2022 Beta XTrainer 300 First Look
Cycle News Staff | June 3, 2021
The Beta XTrainer 300 is designed to welcome younger or less experienced riders with a performance-oriented entry-level bike. It features a lower seat height of 35.8” and dry weight of 216lbs. The electric start 300cc two-stroke motor is tuned for rideability and it includes an oil injection system so you don’t need to pre-mix the fuel.
The XTrainer offers many other features including a complete lighting package, plastic skid plate, electric start, strong wheels, and the same brake package found on the larger RR model range. The suspension package is designed to provide a supple ride at slower speeds while still providing the performance needed when the pace ramps up. New updates for the 2022 model include:
- Engine: the engine has been completely revised, with an all-new larger bore cylinder, a new piston and a new power valve
- Crankshaft: new shorter stroke.
- Cylinder head: the head is also completely new, and has been redesigned to complement the other new components to perfection.
- Clutch with diaphragm springs: this solution makes the clutch action lighter, more progressive and more controllable, significantly reducing rider fatigue. Both engagement and disengagement have been improved, while the clutch is now capable of transmitting even more torque. To allow for a totally custom set up, three different spring preload settings are available, adjustable with a simple mechanical procedure.
- The new engine, combined with a dedicated new engine control unit map, boasts a smoother and more progressive response to throttle input and more linear power delivery. The bike as a whole is also easier to handle, providing a smoother riding approach.
Other added features include:
- New starter motor: this extremely reliable unit has the power needed to restart the engine even in the trickiest situations
- Updated electrical system: the improved layout of the bike’s electrical system improves reliability and makes components quicker to remove and replace.
- New graphics and colors for 2022.
