It looked fast enough for me.....

So tell us your opinions.

Cool, no trees to hit! I think I would be on a 4 stroke for that kind of terrain.

I like 300 2T bikes, as called by one former ISDE/top US vet competitor guy I know "its a 3 stroke" all the best qualities of a E2 size 4stroke combined into an E3 300cc torque heavy 2 stroke displacement bike, in the same weight package as a 250cc 2 stroke.
I will need some seat time to re-adapt to a 2T bike..( Johns CR300 was an easy transition).......my 2014 choices are now100% I'm going 300cc 2T- I am now at 95% MY13 Beta, 5% WHT MY14 TE300.......that 5% is washing away quickly mostly due to $ of initial cost as well as suspension all ready pro level dialed on the Beta. There you go Cafe crew you heard it here first, Robertaccio=Beta 300RR ( low hour 2013 model w/suspension fresh from the US Ohlins shop in NC and some BYOB kit parts on it as well). For bling I will hit up Jarno and Ivan Boano for a factory Beta Boano world enduro graphics and seat package, just to be even more different.

Plus I love Pesto Genovese!!!

Joined the Club myself... picked up a 13 250 in Modesto last week... still setting it up Jetting /handguards etc... and later a rekluse... Haven't had the first real ride on it yet (Weather around here not cooperating and neither is work)

I feel like I'm cheating on my Husky and the of course the Cafe....

Thanks... feels weird owning another brand... I spend most of my free time around here and have come to regard all of you as family.. I check this place 5-6 times a day... thankful for the other bikes section ...

YES . The other bikes section will be our new hang out now!

LoM,
I did not say easier, I just found that the 300cc bike was an easy transition, Johns is very well dialed as well, you can easily ride a gear high and run at med rpm with great torque and his suspension is world class, really.
Lately I also rode crew member Andy's 2013 300XC-W and found I was instantly comfortable with the motor as well as with Dai's 2011 300XC. I think the 3 stroke is great name for these 300c 2 strokes.

I had a hard time also, had an emotional attachment to the Italian Husky, but we didn't leave them, they left us. Ride the Beta, the guilt starts going away.

Yeah, you talked about all the different brands you might try, but I knew you would stay Italian!

the selling point for me was the electric start that works... not works some time... I just don't see how KTM or GG to a lesser extent couldn't get it fixed by now ...

Working on it .....its not imaginary even though my wife wishes it was
