May 29, 20179 yr Are there any owners of Montesa 300rr? like to hear how this bike handles and performs. It sure looks good new, maybe black colour is not so practical??
May 29, 20179 yr Compared with a 260 Montesa 4rt the difference to me feels relatively minor. Much less than that between a current 250 (249cc) and 300 (usually about 290cc) two stroke. It does have that plush and high quality suspension, like the Repsol. The black frame looks pretty ordinary, nothing special. It's slightly matt. A good bike for a Montesa fan perhaps, looking for a little bit more oomph.
May 30, 20179 yr Ive heard guys that did the ssdt were using a lot of oil in the 300rr. I have a 2015 repsol with the 280 kit fitted and its just as lively as a 300rr
May 30, 20179 yr haven't they added an extra piston ring to the latest RR - be interesting if those using oil were old or new versions
May 30, 20179 yr Mine isn't using oil. I like mine but it's taking me a fair amount of adjusting to coming off a really potent 300 2t. I find I'm a slight bit less capable but am enjoying it more. I'm still adapting to get the timing right on this bike (300rr), but getting better each outing.

They say the new piston also has a flatter top. I have a 2016 300RR and it has no measurable oil consumption between the oil change intervals. I must say it doesn't get used as intensely as a SSDT bike and has only 36 hours of use. I find the 300 RR much more powerful than my previous 2015 260 Repsol. It really wants to go, on the full power map. I love the black frame and engine, but scratches will be more visible of course. Edited May 30, 20179 yr by guys
May 30, 20179 yr I have a 2017 300RR on the way, delivery date has been pushed back 3 times now... If it ever comes in I will give an update on what I think in comparison to my current 07 4RT.
May 30, 20179 yr I put money down on my 300rr back on Nov 4th 2016 at a dealership in Dallas due its first due date was Jan 26th then April 26th then May 18th now May 30th gonna call today to see what the next date is gonna be. Im still riding my 2016 250 repsol I too will give an update okay here's my new update now they say June 6th Edited May 31, 20179 yr by bbk
May 31, 20179 yr My black frame bits are not showing any premature wear as you'd expect. The airbox + airbox sticker is already getting worn a but as it's pretty wide back there.
May 31, 20179 yr Author Any pictures? how is the Montesa rated when it comes to reliability?? had Sherco 290. Not perfect but still overall good and VERY reliable Edited May 31, 20179 yr by motoxleo
June 6, 20179 yr i have an 2006 4rt only thing thats been done to her is 2 sets of fork seals and dont know how many fenders ive gone thru they are Hondas they just keep going and going it still starts on the 1st or 2nd kick . I buying another one
June 7, 20179 yr Well i can hardly believe it but the Dallas dealership called today and said i can pick up my bike tomorrow 7 months after I put the money down on it. Look forward to giving feed back about the the bike.

I didnt buy an 2016 repsol i put the money down on a 2017 300rr back on Nov.4 2016 after tomorrow i will be able to say something about the differance between 06 250 repsol and the 300rr
