wins in the Assoluti d’Italia as well as
Beta USA’s Max Gerston winning the
AMA Hare Scramble Championship.
Work has focused on both the engine
and the chassis setup, with particular
attention being paid to the suspension
- front and rear - now fitted with top-
drawer ZF Sachs components which are
much more advanced than those used
in the past in that adjustments can be
made with no tools needed.
KEY RR MODEL FEATURES:
2-STROKE
125, 200, 250, 300
The smallest bike in the Beta range,
the lightest and easiest to handle of
them all. In pure racing style, suitable
for both young riders coming up from
the lower categories and more expert
riders looking for a fun bike.
The chassis and engine design derive
from its smaller sister the 125, while
providing broader torque and ensuring
extremely low weight and great han-
dling but with decidedly higher torque
and power. Oil injection and electric
start make this a complete bike that is
just perfect for Off Road enthusiasts of
all ages and ability.
Ideal for those looking for a gentler
2-stroke bike with slightly less power
and torque than the top-of-the-range
models to ensure excellent handling.
Offers a lighter feel overall from the 300
RR models.
Made for those who like big-displace-
ment engines with outstanding torque
at any rpm. The perfect bike for those

who enjoy riding long distances on
smooth or fast terrain.
4-STROKE
350, 390, 430, 500
This is the easiest-to-handle bike in
the 4-stroke model range; it favors
high-rev riding while providing a very
linear power output.
An engine with no competition, the
390 feels like a 350 yet offers more
torque with less shifting. A true all-
around bike that is creating a class of its
own.
High performance engine that ap-
peals to all riders looking for a 450
class bike. Quick-revving with plenty
of torque provides both play riders
and top level racers a package that will
meet their demands
This bike expresses itself best in wide
open spaces. Its characteristics are
similar to the 430 model but with even
higher torque and power and requires
less shifting. Great for long excursions.
