KYB 48mm AOS Closed Cartridge front fork
Beta engineers working with KYB to provide a balanced feel to the bike during
racing or play riding.
New rear shock absorber with:
New top-out system, now a spring to improve grip and contact with the ground
during hard braking.
New longer shock bumper with more progressive compression. This ensures
good protection of the buffer and improves bottoming resistance.
New valving, to work in-line with the new frame.
Cooling system with water hoses placed inside the frame and more efficient
radiators. This improves heat transfer and allows engines to operate at lower tem-
peratures even in the most extreme conditions.
Larger capacity fuel tanks, of 2.4 US gallons for 4-strokes and 2.55 US gallons for
2-strokes. Besides providing greater range, the new fuel tanks improve ergonom-
ics and ease-of-movement in the seat.
Wider handlebars for greater control.
Exhaust with new layout in line with the bike’s new rear section.
Side stand with bigger foot pad.
New machined aluminum footpegs that are extra wide.
