Main bearing failures on 2018 2019 2020 Xtrainer RR250 & 300

My 2020 300rr with approx 10hrs now appears to have a failed left side bearing....

I think I can account for a total of two bad bearing issues?

Beta sent a replacement motor due to the bearing failure on my 2020 300...

The replacement has what may be a bad bearing.

Both motors are being sent back to Beta...

Good grief

Good grief

That's one way to put it... I used a lot of "French" words...

Just had a main bearing failure on my 2018 250rr. Its a higher mileage bike with 176hrs on it. Started to get the squeal and took the bike in right away. Since this bike has higher mileage and the bearing didn't actually break beta is calling it normal wear and tear. It still seems suspect to me to have a main bearing fully fail at 176hrs but betas reply was that anything over 90hrs they are calling normal wear and that most of their main bearing failures are under 10hrs. So it seems ill be on the hook for this one.

Sorry to hear that, but clearly the bike is out of warranty and its at Beta's discretion whether they fix it or not. On the other hand, I've seen more than one instance where they cover fork tube replacement at elevated time-in-service such as this.

My 2016 250 rr had a main bearing failure. Destroyed my piston but luckily the barrel survived. I love beta but after this I don't know if I can buy another. My bike had an easy life so far but the hour meter is broken, I do think its done less than 100 hrs though!
