Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2010 Beta Ark AC RR, a spirited scooter that stands out in the crowded realm of urban mobility. Designed with the adventurous rider in mind, this compact two-stroke machine strikes a perfect balance between performance, practicality, and style. It’s particularly appealing to those looking for a lightweight option that doesn’t compromise on excitement. With its striking red and white color scheme, the Ark AC RR is not only built for functionality but also designed to turn heads on city streets. At the heart of the Beta Ark AC RR lies a robust 49cc single-cylinder engine that delivers a peppy performance, making it ideal for zipping through traffic and navigating tight corners. The air-cooled, two-stroke engine operates at a compression ratio of 12.0:1, providing an exhilarating acceleration that makes city commuting a thrill. With a dry automatic centrifugal clutch and an automatic gearbox, riding the Ark AC RR is a breeze, allowing riders to focus on the road ahead rather than shifting gears.

What sets the 2010 Beta Ark AC RR apart are its thoughtful features and technology designed for the modern rider. The tubular steel frame not only enhances durability but also contributes to the scooter’s sleek silhouette. Its dual-disc braking system — 190 mm single discs at both the front and rear — offers reliable stopping power, instilling confidence in riders navigating through busy urban environments. The electric starter adds convenience, ensuring a hassle-free ignition, while the adjustable spring preload on the rear suspension allows users to fine-tune their riding experience based on personal preference. With a fuel capacity of 7.5 liters, the Ark AC RR promises an efficient range for daily commutes. **
