I'm buying a Beta 300RR

[Hawkeye]

After 10 plus years riding Gas Gas, I'm buying a new 2013 Beta 300 RR two stroke. I'm excited to make a change and have a new unique bike that isn't an orange. Still keeping my 2001 and 2002 Gasser 300 for now. I like to have a stable of different steeds. Not sure if anyone cares, but it is a big deal to me.

Just read the tbm review (UK mag). And had a good look at one at a show.
Sound like a good bike.

Here is a link to a DR preliminary test on the 250, 300 smokers, not really much info. Full test in near future.

The Beta 2 stroke is on my short list of bikes to buy this year. Would love to hear some real people reviews.

Had two Beta 4t's and a Rev 3. Excellent support from the distributor

+1 on a real person review. I've been very curious about this bike since the first pics came out. If nothing else they're gorgeous! Did you purchase it through the BYOB?

Is the new Sachs fork a twin chamber? I'm so spoiled I couldn't go back to open chamber forks again.

OC, but Marzocchi 48 cc said to be available in BYOB.

The only CC option I see on the BYOB suspension page is the Ohlins TTX inserts. It would be nice if they offered a more cost effective alternative like the Marzocchi 48 CC.

Still... that bike is beautiful and I think the BYOB program would be hard to pass on if I were in the financial position to do so.

I went though the BYOB part by part and came up with a "you'll be sleeping in the jeep" answer.. I dont think at this time I could swing the new BYOB.. but I really like the 450 and 520 as DS mounts.. saw the ones at the hammer run back in november. Had to say they looked great! really nice and ergonomics were great for me.. I'm barely 5'7"..I sat on the 450? and another one I cant remember the other size/year that was there..
