    Great video! Listening to that 300 is almost as much fun as riding my 200!!!

    Rocks are good fun. It's all about momentum, and good tires.

    Lol I was just on them trails last night and just stumbled onto your video looking up the Ktm 300 lol I was like man that looks like the parking lot I parked at the trails then I seen you go to the Jeep trails and had to cross the road and I knew exactly lol.

    I am learning that the most important mod you can make to your bike is suspension and getting that really dialed in. Engine mods are great and all but it is harder to ride fast if your suspension sucks.

  • @seairis616

    I'm about an hour from there. Would love to go riding there. The virus pandemic has kept me very busy with work and dont know when I'll have time to ride again.

    Me buying a bike for the back of my rig has nothing to do with friends or not. It's transportation for a trucker...we have to park at truck stops at night. Maybe I'd like to ride a few miles into town and see the sights maybe not eat truck stop food or sleep in a rig every night

  • @piercer4882

  • @trentcarter616

  • @backyardboosters9128
    @backyardboosters9128 6 років тому

    I know from using a gopro that hill around 3 08 is actually a decent little incline. Pretty crazy how the 300 just dang near idles up it.

    • @GladiusJon
      @GladiusJon  6 років тому +2

      Yea man, this 300 is like none other. you got the 4 stroke like torque, and the 2 stroke rip all in one.. Such a legend.

    ok, so are we reading this correctly? This is what the KTM is made for? Getting stuck in the mud puddle in the middle of the road, while your buddies ride thru it. LOL Better change the title lol.
    Looks like you guys are having a blast, wish I was there riding with you,!!!!!

  • @johnchafin3817

      Next video, added a little something

    • @johnchafin3817
      @johnchafin3817 6 років тому

      Looking forward to it. Thinking about a 300 2T, either a Beta or KTM. They seem similar in form and function.

    • @GladiusJon
      @GladiusJon  6 років тому +1

      Yea cant go wrong with ether. I think the beta looks sexier, but I went with ktm because there is a dealer only 30 mins away.

  • @Swindog00

    Hi mate. Question on the camera settings...what is the resolution etc and where do you have it set up on the helmet? I like your vids just farting around with your mates. Exactly what we do.

    • @PatFarrellKTM
      @PatFarrellKTM 6 років тому

      Enough that I recognized it from the parking lot before you even hit the trails. Its 3 or so hours from me here in Philly. I like it. You should come up to FRO in PA, its only 3 hours from Tysons.

    • @GladiusJon
      @GladiusJon  6 років тому +1

      Pat Farrell nice, i will add it to my list to ride!!

    • @PatFarrellKTM
      @PatFarrellKTM 6 років тому

      There is a thread in Thumpertalk .com for "RAC meet-up thread" under their forum/dirt bike/regional/northeast where we plan casual rides. I often ride mid-week but I'm up there a couple of times a week. (FRO and RAC are the same place)

    I like your video looks like some fun riding, although I do have to say your bike sounds pretty slobbery. I think she needs leaned out jussst a tad and you'd have a way smoother running machine.

      SkinnySkinch , watch out for the rangers at Brown MTN. They are dicks.

    • @Jlow67WV
      @Jlow67WV 6 років тому +1

      Short version is that you are not allowed to have alcohol there. There is one little sign that says it. Cop rolls up on us, 5 guys, no music, first night there, on my birthday, not causing ANY issues. We all have a beer next to us and did now know the law. 5 tickets, bam. Now I get it, I broke the rules. But he was rude, degrading, and accused of us bribery when a friend offered him a cookie. We were genuinely being nice and polite. Later we found out from the locals that he is a jerk park Ranger and even though there have been many complaints about him, he is still there. jmo.

    • @Jlow67WV
      @Jlow67WV 6 років тому +1

      But it is a nice place to ride. Just make sure you know the rules. Also, don't go off map.

    • @SkinnySkinch
