@slaverace1 That really says something about how good the new bike and suspension is setup.
Hi Jeff, can you do a comparison video on the fuel and oil delivery compared to the XC? Just worried that if I get the xc-w, that the motor doesn't get enough oil when riding high speed desert conditions.
Add 1% in your tank 👍👍
Forks and triple clamps are haft the price of the bike
I see you added a Combination (Map) Switch, can you confirm the switch actually changes the performance and what part number that switch is? Im guessing its A44039074000
Yes it does. That # is correct.
is there any difference between 2023 and 2024 ktm exc i mean Xtrig ???
Sorry, Xtrig does not yet offer an adjuster for the `24 PDS shock. They are always late to the party and slow to deliver, so we do not have an ETA.
i have the full kit from my old ktm exc 2023 bike and was wondering if it would fit the ktm ktm exc 2024
For the seat, is it a Comfort? Comfort Tall? Comfort XL? Thanks.
Tall Comfort Seat.
Just curious about your spark arrestor choice ? Silencer looked stock in the video.
It is stock for now. I'm being rebellious because I totally disagree with spark arrestors. The motorcycle community gets unfair scrutiny from the feds and I'm fed up with their BS.

Why didn,t you mention amything about the mako 360 bar mount
Forgot.
Why didn,t you talk about your mako 360 bar mount
Sorry, I forgot.
Hi. Any oil leaks ,sweating or issues what's so ever on this bike?
Definitely not.
How does the fuel economy compare to the TPI motor?
I have not done an accurate comparison or test but it seems similar to the TPi.
What brand of left hand rear brake did you put on that bike?
The best brand, Rekluse, in stock at Slavens Racing. slavensracing.com/shop/dual-actuated-left-hand-rear-brake-kit-ktm-berg-hqv-rekluse/
How tall are you? Inseam?
6'3", 34"
Do you have a straight rate or progressive rear spring?
Progressive.
What plastics kit are you using?
Stock for now. The only company making them for the `24s is UFO and we have them in stock. slavensracing.com/?s=ufo&post_type=product
Is your exp disc the 3.0 or the new 4.0?
I recently upgraded to the 4.0. Video coming soon.
Looking forward to your honest opinion in the vid comparing the 3.0 and 4.0👍
Have to pull the tank to put oil in. Thats bullshit! Otherwise badass build.
Like he said, they don’t make a tank yet for the XCW, so that tank came off a different bike.
It's not the right tank, he said that. Regardless, what's the big deal pulling the tank? It takes a full 3 minutes.
Do you like the bike?
Hello:
I've answered that question several times in videos and in this video.
Sarcasm!!!! Just kidding
Why does ktm tbi run so sputtery down low? It's annoying.
Mine does not sputter. Have your dealer upload the latest mapping.
@@slaverace1 I'll do that. It's been about a year since the last update maybe something changed.
What left hand rear brake are you using?
The best one, Rekluse. slavensracing.com/shop/dual-actuated-left-hand-rear-brake-kit-ktm-berg-hqv-rekluse/
