    This is the best trialbike made today. I've had mine for almost a year and it is bullet proof. No radiators to crush, it's carborated, so you don't have to deal with O2 sensors, mapping, etc. Just a great trailbike that can handle anything you throw at it. Put gas in, clean the air filter and ride!

      Yeah agreed! It’s kind of a hidden gem as most people overlook it, too bad cause they don’t know what they’re missing

    Its got a far superior dash to my 2021 KTM 690ER! What defines GPX is that it seems that they listen to customer/dealer feedback and respond quickly in making the required improvements. Very commendable attitude indeed, how we all wish the other manufacturers whether from Austria or Japan did the same eh? I am going to get one of these 250 air-cooled bikes as a trail bike for just playing around off-road.

      Well if you do you’ll love it! Ktm makes a great machine, but not everyone needs that much machine at that kind of money. You can get 80% there or more with a GPX. I keep up with the other brands just fine

    Just got my 300r and I'm loving it!!!!! Still waiting for my wife's 250s... But if it's anything like my 300 I'm sure we'll like it too! Can't wait to see what the 250e can do. Keep us posted! Congrats on the bike!

    Awesome! I always thought that was the little unicorn of the GPX bikes. I just picked up a '21 Kayo K6 250EFI tonight, after the dealer let me test ride it. Its got the newer DOHC NC250 motor. Just a few miles of break in so far, but damn am I impressed. I am setting up the bars, sag, etc this weekend and can report back to you after I give it a real ride. And also looking forward to your review of the 250E, your vids are great and really detailed. That 6 speed FSE250E was on my radar if i was better with carb's, and could have rode/seen one in person. Congrats!

    • @LCARSADV

    Who should get a 250E vs a 300R (besides price)??? The simple power plant and lighter weight make it very attractive. Seems like a crazy good woods bike that isn’t a 2 stroke.

    • @LCARSADV

    Just got my 450. Put around 20 miles on it without the pegs haha. Bike has been great so far and the quality seems amazing for the price. It seems like what the crf450L should have been but for almost half the price. Hope it lives up to the hype.

    • @LCARSADV

    • @LCARSADV

      They are pretty similar, I hear their new ones are fuel injected which is cool, but I kind of like simplicity!

    I have 2021.5 FSE300R and 250E, both are great bikes. The 250E is an excellent woods bike. I have not had any problems with either of them, other than some dumb stuff that I caused "operator error". I'd like to have a TSE, but I'm waiting for GPX to develop their 300 two-stroke before buying another.

    • @LCARSADV
      @LCARSADV  3 роки тому

      I hear there might be a prototype in the US...I do love my TSE a lot though, it seems like the perfect bike for the most part. Yeah most of my crap is operator error lol

    I just got a 300R too and I am really impressed as well. Unfortunately I can't register it for the street here in California but that's okay because I bought it for a dedicated dirt bike. I'm really liking that 250E can't wait for riding impressions.

      Yes, especially what CA is doing to the sport coming up. Go to a DMV service in Phx and u can register there street legal in AZ without an address. Or South Dakota plate, there is even an online service that will do it for you {$299, but worth it getting around CA's bullsh*t...iv done AZ and SD out there, got checked and legit]

      Initial impression is it feels a little heavier than the tse and that’s to be expected , but it definitely feels lighter than the 300. We’ll see how that translates to the trail soon

    How is the seat comfort? My SSR 189 seat has zero padding. I’ve been eyeballing this one or a 300.

    • @LCARSADV
      @LCARSADV  2 роки тому +1

      Not comfortable, but enduro bikes aren’t for sitting for long periods anyways. I don’t have an issue too much though. If you were to dual sport it I would invest in a seat concepts.

    How does the power and suspension differ from the 300 R to the 250e I am going to order one of them this week

    • @LCARSADV
      @LCARSADV  3 роки тому +1

      The suspension is the same across all the bikes. Personally I think the E’s power isn’t that much less than the 300 but it is, but I like the e better so far as it’s lighter and flickier. But if you like efi and more hp the 300 is the way to go. I’ll know more to compare as I torture the e in some upcoming rides.
