BETA 498RR (2013-2014) Specs, Performance & Photos
Maintained by:
Segment: Enduro/Offroad
Production years: 2013, 2014
The 2014 MY Beta 498RR sports the biggest power plant in the Beta enduro family; a gritty, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, 497cc single cylinder mated to a dependable six-speed, manual transmission. Not a treat for new or inexperienced riders, the 498RR is, however, a glorious ride for the bold off-roaders.
The chassis has been reinforced at the points of greatest stress and lightened, wherever possible. Handling has thus been improved, and the rider's control over the two-wheeler is now firmer and more reassuring, even when the going gets really tough.
