Got a few calls from Beta dealers all of a sudden. Spoke to a real nice guy just now from here... http://www.airheadmotorcycles.com/ seems like a really nice guy and asking for some parts for Betas. It begins. K
So are you going to get one of their demo bikes for "product development"? . I really like the betas. I just wish they had a smaller bore like a 250 four stroke and fuel injection. So did someone refer you? Dealer already knew you? What's the story? Either way its awesome and you deserve an expansion.
Too funny this timing of yours! I just finished my BYOB order for a new 520RS, sadly the 449 is getting sold or sitting for awhile until the current dealer blowout sales are done.
May I ask why? My guess is transmission ratios? I really like mt 511 but wish the trans was wider. Taller 6th is all I need. Good luck with the Beta, they seem nice. Suspension seems soft for the faster stuff but nice for woods stuff. If you have a selection on springs you might ask around to those in the know and get the right ones for you.
BYOB is build you own bike, you can add almost anything you want at build, springs and shocks included, for a substantial savings. I love the 449, fuel range sucks is my biggest issue, the transmission is fine in the dirt, horrid on the blacktop but who rides there purposely anyhow? I'm also very leery of all the change in ownership during the last few years (entirely my issue, to me it seems no one is standing behind the company.) Plus, I get a kick-start backup! lol
Well congrats on the new bike! Make sure to post some pics. I've been to the website before and built a really expensive supermoto lol
