Every corner has a berm, and it is hard to turn a tall bike on anything else. I could rail a berm on my Harley Sportster. You can also reduce your rear end sag to help cornering, but that makes a taller bike too, which sucks for cornering. bikes
Pssss---it is all the "pros" know how to do today. Maybe play with a suspension clicker, and change color/graphics.

they are definitely on the lower end with that. They aren't as good as a Japanese motorcycle, for sure... If you really. really care about the quality aspect, buy a Honda. With that said, I'd still buy one. Any major brand from US, Germany, Japan, England, Italy, France, Spain, and even Korea, is worth your money. Everything is pretty good these days. If you like the new Beta's, get one. It'll be fine. If you are worried about it. Buy a Honda or a Yamaha.

How do you know if a bike is too tall? The people "testing", (not really today, just a sales brochure), will never show themselves getting on the damn thing.
All they did was copy somebody else's designs, probably with tax payer money to come out with a electric bike next,=---for the EPA that most likely gave them our money to bulid the bike. Now, Cannondale did not copy anybody and we built in PA. USA. But MXA helped destroy the self sufficient company in 2001

How does it corner, berms to off camber? How does it take the bumps, (forget that, there are no bumps today, so you have no idea). How are the brakes and shifting? Tires? (the only thing I used to disagree with MXA about, as i am in Michigan. But not today.). How are the ergonomics, (too tall, we now skip that detail). Forget reliability testing. These tests today, are just sales brochures. You won't know a bike today, until you buy it and figure out all the bugs yourself. Just put a pic of the bike up man. We won't know anything else anyway,---from the "professionals" we have today in the media. You serve--the factories. Not the people who buy the bikes.
The bike is too tall, but MXA does not complain about that anymore, so they get taller, as if that is desirable for cornering. The prices are too high, sales are the lowest in USA history and some brands will stop production You might not be able to get parts in 5 years.
Beta has been around for over a 100 years and still have parts for bikes built in the 70s. The benefits of a smaller company is there parts support for there brand
The color scheme is hideous in my opinion. I'm sure there are others whose loins will start twitching like a wounded lizard when they see the bike though.
Yeah the looks are definitely polarizing. It’s flashy for sure, colors I like but the shape of the plastics are off somehow. Back fender doesn’t look long enough, side number plate not big enough. 🤷🏼♂️
Why did everybody go to a high handlebar freestyle set up, starting in the mid 90's when freestyle got big? For the same reason why most riders corning stinks today? Lower the bike, lower the bats to the late 80's when we were smarter,---and enjoy the ride so much more while crashing less. Talking form experience with both,----kids.
Who designs the plastic for modern dirt bikes today? Students from the "Batman School of Art"? Please get that abstract art of my functional dirt bike. Nope? I did it myself.
get someone from Beta on camera to explain how they expect people to fit a three digit number on those side plates
LOL
Look the same size as a gas gas. Husky.. or KTM. Betta not hate on beta .. electric bikes in the line up coming soon
There is more room on the silencer. lol
Over in Europe its not required that you put your numbers on the side plates

Thak you for saying Beta, and not Beetah like so many do 😅
Hope Kris gets time to try some adjustments and setup. Raising the forks, bars and grips, pegs, check engine mount bolts, tires, fork oil etc.
Most people are raising the forks a bit on these to help the cornering

@Mac_Simiser Around the racing/riding world. Have 2 buddy's that are really unhappy.
There all the same now, its the rider.
It was always the rider, more than the bike anyway.
Why are they not racing outdoors?
think both Benny and Colt are injured
Buy our bike so you can destroy your muffler on first crash and spend more money 😃

You mean you buy a race bike based on the graphics? You've a lot to learn.

TBH now that almost everyone gets decal kits that cover all plastics, how much does the stock color really matter?
