VOLUME 56 ISSUE 29 JULY 23, 2019 P63 L ike the 2020 Beta RR-S four-strokes, the RR two-strokes get major overhauls. But the big news here is counter balancers have found their way onto the RR 250 and 300. Counter balancers go a long way in re- ducing engine vibration and improving power delivery. The 250 gets a redesigned cylinder head to improve torque at low rpm. The RR 125 gets a handful of updates. It has a new cylinder, exhaust flange, exhaust valve system and new boosters, a new clutch cover, and a new exhaust pipe. Beta claims the 125 RR has improved torque at low rpm with greater power at high revs. All models have larger capacity fuel tanks—2.4 gallons for the four-strokes and 2.55 gallons for the two-strokes. Other chang- es (to all models) include wider handlebars, side stands with a bigger foot pad, new foot- pegs, chain guide, brake pedal, seat, license plate bracket, new map switch, redesigned skid plate and new frame protectors. There are plenty other smaller changes, as well. CN MSRP 125 RR: ......$7999 200 RR:......$8699 250 RR: .....$8799 300 RR: .....$9199
