At the heart of the 2008 Beta REV-3 250 trial motorcycle, Beta features a 249.6 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 72.5 x 60.5 mm (2.9 x 2.4 inches) with a 11.4:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the REV-3 250 measures 72 kg (159 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 660 mm (26 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,310 mm (51.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 3-liter (0.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
