I was thinkin' that was looking familiar. Some of the best roads in Texas. And, the best time of the year to ride them.. . . . So a great mask free town of Leaky Texas ate the local cafe 10 bucks to stuff ville. . . .
Haven't you ever Bought anything on EBay?Wow after a day on the trails your bike still looks perfectly clean !!!
HA HA!! Track and mellow trails will keep a 300 in pristine condition like yours. Come on out here and ride some of the trails that flat spot rims, gouge swing arms, and smash pipes.Haven't you ever Bought anything on EBay?
Pictures can make it look immaculate,
Then you get it, What a pile!
A couple days after a light rain, No dust,, No Mud.
Yes ... you don't have to trust the photos when you buy on ebay. Once I ordered an inflatable doll like this ...Haven't you ever Bought anything on EBay?

KTM 300 is a fantastic bike. But a money pit. There is a pretty long list of must do stuff to keep it reliable. Safety wire upper shock bolt, weld powervalve gear pin, re route wire harness, purchase exhaust flange support, etc.your not surprised I didn't ride , my excuses rain and cold , hell sometimes I'm just lazy on the weekend . but did get to check out a friends KTM 300 xc w tp I (have to put a space between letters or "Mac' don't like it " . a very nice bike , it has the gears in my head turning ..... might make a change soon . I really like that KTM , it was on my list originally , but the honda was such a screaming deal , but now im thinking .......
Yes such a money pit. I'm going broke on gas, oil and tires. Imagine I even had to replace the chain, wheel bearings and fork seals on my 2002 300exc last year. Totally unacceptable after only 10 years. So I don't know what I was thinking to buy a 2019 te300i this year. More gas, oil and tires. I'm riding this one even more so might even have to buy a sparkplug and chain after 100 hours. Money pit.KTM 300 is a fantastic bike. But a money pit.

Depends on where and how you ride. Screaming across the desert at race pace, slamming through rock gardens, running over 300 degrees temps for miles on slow walking pace trails, etc will show the true reliability of a machine.My 2017 150 XC-W and 125SX has been flawless! Way higher quality than the YZs, I had before. The YZs didn't have any problems but compared side by side every part on the KTM is made to higher standards.
