2024 EVO 300 2T

The tried and tested Evo technical package, provided by the manufacturer from Rignano sull’Arno to its riders and enthusiasts of the brand, has seen advances over time thanks to direct feedback from Factory Riders, and is returning to the market with the addition of a new functional component—the electronic key.Introducing the Evo MY2024 range with all-new graphics and a refined aesthetic that makes this new model both racing-styled and elegant. The tasteful use of red is used to enhance the grey-coloured base, which instead of being a primary element, exalts the bike’s volumes and embellishes the original aesthetic appearance of the motorcycle. The mill-finish aluminium swingarm and frame emphasise the bike’s strong links with racing, where the materials are pure and everything is designed for maximum performance.The Evo 300 2T is the leader of the class. A bike for lovers of big capacity engines with impressive torque at all engine speeds, and the perfect base for competing at the clubman or pro levels. The size of both the frame and the engine have been optimised to maximise the ability of the bike to overcome even the most challenging obstacles and the most technically difficult trials.The main new feature for the MY2024 range sees the introduction of an electronic key that plays a dual role, combining rider safety functions traditionally represented by a Kill-Switch with an innovative anti-theft function.Electronic Key: this new electronic device holds an exclusive European patent awarded to Betamotor (EP3064405B1), and provides an anti-theft function, as well as protecting the bike and its rider. The electronic key is a two-part component: one part remains fastened to the bike’s handlebars, while the other is magnetic (worn by the rider with a cord around their wrist), activating a mechanism in the event they are disconnected.The device, which was recently introduced for the first time on a Beta model with the Xtrainer MY2024, fulfils the function of a Kill-Switch for the safety of both bike and rider, shutting off the bike when the magnetic contact point connected to the rider’s wrist and the handlebar is disconnected. Unlike a normal Kill-Switch, however, the new electronic key also incorporates an anti-theft function, preventing the bike from being started when disconnected, thanks to coding which uniquely links the bike to the key, protecting against theft of the vehicle when it is left unattended.Greater protection for the bike and rider in a single solution exclusively patented by Betamotor for the first time as standard equipment.
The Evo MY2024 range also sees the following innovations:• Redesigned radiator grille: as well as optimising the air flow, it also boasts a greater protective surface in the cap and radiator body area, to prevent these components from sustaining damage from impacts with branches, stones or in the case of a fall.• Tank cover: the shape envelops the frame and allows all the cable routing to be covered, for a clean and more orderly look. The mapping switch is also located inside it which offers a choice of two different engine maps that the rider can select with a convenient button on the tank cover. This location makes the button easy to reach while offering protection against knocks and unintentional operation, while an LED indicator lets the rider immediately identify which map is currently in use.• Rear shock: the Evo shock comes complete with all the adjustments a rider needs to tailor the bike and identify the ideal setup but, with the latest evolutionary step implemented, the bike is significantly improved in terms of its progressiveness, responsiveness and damping.• Crankshaft and conrod: sees reduced interaxle spacing for more rounded power delivery and improvedvehicle dynamics.• Cylinder and head: overhauled timing and combustion chamber, providing improved torque at low rpms,while retaining engine performance at higher speeds.

• Engine maps: have been optimised to best exploit the engine’s power and docility.• Exhaust manifold: protection has been installed to avoid any overheating and to protect the manifoldfrom impacts. As well as being functional, this rounds out the bike’s overall look (also on 125 2T).
