The Beta two-stroke is a tight lipped thing. I was told by American Beta, Beta Italy has no plan to build a two-stroke, full size motor, enduro. I sell Beta's and I've asked about it before...

Beta I would think would produce their motor in house for this project??? Beta has vast knowledge of producing two-strokes, they build/built motors for KTM 50, 65, 85, and 105, 50, and 65 until 2009, 85 and 105 still I believe?... I had people ask me what the large "B" logo cast into parts was for years at different shops I worked. I learned from American Beta!..

Beta makes a full size, liquid cooled, 6 speed, 50cc two-stroke in Europe as a homlogation special commuter/weekend racer that looks cool. They do not bring it into the US, I asked if we could get 50 or so orders we could do it! Also they make a full range of trials two-strokes. As well as two-stroke scooters. Their production is about 20,000 bikes, they produce a few thousand engines for other companies as well.
