Pros and Cons in comparison
KTM 300 EXC 2011
The "big" two-stroke engine was newly developed in 2017 and is used on the 250 and 300. The electric starter is no longer "flange-mounted" but compactly integrated. Professionals have said that the 300 is actually too powerful for them. For me, however, it is THE 2-stroke recommendation, especially for hobby riders. With the map selector, you can choose the "mild" mapping here and also fall back on the weaker spring for the exhaust control. In practice, you can ride it in a gear higher than the 250 and it becomes quite tame. The new balancer shaft offers a big plus in ride comfort: significantly less vibration!
CFMOTO 450MT 2024
The CFmoto 450MT impresses as a light and comfortable bike for enduro travellers looking for a good balance between size and weight. It offers satisfactory engine performance for off-road use. On-road, the two-cylinder engine needs plenty of revs to get going, yet it still performs confidently. The workmanship and appearance are convincing, and the engine's power delivery is linear and easy to control, apart from the load change reactions. Minor points of criticism concern the suspension, which reaches its limits under intensive use. Overall, the CFmoto 450MT offers good value for money and is an attractive choice for riders looking for a reliable and well-equipped enduro bike.
