TM EN 300 Two Stroke - FIRST RIDE on this Italian Dirt Bike 

Much more coming on this bike in the next 60 days. It will be a sweepstakes bike for June 2023, so I've gotta pound out a bunch of rides on it. Seems like it's going to be really well suited for slower more technical terrain with the motor and geometry, but the forks and shock are set up to go faster.... kinda strange, but this is pretty typical on bikes from what I've seen.

Hope youll try a Rieju next. Really solid old school 2 stroke

I'm excited to see more on this bike. Honestly I'm excited to see more riding. I got out on my first ride of the year last weekend and I need more!

Good to see you riding again. Its good for the soul 👍🏼

Wow great turnaround for the video! It's good to see you getting some riding done

I love my 2 TM's one is a 2012 TM 300 MX and the other is a 2010 TM 250 Enduro The age makes no difference they are both solid and reliable, and just sick bikes! Love TM Racing, Thank you for the video, and its good to see you back out riding!

I hear you on the wet winter. My husband and I just went on a ride here in Prescott AZ and there were still some patches of snow. I’ve been recovering from hitting a deer on my Suzuki Katana the day after Christmas. I’m finally getting on a dirt bike.

I bought the same bike 3 weeks ago. At 225lbs, Master (over60) the bike was fairly balanced. I did have the suspension set up for my riding and weight. The forks are still stiffer than I like but I'm going to ride it a bit more and see how that goes. I ride most Hare Scrambles but also PNW single track. Seems to be comfy and powerful. The map switch does make a difference you can feel which I really didn't feel on my Husqvarna 300. Thanks for the video. Look forward to more input as you get more time on the bike.

The TM does have a "rear end high" feeling. Remember your AJ Catanzaro training... knees never forward of the pegs. Don't take that the wrong way, I know you're a very good rider and like you said it's been a couple months since you've been able to ride. But that "over the front wheel" feeling will probably go away if you move your hips and knees back. Very excited for your long term review on the bike

Im Loving the TM content. 'I've been waiting for this . I bought a 2021 TM 300 2 years ago from BGR moto , Brian Geddis was awesome and really helped me dial it in. I believe he is in your area or there abouts. a great resource if your looking for insight to really see the TM shine. I live in Mass. so i had it shipped. I have no regrets the course i took to purchase a TM! Ride on Man...

It took 10-12 hours and taking a little compression out but my TM 300 suspension is buttery smooth now at about 25 hours. I have the Mokim head and software tune and at 56hp it's stupid fast, maybe too fast for what I need. Good news is it's easy to control the power and hit with the electronic power valve. Make sure Power Chicken Offroad sets you up with a computer power switch. Thanks for the hard work!

I finally rode my 2023 tm300en this last weekend and damn!!! It is an animal, runs incredibly crisp and clean Very comfortable bike My two brothers ( ktm guys ) instantly fell in love with it

Awesome bikes 👍I had a TM 300 and it was great to ride it. Two strokes 💪

Just watching this video footage and the amount of deflection of the front tire honestly reminds me of riding my 1999 cr250.

If you get a chance, ride it somewhere it can really shine and you can get it to really rev, the harder/faster you ride these bikes the better they get, well that’s what I noticed with my 21 tm300

This drone footage is awesome

I like your observation of feeling short front to back. I have a 2021, and a 2023 TM. The 2021 feels pretty standard compared to “longer” bikes like the KTM, but the 2023 feels like a 2006 RM 250 as far as short wheelbase, and extremely quick handling, without the instability of the Suzuki. It’s quite good in difficult terrain. I have noticed that KYB forks have a unique break in oil in them. After about 5 hours it seems to thicken up, or, that’s the way it feels to me. This is across all brands of bike. Before you start tuning too much, you might consider changing the fork oil. Makes a nice difference.

Very awesome I always liked those TM racing bikes

Nice video on rocky terrain. Next video pls sand hi to your fans here in Brazil we use your rewiew in our forum discussions. Great work 👏

Its my all time dream to ride with KB !!! I would be in heaven ripping my KTM/300-SX

Get the "Zeta Bar Rise Offset Kit" to move your bars forward. They work great for tight cockpits as long as you don't mind the slight rise in height.

When i bought my 2023 tm 300 4t i had the option of a solid upper triple clamp or one with rubber bushes for dampening. I choose the second one. In that case you can turn the handlebar clamps around like a ktm. Im surprised you feel cramped on the bike. Im 6.1 and i think it's more spacious compared to my '22 gasgas 350. It has a higher seat height rider triangle is about the same.

If you have the stock rubber damper triple clamps and are anything like me and you fall alot, you will be riding with crooked bars very soon. Probably wont be the bars but the bolt in the triple clamp bends very easy. Check out what Ride Engineering has to offer. I replaced the triple on my 22 300 2t with theirs and they are rock solid now. Fly wheel weight makes a huge difference also in the slow techy stuff.

They started selling these in my town last year. Been really interested in buying one!

I always wanted one of them

Sounds really peppy, just wish i knew how it feelt :) nice video and ride.

