300cc Enduro?

If money was no object which 300cc Enduro bike would you buy???
I'd probably go for this bad boy;

Husqvarna TE300i without a doubt, but too heavy and too much power where I ride, so would go for a 250.
@Minia It would be a very tough choice between the fuel injected KTM's/Huskys and a carbureted bike? I like it that the TM bikes are hand made and also offer something a bit different to the mainstream bikes out there. Plus you could also put a Lectron carb on it for further improvements in power, handling and rideability. Those TPI models are hard to beat though. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

@NINJA Aye. Got my eyes on a wr250 though. One popped up closeby for a good price and would be a great base for a project. Im in France by the end of the week so... just maybe. But GasGas will have to go, no room for 2 offroaders.
@Minia can you still get gas gas spares?

@Nottsbiker Not for old bikes, GasGas sold their factory and spare parts in the mid 2000s. I think around 2005-06 or so, so finding parts for older bikes is a pain. The EC is ok, because it was a popular bike. But other models like my Pampera, no hope really unless you come across someone breaking the bike or who somehow has original parts from GasGas.

@Minia TE250i review
@NINJA There's some irony in that video. "It runs great, most people don't tune their 2-strokes" and 2 minutes later "This bike runs as good as any 2-stroke I've ever seen." "Low-end torque is not great, possibly because it runs a little lean." Eh? Wording is a little poor in that review.

Goes to France to work on the house, buys a bike instead
Well, I found the one I was looking at earlier and got my hands on it. What a machine!

@Minia glad to hear that you're sorted
