Why does my KTM 300 XC not start?
The other day I was riding my 2013 KTM 300 xc and after about 15 minutes of riding it died. It sounded and felt like fuel starvation. Plenty of fuel in the tank. Fuel is Chevron premium ethanol free mixed 50:1 with Motorex premix. The fuel was leftover in the tank from a GP the week before during which the bike ran great. Now the bike won’t start.

If you get any used 300 from ‘04 and later, you just hit the jackpot. Of all the used two-strokes on the market, the KTM 300 holds its value the best.
