BETA UNVEILS 2018 250/300RR
B
eta's 2018 250 and 300 RR
two-stroke off-roaders get
a major overhaul for the new
model year. The biggest news is
that they are 10 pounds lighter,
and 3.7 of those pounds come
from the engine alone.
Just about everything in the
engine has been reworked,
including the new clutch,
transmission, airbox and start-
ing system, which Beta says is
reliable enough that they feel
confident in eliminating the
backup kickstart lever. (You can,
however, still order them with
manual kickstart).
The chassis gets a major
overhaul, as well. The frame
has been re-worked, the fork is
all-new and the shock has new
settings.
The 250 and 300 RR are
scheduled to arrive in August.
Despite all of the changes,
MSRP remains the same—
$8499 for both. CN
The 2018 Beta 250
and 300 RR two-stroke
off-roaders get a major
overhaul without a
price increase.
