Beta RR 50 Enduro: General information
Italian manufacturer Beta has put a lot of effort in their 50cc off-road bike line, the Beta RR 50 Enduro is available in three versions: the "classic" RR 50, the RR 50 Sport and finally the RR 50 Racing as the top-of-the-line model.
The great advantage of Beta Enduro motorcycles is their ergonomic frame, which is great for off-road riding. The frame is based on the larger "RR" models with 125 to 480 displacement.
The three versions of the Beta RR 50 differ primarily in terms of their suspension, which becomes more efficient with each higher up model:
- Basic: classic fork and shock absorber without lowering link
- Sport: longer classic fork and shock absorber with lowering link
- Racing: adjustable upside-down fork and adjustable gas charged shock absorber with lowering link
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.
