The 300i is best suited to extreme terrain , and this is mainly because of the fantastic low rpm power delivery and its comparative light weight . At 106kg without fuel it ’ s actually a little porky , but , importantly , it feels a lot lighter than the four-strokes . All-in-all , it is a brilliant engine for genuine Enduro work , but it lacks a little excitement as the track opens up - a very tractable and capable two stroke engine that will win many hearts for versatility and the comparative light weight compared to similar sized fourstrokes . For open going , the suspension is on the soft side , but very plush in the tight . A well-priced slick machine .
