  • After the wettest and muddiest races at Loretta Lynn's last year, Jeff Emig's championship bike was thrashed. He called us up and said he wanted to do a little video about his bike once he brought it back to life. We got Bruce to ride it, and this is what both Fro and Bruce had to say!

      Honestly, 95% of KTM owners know that regular oil and filter changes, top ends on the 250 and 300’s last ages for most. The TBI on paper is a 2 stroke. On the butt dyno, it’s a 3 stroke. Not sure if he mentioned it, but the new VForce4X they came out with for the TBI’s is also super impressive and relatively inexpensive mod. Definitely opened up the mid-range with a much stronger pull through the top.

      It wouldn't matter there are so many 250s that will smoke 450 BUT no one will ride them because the Manufactures will not pay them!!!!! Manufactures make all there money on selling parts for 4 strokes!

      ​@zachklamfoth7583 its a two stroke, they do not cost that much to rebuild. When you are seriouse about motocross and you are racing for contingency and cash payout then money is on the line. Its not worth risking a blown engine at the line when the 1 minute card goes up. Happened to me a few times and each time was my own fault

    Well, i rode one sand/mud race 4 years ago and after a pressure wash put the bike away for three years.
    The motor was fine, filter fell apart, steering bearings (serviced and well-greased before) were brown and locked up. Linkage was ok, just needed cleaning and grease.
    Some weird things can go wrong with bikes in a mud race.

    I just finished watching (again) the 1996 Binghampton 250 National and then I saw this. Emig's late race pass on Albertyn in the second moto was great!!! Emig during the post race interview said about his battle with Jeremy at the time: This is as good as it gets. When asked about his response to Jeremy saying Steel City was his favorite track, Jeff's response: We'll see. Love both those guys.

    I've got a 300sx and what they talk about, linear powerband is just how the bike comes stock! Unreal machine, white map all day rippin or green map if you wanna wear yourself out quick 😅. Sure, putting race fuel in and a twisted map must refine things a touch (you'd hope) but they're just describing the character of the TBI 300sx in general. We have 99 ron pump fuel here in the UK, no one this side of a very good pro needs more power than that bike has stock😂. The stock suspension, including the air forks are also very good after 8 or so hours use.

    Most of the guys in Cali. are so dependent on over rev that they have no idea how to ride a 2strock that actually has good power and and good mid range! They think all has to be be over revved when all you need is to shift up tp get more.. Good vid!

    These are amazing bikes. Back to back tested with a '22 KX450. Nah, I'd rather smoke, for life. So agile, yet such a planted feel. I bought mine already dialed. My '24 only has a WMR flash, PC Works pipe, Enzo shock ReVlv and fork is Coppersmith hybrid Ohlin's spring cartridge/60 PSI WP. Front bites in flat corners and soaks up chop. I get no aches and pains from a day at the track and I'm old. My mod'd 200SX with STIC Super X carb and '17 YZ butter front end makes my forearms ache for like 4 days...YAT(fun Sleeper).

    I have this bike, but i feel it doesn't get the love it deserves. I know Ping doesn't care for them much, nor does the test guy in the video. He's as nice as he could be in agreeing with Jeff, but he didn't have many positives to say. He just agrees with jeff as he takes over the review. They must be an aquired taste, but I love mine 🤷‍♂️

      I think if it's a 24 it's still a 23 because anything that changed between the two years he upgraded with aftermarket anyway. ECU and Suspension, etc.
