The best just got better!
There's always room for improvement! Nobody understands this better than
the official riders of the Betamotor team : Steve Holcombe, winner of the
Enduro 2 World Championship, Enduro GP and Assoluti d’Italia titles, and
Brad Freeman, winner of the Enduro 3 World Championship. Undisputed leaders of
the 2020 season of the Enduro Championship , they are already hard at work for
the 2021 editio n . Another firm believer in this statement is Jonny Walker,
who chose Beta as the team to take his extreme enduro performance to the next
level in 2021. And Beta's fans also know this, as they continue to choose its
products and make the Tuscan brand one of the best sellers in its class.
Spurred on by this success, Beta has introduced major new features and
upgrades for the MY 2022 versions of its 2 - stroke and 4 - stroke RR models ,
tak ing the already highly acclaimed capabilities of the pre vious models to
extraordinary new heights. The upgrades introduced on the brand's 4 - stroke
and, in particular, 2 - stroke models are significant, concerning both the
powertrain and the suspension and frame, while new graphics give the whole
range a no - compro mise racing look. The goal of the engineers of Rignano
sull’Arno for the MY 2022 RR range was to fine - tune th eir vehicles
without altering their unique character, accentuating all the outstanding
qualities setting each individual model apart.
Following Bet a tradition , the RR range encompasses all the enduro models
of the brand , with no exception. High - performing and s ophisticated bikes
that manage to appeal a broad range of users, thanks to the continuous work of
the engineers of the Tuscan brand meant to constantly improve these machines
and make their impressive power and performance easily accessible to all.
As always, the range is made of 8 different models, each with its own
personality, to cater for the needs of any rider . There's the perfect RR for
every rider, even though they all share the ability to instil confidence in
the user and offer a genuinely rewarding riding experience. The key
characteristics of each mo del are
CHARACTERISTICS OF RR MODELS
2 STROKE
| 125cc |
200cc |
250cc |
300cc |
| The
smallest bike in the Beta range, it is the lightest and easiest to
handle. In pure racing style, it is suitable for both young riders
coming up from the lower categories and more expert riders looking for a
fun bike. |
The
chassis set up and engine derive from its smaller sister, ensuring an
extremely contained weight and excellent handling but with decidedly
greater torque and power. Oil injection and an electric starter make
this a complete bike, just perfect for Enduro enthusiasts. |
Ideal
for those looking for a gentler 2 stroke bike with slightly less power
and torque than top of the range models to ensure excellent handling. |
Made
for those who appreciate a big engine with significant torque at any
speed. Suitable for those who favor long gearing. |
4 STROKE
| 350cc |
390cc |
430cc |
480cc |
| This
is the easiest to handle bike in the 4 stroke model range; it favors
high rev riding yet retains a very linear power output. |
With
an ideal handling to power ratio, its winning feature lies in its
outstanding traction. |
A
high performance engine that is at its best when the rider exploits the
long gearing and significant torque. |
This
bike best expresses itself in wide open spaces. Its characteristics are
similar to the 430 model but with even greater torque and power,
suitable for more expert and physically fit riders. |
The most significant upgrades and new features introduced for
the MY 2022 RR range are:
For all models
-
Suspension : the rear mono - shock gains new compression
damping settings with independent high and low speed damping rates.
This prevents the two parameters from influencing each other and limiting
the customization of the setting. The se ttings available for the fork
have been revised to improve rideability and precision during extreme use.
The fork tubes are now different in colour, thanks to the new anodising
process which improves the surface hardness and corrosion - resistance of
the com ponent
-
Graphics : all models now feature a new all - red colour
scheme. Combined with the new graphics, which perfectly match the shape
and componentry of the bike, the new style gives the bike a very sleek,
race - bred look.
In addition to these range - wide up grades, a number of more
specific and substantial modifications have been introduced on certain models
to accentuate their unique and unmistakeable personality.
Specifically:
RR 300 2 Str
-
Engine : the engine has been completely revised, with an
all - new lar ger bore cylinder, a new piston and a new power valve;
-
Crankshaft : new shorter throw crankshaft, for a
shorter piston stroke than the previous model;
-
Cylinder head : the head is also completely new, and has
been redesigned in consideration of the other new components and the new
iridium spark plug;
-
Silencer : the smaller diameter silencer improves the top
- end performance and tractability of the engine;
-
Clutch with diaphragm springs : the 300 model gains a new
clutch, with smoother and le ss strenuous control action, more effective
engagement and increased transmissible torque. This clutch also features
mechanically adjustable spring preload, offering a choice of 3 settings
with a specific adjuster ring.
The RR 300 2 Stroke has received th e most substantial and far
- reaching modifications of the entire range.
The new engine, combined with a dedicated new engine control
unit map, boasts smoother and more progressive response to throttle input and
more linear power delivery. Despite the signif icant hike in maximum power,
the bike as a whole is also easier to handle and more intuitive and forgiving
to use than before.
RR 250 2 Str
-
Clutch with diaphragm springs : this solution makes the
clutch action lighter, more progressive and more controllable,
significantly reducing rider fatigue. Both engagement and disengagement
have been improved, while the clutch is now capable of transmitting even
more torque. What's more, to allow for totally customisable set - up,
three different spring preloa d settings are available, adjustable with a
simple mechanical procedure;
RR 125 2 Str
RR 4 Str
-
Electronic control unit : the most significant new feature
on all 4 - stroke models is the new and more sophisticated electronic
control unit. This unit has been improved to offer better “dry/wet”
map management a nd take advantage of the engine brake effect more
effectively, to let the rider make full use of the potential of the
engine. The map selector button remains in its familiar position between
the fuel tank and the headstock, where it is easily accessible bu t
protected against accidental knocks bumps which could inadvertently change
the setting or break the button itself;
-
Transmission : a lighter new primary transmission has been
introduced across the entire 4 stroke range, while these models are also
equipped with the new clutch with diaphragm spring with 3 user - settable
spring preload levels, with more progressive and smoother control action
and, as already mentioned, increased transmissible torque.
