I would like to see a shootout between the KTM 350 XCF, HUSKY FX350, GASGAS EX350

I have the 2024 250 xcf and 2023 250 sxf. Both are awesome bikes and have almost identical performance. I can’t say enough about how superb these bike perform. There are very few noticeable differences between the two bikes. The Xcf has a kick stand, thicker back tire, and spring vs air forks. My 14 year old son rides the sxf at the track and we substantially reduced the air pressure in the forks to accommodate his 127 pound body weight. Great video and review.

Taco moto is doing a teardown of 2023, one particular change for 23, they've gotten rid of molex power connectors and went with water dust proof connectors. Also i think the fuel pump is improved.

I bought a 23 xcf. I am 50. B off road racer. Ive owner a 19 350sxf. These forks are great stock. They work over rough slow terrain. By far the best thing I like about the new bike.
I have 30 hours on the new bike btw.

I ride in the lower 70% of the throttle on a 350 xc-f, but it's nice to know if I need some ponies, I can just twist the throttle more, lol. I have a 450xc-f too, but ride the 350 most of the time(I love the 6 speed).

Thanks for sharing your views on those new bikes!!

Great video. Please do a similar video on the 2 strokes, 250/300 SX vs XC

People need to realize, the xc-f was made for GNCC style riding, which is fast paced woods riding, I have the 23 350 xc-f, it is perfect for the woods, fast, powerful and is very flickable in the trails. The closest to a 2 stroke for woods riding that I have ever had. I did go up one tooth on the rear and that enables me to ride 2nd or 3rd through the woods, still have plenty of usable grunt for the steep hill climbs in the western PA woods.

I’m an east coast guy. My brother just sold his 250 XCF and I sold my 250FX cuz they are miserable on the trails out here. There’s a big difference between West Coast and East Coast

in my opinion, although SX-F is an mx bike, think it has a huge fun factor vs an enduro bike on flow like trail systems, esp with whoops similar to tracks.

I rode my 2017 XCF 350 back-to-back to the 2023 factory edition XCF 350 and I'm telling you my 17 was faster and had a better more flex frame ride. That 23 was like riding a steel girder. I have never had a single problem with my 17 after 250 hours, but in the Facebook forums I see non-stop problems with all these brand new bikes. It looks like the KTM quality control is really going downhill.

I've put lighting kit on my XC-F 350 it works great, Siccass lighting kit

Ive had the xcf. It is too jumpy for tight trails without clutching. The suspension is also firm. The best moto converted trail bikes I found are the kx x versions.

Yep! I wanted the new ktm350sx and I figured I'd use my 21 GG EX350F for open desert (wanted yours but you laughed at me). But the GG is so good on the track also that it's just not worth it to get the SX short of winning the 1.28 billion. So i changed my mind, the bike checks off too many boxes for all kinds of different riding, vet track, gp, desert. Just a vet track slow guy. Now if KTM would stop messing around and put the six speed on the 450's, then I'd look at the 350 sx for track and 450 xc/ex/fx for open desert. I'll see when the season starts again but the time I had it in the desert you can feel a little gapping in the gearing on the 350 under load (just long uphill sandy type stuff, high rpm in gear, upshift and it'll drop off in the taller gear) maybe a pipe and ecu would help or a more aggressive riding style. Suspension cost $$$ but at least it's not splitting cases on a new bike to add the 6th gear the 350 already has.
