Beta RR 2T 50 Motard: General Information
Italian manufacturer Beta is household name when it comes to supermoto and put a lot of effort in their 50cc off-road motorbike lines. The Beta RR 50 Motard is available in three versions: the classic RR 50, the RR 50 Sport and finally the top model RR 50 Track.
The big advantage of Beta bikes is their ergonomic frame, which is great for off-road use. The frame is based on the larger "RR" models with a displacement of 125cc to 480cc.
The three versions of the Beta RR 50 differ primarily in terms of suspension, which becomes more powerful and efficient with each higher up model:
- Basic: classic fork (gray), cast rims and 1-piston front caliper
- Sport: longer classic fork (black), cast rims and 2-piston front brake caliper
- Track: upside-down fork and spoke rims
These are the main easily recognizable distinguishing features, although the models also differ in other respects.
The Beta RR 50 has been in production since 2012 and received a major update in 2021. The following data refers to models built after 2021. The changes mainly concern the appearance, so there are no major technical differences.
