I will keep my 10 year old Beta 300rr with a carburetor!
I sold my Husqvarna TPI 2021 and bought a 2019 GasGas (the last real GasGas) I love the simplicity and throttle control.
Right on! Very well built machines. Had a 2006 200 and loved it back in the day.
For what it’s worth the 2024 beta 2t all have carbs still lol
2017 Exc
@@csiposmedvesajt Take a ride on a new TBI XCW and you will let your 17 carb bike sit in the corner of the garage like I do.
I ride Sherco, I love the KTM stuff but personally I prefer the carbed set up. It takes a bit more tweaking at first but once it's set up I think it's more reliable. Thank you for the informative video.
I have 2024 300 tbi and in one month i have about 28 hours on it and no problems yet! runs great no boiling problems, i did installed a extra fan on the left radiator for better cooling in case of feeling the bike a little to hot, i am a agresive rider, i did not foul any spark plug even tho i add oil to the gas tank too and i have the oil pump still. The bike is great.
My 2024 runs flawless and the suspension is unbelievable, it has literally changed my riding.
What do you mix the xc at 60:1
if you need a bike without electrical issues you can try to find a low mileage KTM/Husqy from 2017-2019 (enduro or cross country) that has a carburetor. All my 3 XC/TX bikes had over 300+ hours without problems
Unfortunately, it is difficult to find that motorcycle in good condition
My issue in the first 10 hours of the new 2024 bike was that oil control light was constantly blinking and nobody knows what that problem is.
They changed two times the oil lever sensor, and that solved the problem. that’s the problem I had on the TBI bike
Keep updating about glitches. Good job. Thank you very much
110 hrs on a 24 xc-w, tbi no issues so far bike bin awsum,,im 220 lbs and just trail ride but wouldnt trade it for anything,
Thanks for the message, do you have a problem with overheating or does it work harder on idle when it's cold
I’ve got 70 plus hours on a stock 2023 XC 300 with no issues. Never had a plug foul. Only issue I ever had was the fuel line quick connect, in connected.
I am hearing that the Pistons explode is that true? Did you ever do a top end?i just picked up a 2023 300 XC
To avoid the bogging is simples… don’t use the 2t oil recommended by Ktm, it’s creates to much carbon that blocks the port of the press sensor cylinder.
It’s happened to me with my TPI after less then 50hrs. Then I used another oil and never happened again until I sold it with + 300 hrs.
Yeah I use motul 710 2t for years now and no fouled plugs or bogging issues.
Where to buy the scan tool you talked about?
Rieju have brought back the pre ktm gasgas enduro range,carb and kicker sold me on one,boy this is how I remember a big bore 2 stroke to be
Great video and very informative 👍. I own a TBI and it does not like the cold weather (-2°C and lower)
What happens at low temperature?
@@TheDirtbikeRider Engine cools too much, no idle. Had to tape one radiator.
Could you possibly provide a link to the diagnostic tool?
This video is misleading at best. 135hrs on my '23 300XC, original spark plug no issues, rode the bike at -20c and worked fine. I also pinned this thing to the boards when it was new constantly while riding in the snow; check my channel for my winter riding videos, never had a piston failure. Error codes mean nothing if the bike is running correctly, no point in clearing them, just ride it. The only real issue I see with these bikes are, the fuel mixture lean on the top-end and you will probably not realize this until you ride in sand dunes for a full day. I have also ridden 120km/s on a tank of fuel didn't run out. The tank still a little left in it, and at the end of the ride it was probably 20kms of road riding. Can you clear codes on a 2023 with the TSP module, which I intend to buy to fix the lean condition on top, also can be used to check your throttle position sensor.
Thanks for the video. Very interested in the comparison of my 22 te300i tpi and the new TBI.
