    Identifying a KTM off-roader?

    I have been given a KTM MOTO X bike (deceased estate), been trying to use the KTM serial number charts on line to help pin it down but the numbers I have don't seem to compare.

    The engine is a 2 stroke and the engine number ends in 300R.
    Can anyone advise what model this might be?

    Cheers.

    Hey mate, post the frame number and I'll have a look through the ID list I have tucked away somewhere.

    There's no decals or stickers with the model on it anywhere on the bike? Is it orange?

    Hi - it's orange but can't find anything else on other than a bit of writing on the expansion chamber which didn't give any real info.

    White plastics? Kick start on the left side? I can't ID it but it seems old. Are you sure it's MX and not enduro? Maybe 300 wr.

    Well things have been a bit quiet on the off road forum.

    But seriously have to ask the question.. no serial # stamped on the head, or engine# on the cases, no paperwork ? no decals, serial # on labels ?

    Hopefully I'm wrong and you can put my cynical mind at rest.
