Ktm 300 Exc Tpi

The Ktm 300 Exc Tpi has a top speed of ~140 km/h (estimated; note: top speed is not a primary design focus for this enduro bike), produces ~48 hp and weighs 102 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.

De KTM 300 EXC is sinds de jaren negentig een hoeksteen van KTM's enduro-assortiment en staat bekend om zijn krachtige tweetaktmotor van 300 cc. De TPI-variant (Transfer Port Injection) werd geïntroduceerd in 2018 en markeerde een baanbrekende verschuiving van carburatie naar brandstofinjectie op een tweetakt-enduro-motorfiets, waardoor de gasrespons, het brandstofverbruik en de prestaties bij koude start werden verbeterd. Het is nog steeds een van de meest gevierde offroad-motorfietsen ter wereld, won meerdere ISDE-titels en is geliefd bij zowel amateur- als professionele endurorijders.

Wat kopers moeten weten

Transfer Port Injection

The TPI fuel injection system eliminates premix and automatically adjusts fuel delivery, making it significantly easier to maintain than carbureted two-strokes. It also improves cold-start reliability and reduces fouled plugs.

🔧

Watch the Power Valve

The RAVE power valve requires regular cleaning every 50-100 hours or it can stick, causing noticeable power loss and potential engine damage. Neglected power valves are the most common issue found on used examples.

Strong Resale Value

KTM 300 EXC TPI models hold their value exceptionally well, often retaining 70-80% of purchase price after a year due to high demand and limited supply. A well-maintained example rarely sits on the market long.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers

8.5/10
Het beste voor
Experienced enduro riders wanting serious trail weapon

"The best enduro two-stroke available, if you're genuinely ready."

$7,500-$11,500 used

The 300 EXC TPI is genuinely one of the most capable off-road machines ever built, but it'll humble you fast if you're not ready for it. That fuel-injected two-stroke is addictive — crisp, responsive, and surprisingly tractable in the tight stuff — but it demands proper maintenance. Check the power valve religiously on any used example. Neglected PV actuators are the single biggest killer on these bikes, and sellers rarely mention it. Budget for that inspection immediately after purchase. The ergonomics are pure enduro — aggressive, tall, demanding. Previous owners matter enormously here. A 300 TPI that's been thrashed by a club racer through rocky terrain is a completely different animal to one used for weekend trail riding. Ask for service history, check the subframe for cracks, inspect the WP suspension for leaks. Parts availability from KTM is solid, but it's not cheap. Running costs will surprise you if you're coming from a four-stroke background.
