    That’s no good. No way to treat a Kato! ;)
    In all fairness you had it coming. Everyone knows a 300exc likes to initiate it’s new owner with one or more unfortunate “incidents”. My 300 has a few notches on it’s belt already. 3 owners and all 3 of us end up in hospital. The other 2 sold up quick but you see after initiation there is a solid respect there that you have to earn the hard way ….. I’m still holding the reins. :D

    I have had a few rides on the KTM 300’s and if I went stark raving mad and went back to 2T, that is the bike I would buy. :woohoo:

    Too be honest, if I were able to have another bike, there would be one in the shed now. Couldn’t part with the trusty XR though. :)

    I feel for you.
    The two strokes are easy to flip as there is not the compression of a thumper to reliably bring it down.
    The last time I did it was on my 2 stroke in front of a packed pub at Dooralong. Pride had me pick up the pieces and immediately do it again properly. Switching between bikes can play havoc with the instinctive reactions.
