I Bought a UNICORN! TM EN 300 ES FI 2 Stroke Dirt Bike First Look! 

I own a 2019 TMracing EN 144 and a 2021 TMracing EN 300, both 2 T's with carbs, large fuel cells and GPR stabilizers. Your comment about the "spot weld issue" on the swing arm is misguided. With the rear tire/wheel off remove the rear brake caliper from the swing arm and you will notice the rear caliper support is not only welded to the inside of the swing arm it runs all the way through the swing arm and is welded/secured on the outside too. I can assure you there are no random welds on these machines. I got my first taste of TMracing motorcycles in action during the ISDE at the John Zink Ranch in 1994. They were adorned in their pink and white plastic and created the sweetest most crisp 2 stroke symphony I have ever heard. I swore that day I would own one and in 2019 I finally did it. I ride my bikes and outside normal and responsible maintenance have not had a single failure. They were made to be ridden and raced.

TM's are the most underrated bikes ever outside Italy, unfortunately. TM factory takes the best of every parts made for enduro motorcycles and combine them on the same bike. Parts are a little difficult and expensive to get even in europe, but are awesome, and the attention to details is amazing. They think about every inch of the motorcycle. They sell motorcycles because they love them. They dont sell motorcycles just to profit, like other orange brands. From Portugal 😎😎😎

Finally a bike that's not orange 🙌

I'm Italian, here TM is one of the best Sellers in 125cc enduro class, unfortunately the 300 are a bit too nervous for technical riding, but man they are perfect for cross country stuff! Simply stunning bikes! Made for pros

TM’s are incredibly built and underrated motorcycles. Everything on the bike is made by TM, or parts sourced from Italy only! Incredible attention to details and beautiful bikes.

Those welds on the frame are utterly pristine from what I can see on the video

The reason why it has tons of street accesories is because over here cops won't let you just ride an offroad bike without a plate unless it's a private area, especially if you ride your bike from home to the trails, cheers from italy!

Kick start + Electric is great. The pipe looks dope too.

The sopt weld on the swingarm is actually for a structural bar the runs true the leg

Buying these things is one thing, selling them used is a whole nuther thing. Unicorn is one way to look at it.

It's so beautiful it's like looking into the sun. It hurts but I can't look away!

A lot of ppl think they sound bad at idle lol but they don’t know is their porting is fantastic! That’s how all the factory 2 strokes sounded back in the day lol

The kickstand is required to do that on street legal bikes at least in some European countries. It’s either that or a sensor that knows when the kickstand is down. It will turn the engine off if you put the bike into gear while the kickstand is down. Both accomplish the same thing, preventing you from riding with the kickstand down. The solution with the spring is cheaper and lighter so its seen in alot if not all the enduro bike sold here Greetings from Switzerland

That weld spot on the swing arm is on my bike as well. It was not a mistake . It was for balance. Each part is weighed and balanced

I have a 300 ENT TM Enduro 3:00 on it then raced trail riding still runs to this day has a license plate on it one of the best bikes I ever had get down it's the s***finally you have a real bike in there

I remember the very first TM that I ever saw. A 200cc brought in to a dealer in Burlington, Washington, from Canada back in the late 1990s. It was probably the prettiest dirt bike I ever saw to this day.

Please do as much content as possible with this bike! 👌👌👌👌 I’ve been waiting for someone with your quality of content creation to get a TM and go in-depth! Thank you legend! No where near enough in-depth content out there on TM so please do as many narrated rides , back to back test and reviews as possible! Im actually trying to decide between Beta, Sherco and Tm as the moment and it’s so hard to choose!

The most awesome bike on the Planet!!! Yes it is, we have 2 of them 2010 TM Enduro 250 & 2012 TM 300 MX I used to also have a 2007 TM 250F awesome bike, and my son had a 2007 TM 85MX, cannot say enough good things about them! I used to work for the TM Racing Importer out of Marietta Georgia, my job was to set up dealerships, and I set up 22 across the US, it was unfortunate that the importer didn't do a good job.....The main issue that people have with TM is the fact that just about every importer has great intentions, but somewhere along the way, things happen either in their lives personally or financially, not to mention importers have to deal with the Exchange rate of the Euro, and that has been the only downfall to TM here in the USA, is the Importers, not being able to stay consistent! It seems like Ralph Schmidt and Dave from Get Dirty out of California are doing a fantastic job bringing these bikes into the country. Also just to note every bike has its quirks, nothing is perfect to each rider, but TM Racing is about as close as you can get to that perfection! Cannot wait to hear more about this amazing machine.

