TE/TC 4CS or OC Forks?

I currently have a 2012 450 exc with standard OC forks which I am very confident with and happy with, but now have a 2015 TE300 with 4CS forks.

I hear a lot of bad things about these 4CS.

My question is should I put swap my OC onto the new bike before selling my old one with the 4cs fitted ?

Any thoughts

Ride it and feel it out. There is many opinions out there but only you can determine what your bike should feel like for you. It also depends on terrain, speeds, and experience. Just my two cents. Congrats on an awesome bike though. Get some seat time in and see where it takes you.

I agree with Husky......

If it were me I'd probably switch.... but 4CS can be made good but why spend the money if you already have good forks...

I'd probably swap too but my 4cs weren't too bad stock until I started beating the bejesus out of em haha I could've lived with them for trail riding and messing around.

Thanks guys. Can see Gina take a while getting used to coming from a 450. Think I will swap had a go today ad front just felt to harsh. Got load of other questions to ask soon

Tuners have the 4cs figured out and are very, very good when done right. pm me if u want info.

On the 2016 TE 300 the 4cs are very rideable out of the box....but they can be made a lot better.. I have the Kreft setup and the bike handles great, very predictable and confidence inspiring !!
Cheaper options out there too, I wouldn't be swapping until you set your bike up properly and ride first..ie correct spring rate from and rear and sag correct otherwise you through..

Would be tempting if the OC is already set up for you....
I have 2016 TE300 with 4CS, is ridable but I am saving my pennies to get them reworked. I have sprung from my weight and clickers backed most of the way out. Seems to soak up low speed rocks and roots just fine and tracks pretty good at higher speed, but I find the midrange overly harsh on square edges and small down hill drop offs where front hits first.
Could live with them but as I plan on keeping it a while I will have reworked. Now trying to decide who to use (Will be based on what I can afford)

See what I mean? Tons of opinions and tons of options. Ride. Research. Then decide what's right for you. But I'm also going to second the ZIPTY racing option. I put about 45 hours on mine before I pulled the trigger on anything. I dialed in sag and spring rates which did help just not enough. All in all they are great after the ZIPTY treatment

My sag was set when I bought it with correct springs, 20 hours now and starting to feel like I could ride a bitt faster with better front end. Not saying I am fast, but getting faster and want more confidence (better suspension) No reason to chase horsepower on a modern 300 (or any full sized KTM/Husqvarna) Fools errand for me at least.
