T
he Italian manufacturer Beta has in-
troduced its new line of 2017 off-road
bikes, and the big news is they have
combined its previous RR (purely off-road)
four-stroke range with its RS (dual sport)
line to create one new RR-S line of street-
legal enduro bikes, which it says will now
fill the segment of "street-legal off-road,"
which is similar to what KTM and Husqvar-
na have done with their new enduro line of
street-legal bikes. The RR-S line replaces
the RR and RS lines. The two-stroke 250
and 300 models, however, are still called
RR and are purely off-road.
The RR-S range will feature four four-
stroke models—350, 390, 430 and 500
RR-S—and two RR two-stroke models—250
and 300 RR.
All RR-S models will be available in the
U.S. in November.
All of Beta's off-
road four-strokes
(RR-S) are street-
legal now.
