Betamotor technicians managed to keep the development activity going through the COVID-19 pandemic. The team worked with the factory riders James Dabill, Benoit Bincaz, Matteo Grattarola, and Luca Petrella to develop this new 2021 Beta Evo range.
The two-stroke version is available in four displacements: 125, 250, 300 & 300 SS. “SS” stands for “Super Smooth”. This means that thanks to the additional weight on the flywheel for increased inertia and other small measures, Beta claims the SS model is more manageable at medium-low revs if compared to the Standard version – still maintaining the racing nature at higher revs. Beta says this makes the 300 SS extremely easy and to ride in difficult terrain.
The four-stroke version comes in the usual 300cc displacement.
The Beta EVO has an all-new look for 2021 but breaking down the technical improvements, Beta has enhanced the suspension settings, both in the fork and in the shock absorber. For the fork, new settings provide a more progressive approach when facing major obstacles, along with a better absorption capacity of small bumps, Beta claims.
While the shock absorber has been revised to improve balance and pitch reduction, especially when encountering a series of small bumps.
In the engine department, the carburettor has been revised on all two-stroke and two-stroke models, including the 300 SS, with Beta claiming the revised settings ensure better rideability in all conditions. Ignition mapping has also been improved, giving a more linear and predictable engine response.
The 2021 Beta EVO range will be available from November. Contact www.betamotor.com.au for more info.
