BETA EVO MY 2023 news review

EVO 2023 BETA CYCLE PART

– Radiator grille. Completely redesigned. In addition to optimising the airflow to the radiator, it has a larger protective surface area in the area of the cap and the radiator body, preventing these components from being damaged in the event of impact with branches, stones or falls.

– Tank cover. Newly designed. The shape is much more enveloping in the chassis and allows all cable passages to be covered, giving a clean and uncluttered look to the bike. This new shape includes a button to change maps. The EVO features two engine maps that can be selected from the handy button on the fuel cap. A position that is easy to access and at the same time protected from accidental shocks. In addition, thanks to the presence of an LED indicator, the selected map can be identified immediately.

– MY 23 graphics. The look and performance go hand in hand with the new EVO update. Geometric graphics and a new anodized aluminum swingarm give it a sleek, natural look that evokes racing. The chassis is painted in typical Beta red to highlight the beauty of the hydroformed aluminum frame, a hallmark of the EVO. The filter box is black again, but its operation does not change, as does the TwinAir foam filter. The fork sleeves are now Beta’s signature red color.

– Domino Fists. The new Beta custom Domino grips ensure comfort and grip, so you never lose contact with the handlebars. The black levers highlight its sophisticated look.

– New shock absorber settings. Betamotor’s technicians have updated the set-up, based on their experience, in terms of progression, response and absorption. As far as the fork is concerned, they have revised the settings and the amount of oil on the two arms to increase the progressivity of the response on the most extreme descents. In fact, the EVO fork is said to be “asymmetrical” because the two arms have different functions and internal volumes. On the left side, the spring can be adjusted, changing the geometry, while on the right, the hydraulics can be adjusted to manage the damping and responsiveness of the front axle. By differentiating and optimising the volume of oil between the two arms, it has been possible to improve the progression and, therefore, the precision with which the bike transmits the sensations to the rider. On the single-sided fork, Beta has adjusted the set-up to increase its responsiveness in the extension phase and improve the bike’s responsiveness. Thus, the EVO increases the feeling of lightness that the rider perceives, especially when using the “bounce” to position himself between obstacles.

–Tyres. Professional riders choose Michelin Trial Light for the front and Michelin Trial X-Light Competition for the rear. And, with the MY23, all EVO owners will do the same, who will appreciate the great grip of this very light tire, which combines perfectly with the precision and handling typical of Betamotor motorcycles.
