Overview

Introducing the 2007 Beta REV 3 - 250, a standout contender in the world of trial motorcycles, where precision meets performance. Known for its lightweight design and agile handling, the REV 3 - 250 has carved a niche for itself among enthusiasts and competitors alike. Beta, an esteemed name in the off-road arena, has engineered this model to embody the spirit of trial riding—demanding both skill and finesse. With its robust construction and innovative features, the REV 3 - 250 has become a trusted companion for riders tackling the toughest obstacles and terrains. At the heart of the REV 3 - 250 is its dynamic 249.60 ccm single-cylinder, two-stroke engine, which strikes an impressive balance between power and control. With a compression ratio of 11.4:1 and a bore and stroke of 72.5 x 60.5 mm, this engine delivers exhilarating responsiveness, allowing riders to navigate challenging courses with ease. The Mikuni VM26/208 carburettor ensures optimal fuel delivery, while the electronic AET ignition system provides reliable starting and consistent performance. Complemented by a 6-speed gearbox, riders can effortlessly tap into the engine's power band, making the REV 3 - 250 a joy to ride across various terrains, whether crawling over rocks or soaring over logs. One of the standout features of the REV 3 - 250 is its meticulously crafted chassis, constructed from double wave aluminium beams that provide exceptional rigidity without adding unnecessary weight. The front suspension features a hydraulic fork with a 38 mm shaft, while the rear boasts a monoshock system, both designed to absorb shocks and maintain stability during intense maneuvers. The braking system, equipped with a 185 mm front disc and a 165 mm rear disc, ensures precise stopping power, giving riders the confidence to tackle steep descents and tricky sections. Additionally, the bike's ground clearance of 310 mm allows it to glide over obstacles, while the low seat height of 660 mm ensures a comfortable fit for riders of various sizes. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Agile: Weighing in at just 72 kg (158.7 lbs), the REV 3 - 250 offers remarkable maneuverability, making it ideal for trial riding.
  • Powerful Engine Performance: The robust two-stroke engine delivers quick acceleration and responsiveness, perfect for navigating technical challenges.
  • High-Quality Suspension: The advanced suspension setup provides excellent shock absorption and stability, enhancing rider confidence on varied terrains.

Cons
