Beta USA has announced an additional 2025 model to its lineup: the 450 RC. The 2025 450 RC is a response to customer demand, and based on the success of the 450 RX motocross model, it shares the same proven and durable platform with additional features added to make the bike a serious off-road race weapon.
The electric start, five-speed engine provides the power delivery perfect for all-around use. Designed for riders who race in the woods on the weekends and hit the moto track during the week, the 450 RC is really a do-all four-stroke model. Equipped with an 18-inch rear wheel, larger fuel tank, handguards, race model tank panels, formed plastic skid plate and an o-ring chain, it is the complete package.
