Exclusive to the U.S., Beta’s RS models are serious dual-purpose bikes that have been made legal in all 50 states. Chrome-moly steel tubing double-cradles the RS 450’s KTM-built liquid-cooled, four-valve, four-stroke engine. Despite all of its street-legalizing equipment, however, the 450 is a very capable off-road machine, thanks in part to its 45mm Marzocchi fork, fully adjustable Sachs shock and the rest of its enduro-proven chassis. Also available: The RS 525, the same machine as the 450 but with 62cc more displacement.

Beta’s RR 450 is designed for enduro competition and is even California green-sticker-approved. The liquid-cooled motor, which is supplied by KTM, has electric starting but also comes with a kickstart lever-just in case-along with a Rekluse automatic clutch. The molybdenum steel frames are a double-cradle design with a fully adjustable fork and progressive-link rear suspension. Plus, 20 limited-edition full-race 450s will be sold. Also available: The RR 400 and RR 525, the same bikes except for displacement.

One by one, manufacturers of trials bikes have developed four-stroke machines, and Beta’s latest is the new EVO 300 4T. It’s powered by an extremely light and compact, single-overhead-cam, liquid-cooled four-valve motor. The ultra-light chassis involves a slim aluminum frame with a backbone that doubles as a fuel tank. Also available: The EVO 4T 250. essentially the very same observed-trials motorcycle but with a 47cc-smaller engine. Amazingly. both the 250 and the 300 are comparable in weight to their EVO two-stroke siblings.

Like its four-stroke models. Beta s top-of-the-line two-stroke trials bikes are now called EVO instead of Rev 3. The EVO 290 has an all-new, fuel-bearing, big backbone frame, just like on the 4T, and the swingarm and numerous other components have been improved and lightened. The 290 showcases Beta’s expertise in building high-quality trials machines that have won numerous world championships. Also available: The EVO 250. 200 and 125. all virtually identical to the 290 in every way except for displacement.

Trials riding is a great way to get kids started in motorcycling, since it teaches the fine points of balance and control at low speeds in a controlled environment. Betas Rev 80 is a great learning bike for young folk up to about 150 pounds, ideal for those “tweeners” in the family. It has all the features of the bigger machines, including a six-speed gearbox, full-size (21-inch front, 18-inch rear) wheels and disc brakes at both ends. Also available: The Minitrial 50. a much smaller, automatic-transmission model intended for kids 5 lo 9 years old.
