New 2024 Beta Explorer E-Moto Model Specs and Price
Cycle News Staff | December 11, 2023
The all-new Beta Explorer Hunter Edition is a 100% electric E-Moto bike designed to appeal to adult riders of all ages and experience levels, says Beta. It is designed for “fun off-road adventure and is ideal for sportsmen. Roughly 30% smaller than a normal off-road motorcycle, the Explorer is designed to be less intimidating, making it great fun for trail riding, camping, hunting, or just working around the ranch.”
The Explorer has three power modes, including casual, medium, and for a quick 10-second burst, “Rocket” mode. Casual mode is the standard mode and has the longest range of 50-100 miles. The medium setting offers roughly twice the speed and torque with a range between 30-60 miles. There is also an added reverse gear for backing up out of tight trails or roads.
The Explorer has no pedals but rather folding footpegs like a modern motorcycle. Riders have six different positions to choose from. Hydraulic front and rear disc brakes are controlled by levers on the adjustable handlebar. Other features include a 74-volt battery that can be fully charged in about two hours. The battery can also be charged out of the bike as well so riders can charge one battery while riding with a fresh one. The batteries can be swapped out in about three minutes.
Fully adjustable front and rear suspension provides “a gentle ride perfect for trails and fire roads.” There is also a storage space under the seat large enough to carry a water canteen, a small dome tent, or a nice lunch for a picnic. The included rear cargo rack allows for carrying even more gear.
Availability is January 2024, with a MSRP of $5290.CN
