Beta unveils 2016 EVO Factory models
By John Dickinson on 10th Feb 16
ITALIAN trials manufacturer Beta has recently unveiled its special edition 2016 EVO Factory models for riders who demand nothing but the very best.
The theme for 2016 is lightness with strength and the 300 four-stroke is included in the latest Factory line-up, joining the 125, 250 and 300 two-strokes.
Getting the weight reduction programme underway are magnesium crankcases which accounts for quite a lump of fat removal in one hit.
Next in the one-upmanship stakes comes a titanium front exhaust, again accounting for a slice of flab against the steel standard pipe.
And the icing on the cake is an all new titanium rear silencer which not only saves weight but there's a claimed performance gain as well. It's win, win.
The suspension gets an upgrade as well with white forks that feature Factory caps with built-in multi adjusters while the rear unit is treated to a new white spring.
General specs include aluminium triple clamps machined from alloy billet, Braktec master cylinders, Racing discs and Michelin X-Lite tyres while a red finished cylinder head and silicon coolant hoses add bling.
The crankcases are finished in black while items like wheel rims and many minor parts are anodised for a classy look.
Special edition factory models often offer good value for money when you consider the spec against the extra cost and for that reason they are popular buys.
Don't expect the Beta EVO Factory models to hang around dealers for too long...
