2022 BETA 300RR RACE EDITION PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS 

I run tubliss with the Metzler rear tyre and love it..I find with the heavy sidewalls I can run 2-3 psi without worrying about flats or rim damage. Now this is for wet winter woods riding.

Great info on the electrical components being exposed. Probably why I've got 3 fault codes since I bought it new 3 weeks ago.

Awesome video. I have a 2021 250rr and I went right over my bike and found a couple of problems with the wiring. But for most of it was ok.

Would you be willing to do a short video on how to apply the dielectric grease to the connectors.?

hello fellow NewEnglander. I see you bought from LBI. Chuck is a great guy and very helpful. My first Beta was a 390 race edition. Great bike, but I switched to an xtrainer a year and half ago. My first 2t. I'm going to upgrade probably end of this year or early next but i can't make up my mind between the 200, 250 or 300. Lightweight is key for me, as i'm older (55) and have had a string of injuries last few years. Regarding tires/traction... I've gone tubliss front and rear. Love it. Never will go back to tubes. Steering stops - i removed the net spacer. The forks hit the radiator a little but no big deal as they have some give.

Love the videos and comments- keep them coming

Thanks for the updates, I had noticed the same electrical items on my 22 500 RRS and wasn't sure if I should load in dielectric grease. I'll do so.

Will you cover the sealing and greasing of the electrical connections in one of the upcoming videos?

Thank you for these videos. Looking into a 300 beta, KTM, gas gas and Sherco.

Hola! he visto todos tus videos y coincido en varias cosas con usted, tengo la Beta 300 racing desde finales de enero y la moto es una autentica maravilla, el motor va muy bien con la carburación del manual de Beta (al menos en mi zona, soy del centro de España, Madrid) tiene buena respuesta en la gama baja del motor, es suave, lineal y agradable, su sonido es muy contenido y además es un sonido bonito. He comprado muchos accesorios a la moto, electroventilador, muchos protectores, guiacadenas más robusto... También voy con los mousses y cambié el muelle trasero para ajustar el SAG, los neumáticos no me parecen malos aunque son un poco duros según para que terreno, por ahora aquí no ha nevado y casi no ha llovido, el terreno está seco y se comportan bien. Me gusta el michelin enduro medium pero el neumático delantero con las rocas se acaba degradando bastante rápido (se arrancan los tacos laterales). Sobre los fallos de la moto, tiene 4 horas de uso y ya me ha fugado por la zona de la varilla de la válvula de escape, no viene sellado como las ktm modernas y es un pequeño problema, abrir y sellar mejor con sellante para juntas es una buena idea, ya no fuga más. El segundo fallo tiene que ver con el cable del velocímetro, supuestamente están fallando y los reponen en garantía, mañana me llega el cable, lo probaré aunque no he probado a revisar las conexiones, no he tocado nada de la moto salvo probar los clicks de compresión y extensión en las suspensiones. Mi anterior moto es una KTM 2017 la cual estaba bien e importé una cabeza RK TEK y la moto gano mucha contundencia y "punch" desde revoluciones bajas cuando abrias el acelerador pero la Beta va realmente bien. Estoy con 13-48 y voy a probar en la próxima salida 13-49. El motor está muy bien estudiado, es un autentico motor de ENDURO al menos como entendemos el enduro aquí en Europa. Estaré atento a más videos, un saludo!

Skid plate will come off without removing pipe mount. It's got some lip that catches near the pipe mount making removal and mounting a pain. It took awhile for me to figure it on my '22 300 Race. Pay attention to where the skid plate gap and the pipe mount come together.

You should try the IRC M5B Evo rear tire. Just a superb tire for everything

Do not agree on the tyres, Metzeler re great tires, but not the standard tires that come with Beta. You should try the Extreme Supersoft on the rear and the 90/100 on the front. They are very good for extreme enduro. I use the standard Metzeler as training tire at the motocross track and is ok..ish, but they cannot compare to Michelin or Dunlops. You are right about the seat, it is too hard, I put a layer of softer foam under the seat cover and it is acceptable. Just to put things into perspective, on my former KTM bike I was sporting an ACERBIS seat, the hard compound one, and it was ok. But the Beta seat is a pain in the ass :) literally. Maybe is not the hardness itself, but the shape of the seat - I ride road bicycles and sometimes the shape of the seat is the problem, if it doesn't fit with your bones. One more issue I don't like about the bike is the exposed bolt at the bottom of the clutch cover. If you take a hit on that bolt you risk damaging not only the cover, but the whole right side of the engine - which in my opinion is a BIG issue, especially for hard enduro.

currently owning a sxf 350, previously owned a 2016 300rr. Beta has its issues but what you get for the money its better choice than ktm i think. Also you forgot to mention stupid killswitch position, and why the heck did they get rid of rear sit grips? Now you have to buy straps and they are definetly not as good as those seat grips under the seat were. I am still buying it tho 🔥

I'm so tempted to get a beta 300 RR but I'm also tempted to get a KTM tpi... Can't decide

Beta has Seat Concepts seats in stock, I had mine in 4 days.

Need some more videos lol good video

Could you possibly detail the Baja led light set up you showed that can run off Dewalt batteries? Great videos so far by the way. I don't even have an RR yet but I came across your channel while searching reviews and am jazzed up about getting one in the future. Not to be an unoriginal bastard but im probably going to almost replicate your setup you've shown so far. Cheers from Oregon.

Great info 👍

Great video!

The valve on my gas cap actually fell off and I had to fish it out of the tank.

I do have problems with mine. I have 300 rr race edition. And 250 rr it’s just no problems at all. My 300 rr is now in the shop

LoL i had the problem with the electricak wiring on my ktm really helped me with that Video i Seen it cause i ordered also a 2022 race Edition how long did you wait for the Bike greetings from Switzerland!

My gas boiled a couple times until I took the green vent valve off.

Yeah....I have a 2022 200rr and the seat foam sucks! way way too hard. Just in the process of modifying my foam, by cutting part of it out and piecing in some softer seat foam.

Hi there, thinking of getting the rr version, would the dealer do the grease on all electrical items or is this something you need to do before riding ?

Hello. Does the Beta's 2022 200 rr and 200rr race edition have the same issues as 2022 300 rr ? Thanks

If you jam silicone in your connections can the current jump between the wires through the silicone??

Try the at81ex gummy.

get a bib moose, equivalent to 6 psi , or tubliss, and go with low pressure... you'll never have any deflection with any tire !!! :-)))

Oh yes....🤣🤣 typical Italian build quality, NOT great, I had lots of stripped-out threads on the lefthand side from Brand New! Beta. I found this when I was fitting new after-market parts.... P-Tech radiator guards and Pro Carbon exhaust guard etc. Modded the P-Tech Rad guards top corners removed, so You can set the Lock Stops to get max turning as this is poor on the Beta's.
