@AnonYoukno 9 месяцев назад

IDK, I get 45 miles and have a little fuel left in the bottom left side, light is on and I have to ride it aggressively to get it to go back out (maybe I shouldn't worry about that) but it gives you anxiety. So 45 miles is crap and a big tank will get you what 10 or 15 more? Anyone doing big 70 mile+ loops on these things?

@GOTDRAGONS 4 месяца назад

Random question but what chain slack are you running on the 23/24s? I’ve heard the book is incorrect and KTM had a bulletin not long ago saying that it’s actually 68-70mm.

@highlandcycles 4 месяца назад

I do it old school. By feel. Probably more than the book says.

@GOTDRAGONS 4 месяца назад

@@highlandcycles if you have the time you should look into the whole chain slack thing. Because there are a lot of people arguing saying “but the book says 58mm” and then people saying the book is wrong and KTM put out a notice about it be 68-70mm instead. And then some people are saying their air boxes say 62. Could make for an interesting video. And this issue is apparently because they changed the angle of the engine by tilting it back

@keffjames2747 Год назад

Me and a friend took our new 23 300 xc TBI out this past weekend in TN and I have 4 hours on mine now and we are at about 500 to 1000 feet of elevation and I got 31mpg. I rode 40 miles and climbed a few extra big hills and I used 1.3 gallons of gas. I took my tank off the bike when I got home and emptied it in a gallon jug and I had exactly 1 gallon left.

I'm so glad I snapped up the last 2019 300 XC in the south east when I did. Put on a lectron and tuned it once and everyone who has a TPI said it runs better than theirs. Still get offers on the bike for more than I paid.

@200xcBruce Год назад

Yeh same with my KTM the fuel level strip must be above fuel and get warm to send the signal to the dash. Very good. I am thinking accelerating is what forces fuel up into the pump cavity. You fast guys could wheelie that last pint of fuel out.

@wykittypreps5794 Год назад

On a gas topic... what your thought on using 91 octane gas mixed with 60-1 motorex 2t? The manual calls for 95 octane but 93 is all we have in my area.

@mikeyfaulknor9970 Год назад

Buy a can of vp T4 and mix half that and 91 that’s what I run

@highlandcycles Год назад

91 will be fine.

@marcusfaries3288 5 месяцев назад

I did this test with my 2024 TE 300 today. Breaking in the bike with less than 70% throttle most of the time riding easy single track and some easy enduro canyons. Fuel light came on at 38mi. Bike began to sputter at 59mi. I was riding easy smooth single track with an occasional little bump in the trail when it "ran out of fuel" There was about 2 inches of fuel left in the left wing of the OEM tank. Not too bad. I'll carry a 30oz bottle of fuel for now. Maybe get the acerbis tank in time.

@Duken4evr29 Год назад

Nice video! Hope you feel better soon. Even while sick you ride better than I do... KTM must be using super secret absorber pad fuel storage technology in the fuel pump pickup bag. Perhaps they contracted with "Depends". 😆 Kidding aside, good to see the system works. That bike sounds great too.

@LocalGarage Год назад

Thanks for doing the test Morgan. I'm not sure that I'd trust the bottom 1/4-1/3 for motocross due to the repercussions of a bog in the power delivery, but it sure looks like a good design for Offroad since it eliminated the failure point of the tank outlet line.

@rrandydduke Год назад

Yep just the slightest bog going through some whoops or at a jump face could send you to the hospital . You don’t want to get slammed into a whoop , I had a friend die like that in the Mojave desert.

@eriknash8783 4 месяца назад

Takes a while before the gas light comes back on because the pump cools off

@cliftonsr Год назад

I guess pop a few wheelies and keep going up hill and you’ll send the gas back to the pump. Can’t be good on the fuel pump or running lean or dry on the piston if it occasionally pulls air through the system though. KTMs are awesome machines for sure!

@highlandcycles Год назад

Hahaha I get your sarcasm. But I think the bag filter is the key and I think it keeps the pump primed until there isn’t any gas I didn’t notice any lean moments until it stopped.