TM Racing also make engines for karts, I think this at least increases their production numbers for the engines. I too wonder how they do it, as they are reasonably priced. It's great that a small company can also run alongside the big boys.

Proud to have one! 💙✊🏼🇮🇹

Love my 22 tm300en es

I worked on tm at a dealer in New Jersey 20 years ago. They were very trick back then too.

OMG! Frickin masterpiece incredible craftmanship like to get the 300 mx version

That's so sweet u got one I didn't see this happening. I always liked TM racing bikes. I love the look of those TMs. Need to see more of them in the gps

I notice little things, and before you ride it, the shifter needs to be raised 1 notch on the spline ! 🤔🤣

A friend of mine has a carbureted TM racing 300... The only problem he has had is helping me clean all the roost off my goggles and front of my Gas Gas 350

Looks pretty nice! Can’t wait for the ride reviews!!

I have a 2022 en carb and after 5 ktm I fiend the best bike ever on it

I haven’t been watching you for a while. I am really into TM, will be my next bike. Back for the TM content.

Rear mudguard wears the swingarm--> needs protection, shock has 50mm showa piston with 18mm shaft and the seal head is tm own. Make sure to change the fork oil after some break in rides. Some people use bigger and better batteries than stock.

I’m excited to hear your first impressions on riding it!!

That headlight looks kinda sick

Can't wait to pick THIS BIKE up in July after I win it

WOOT FINALLY A TM! Turn that thing into a Pegasus! I want to see it fly!

Super excited for this TM!

Very cool can't wait to see more videos on this!

It's about time we have a real bike on this channel. I've got the 2022 model. It's a much better bike then the ktm

Nice to see you brought some pasta to the table.🤙

Art work. I would keep it in the living room tell my wife makes me take it out lol

Yes! I'm so stoked for your reaction on the TM bikes. I personally own 2 (1999 250 & 2013 300 2T). I hope you fall in love with the build quality and the charm these bikes have like I did. Cant wait for the next video!

AWESOME!!!...exotic and beautiful...cannot wait for the testing and reviews!!!!

Buddy of mine here in Michigan has a tm 144. Pretty sweet bike and fun to ride.

I was introduced to the TM bike way back in Alaska. A friends son was racing one... Supposed to be a really good bike for sure...

I like the idea of buying a frame/engine block and having it customized - similar to the way many boutique mountain bike manufacturers offer their products.

I had asked you to review this bike about a year ago . Back in October of 2022 I purchased a 2023 TM En 300 ES 2T carb model. Excellent bikes

Waiting to see Tyler's GasGas 300 Ironhorse build video !

Awesome bike. Thx Kyle

That is one Italian beauty! Looking forward to your first impression!

Finally a TM! I have the same bike and I have only ever heard it called a TM (brand obviously) EN300 (model). I understand what those other letters are but never heard anyone use them. I love mine and since you have ridden everything I'm eager to see what you think of it. Before buying mine I did a bunch of research and never heard anyone say anything bad about them. Let's see how this goes.

I have the same bike and I absolutely love it, do yourself a favour and disconnect the red wire with the bullet terminal within the wiring harness that follows down the headstock, After the time you have spent on KTM's I'd be interested on your opinions after spending a few rides on the en300, me? I found it far superior in almost every way, a few small glitches encountered but less issue than I have had with literally every other brand, wouldn't trade my 22 en300fi for the world

I have not seen or ridden a tm before and I can't wait to see you put it through it's paces, but I think I would like to ride it in road and in the dirt.

I had a 1999 TM 300 enduro 24 years ago already, It was a great bike and I road the stuffing out of it. Had a bit of bar vibration so arm and hand fatigue was an issue but it was a great handling bike on Idaho single track. It was a handmade work of machining art. Getting parts then...

It's kind of a hybrid of fine Italian craftsmanship and a joke at the same time where the base gasket used to be.,. You have orange RTV sealant. Fancy! Custom and handmade 😉

Them TM are some fun bikes to ride I got to try the 144 and 250 and they are awesome bikes for sure 😄🙂

Finally a DIRTBIKE!! 😃 (and I never had a TM..) 😁

Nice bike, I have the 125, for the kick stand You Just pull up the clip( the clip attached to the return spring) on the nut that holds the kickstand and It Will remain still

Love my 300 MX version.

