FEATURE I 2022 CYCLE NEWS BIKES OF THE YEAR

RYAN'S HONORABLE MENTION 1:
2023 KTM 300 XC
The new fuel-injected two-strokes from KTM are some
of the coolest to come out this year. Both the 300 SX
and 300 XC rank right up at the top for me. I raced the
XC at the Ironman GNCC and could honestly see owning
either one. The 300 XC is light, easy to ride in the tight
stuff, but still has enough bark when you open it up.
I was never a fan of the former-gen TPI models, so to
gain the performance of fuel injection and ditch the TPI
(and carburetor) is a huge plus for me.
