Fun Bikes: 2023 KTM 300 SX
Today’s four-strokes are nothing short of amazing. I’ll be frank with you all: I am not a two-stroke lover. Please don’t hate me! Four-strokes have more power than most riders can utilize but enable you to ride smarter and not harder. One limitation that still exists for four-strokes is engine inertia/braking, though, so when I saw the press release announcing the new 2023 KTM 300 SX with EFI, I got excited. On paper it looked like a great hybrid option—four-stroke torque character/features (EFI) with that two-stroke lightweight feel. This is what a fun bike is all about. Could this change my negative two-stroke thoughts?
