What do I think about BETA RR300 2022 after 15 HOURS ?

[@ncguy6518]

I currently ride a ktm but imo the beta is the best looking bike made right now. Sweet ride man 🤙🏻

thanks 😊

[@robmccauley1073]

Just got one myself. Amazing Bike.

[@TheDirtbikeRider]

which one?

[@helavatar]

I have a Beta 200 RR 2-stroke and I dented the radiators - works well. I ride it as a trials bike most of the time so it made sense for me - for faster stuff I can still turn out the limiting bolts and rise the front forks to make it more stable for faster tracks. I also don't see the need for KYB front forks for hobby riders since most re-valve these to be softer anyway. The only mod I will be getting for the rear shock - is the gas reservoir - had issues with it when the air temperatures were high. The shock got very stiff and I was told that the piston just started to stick. Also swapped the clutch master for a 9mm since I like the trials bike clutch feel.

[@TheDirtbikeRider]

really nice information bro, so you find these forks enough for riding 😎

[@helavatar]

@@TheDirtbikeRider Yes. But I have to get the springs changed for my weight (I am 75kg with all my gear and 3L of water :D). My friends who ride new KTM or GasGas have the internals heavily tuned (swapped to regular springs) on forks and some have KYB internals for WP forks.

[@PotatoeJoe69]

This 300cc engine is really an animal. 4 stroke low end torque and 2 stroke high end power. It's just crazy.

[@Coopdegras]

Thumbs up for that hill climb at the start 👍🏼

thanks for the nice comment, the snow has melted and the rides will start soon, there will be a lot of videos this year

[@FamousLive11]

Happy to see you enjoy your new Bike! Maybe you can make a video on tires (sizes) to see the options…

[@E63s_Scott]

I just bought a 23 300rr with 15hr on it, all the good points people say… the motor is an animal but for me the bike is a sky scraper especially at the rear it’s 2 inches taller than my mx husky I’m sure it’s a really good bike for people over 5,10 and heavy but my little legs are struggling, I’m 12 stone in kit but can’t get the rider sag anywhere near correct on stock spring, I didn’t think the forks where that good either I’m probs gonna sell and get a 300tpi probs a gas gas with a lowering link and enjoy the much better brembos and gear levers that don’t fall off all the time and much less vibration in the pegs hmm I’m not sold

Thank you very much for all the information! What do you think of a BETA RR250 2022 as a first enduro bike?

[@ady23nos]

Very nice and good reviews on bike. BUT u need to make some versus reviews on ktm vs sherco vs beta!!!!

[@TheDirtbikeRider]

As soon as possible i will do it

[@mikebarger3563]

So do you like the fatty 90/100-21 front tire? Does it make the bike feel less agile?

[@andrepalmer6605]

Have one on my KTM, big tires make it turn slow in fast stuff, but good for shity slow tech tracks.

[@TheDirtbikeRider]

It’s making more stable bike and you can really feel it, And i don’t feel the bike is less agile. Maybe in muddy terrain you will feeling it because mud will stick to tire. But really fatty tire like hulkboy from xgrip will make bike feel more heavy and less agile but it’s going to be really stable on speeds

[@AlbertKlanort]

hello, Beta RR 300 or Sherco se factory 300, which is more powerful, more aggressive, more brutal, more reliable, faster in the forest on difficult trails and difficult climbs thanks to the people who will answer me!🤝🏻

[@Traaawz]

Beta are more smoother on power delivery, they still have that zap that you need in slower riding. From what I heard shet I has more snappy power overall

[@onthethrottle7104]

You will be back on KTM, watch. It happened to me too. I went Beta and thought the world of it, but then stuff started to go bad and when I got back on a KTM I could ride much better again.

[@TheDirtbikeRider]

Everyone has own options, beta has good things and bad it’s same with ktm. I don’t say anything which bike is better.

[@brannonmeador1792]

No way in hell will I ever touch a ktm again, sherco and beta are so much better to ride

[@Jose-hu3he]

I have beta, it's a good bike but I hate carburettor, I hate the consumption, and having to premix ...so in the near future, bye bye, bye bye carburettor ...good video...

[@TheDirtbikeRider]

hmm my works good , its easy to adjust it to make bike work correct.

[@donniemcfarland3160]

But unless you have a race edition you don’t have to mix gas? So why do you have to mix gas?

[@glahut93]

I'm 6'3 and bike just seems to small and cramped like a Sherco. Guess I'm keeping my Husqvarna tx300

[@E63s_Scott]

The bike is thin but it ain’t small it’s way taller than husky’s I have a 350 and 300rr next to each other in the garage the beta is a sky scraper at the rear

[@Cyril_Harperink_87]

I'm weighing 92 kg dry so without equipment, so for me the sag is a little bit too soft and so are the compression and rebound settings even with the KYB fork on the 2022 model. I put a 13x48 sprocket and it fits perfectly for a 2nd gear. I love this bike so much. More than my previous 2021 Sherco 300 2 stroke factory. Easier and stronger. I will do some mods like you did. Change the grips. I added a longer AXP skid plate and more protections. Will you put a fan on yours ?

