The Lightweight King: Rieju MRT 300 Leads the 300cc Weight Battle

Enduro University Desk 2026-08-01
The Lightweight King: Rieju MRT 300 Leads the 300cc Weight Battle

We compare the weights and power of the leading 300cc two-strokes to see which brand offers the best power-to-weight ratio.

In the world of enduro, every kilogram counts, and our latest comparison of the 300cc two-stroke class reveals some surprising winners. The 2025 Rieju MRT 300 takes the title of the lightest machine in the category, weighing in at a mere 104kg while still producing a competitive 44hp. This makes it an incredibly agile choice for riders who prioritize maneuverability in technical 'hard' enduro sections.

Close behind are the KTM 300 EXC TPI and Husqvarna TE 300, both weighing 105kg but leading the class in raw performance with 47hp each. The Beta RR 300 Racing also sits at the 105kg mark with 47hp, offering a high-performance alternative. Meanwhile, the GasGas EC 300 comes in at 107kg with 46hp. For those who don't mind a bit of extra mass for added stability, the Yamaha WR 300 weighs 110kg with 45hp, providing a very different trail feel compared to the lightweight Rieju.
