Welcome back to another Trials bike review here at the channel!
We have been looking forward to getting out hands on the 2022 Beta Evo after the 2021 bike was the reason why we started this channel.
As you can imagine with the launch of the new Beta it was always going to be difficult for us to resit to make a review especially when our next Dream Build episode is just around the corner.
We also look at what you are going to need if you are thinking about creating a bag to take with you to the trial competitions. (Or even just to get you through the day when out practicing) With another of our top tips!
Once again we would like to thank all of those that support the channel and a huge thank you to the guys at www.camiomoto.co.uk for the loan of this Beta Evo 2022 machine.
THIS IS TRIAL TUBE!

Love your videos Danny. I’m new to trial riding. After riding a good friend’s Rev3 (also a follower of your content), I just had to get a trial bike! So much fun to be had anywhere! It’s tough to get a trial bike where we live though, so it was going to be a GasGas or Beta, whichever I could get my hands on. I am now a happy owner of the 2022 Evo 300 2T. Whilst I have no trials experience to give any qualified comments on riding, I am absolutely loving the bike. Everything you say in your review(s) I can relate to. Such a plush and rider friendly bike. I love the clutch! (Ok, trying to learn trial/enduro maneuvers on my YZ250X, with cable clutch, there’s a huge difference moving to this). Regarding the motor (and other aspects of the bike) being the same “old” trusty for a long time, it immediately made me think of my YZ. That is essentially the same bike since 2016, or thereabouts, yet the MX mags still review it against new model bikes. That is testimony to how good the bike is, and has been for a long time. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. This Beta seems to have a similar legacy.

Great review as always, but on one point we must agree to disagree. While some other brands change their bikes every year or even every month, it gets hared to keep track of the flavor of the month. The last version, in a very short time, becomes...obsolete as the newest version kills off last years or last months version. Before you know it, replacement parts for a two or three year old bike get hard to come by. Beta on the other hand, just keeps refining a great looking, proven platform and engine and in doing so, almost every part from that 2022 standard model will fit my 2015 standard model, meaning that replacement parts will be available for years to come. That's a real important consideration for many of us club riders who keep a bike, for say two, five or even ten years simply because not all of us can afford new bikes every year, so we appreciate one that can go the distance. I do agree with the rear fender (mud guard) bit as they are (still) too brittle. You seem to like the pointing up in the air thing, but can you give me one good reason why that thing should stick up into the stratosphere like it does? Like many of the makes do? There is no reason for it. Doesn't keep the mud off you, actually sort of looks dumb, like it's had too much viagra, plus the thing gets all scraped up from trying to hoist the boot over the stinking thing fifty or sixty time in a day, like I did today at our Trials event. Gets to be even more of a concern...after you get a few decades of riding under your belt. Give it another forty years or so and you'll know what I mean. Thanks for the reviews you do. I really enjoy them.

Now that’s a comment! A fair well thought through point that I agree with. I would love Beta to move from an 11year update cycle to maybe a five year one? I guess I just like the look of the pointy mudguards and so understand what you mean when it comes to getting on the bike though. Thank you so much for this comment and I hope Beta start to take note of the passion their audience have!

Danny, ref 5:30 in the video, I think my throttle cable got caught today. I have a standard 2022 300 2T with the standard bar pads. I gave her a wash after a ride this morning, then started her up to help dry her off and to lube the chain. She went straight to full rpm and stayed there. Strangely my kill switch wouldn’t kill it, or I wasn’t patient enough but it felt like I pressed it for long enough but nothing was happening, so I ended up yanking the spark plug lead off. Gave me a nice zzzz ⚡️ in the process! I couldn’t find anything wrong visually. The throttle returned normally throughout the steering range. At first I thought there was an electrical problem, from water, however I do not use high pressure. Maximum is finger on the hosepipe and I’m careful not to aim it at the electrics. I did wash, with a cloth, around the bars and kill switch, but wouldn’t a short inside that cause it to die? Anyway, I gingerly tried it again and it started and stopped normally. I took it for a short test ride and all seems ok. Weird! I recalled your mention of this and found it again here. What to do? Maybe I should remove that little bar pad altogether because if that mental rev up happens while I’m on the bike… 🤕

The engine is still mainly the Beta Techno from 1994. I have had a few Beta trials bikes but GasGas 300 Racing was on another level for me. The Beta flooding issues with the early 2000`s models that ruined many a ride like Jackwood drove me away from them as i could never get them to run well. I like the 1987 TR34 scheme.

I rode my beta evo 2015 250 every Sunday for 3 and a half years before requiring a carby clean, just regular oil and filters changes. Super reliable. In the meantime I’ve seen gasgas being rebuilt, shercos bottom ends come out, scorpas clapped out, but the beta kept on chugging along.. All this to say that I bought a vertigo as next bike

Safe! Just picked up mine and lovin' it (thanks John @ Off Road Moto Blyth). I've come from a Monty after 5 years out due to injury. Compared to the Monty, way more precise steering and much smoother. Super refined feel, balanced geometry and suspension and so much grip. A bike that gives you time to think. A bike that's on your side. Love the looks, main negative for me is the cable/hose routing - bit fussy (and LH kicker!). I like that Beta just refine incrementally - if it ain't broke...

great informative video makes me want to buy one but sadly broke my knee in 2014 and that was the end of trials bike riding for me witch started in 1984 with Fantic, had a few Beta's, Zero 1990 and Synt 1993 before switching to Gas Gas. Just to say the Beta Techno came out in 1994 although Marc Colomer was using the Techno prototype during the 1993 World Championship, again great video and would love to see you make a video whilst trying some of the late 80's early 90's bikes like the Aprilia Climber and Fantic Kroo.

owned 6 going on 7 now all factory, but now on a 22' (300)Standard...I'm Clubman- Advance(sometimes :/) the factory is a great bike with all the goodies that count and a beast!...but Standard is way more manageable...but needs some Factory upgrades! I took all (top to bottom)the clutch components from factory and put to standard(big diff) put a factory rear shock(standard way too stiff no rebound---shite) changed brake rotors and added Gaffer brake pads...standard is shite! Air-box is an issue, keep your filters clean especially in Cali or dusty areas...changed pilot jet to a 50(thanks ChrisC.) runs cleaner, just play with air screw(constantly:/ but makes a diff. change air-screw and Idle-adjust screw for convenience... change gearing back 40-41 helps the 42 makes 1st gear worthless... a few things I can completely rag on(petcock, fender brace,...Beta just needs some R&D ...they have an awesome bike but others are catching and passing...know whud'um say'n!

Overall, a solid platform. However, items for improvement; the kickstand mount easily loosens and breaks off easily. Beta please, fix this!! Give us a front number plate with the headlight built in. Re-engineer the rear skid plate mounting bolts. I made the mistake of allowing these to wear out to the point where I had to cut the bolts off with a grinder - not fun. There MUST be a better way. Otherwise, this is the most reliable, easy to ride, long lasting Trials bike you can buy.

What displacement would you recommend for a trials beginner? I come from an enduro background and enjoy the technical side of riding. Currently ride a Beta RR300 2-stroke. I'm around 88kg. The purpose of getting a trials bike is purely to improve my technical skills for enduro and over time also take part in some trials competitions. Is 125 a good idea or should I better go up to 250? Unfortunately, a Beta Evo 200 isn't available where I live.

As well as lack of protection for the filter became tiresome and annoying.
