  • Why would you BUY a Beta Motorcycle?
    My name is Luke and I travel the country riding my motorcycle in some of the best places New Zealand has to offer.
    So I have done something different this time let me know if you guys want more of this style.
    With the Beta 200 RR motorcycle, you'll enjoy the ultimate in both power and performance. Engineered with a liquid cooled, 2-stroke engine with electric start, the Beta 200 RR motorcycle is designed for riders who are serious about performance. The 200rr is a legend. But it's not about nostalgia, or racing, or being one of the fastest bikes in the world. It's about being an icon. Attainable only by the few. Built to change history.
    My Beta 200RR has now done 10 hours and I haven't even raced it :( I am absolutely loving this bike if you after one here is a couple of my points on it.
    You can find me at most events in the north island.
    If you want to find out more about these events jump down to the link below.
    you can find me on social media below for more New Zealand motocross!

    I bought a Beta RR 200 2020 from WP this year. I absolutely love the bike - I've never had so much fun on a dirtbike before. It's light, nimble, forgiving, powerful, great on the technical and boosting on the flats. I had a mental picture of how I wanted to feel on a bike, and the Beta ticked every box.
