Husqvarna Te 300 Review
"The best used two-stroke enduro money can buy — if it's been maintained."
Used Buyer Review
The TE 300 is genuinely one of the best two-stroke enduro bikes ever built, and the used market is full of them because enthusiasts buy them, thrash them, and move on quickly. That's your warning right there. When you find one, dig hard into the maintenance history — top ends on a properly ridden 300 need attention every 80-120 hours, and plenty of previous owners conveniently forget that. Check the powervalve for carbon buildup and inspect the reeds while you're at it. Budget for work regardless of what the seller claims. That said, when a TE 300 is healthy, it's an absolute weapon. The KTM-derived engine is punchy without being savage, the WP suspension is genuinely capable, and the Husqvarna ergonomics feel a touch more refined than its Austrian sibling. It rewards skilled riders and absolutely humiliates bigger four-strokes in technical terrain. The closed-course version lacks street lighting, so confirm which variant you're buying if that matters to you.
