I have a 2011 ktm 300xcw. Thinking about every kind of bike to upgrade my ride. I do hard enduro single track, also some fire road riding and take a trip to mohab most every year.
I have never rode a beta, but very interested in trying one. But concerned the ergos may not work for me? I am 5ft 10 inch with very tall torso and 30 inch inseam, i set up my ktm with lower footpegs and higher handlebars.
I really like the carburetor over fuel injection option, also the kick start.
My main options are a ktm 300 xcw of whatever year, from 2014 to about 2023. Or a beta 300rr from around 2020 to 2024. Think i want a 300rr race edition and tune downward the suspension for my slower riding as I am a B rider.
I wonder how the newer fuel injected ktm 300 xcw compares to the newer 300rr betas. As in the difference between them, also for 2014 to 2017, 300 xcw carburetor bikes.
Any insight will be appreciated, thanks.
