Husqvarna TE 300 2016

Completely new engine for 2017! Lighter and quieter thanks to the balancer shaft, the two-stroke has also been lightened, with the 300 now weighing in at 102 kg. The choice for Erzberg, Romaniacs and Co!

Much quieter due to balancer shaft

powerful engine

best balance of weight and performance

I would prefer a four-stroke on smooth and easy tracks

If you can afford to pay around 8,500 euros (Germany) or just under 9,000 euros (Austria) for the RC390 R and then have around 11,000 flakes left over for the SSP 300 kit, you will get world championship-ready racing goods. "Ready to Race", the name says it all, really. In this case, "Ready to win the World Championship" would almost be more accurate, because the parts kit is actually so complete and complies with the FIM regulations. KTM is doing everything it can to accommodate all those who are considering a serious entry into the racing world, especially of course all the young hopefuls out there. KTM Customer Racing, I pull my helmet! Bravo!

Never before has it been easier to get hold of a World Championship-ready racing machine.

The realisation that I will probably not become a gifted ring rider.