I bet it would be fun to ride a turns track or whooped sand track to help that suspension break in.

What I’d give to ride a trail like that. Living in the flatlands of Texas we don’t see anything like that, all tight technical stuff. As for the bike, I’ll stick with my KTM 300 XCw TPI where there’s no issue getting parts and aftermarket. Great video, love the drone shots.

I watched your channel. You had me talked into a 2016 KTM 300 XC-W. I hate that bike. It sucks for desert riding. I crashed more on it in the first month than I did on my Honda 450X that I had for 8 years.

Hi from Spain!. Good video! I like your chanel a lot!. You need to find a Rieju MR 300 and to do a review. They are good bikes, good components and great price.

Bike sounds good how is the gearing 👍

Just put the AXP radiator braces on my 23 TX 300, very good protection and the removal front guards are nice. How would you compare the TMs TBI engine to the KTM/Husky?

Have you ever tried the Tusk tires, if so howdo you like them?

Would you consider reviewing KAYO K6 250r

Don’t care what anyone says the only bike I would ride on that terrain is my Xr650l it shines in the rocks 👍

With that low first gear you say it has it sounds like it would make a really good fast trail bike if the suspension was softened up a bit that's what I feel it could do also

Where do you carry your mavic controller? I've been wanting to do this with mine

I much prefer watching the open terrain riding . The in the tree stuff, although it's my preferred riding, watching it gives me vertigo. Yet l still enjoy watching untill l can't.

So how does this bike compare of any other bike? Seems like there wasn't a lot of info about the bike.

Does it feels like an xcw 300 wide ratio gears soft suspension or feels it like an 300xc more to a motocross

Where is this trail? I ride in Utah sometimes.

"Had minore surgery, and sore there as well" ha! Thats the same verbiage I used when i got the snip-snip!

It will be mine😊

Do gpx fse 300r

How does it compare to 4-stroke 450?

When are your doing another give away because I want a 2 stroke so bad😂

Italian quality

Sorry to hear about your marriage feller love your content shush you well

as the owner of lets just say '' more than 1 ktm'' and 2 tm 125mx's i can confirm you are 100% on point, the way it feels to me is lik... KTM=mountain bike TM racing=24'' bmx when i got the tm i felt almost to big for it, and very close to the bars, but after a couple days riding it i realized i was suffering from K.D.S. (KTM Derangement Syndrome) ive gotten so used to ktms after owning everything from 150 2 stroke to 525 thunder pumpkin, and they all have one thing in common. that being they all feel like a ktm, fork angle, width, footpeg angle, ect, but thats why i kept buying them , no other bikes feel like a ktm, just like no other bikes feel like a Tm, i have a 2002 tm 125mx and a 2018 model of the same bike ,and its wild how much they have changed but managed to keep the same ''rider feel'' scrubbing and whipping the Tm feels so natural and effortless, just like ktms just feel naturally ballanced and stable holding sick single track lines making it feel effortless , thats just my personal take , i love both bike brands for different reasons,but they are really both just different sides to the same coin. PS i actually like my 525sx, i get alot of flak for saying that, but 6 spd and elec start swap, some other mods of the donor exc along with hotcam and full pipe it is a fkn tundra rocket

nah, i'll stick with my 150xcw and trials tire, great play bike

It looks like you're going to flip over the handlebars just trying to ride straight

If you ain't got time to ride some of ur dirtbikes, I can take one man😂

Absolutely absurd name, good lord

You should have checked the box for rubber isolated triple clamps

When you’re describing the TM it sounds like you’re describing a Sherco flat pegs and cramped cockpit 😂 How does the motor feel and gearing compared to the Sherco and KTM 300s

Leg day plus a vasectomy… hero time😊

Appears from your position on the bike, the bars are also too low for you. Maybe custom make a pair of risers that also move the bars forward? IDK...

What drone are you using?

Where is the start of this trailhead?

2

seems more like a crosser than enduro for the riding position ;;

that terrain looks rather boring...Just my opinion. Liked the drone

From this short initial video seems like it needs different pegs, taller rise bars , and suspension revalve.

Hand made for sure…. but with ZERO dealer network or support…

They are pretty, never seen 1 in person. It looks squirrelly & kinda darty. It doesn't appear to inspire confidence. Like you're waiting for the front end wash out beneath your feet.

2035 no more dirtbikes with cumbustoon

You look like a Hoby rider 🤭

I was thinking "the bike sounds like a 250", just as you said; "its peppy".. Kyle, you do not look comfortable on the bike, like you're 10' tall on it, its making your riding off a bit.

This is exactly what the field needed. Yet another over priced entry.

Ok I'm tired of you complaining about non upward angles for pegs because you think they lock you in more. Stop trying to reinvent the wheel. Also stop using them, here is why. Our bodies have been adapting and evolving over the centuries-yes, but your ankles are not designed to be at this upward angle especially with your weight and added Gs- gravitational force for the jocks out there. They are bad for your ankles- what's attached to your ankles??? Oh yeah the rest of your body.... Sorry I know you can't fix stupid but at least I can say I tried.