@bigchuck1675 Год назад

No offense taken. Thanks for the content, enjoy all the updates. What type of gear bag are you using? Looks like it distributes the weight well on the shoulders/hips with great storage. I have a TX300 Hairitage on order, super pumped after watching your videos.

@NickCottreau Год назад

@tkrey23 Год назад

I would be interested to see 3 range tests. I know that's a fair bit of riding. map 1 and map 2, both at 40:1 like you've been running, then map 1 at 60:1. similar riding area for all 3. See if the mix ratio factors in or not. Do FI bikes typically get better MPG or worse at higher elevation? Less are = less gas but less power = working bike harder... so not sure.

@highlandcycles Год назад

Normally a bike will get better mileage at altitude because the mixture is leaned out to match the lack of oxygen.

@dustinmoore8909 Год назад

@eric6rock Год назад

I remember one time i ran out of gas at fox raceway on the kx100. It was a little scary but i had some people help me put some fuel in got back to my brothers truck. It's been 2 years not riding, as i have been working and saving a lot.At first i was considering a yz250 2t, then the 23 300 SX but now the 300XC sounds perfect. The riding i mostly did was trails at octillo, helendale, apple valley, and big bear and the first year in 2018 summer ive on two motocross tracks. It would be perfect for me since I'm familiar with two stroke power but made more consistent, not a 250f where its heavy and a powerband that im not familiar with, and definitely not a 450 where its too much of both. Easier to maintenance and gas tank i can see 😆. I just don't know how to start my way into buying it msrp plus fees or financing it. Thank you for this video 🙏, making this 23 300 XC Shine A lot.

@highlandcycles Год назад

It is an incredible machine

@infidelmat Год назад

Well thats a relief. It's like the tank is an optical illusion lol.

@human1513 Год назад

Thanx for good testing. Unfortunately it does not drain all the gas out. Also sad that it could sputter, or cut out for a second or 2 while it still has gas in the tank. An extreme example is during the 1st racing day recently of the WSX, World Super Cross event in Britain when the fuel pump quit on Chad Reed's 2023 KTM 450 and left him with no power. This caused a big crash & broken bones. KTM just never gets things right. I converted my 2022 KTM 300 XC TpI to "2022.9". Lol. 100% premix (removed the oil injection pump & hose) and relocated a fuel injector from the stupid location of in the cylinder at a transfer port to between the throttle body & reed cage. The relocating of 1 or both injectors produces better throttle response, better power & ensures the motor's bottom end and top end get lubrication every second the motor is started & is running.

@eastsiderc Год назад

Thanks for making this vid man! So many say oh you cant run a two stroke out of gas it will blow up 😂😂😂😂 the dumbest thing Ive ever heard! And nice to know my bike will use up all the crap gas the dealer left in there 😂! Im gonna run 90+ non ethanol hope thats okay because I cant find what to run in my bike. New Sub here bro! 🙏🤝

@highlandcycles Год назад

@noControl556 Год назад

Would be curious to see how it works on flat pavement. Just the acceleration may be enough to splash fuel to the rear section.

@highlandcycles Год назад

Don’t think so. At least not when it gets down low.

@donaldblank8873 Год назад

My opinion is the fuel pump's life get shortened dramatically, There has to be times when the bike is cutting out, Even if you don't notice it because you're at a high rev, Again is just my opinion, And I really don't believe a pro rider would select that bike over a different set up, At least a different tank set up. The uneasy feeling of running out would be a great distraction.

@highlandcycles Год назад

I’ve just seen more trouble than good with them. I have definitely seen good ones too. Just weirdly inconsistent

@mikeh423 Год назад

@@highlandcycles virtually all TPI failures can be attributed to user errors. These bikes have a different fuel map when the coolant temp is low and run very rich. Idiots try to hold the throttle open and get the engine to rev clean like a carb engine and it destroys pistons. Just ride it about exactly one mile and you will feel the ECU switch maps and it leans out and runs great. Don’t go past about half throttle in warm up map.

