This bike is the most underrated bike out there.

try one before you but a 2st.

The Beta 2stroke is awesome, don't judge 2strokes by a '12 GG. That was the worst motorcycle I have ever owned. Well, maybe tied with my Cannondale, but I don't judge 4strokes by that bike either. Good luck and glad your happy with it.

Welcome . Your screen name looks familiar. I sense a pattern here on this forum.

Ok...I am officially a convert now.. 46 mile trail ride convinced me that I made correct choice. What' an awesome bike!! Light, quick turning, low seat height, smooth but powerful motor, I have no complains about stock suspension.

Everything is better than my old husky except deep sand handling and ridiculous seat!

Welcome. I have 50 hours on mine and not an issue yet. Just a few loose bolts here and there like most new bikes.

Quality is in a different league than a GG. I'll be over 100 hrs. soon, harescrambles racing and trail riding. Still starts one kick and runs like new. We still struggle to keep my buddy's GG in one piece to finish this years series.

My 2013 250RR is nudging 100 hours and it's tight as a drum. Bolted on a 2.5gal tank to bring it fully up to 2015 spec. I love that bike ...

170 hours on mine. 200 was the number I was going for this year before pulling the top end but with my recent injury, that's not going to happen. I will give it a refresh this winter. I'm not easy on my bikes but fluids are changed more than they need to and anything mechanical that needs to be done gets done. Bike has been reliable as a rock.

Maybe Jamie can finish up the hours for you - she's just about as fast anyway :D Heal up soon!
