Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"A rewarding buy if you respect two-stroke maintenance religion."
$3,500-$5,500 usedThe SWM RS 300R is essentially a Husqvarna TE300 wearing Italian clothes, which tells you everything and nothing simultaneously. The Rotax-derived two-stroke single is genuinely brilliant — punchy, responsive, and surprisingly tractable for a 300cc smoker. Used examples typically come from owners who bought them as budget enduro alternatives and either loved them or couldn't handle the maintenance demands of a two-stroke. Check the top end carefully — neglected ones will have worn pistons and scored cylinders that'll cost you. Parts availability is the elephant in the room. SWM's dealer network is thin, and sourcing bodywork or electrical bits can turn into a scavenger hunt. Mechanically though, the shared Husqvarna DNA means many components cross-reference, which saves you. The suspension is genuinely good for the money — WP components that punch above the price bracket. Buy one knowing it needs attention every season without fail. Miss the premix ratios or skimp on jetting and you'll be rebuilding sooner than planned. Properly maintained, it's a genuinely rewarding off-road tool.