YEEEESSSSSSS I have one every time I ride it I love it more and more, like Jeremy Clarkson says wuuhhaaaaattttt aaaa machiiinnneeeee

Still riding a 2012 300te that I've owned for 10 yrs. Tried some new 300s, they feel the same

🔥🔥🔥 can’t wait to see your thoughts on this jewel tm has always been the Ferrari of dirt bikes.

This is dope AF!!! Such a cool bike!

Been wondering if you were ever going to try a TM. I have 2022 300fi as well. Amazing bike.

Swingarm weld is by design it's for the brake caliper lug.

There is a five part TM factory tour series on youtube. Very very cool.

@Kyle - Thank you for the review and very much looking forward to your impressions going forward. Just a couple of comments for your general information - The welding dot is not a fluke, it is intentional and is something they do to all of their bikes, maybe to mark their uniqueness? The exhaust and pipe are are made by Netherland based HGS. Again, thank you for all of the quality content.

I’m really considering getting one, please review soon!!!

Absolutely gorgeous! Just bought a new 2023 Beta 300RR. Thought that was somewhat exclusive. But no! Looking forward to a ride review! Dude! Nice looking custom bike stand. You make that?

My buddy happens to own this same bike. It absolutely shreds and you’re likely to never see one with you at the track. We turned his into a supermoto in the fall. It’s a wheelie monster. 🚀

It's a fabulous looking and specified bike that's for sure. Would love to see you review the 300 4 stroke Enduro bike too😉👍👍

The problem is getting parts (OEM/ Aftermarket) for the bike. I'm sure its fine.

Kickstand like that is actually required here in Europe. The alterative would be a off switch that kills the engine if the stand is down but that is another failure point so many bikes don't have that!

If there's two springs on the kickstand you can remove one and have the stand stay down until you put it up yourself.

About time got a good bike.

On the kickstand. Take a close look at the bracket where the spring attaches. There may be another mount point for the spring that will serve to keep the stand down as per normal. Some trials brands have implemented this flip flop design to allow for user preference.

My 2022 tm 300 en efi with larger fuel tank, fan kit, tublis front and rear, with tail light and plate holder weighed 227 wet, no fuel.

Just grabbed mine today 2023 tm300en fi

Make sure get the moikin mods maps if havnt. Map1 more power and map2 lot tammer vs the stock maps.

I’ve got the same.. in Pink.. it’s a rocket 🚀

My brother used to have a 2002 tm en 250

Yes please!

My buddy has a 90s tm the thing is amazing never seen it running through unfortunately

we own 4 tm´s and they are amazing!!!

WHAT A BIKE!!!

Beautiful bike!

I believe weld on swing arm has something to do with brake, as i see on many others

Very beautiful bike

congratulations Kyle !!! "Mazal Tov" :-)) what a machine!!! you're gonna love it ! here in Israel they are quite loved and adored by those who don't want KTM\GAS GAS\HUSKY or BETA\SHERCO ... AND this year their prices went down considerably , they're much much less than KTM\GAS GAS\HUSKY ! oh ! and the spot weld on the aft of the swing arm ? - it's on all the models, i think maybe it's something to do with the rail holding the rear caliper assembly ? ... ask your importer ENJOY ENJOY AND TAKE CARE !

Hey you don’t have to say the exact name every time TM300 works after the 24 times you said it in 3 minutes we get it I promise

I’m excited about this one 🤙

This bike made from the best materials from all dirt bikes this is realy a dream bike..👌👌👌👌👌❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hey Kyle, been restoring a 2003 XR 400R. Been using that link, but nowhere during check out does it ask about reference. I’m hoping your getting some credit , cause I’m loving all the work your putting into these videos.

Looking forward for the content about the bike =)

Those side stands are adjustable to stay down, you just move the spring pivot point

Franks Motorbikes in Bellevue WA has 5 of them as well as Riemann 300’s. They are the biggest Beta, TM and Rieju dealer. Frank is great and will ship. Check him out he is the Beta and TM guy

I would be interested is more content like this changing it up on bikes like this out of the norm.

Looks like a wheel sensor at rear caliper- por que? Different kickstand bolt to defeat auto retract and you're all set. Another comment noted disconnect of a wire in loom, wonder what that buys you. Looking fwd to ride review!

I love tm’s!

My ktm free ride has the same thing for the kick stand. It’s an exc model maybe that’s a thing there, idk

Looks good. Being over 50 I’ve been looking for a 300 2t for a while. Would mind trying this bike. Too bad there are not many dealers up here in Canada that carry this bike.

Interesting looking bike👍