[@TheDirtbikeRider]

so kyb was soft? i already have fan and radiator protection

[@brandonfernandez2]

I currently have a 2021 sherco se300. Thinking about switching brands because of weight… how do you like the beta in comparison to the se300?

[@maniacmike8613]

Hey I have also the Beta 2022 300 and I really Love the Bike! I wanted to ask you, what kind of Chest Protection you are using, and if you wear it under or over your Shirt ? Im looking for a new Chest Protection

[@reedneff9499]

Do you ever get a knocking noise at low rpm? I have the same bike and am trying to figure out if it is normal. My first beta and really like it other than the noise

[@ME-gh1wy]

Mine does it too but only when the bike is starting in cold weather. I noticed it and I suspect it is because the bike needs time to warm up.

[@TheDirtbikeRider]

Yeah but it’s normal on betas

[@ricksdb6092]

Mine also 2021 250. I also have a lot of clutch chatter (noise) but goes away as soon as I pull the clutch lever in. I run a 9mm master cylinder also - Ktm powerparts.

[@nealdries360]

I have this as well, I have a 2022 300RR with 13 hrs on it and it knocks when idling if it’s cooler outside. I wasn’t sure if I was just using too low of an octane gas or not. Aside from that I’ve had no issues

[@DenisElpashev]

Don't agree with you on Nissin brakes. They are really much much weaker than Brembo, you need to press the lever twice as hard to have same stopping power, at least the Nissin I had on my Yamaha yz250x. Now on my KTM 150sx with brembo I can easily lock the front wheel with just slight pressure of one finger (had to use 2 finger with full power to make a stoppie on Yamaha)

[@TheDirtbikeRider]

hmm maybe it depends on the bike, for now they work and i can easily lock front wheel with just small pull on front brake without effort

[@jonnyhumphreys9133]

You're the first I've seen say that. Most complain they are too grabby and make the front lock up...too strong...not that they are too weak. I use 1 finger and still have to be very careful.

[@DenisElpashev]

@@jonnyhumphreys9133 What bike do you have? Maybe they are a little different on different bikes, on my YZ250X it was really weak whatever I tried, changing brake pads, rotor, installing braided line, even changing the caliper completely (thought it might be damaged somehow), still had to use 2 fingers to be able to lock the wheel on speed. It wasn't big of a problem though, stopping power was good on the trails, just couldn't do stoppies with one finger... Now on KTM with Brembo brakes I can easily lock the wheel with slightest pull...

[@jonnyhumphreys9133]

@@DenisElpashev 2022 Beta 300RR. The reviews I've seen said the Brembo has more feel and easier modulation, but no difference in stopping power. Just less likely to tuck the front in a corner or down hill.

My only complaint is the plastics are really brittle. I snapped the rear fender off looping out a pivot turn with less than 3hrs on mine. I saw the IRC Tire guy snap his front fender off on a stoppy. I replaced with all Polysport. Great review!! Can you share your clicker settings, front and back?

[@ThisHandleIsntAvailableTryANew]

im still unsure why a 2 stroke is preferred for anything but drag racing. what can a 2 stroke do enduro/hillclimb wise that a 450f cant do. lighter maybe? maybe im just stupid and clueless about enduro

[@Scottymuffins]

The characteristics of the 2 strokes lend themselves nicely to enduro/hard enduro riding. If you rode all day on a decently technical trail with a newer 250/300 2 stroke and then did the same ride on a 450 you’d understand I think. 450’s are amazing but theyre a lot to handle in tight technical terrain and they overheat easily. The 300 isn’t a slouch either but At the end of the day it’s all preference but there’s a reason you see very few 4 strokes on the tougher hard enduro races. Even the best in the world choose the 300 in most enduro/hard enduro races over 4 strokes

[@bluegrassbassing3790]

Much lighter and lug much easier. 450s have such light flywheels they “flame out” but they don’t thrive as a slower revving bike like a trail 2t can

[@1991enduro]

2 strokes produce a lot of torque low down in the gear and a lot of bhp power on top plus they are light and cheaper to fix than a four stroke and your mentioning a track race bike a lot different you would get fatigued quicker on that heavy ass 450

[@onthethrottle7104]

Well, there is a good reason why they use only two stroke on hard enduro. Four strokes are heavy, they stall out and the power is not good for slow moving hard trails at all. Think of where you need something that's light, and that loves to live in high RPM range - four strokes hate high RPM and in low RPM they stall out.
