Nice!

What made you go XCW over XC?

Out of curiosity, was it MSRP + fees?
Eyeballing a 21 Beta 300 Race edition if i can convince the wife to move up to my Xtrainer. Seems they're all MSRP + delivery. No one wanting to move so far.

Wow Congratulations!

Make sure and try some different settings on the fork, the OEM recommended settings are a little off. A little more air and a little less compression damping seems to be the way to go.

The 21 air fork is totally different than the 2020 and earlier.

I decided on the xcw because I recently rode one and loved and plus my last bike was a xcw and works great for the riding I normally do. Plus it came with the xplor fork so non air which I also liked. As far as price they weren't really willing to budge even when me and my brother were both ready to buy. They said this was their last 300 they were getting for the year so I went for it!

Wow I'm kinda too old for a 2 stroke but if I was to get one that would be the bike.

And yes I think the xc W is a better all round versatile machine with taller gearing and it looks like it comes with a lights where the XC would not right?

Those two differences are huge!
Congratulations!

I have a 350XCFW and luv it.

XCWs come with the XPLOR spring fork, if I’m not mistaken
