 
RR MY 2019
An even more advanced, complete range
The new Beta RR my 2019 arrives on the market with a broader range than in
previous years. The Tuscan bike builder, in fact, hasn't just been working
towards a more refined product with significant technical improvements: it's
also introduced a new 200 cc engine. A 2-stroke that, following the recent
introduction of the 125 cc, completes the product range, which now features no
less than eight different models.
The Beta philosophy is to make sure each engine size has its own distinct
personality so as to meet the specific needs of every enduro rider.
Given the engine size and low weight, the newly arrived RR 200 2T has
inherited the chassis set-up of the 125. More specifically, the frame, in
chrome molybdenum with double cradle split above the exhaust port, has been
designed for small engine displacements. It features revised main dimensions
and ensures optimal engine positioning. The chassis, an offshoot of its
smaller 125cc sister - is characterized by a special layout that aims to
optimize weight distribution and engine dynamics.
This model, thanks to the introduction of the automatic oil injector and
the electric start, it's a great all-around bike for those looking for some
epic Enduro or off-road free time fun.
The new 200cc, showed in preview during the Press Presentation of the
Enduro MY 2019 range, will go into production during the next Autumn.
Of course, there's been no lack of upgrades across the existing range
either, with improvements stemming from extensive race experience: in the last
two years Beta has won two EnduroGP Manufacturers World Championships, an
Enduro3 World Title and EnduroGP title with Steve Holcombe, an Enduro Junior
World Title with Brad Freeman and two wins in the Assoluti dItalia.
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.
 Following intensive across-the-range development and technical refinement,
the biggest new features on the RR my 2019 models can be summed up as:
Engine
2-Stroke:
New engine control unit (ECU): guarantees a more powerful spark at high revs,
improving combustion and engine performance.
Clutch actuator with wider diameter: gives the clutch lever a softer, more
responsive feel.
New BPV exhaust valve opening adjustment (on 300 cc only): allows
extremely linear power delivery, creating a high-performance engine that is
easy to use under extreme conditions.
BPV centrifugal unit contrast springs kit (on 300 cc only): supplied with
the bike to extend the bike's scope for personalization according to the
rider's needs. Thanks to springs with a spring rate lower than the standard
ones, performance is better at mid-high revs, giving fuller, more decisive
power delivery.
Stiffer clutch cover (on 125 cc only): improves operation and produces a
more precise bite-release action.
New expansion chamber (on 250/300cc only): ensures increased performance
throughout the rev range.
4-Stroke:
New throttle control: designed by Domino exclusively for Beta for improved
engine response to minimal throttle twists, giving optimized traction even on
the most difficult terrain.
New mapping for all engine sizes combined with the excellent response of
the new throttle control.
Clutch actuator with wider diameter: gives the clutch lever a softer, more
responsive feel.
Chassis:
New ZF Sachs (ψ 48 mm) fork with new adjustment system: allows
positioning of the compression, rebound and spring preload adjusters on the
upper fork cap; they can be reached while sitting on the bike and do not
require tools. The fork also benefits from a new packing system which ensures
greater stability and a slider with special anodizing that reduces friction
and increases durability.
New fork shoes (yoke): stiffer and lighter.
New fork guards: designed together with the shoe to combine practicality
and design.
Fully redesigned ZF Sachs shock: with more compact ψ 46 mm piston, about
300g lighter. The new piston has been designed to ensure more stable operation
as the oil temperature varies and increased sensitivity to enhance comfort and
traction. The small upper base and reservoir have also been redesigned to
rationalize the system and minimize weight and bulk. New spring is also
lighter.
New graphics and colors.
RR 200 cc 2-stroke.
 As
already mentioned, the introduction of the 200cc engine has broadened the RR
my 2019 range. These 2-stroke engines have, in addition to the above, the
following distinctive advantages:
Engine
Double piston rings (ψ 62 mm): component designed to ensure high rigidity
and reliability; the choice of double rings provides a better seal at the low
and medium revs that typify Enduro riding.
Beta progressive valve: made-in-Beta system characterized by a special
relationship between the opening of the main flap and that of the side
boosters. The delayed opening of the boosters enables excellent performance
progression throughout the engine's rpm range.
Crankshaft with polyamide inserts: favors lightness and ensures optimum
filling of the crankcase, boosting performance and reliability.
Cylinder: has an exhaust flange system as on the bigger engines, enabling
better control of frontal piston-flap-cylinder play. By keeping this value to
a minimum, it is possible to achieve a significant low-rev performance boost
by reducing gas leakage.
Aluminum demountable cylinder head dome: rigid and lightweight solution
made possible by shifting the engine mount on to the cylinder. The geometry of
the combustion chamber is designed to ensure a high-efficiency thermodynamic
cycle and obtain the best compromise between responsiveness at low-to-medium
revs and during spurts. It also facilitates fine tuning and replacement of the
combustion chamber.
Die-cast crankcase in aluminum alloy: the casing geometries were designed
according to an innovative layout in terms of the relative position of
components and with a view to maximum weight reduction without compromising
structural strength. Considerable attention was focused on the main bearing
area to ensure correct wall rigidity in order to withstand the stresses
transmitted by the crankshaft.
Die-cast crankcase covers in magnesium alloy: ensure very low weight and
optimal surface finish. It also proved possible to adopt this solution for the
inner clutch cover thanks to isolation of the water pump from this element.
Vforce4 reed valve packet: the stoppers ensure high reliability without
compromising performance.
6-speed dog-box transmission: specially developed for small Beta engines
with gears made from forged blanks to provide mechanical strength and
reliability while still keeping size and weight extremely low.
Clutch: multi-disc in oil bath with reverse opening, actuator integrated into
the outer cover. This is a system designed for maximum engine lightness and
compactness. Thanks to low-slung positioning, it ensures reduction of power
unit size and a significant centralization of weight, crucial for good chassis
dynamics.
Exhaust system: to optimize the 2-stroke engine's torque and power curves,
the Beta R&D Department has developed a special system dedicated to this
engine size.
Electric start: perfect start-up convenience whatever the situation.
Automatic oil injection: eliminates the need for a fuel-oil premix.
Chassis:
Geometry of the new upper coupling points: various solutions were
investigated and developed before reaching a final one that has allowed a
reduction in engine-generated vibration while maintaining good engine-frame
system stiffness.
New ZF Sachs (ψ 48 mm) fork with new adjustment system: allows
positioning of the compression, rebound and spring preload adjusters on the
upper fork cap; they can be reached while sitting on the bike and do not
require tools. The fork also benefits from a new packing system which ensures
greater stability and a slider with special anodizing that reduces friction
and increases durability.
New fork shoes (yoke): stiffer and lighter.
New fork guards: designed together with the shoe to combine practicality
and design.
Fully redesigned ZF Sachs shock with more compact ψ 46 mm piston. The new
piston has been designed to ensure more stable operation as the oil
temperature varies and increased sensitivity to enhance comfort and traction.
The small upper base and reservoir have also been redesigned to rationalize
the system and minimize weight and bulk. New spring is also lighter.
Filter box air boot: designed for this engine type, it improves flow
across the entire rev range, even at low revs.
Engine guard: made from tough yet light polyamide, it features excellent
shielding to stop mud getting between the engine and the guard itself.
Fuel tank: compared to larger models, a slightly smaller tank has been
adopted to improve on-board ergonomics while maintaining good fuel autonomy.
Cooling system: specifically designed for this bike, features new pipes
and radiators with specially shaped reservoirs to fit the small 0size of the
motorcycle.
Nissin braking system: extremely powerful and configurable, the same as on
the rest of the Enduro range.
