2bentspokes Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hi Folks, I am lucky enough to have 9 acre wood and river area to mess about in but to be social I don't want to upset the neighbours so am looking for a "quiet" choice of bike. 2stroke or 4? 125 or 250? Any suggestions? I am new to this cracking sport though I have done a bit of off roading centuries ago! and have been on and off road bikes for 30 years or so.Thanks.

klonheadd Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Beta 4t 300 with original exhaust is nearly unnoticeable when riding. So quiet - I have no problems practising in my backyard and neighbours are 20m away. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 It is true the standard 4T Beta is very quiet., but the two stroke 200 Beta is the best all around bike to someone new to this sport. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spen Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 I've got a Beta 4T, the fan is noisier than the engine..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Trouble is it is quite large compared to the two stroke. I am reminded how large every time I load my sons bike into my van. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lineaway Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 He usually does, but sometimes I don`t wait for him. Being he is 6`5`` the bike suits him well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