@mikeh423 Год назад

@@highlandcycles same for TBI bikes. DO NOT rev the piss out of the engine when cold. It isn’t a carbed engine. Even when. Engine is fully warmed up, don’t rev the piss out of the engine when it isn’t under a load. The ECU will pull fuel at high RPM if you are in neutral revving it. No matter how much you think the engine sounds loaded up, it isn’t, it just different. Just wait for it to warm up, then hammer down.

@mikeh423 Год назад

@@highlandcyclesMixing oil in the fuel on TPI bike will cause lean conditions and piston/cylinder damage. fuel/oil ratio and fuel/air ratio are two completely different things and are not related. The ECU in these bikes runs a fixed map with no way to adjust fuel/air mixture because it doesn’t use an O2 sensor. Adding oil in the gas of a TPI bike makes the fuel/air mixture go lean because you replaced some of the fuel being injected into the cylinder with oil. The lean mixture results in high EGT and destroys the piston/cylinder even with the extra oil you just put in it. Many TPI bikes are ruined by mixing oil in the fuel.

@mikeh423 Год назад

@@highlandcycles The crankcase pressure sensors on these bikes do fail sometimes. Some guys have several hundred hours with no CCPS failures, I had one at 8 hours. If the CCPS fails the bike still runs and will get you home, but it runs very rich like it reverts to the warm up mapping. Do not try and run the engine hard if you experience a CCPS failure. If you do you will damage a piston/ cylinder. Instead just ride it at low throttle/low RPM back to the truck and switch it out with a new one. They cost about $50 and are easy to replace.

@richards0170 Год назад

Surely the force/motion of the bike moving forward against the body of water will force the fuel to the back of the tank and into the "pump sump"? try moving a jug of water half full and you'll notice the fluid move towards the back of the container.

@highlandcycles Год назад

It seems to work well. The only problem is if you are on smooth ground or going slowly

@mikehuffman8208 Год назад

I see this as a big issue if you're low on fuel and have to ride a long transfer section on a road - any truth to that? I'm gonna need a bigger tank if I end up with one of these ... that motor's going to suck a lot more fuel with my 220lb ass + gear.

@minkusmcminkus7598 Год назад

What are they thinking ? Want us right off the dead dino juice

@donaldblank8873 Год назад

Still my opinion, I see no benefit of the tbi set up, If anything there would be less horse power, Simply because more oil is mixed with gas, TPI is more separated, Better Ignition, Add a fly wheel weight to that TPI and you will have A ridable trail bike. Exactly what you get with an EC250 or 300, Everyone is buying these mods to change Tbi To run exactly the same as A TPI. Again in my opinion obviously KT m's best year, It's 2022, Especially when you could have a kickstart. Have already broke my stupid button. I do add a part so I could push start it. I love my 2023 gas gas gas EC250, It's awesome, When it blows up, il rebuild it and say it's awesome. And it was about 4000 to 5000 cheaper.

I think the key is the filter bag. It’s different from before and I think it holds fuel in a way that the pump can use it. So any fuel that hits it is absorbed. Like an old holley fuel mat

@@highlandcycles ...You did a great video concerning the tank & pump. But I still think the tank and pump should suck from the very bottom.

@@goodboyringo9716 I agree. I’m just surprised that it got almost all the gas

I'm wondering if the old tank can be installed on this bike , may be better. From all the bikes in the world , I have never seen a manufacture build this type of tank.

No it won’t fit. Frame is different

I own a ‘22 and am about to buy a ‘23. I’ve done extensive research to see if ANY bling can be brought over to the new bike. The ONLY part I’ve found that will work is the replaceable rear brake pedal tip. ALL NEW BIKE! It’s the first year that all KTM big bikes, 4 stroke and 2 stroke use the same frame and bodywork.

@@tomjoad4168 Thumbs up. The only things I don't like is .... Not kick start provision , new tank/ pump , and power valve set up.

I think sherco also has this kind of tank design for some years now
