Holy smokes been waiting for this to hit!!! These 350s and 300s are really catching my attention lately 🤘
Solid review - stoked for mine to come in! Been on each iteration of the last few KTM/Husky bikes (14/16 KTM, 16/17/19/20/21/22 Huskies). Appreciate the details, and as a heavier guy (210), a slightly stiffer spring makes a world of difference. Already got the next spec setup, and itching to get some time on it. Hoping to do more uploads once that time comes. Thank you for all y'all do!
Just sold my 450 and have the 350 now and I won't ride anything else bike is butter love it
What is the best link to solve the linkage rising rate issue on the 23’s?
Thanks for all you do Keefer!
Kris, really value your reviews, what’s your preference regarding the SX-F vs FC 350’s.? Looking for more low-end but I’m 5’5 and a lower overall ht would be nice.Do you know if the bikes are tuned the same? Thinking I could get more air into the Husky, thanks 👊🏻
Great video Boys. Question is tho, 350 4T or 300 2T?
What's the email you mention in the video to get in touch with you guys? I am seriously considering to buy the FC350 (rode twice the 250 2023 and felt very good from the beginning), but still not sure if buying ktm or husky... (ps I own a CRF 250 2022). Spoken with Italians pro and they say there is no difference at all between the two bikes while riding.I am confused!
Yes, 350ies we like
how would that be as a woods bike?
Thoughts how the 24 FC 350 might translate to the 24 FE 350. TOO many hrs on my '17 FE 350. 6'2", +35mm seat and concerned about how they reduced size.
Air Forks don't suck...unless you ride a Yamaha with SSS forks. Then you can feel the "suck"
I have a FX350 with KYB A KIT AND FACTORY BRAKES……..DAMN NEAR PERFECT.
Where did u get the a kit ?
@@evans4119 Technical Touch in Belgium ask for Scott. The factory brakes are from Husqvarna/KTM, ECU Aim Taipan from Tomasin in Italy.
I am the same weight and would like to see Eddie on a 125 or 150. Plus I am 20 years older.
No footage of keefer on it?
So someone who’s 5’6” and 168 lbs would be pretty solid, right ?
I’m 5’7 and 165. It’s perfect
I do not understand Husqvarna giving the FC350 more bottom end.
If someone wants more bottom they already have options... Either get the KTM 350 or get a 450.
One of the defining characteristics of the 350 since it's inception has been light bottom end response. It's why vets feel confident on it.
Adding bottom end makes no sense and totally goes against what this bike was popular for.
I foresee a lot of riders benefiting from a ECU reflash to actually lower the torque and give the bike it's original characteristics.
Ugh I couldn’t disagree more. 350’s haven’t sold because vets want low end torque, not power up top. They want smaller 450’s, not bigger 250’s. They want to short shift and ride around in a higher gear, not scream the bike.
@@se11459 350's are KTM's best selling bike. So the entire notion that they needed changes because sales were down is incoherent.
Secondly, 250's are not screamers. They're torqy down low and fall off flat. Whereas 350s have always been the screamers. And 450s just make power everywhere.
If a vet wants to ride a gear high, they need to be on a 450. Or lose 50 lbs and ride a 350. And riding a gear high is why you wouldnt need to short shift. That's exactly how I ride my 350's. A gear high... In the middle of he power... and if I need to go faster I just twist the throttle.
Worst part about a 250 is the fact that the power falls off so fast and you have to short shift everywhere. Which is how most people ride their bikes. Either way down in the RPM's and use a lot of clutch / need torque. Or a gear too low and way too high in the RPM's.
If you race, and serious about getting another trophy better go 450. If you’re more about being practice moto dude the 350 is easier and more enjoyable to ride.
See the lack of power actually makes me faster, I can carry a faster pace for longer than on my 450. My 450 tires me out, sure I can 3rd gear a whole track but I can on the 350 also with clutch work no problem. If you do an ignition also the 350 doesn’t even really need clutch work anymore, my buddies 22 350 with a vortex is almost identical to riding my 450 but it revs to the moon and it feels lighter/more nimble with less rotating mass. Next bike I will be stepping down to the 350
@@coreyploof217 I just hope they keep the 350 this way. Adding bottom torque is not what 350 owners want. We like the 350 because it's light throttle response and linear power is confidence inspiring.
Riding a slow bike fast is always faster/safer than riding a fast bike slow.
So.. 350 or 300?
NOTE: The linkage of the husky is NOT different from KTM. It is the shock seal that is different and makes the Husky lower. Also, This large vet rider says people who say air forks are not good are "not speaking truth"... what a thing to say. Thousands of people are willing to spend a minimum of $1200 to swap or convert those forks and this joker thinks he is the one who really knows what's up. I love the 350, but due to the brake tech brakes, I will not be buying another Husky... Brembo all the way.
Huska - varna
Everyone says that the 350 has more than enough horsepower and is the best bike ever....then they still get a 450. 🤡
Anyone who isn't faster on a 350 than a 450 is either too lazy to shift or too fat to be on a fucking bike lol
The hell you talking about son. I mean if all 350s are out of stock then yes I suppose you’re right
And yet it sells like hotcakes. The sell out right away, I know that much ... I had a 2018 350, now a 2020 450 (couldnt find a 350) and just put a deposit on a '23 350 to make sure I get one this time. The 350 IS 100% and easier bike to ride for the vast majority of amatuer riders.
@@KWParrish I just picked a 23 350 up today. Always had 450s even as a weekend warrior. Looking forward to the journey with the 350
@BB_23 how you like the 350?
So refreshing to not see trumpy-ping doing racerx videos. Best decision ever by DC to give him the boot!
So not refreshing to always have at least one idiot bringing politics into fucking everything
I bought a 250 and still got divorced☹️
🤣🤣
Definitely not 230lbs he’s more like 250 260
Just say no to 4 strokes!!
