2010 Beta RR 525 MOTARD[edit | edit source]

The ability to go from dual sport to motard is great, but the bike needs further modifications to be completely effective, primarily larger brakes and revised suspension. It simply can’t be as good at one as it is the other without additional mods.

Overview[edit | edit source]

First solo enduro, now available in supermotard for all 3 displacements.

The Beta RR 400 450 525 4T, first it earned the trust of fans with offroad Enduro versions, now laucning a new range -  " Supermotard " RR 400, 450 and 525. Redesigned the front fork by Marzocchi 45 mm with the primary objective of improving the absorption capacity and stability. Improved comfort by reducing the pitch and therefore more safety at high speeds. The rear, however, received a new set-up in order to optimize it in line with the new front. And the new wheels, saving nearly one kilogram, also offer greater rigidity.

Moreover, unlike the Enduro model, the Supermotard is designed to take two people.
