Double the fun
Is it possible to improve the frame, suspension and performance of a World Championship-
winning motorcycle? It's not easy when the bikes in question are those of Steve Holcombe or Brad
Freeman, but Betamotor's technicians like a challenge, and so two major innovations have been
added to the Racing 2024 models, doubling the rideability, power and fun! Beta's flagship racing
bike, the RR Racing 300 two-stroke, indeed features a new engine with dual spark plugs, with most
of the other RR Racing range receiving a new frame (excluding the 125 and 200). But that's not all,
because the 125 two-stroke is also receiving a completely redesigned engine. Rounding off the
package are new graphics and high-level, race-ready components.
The RR Racing bikes represent the race-ready versions of the Enduro RR models and therefore differ
from them with a series of modifications to the engine, suspension, frame and equipment, making
them ideal for giving their best performance on the track. For Model Year 2024, the new features
and innovations are undoubtedly high impact and consistent with the building philosophy of these
models, offering everyone the ability to make the most of the available performance with minimal
effort, so they can always give their best. Let's therefore take a look at all the new features and
characteristics which set the models apart.
Engine - RR Racing 2Str 300
The engine of the multiple world championship-winning model of Brad Freeman is known in the
offroad landscape for its torque and linear power delivery. Able to offer excellent progressive power
throughout the range while providing top-end performance when needed. With the introduction of
the new cylinder head with dual spark plug, these characteristics are further improved: the delivery
is even more linear, and although the maximum power is increased, the vehicle's docility is clearly
improved. This result has been achieved thanks to the two spark plugs, which provide numerous
benefits:
- They offer improved distribution of the fuel ignition points in the combustion chamber,
providing less fuel consumption, making the system more efficient and achieving a
significantly lower residue level thanks to the greater carburation stability at all engine
speeds. This translates into smoother delivery.
- The engine's range of use is further extended, as both greater torque and more power are
available.
- The two spark plugs are managed with a completely separate electrical system. This means
that, if one of the spark plugs should foul out, the engine will still be able to run, although
with less efficiency, allowing the race or off-road session to be comp
