    The Beta 125 RR two-stroke and 200 RR two-strokes are completely different in power character, but they're both very fun to ride. In this video, we put both bikes head-to-head comparing how they work on the track and trail. For all of Beta’s off-road bikes, their slogan is “Rideability,” and they strive to build bikes that appeal to the common rider. With headlights, taillights, oversized tanks, 18-inch rear wheels and wide-ratio 6-speed transmissions, the Beta 125 and 200 are both made for enduro-style riding in the mountains and woods.

    9k for a 125 is crazy. I’m getting old!

    The premise of the 200 not being a race bike is somewhat misleading - it is an enduro/hares scrambles competition bike, and one heck of a trail bike!

    • @johnman7251

      Impossibly trashed rough trails that aren’t too hilly is where the 200 shines in competition.

    Beta needs to make an RX 125. Keep the carb and put e start on it. Something different than both the YZ and the Austrian bikes.

    125s are a lot of fun, I'm just not a fan of how much more maintenance they require when compared to the bigger bores, and the low TQ can really hurt in the technical stuff. That 200 is a great choice for the woods here up north.

    I love the Austrian bikes, but there’s just a different personality for Betas. I also wish more brands made a 200. It really is the best of both worlds for a weekend warrior.

    • @bbarker5766
      @bbarker5766 Před 5 měsíci

      These are not desert bikes. From what I've seen in other tests of these bikes is that they are stable but will twitch some but its not a death whooble. I switched from Kawasaki to Suzuki for 2001 and the RM is known for handling and not as good with stability and it got twitchy a few times without explanation but the other 96% was caused by something I did as a rider. The b8ggest thing was getting my suspension setup properly for me and how I ride then it never happened again.

      An excellent pipe (and silencer) for the 200 is made by Scalvini, an italian brand aswell. My dad got them for his 200 and the "over rev limit" is no more a problem. Sorry for my english but it isn't my mother tongue.

    I do not agree with their verdict about the 200. It most definitely a race bike!! I know several people that race and absolutely haul ass on them. If you put the 125 against the 200 in the kind of terrain they were designed for, you see that 200 shine far over that 125.