I have both now. Have about 2-3 hours on the tbi ktm . First thoughts was disappointing with the power at first but its mainly just low end and you can tune it. But I swear this new bike makes me ride even better. The suspension is AMAZING and the motor runs smooth. Im not sure what it is but i am more confident and percise with this bike over my huskh tpi. If your considering getting one ...do it . Thank me later. The only thing u can not stand is the start/stop button . And the turning radius is noticeably now as sharp
What is better for country side and little hill riding , TBI OR TPI?
Video always on point! Can you please point us to a video or people, forum etc that have solved the problem with Fuel that's left in the tank, as currently we are trying to resolve the problem, but without luck so far. Cheers
Taco Moto has a kit which extends the fuel pickup to the bottom of the tank. There's a UA-cam video on it. The kit is pricey but might be worth it. It's well built.
I would love to have a new ktm , but the betas have been so reliable for me.
Diagnostic tool??
You must be KTMs dream customer! It’s the manufacturer who should solve their product’s faults and problems NOT the customer! KTM have been nothing but headaches since I bought my first 640 over 20 years ago. Great bikes when the work but KTM have zero quality control or testing unfortunately.
I love my carbed KTM I refuse to get a new one. Once I feel like its too outdated I'll go Yamaha. As it is now as long as I can keep getting parts im keeping it. I'm not spending KTM money on an Austrian bike with a bunch of Taiwan parts on it. It just feels like the outsourcing is the issue.
Right a 8:15 bout the Yamaha YZ. Not a better machine, but simple, efficient, and reliable, more than any other bike.
411 hrs on my 2020, 1 crank and 5 top ends and 1 set of clutch frictions.
The piston hitting the crank is a well-known issue. I really think KTM should offer frre parts and labor to fix that problem. It's not weaker materials. It's from using the wrong part. I have a 2018 Beta 300 race edition and love it. It has a few quirks, but nothing like the new TBI KTM bikes.
bbarker - that has not been proven at all. There are guys on the internet, and only a few, that have broken their motors and then blame it on this BS. If you've been around the video Moto world much, this is how they always work it to see if they can get something for free or they are mad they didn't get their way. KTM isn't perfect but when guys do real stupid crap with their bikes and things go wrong they look to point fingers and it's never their fault. hundreds of thousands of new XC's TBI's out there with absolutely no issues at all. What about those bikes? Anyway, don't believe the dumb crap.
Svi noviteti donose sve vise elektronike koja ce u buducnosti i tek kako praviti probleme koje vlasnici nece moci sami resavati,pogotovo kada to budu motocikli stari nekoliko godina,svaki ima svoje prednosti i mane ali i dalje sam pristalica ciste mehanike,zato je moj izbor Sherco 2024.
Piston issues were due to silica content not being correct in the corona apocalyptic times with raw material availability, therefore pistons were too brittle and they were cracking. Not all but enough to be out of the average.
So the piston skirt hitting the crank had nothing to do with it then??? 🙄🙄🙄
I know why vertex were failing
I've ridden a 300 EXC 2024 and that was a big mistake, because afterwars I wanted to have one! I'm aiming for a 2026 model, hopefully the biggest problems would be solved.
There are no issues, at least no more issues than any other bike. I posted up about my Beta being a solid bike and there were 5 guys right away saying how their new Beta's are POS's. These new TBI's are the best bike ever to come off the line, that includes any recent dirt bike made.
@user-qn6tf6ee1q Go ride and own one...
yeah i´m in the video💪💪😁
Pistons whack the balancer on the 300,don't ask me how I know😮
lol rationalizing having to grind down an OE piston's height to prevent problems is a new level of bleeding orange.
$12g to fix issues NO thanks. Not all of us can afford $14-$15g KTMS like Slavens lol
I will wait till they come "race ready" or a few generations in.
Aqui no Brasil 🇧🇷 custa 80,000.00 reais em dólar sai a 16.500 dólar
Do you own the 2024 EXC, keen to know as looking at your vids on this model their are a number contradictions your making which is very misleading.
