Vehicle Information
BETA RS 450 Motorcycle - Dual-Sport (2008-2014)
The BETA RS 450, produced from 2008 to 2014, is a versatile dual-sport motorcycle known for its performance both on and off-road. Throughout these years, it consistently featured a liquid-cooled, single-cylinder, 4-stroke engine with a 4-valve DOHC configuration, with displacement recorded as 448cc or 449cc. The model was primarily offered in two configurations: the standard RS (Dual-Sport) for street-legal on-road and off-road riding, and the RS Super Moto (SM) version, characterized by 17-inch wheels with street tires and Supermoto-tuned suspension. A significant evolution occurred during its production run. Initially, the 2008-2010 models utilized a sourced engine (specifically a 2006-spec KTM EXC motor in 2008). However, for the 2011 model year, the RS 450 received an entirely new engine designed and manufactured in-house by Beta, along with a redesigned chassis. Subsequent years (2012-2014) brought further refinements, including engine improvements (e.g., redesigned cylinder head, increased oil volume), chassis upgrades (e.g., stronger frame, new Sachs fork), and features like a redesigned fuel tank and standard Trail Tech Voyager GPS.
