2023 Beta 300RR Race Edition TWO STROKE

#offroad #dirtbike #news #sports
The 2023 Beta 300RR Race Edition is a premium version of the classic 300cc two-stroke off-road bike. It does not have oil injection, but it has a long list of upgrades, including KYB suspension at both ends. The motor is also in a more aggressive state of tune, between a larger exhaust port, different power valve timing and a higher compression head. Under it all is a traditional design with a Keihin carburetor and a mechanical power valve. Check out our test of the bike on the trails around Glen Helen Raceway with Sean Lipanovich behind the bars.

Two strokes, keep 'em coming!!!

[@brianhardy1812]

Those race editions are the sexiest bikes out there. They look even better in the showroom than they do on film.

[@dustinfrancis560]

You are 150% correct. Best looking bikes hands down

[@bbarker5766]

I absolutely love the Beta's!! I have a 2018 300 RR RE that's awesome to me, but I'd love to throw a leg over the newer ones!

[@brianhardy1812]

I hear ya. I’ve been checking Beta’s site for the schedule on the demo days. I would like to ride that 300 and that 200. That 200 looks like a good time as well.

[@RocketRidez]

1000000% agree. The color is a part of the reason I bought my Beta RE. I love it. Best looking bikes off the line in my opinion! I love my Beta!

[@bbarker5766]

@Brian Hardy I'm actually thinking about trading my 300RE for a 200. I had an IT 200 growing up and loved it. I've ridden other 200's, and they're just a ton of fun! According to everyone I've talked to or vids, I've watched the Beta is just a blast and competitive, too.

[@TheKitchenTechnician]

Love my 2023 Beta 300RR. I have had four Yamaha WR 450’s over the last eight years and do a lot of single track. The Beta is so much easier to navigate with than the WR’s. I was discouraged from buying the race edition and I’m glad I went with the standard edition. I have always found the KYB suspension on the WR’s way to stiff for woods work, even on the softest settings. Your observations confirmed this also. Cheers from North Eastern Ontario Canada.

[@schectermf350]

Beta rarely wins on the technical front, but ride one and you will see what the fuss is all about. They are relentlessly the most FUN bikes you will ever ride. Just absolutely insane ridability.

[@timothynelson1052]

Can put a plate on the beta and it comes with a 6 month warranty. Plus it doesn't blow up or break down on the 2nd day like the KTMs either! Also they don't change the injection style every year either. Still can't beat a well tuned carb and nothing to fail out in the middle of nowhere!! It's a no brainer for me

[@MichaelSchwab-nk4rm]

Well Said

[@robertrishel3685]

Such a gorgeous looking machine!😍😍😍😍

[@Shercal58]

Badly want one of these bikes, one of my dream bikes, Ive ridden my mates one and it feels amazing.

[@user-lt3mc9io9g]

Absolutely cannot compare to a KTM 300 though

[@jeanlavallee2887]

What a sweet bike!!

[@burstcasino]

Love my '22 300rr re. Loved my departed '17 300rr re. Kinda have a little KYB shock envy...

[@rochellestanley9532]

Great bike..

[@juniorsmith996]

2stroke for life

[@alangolightly9850]

Ron rocks!

[@germancontreras4448]

Thoughts on the 23 250 rr race edition?

[@dandersen464]

Whoever does the cover music for these videos makes it seem like you are going to be testing new quilting needles.

[@simplejackenduro]

I’m just hoping that Ron and company leave boyscout alone for the 10hr. Looked nice and rocky in the vid!

[@shameelali2549]

L9ve the beta,but love the sherco more.

[@forestdudes8710]

In our town store they have a Beta RR 300 racing with the blue anodized rims, just a dream to Look at . But way to expensive to afford for me 😅😕

[@bikersoncall]

I'd love to see that, I prefer rims that aren't just blacked out, some accent or bare metal looks so much better to me.

[@the_real_yungtoon]

Would this be faster then a 250 2 stroke from Yamaha or kx

[@aaronmcelhinney1436]

Can anyone comment on whether the rock hard stock seat softens up after a little use? Or do you just need to immediately replace it with an aftermarket seat?

[@matt23727]

Nope.

[@MichaelSchwab-nk4rm]

No. It definitely does NOT loosen up. It's hard and uncomfortable AF

[@dursunyalcin5952]

Bunun fiyatı ne kadar kaç silindir mesele mesele işte

[@jamesking4225]

The race edition’s only come with one powervalve spring

[@bikersoncall]

I watched a vid that mentioned $14.00 ea for the other springs, I think there are 3 springs something like green yellow red ...shrugs.

[@jamesking4225]

@@bikersoncall yes you can get different springs but as far as what they come with they only come with the outer spring, not the inner like on the standard additions

[@user-ds6wl9ms3g]

Is it wideratio

[@coltonpratt5428]

Yes

[@FrankyboyGiovanni-yz8qi]

U americans calls 450 xcfw dual sport. In europe it is a racebike .... xc line is a honda foldwing in woods

[@bobbyblenio4571]

Can they make the Baffle Any Longer🤦‍♂️….& Why does an Italian Bike have Japanese Forks ? What happened to Marzocci ? at Least put WP or Ohlins on it😖

[@matthewkantola8638]

You changed the tires, good move! They suck.

[@jgs1703]

Do the Beta 125 next!

[@desert-timber-outdoors6577]

My only gripe, if it is a carb bike with a mechanical power valve and is so “simple”…… why do they have it priced the same as the latest and greatest fuel injected two stroke technology bikes…. 🙄 should be much cheaper if it doesn’t have all the technology involved.

[@tripac3392]

You are trading a ton of upgrades that those other bikes don't have.

[@boostedreefer1041]

T but even the fuel injected bikes have slot of issues from the factory and require a new flash, air screw mod, etc. they are cheaper then KTM and have more little features that KTM doesn’t

[@stedge8151]

Aren't KTM's made in China also. These are made in Italy so manufacturing costs will be higher.

[@user-pm8sx1kn4k]

It’s 2024 it should be fuel injected

[@onthethrottle7104]

Why? Just because FI is out doesn't mean it's better. Reliability is carb and carbs run better. I'm a KTM TBI fan but there is nothing better and more reliable than carbs.

[@chadrides914]

Wow this was a lackluster review. Pretty Low effort if you ask me.

[@woodsrider117]

Generic.. This bike is great though.

[@chadrides914]

@@woodsrider117 yeh I’m getting one soon.

[@fernandogoncalves9065]

Honda colors!? Why?

[@therealcountrybumpkin]

It’s not! The red is more neon

[@woodsrider117]

Beta was around way longer than Honda

[@RocketRidez]

@@woodsrider117 true that. I don’t think people realize Beta was founded in 1905, they made their first bike in 1948; the Cervo 48. I believe Honda was founded in 1948, and developed their first bike in 1949; the Honda Dream D. Correct me if I’m wrong!

[@timothynelson1052]

Honda doesn't have a patten on red buddy

[@Mockle07]

lol there are only so many colours 🤦🏼‍♂️ 😂
