Beta Riders Club Discussion Forum

Just curious how many Beta FI owner's are out there and how many miles you've got?

I picked my '17 Beta 390rrs up in mid June and just passed the 30hr. mark. We had fire season with woods shut down from July-Sept so really put a hamper on the riding season.

All but about 25 miles are on dirt. Only I short stint on pavement so far.

2,000 miles and 200 hours on my 2017 500 RR-S.

Wow! You've been riding! Nice job, I'm impressed!

What type of riding? Woods, trails, dual sport?

What's your oil change schedule?

Put 200 hrs on my 2016 350rr all single track offroad stuff. Only 8hrs on my 2018 350rr.

With your '16, did you keep it or sell it? Just curious if you tore into the top end?

Any issues along the 200hrs?

What maintenance schedule did you do?

Just trying to make sure I keep on top of mine to ensure she has a long life!

So far, no issues and performing awesome!

Up here in the Great White North, though it's not white yet, I managed to put 4079 kilometers in 121 hours on my 2017 390. Both trail and ds stuff. Twenty five days with Gaspe' Woods Runners helped.

Wow! Excellent! That's a good bunch of riding!

I'm a piker! Guess I better get out there and get some more riding in!

Maintenance to this point?

When's everyone doing valve checks?

Anyone replace plastic oil pump gears?

4260 miles on my 2016 430.
Had no problem and only checked the valves once.
Been run on 10/60 100% ester oil.

No sold it. Did a top end at 150hrs it was fine both the piston and rings were in spec. Have some pics on TT. Oil change ever second ride, oil filter every 2nd oil change, air filter every ride. Valves I check every 30hrs, had to adjust one inlet at 10 hrs after that no movement. The rest of the bike I just kept lubed no other issues that's why I bought another one.

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing your maintenance schedule. Great to hear these are performing so solid.

I just hit the 30 hr. Mark so probably time for winter maintenance. Check valves, fork oil 2 biggies.
