I would encourage you to go to a trials event in your area and ask to ride a couple different brands. I rode them for 10+ years and a couple brands never felt right to me, Beta being one of them even though it is one of the most preferred (at that time anyhow). The GG and Fantic always felt best to me.
2nd bit of advice would be to really check over a used one. Expert and Champion riders really use their bikes hard in different ways than enduro riders do. Good luck and have fun. I wish I still had one.
