KTM Freeride 350 2016 vs. Beta Xtrainer 300 2020

Beta Xtrainer 300 2020

All in all: a lot of Enduro for little money - the 1000PS editorial team is thrilled. The seat height on the Xtrainer is about 2 centimetres lower than on competition-oriented sister models, which creates a lot of security in the saddle and also makes it particularly interesting for smaller riders. With the slightly slimmer frame and about 1.5 centimetres less wheelbase, the Xtrainer is easy to manoeuvre through the undergrowth. Especially in slow and technical passages, it scores points with this manoeuvrability and at the same time gives a sovereign feeling in the saddle. The engine is wonderfully linear in every situation and always perfectly controllable. You never have the feeling of being underpowered with its 36 hp in the open version. With the slimmed-down chassis, there are actually only disadvantages in fast sections or on the occasional excursion to the motocross track. Here it is no longer in its territory and the usual hard enduros have a noticeable advantage. In short: You get a lot of motorbike for comparatively little money. What is on offer probably satisfies the majority of enduro riders. So if you don't care about your ego when buying and look at the facts soberly, it's hard to get past the Xtrainer.