This guy has no idea. These bikes are VERY reliable witth minimal issues. There are tbi bikes out there with reported 200hrs and no issues. Mine is pretty close to stock and i have had not a single issue. The fuel pump works with the slash effect. There is no hose in the inside of the fuel pump either. That is a completely made up issue. The pump has an absorbant sock filter similar to an automobile. We ride hard and race primarily desert hare scrambles. This guy has ZERO clue on anything that has to do with this bike. Im not a KTM fanboy, we have all sorts of colors in the garage. Dont listen to guys who have no idea what they are talking about.
I love my beta 2022
you simply don/'t buy new year model bikes from KTM, TBI is for sure better design then TPI but it need some time to mature.
на дворе 2024 год а я хочу ктм 2017 года карбюраторный,мощь,сила,надежность💪💪💪💪
Yamaha yz250/yz250x no pussy start but boy it's so reliable, cheap to buy new and fun!
Skirt is too long. Get a wiseco piston for replacement
"ready to race"... lmfao...
Whos the guy with the TBI and gold forks ? How tall is he? He knows his stuff
??
This is a pretty click baity title, the issue of the error code, fouling plugs and bogging where on the early 2023 XC's which were the first TBI's to come out and have been fixed with a software update, usually for free, or a small diagnostic fee. Don't let anyone fool you, the 2024 300 XC-W is hands down the best motorcycle made out of the box for trail / enduro. If you think any of the carbed models are better, your lying to yourself. The electronic power valve and TBI combo is just simply on another level. That's not even mentioning the massive improvement the new fork and rear PDS shock bring to the table, again the new stock suspension is on another level.
Perfectly said. These bikes are game changers. All other manufacturer's are already working to imitate the KTM TBI system...
🤣🤣
No doubt the TBI is going to be great.
Lucky KTM were able to learn from the aftermarket on how to fix their own EFI system 👍
Brilliant Austrian engineering there 👍
Companies like TSP were fixing factory rider bikes for people like Graham Jarvis.
@@Danger_mouse I have yet to see a bike from any manufacturer that he’s been so perfect that the aftermarket didn’t fix some issues. Ktm and all the others have their hands tied with emissions and regulations, none of them are perfect. This is still the best bike stock to date.
@@Rickshaw199
Perhaps you could try looking outside the KTM group
You have obviously never ridden a perfectly set up carb bike ! The TBi is only on another level to a TPi which was extremely poor and when you talk about the new shock that it clearly shows your absolute ignorance on bike set up - the settings in that shock are a very bad joke
The only problem is they foul plugs like mad.
Go to your dealer and there is an update that is free and you will not foul a plug again (if you even have a bike).
Man, this voiceover is tough to listen to. I could elaborate, but how about you let me do one for you? I'd love to narrate your next video (for free). I know you'll be much happier with a passion-driven narration instead of this overly annunciated generic audiobook style you have in this video.
Your scripts are fantastic and this narration simply doesn't do your work the justice it deserves!
I’m done with ktm for so many reasons
I could be here all day trashing them
I’ll just stick with beta, TM and maybe the Japanese brands
I absolutely love my beta 300 and 350 race edition amd my tm 300 en
carb conversion kit!!"problem solved
I don't know anything about the new TBI models, but after getting my 2023 Husqvarna te300 TPI dialed in, it's fantastic. I'll never go back to carburetors
Yeah, by a new bike and then go back to 2005
Manufactured in China/India 😖
False.
Only the 790 is
China made parts in orange bikes!
Go blue, ride yamaha made in Japan!
These KTMs are going to get even worse once they start building them in China next year.
At least you'll be able to get plenty of parts through Wish for them lol
Only the 790 road bikes are going to be manufactured in China.
They will never build their flagship/premier models in China. Only the 790 and other cheaper models are.
@@eastwood4006 That's exactly right and what I've been saying. People like to read article titles and then make up their own stories.
Ktm being overpriced garbage again
😮😮😮😮😮
wtf
Total rubish
Is this AI? terrible
Just give a guy $10 to narrate and stop using this AI trash
KTM IS NOW MADE IN CHINA!! NO MORE KTM FOR ME!
