It was an early 40th birthday present that I never imagined. I took it out in the woods today and it's unreal. The power is electric. The start button sure is nice too!

Rode a brand new 300xc a couple months back. Very good bike and felt so much lighter than my 450.

I had a friends wife call me for advice on a bike for her husband. I informed and he got a new yamaha 450. It was so cool to just imagine such a surprise. So cool for you 3D

My wife tries so hard to buy me things and surprise me, but bless her heart it hardly ever works out. If she tried this I might get a marshin 300

My wife brought me home an oil filter for my truck today... had to text her all the info and then when she was at the counter she had to call me again to confirm.. Point is- Did you pre-arrange this purchase? I can't imagine she knew exactly which bike you wanted..Did she?

Anyways..sweet bike. Congrats!

She has heard me talking about that bike. More than I realized she was. About a week ago she asked me something about a headlight. I said no, what I do doesn't require a headlight. She played it off in a random conversation. Here she had looked up KTM 300 and seen there were two kinds. One is the xc-w which has a headlight so she knew it was the XC I wanted. It was not planned what so ever and she based a huge buy on wether or not it had a light. She met her girlfriend at the dealer with a truck and brought it home. Funny thing is when she came home I was working on my clapped out 03YZ 250 that I've been riding since our kids started racing 6 years ago.

Congrats buddy. I'll be 40 this year too, and I can't imagine getting that!

Keep her happy man. I have one of those too. I feel so lucky as all my friends get physically nervous when their wife's call while mine is telling me to get a new one if I don't like mine. Is your wife a Cancer? They are the most unselfish.

My wife just took our 4yr olds to a play place for a pre school friend's birthday so I could watch the SX in peace. Not as good as your wife's present, but when I said I was going to get the kids a new PW and myself a matching YZ250 she said "ok, that sounds like fun"

My wife is a Cancer. I don't know if I'll ever get a gift like this but she is pretty unselfish though!!

Nice one bro, give your Wife a hug!

Wish they did that version with lights down here instead of PDS!

Still seriously tossing up going to one tho.
