Correction the dry weight is 235LBs not 240LB. Still around 10 pounds heavier than the Beta 300 I currently ride. Thanks for watching!

Thank you for the review Rich. Very cool to seeing you trying out different bikes and challenges. Definitely looking forward to additional insights as you put more time on the TM

i bought one at the beginning of this year i really like it so far. i had the suspension resprung and valved because in the dutch sand it dove a little to deep to my liking at 80kg besides that it is still stock and the engine is awesome. stronger and more direct that my gasgas ec350F (ktm xcw 350). in the netherlands the fan is not stock tough for 2022 it was a 2023 isn't unfortunately so i had to buy one. i'm excited to take it to france next month to see how it handles in the mountains and rocks. after watching this i feel quite hopeful about! thanks for the vid keep it up!

i changed the gearing to 13-52 works way better. and in comparisson to the austrian 350's it feels way lighter to ride. lots more bottom end on the tm. it doesn't stall as easy as the gasgas so i'm super happy with it after 15 hours of riding

Love it! Would love to see a review of the TM 2 Stokes as well.

Beautiful bike. Would love to hear how it compares to Sherco 300sef the other 300 4t

[chrisvozza]

Very nice! Can't believe you bought a 4stroke 👍👍 iv always liked those TM racing bikes

[jcsquared]

Your reviews are awsome!! The level of detail and analysis are truly unmatched!!

[drock]

Just need a back to back with the Sherco 300f now!

[rayheppner]

Thanks for the great review and commentary on this elusive bike.

Great see a review on the 300 4t. Be cool see carb vs fi(only brand have option of both). Power chicken offroad is great work with got a bike from them last fall.

YO! I have a TM en144 fi 2022 and I am blown away by it. I am currently looking to get rid of my gas gas 300 to get a TM. Super stoked to see you on a TM👊
If and when I get my TM300 ill also be upgrading my tire to some IRC treads

A very good and comprehensive review of the 2023 TM 300 FI Rich! From a well rounded rider who’s riding style demands more from what an enduro dirt bike is designed for but shown to very ‘adaptable’. Impressive that the TM EN 300 FI handled well from engine and handling in the tight technical riding. I own a 2020 KTM 500 EXC-F (EU version) having owned three 2-strokes beforehand and I agree ‘one’ has to be more deliberate on the clutch in order to inhibit flame-outs. Certainly interested on watching and hearing about more of your riding on the TM EN 300 FI.

Absolutely incredible review! Thanks a million! I am a newbie trying to find out which bike to buy. This was super helpful!

Mate I’ve got the Tm300en es carby and after a few tweaks with jetting and softening the forks I’m in love with this bike I have all the protection on it from P-tech and if I could buy another bike it would be the fi300 4T I love the look of the bike and how they feel. I do like to do the more technical style of riding but also find the bike has legs and winds right out sooo much fun 3rd gear makes me smile every time

[robertaccioHVA]

I like your choice of TM factory enduro pink gear, very cool

[mack]

Great review. Appreciate the detail on your suspension clickers and the commentary on why you set it up like that. Yes it doesn't translate 100% to my bike, type of riding or terrain, but it is interesting to hear the why you set it up like you did.

When I was picking up my Sherco 300 4T they had the TMs sitting right there.... always wonder what if, but figured Sherco was a stretch already on parts availability and the aftermarket, the TM would push that to the extreme.

I've got the tm 300 2stroke carby 2022 model. Absolutely love the bike.
I would love to try the four stroke as well.
I was waiting for you to get your hands on a tm after your video in Hawaii.

[MichaelAbramo]

I got my 2023 TM 300 MX 2T last month and I have 30 hours on it already. 25 hours of that was all racing enduro. I love this bike so far. Valving is a bit stiff - doesn't absorb chatter high in the stroke like I prefer.

I run 12/50 on my 08 CRF 450R and it definitely tames it enough to do trails/enduro. Next step is flywheel weight and hydraulic clutch

[PNWEnduro]

Nice to see some content on this bike, I'd love to try one. What are your thoughts on the dual exhaust on an off road bike? Seems like more weight and another part to get banged up.
