Why?
I'd suggest the gasgas just suits you better, you can tinker with suspension all you like, but if you rode all the current bikes back to back, one or two would really stand out simply because they suit your style of riding. This is why testing bikes properly is crucial. Having had 3 Beta evos & now a Vertigo the suspension & brakes on the Evo seem really poor compared to more modern bikes.

just beginning again, which trials bike?
Your Montesa dealer is talking absolute rubbish in an attempt to sell you a 4RT i'm afraid. 2 stroke trials bikes can literally go for years without needing even piston rings. My advice would be to try a few bikes to see which one suits you, then buy one of those. After all, you want a bike which you enjoy riding first & foremost.

Beta or Fantic!
Tongue in cheek response Hughie, no offence meant. You have at the moment the perfect bike to learn the sport & progress through the levels, you should concentrate on riding & improving your technique on this bike for a while in my opinion. Getting lessons from someone like Alexz is an excellent idea as this will will steer you away from any bad habits which you may be picking up (as everyone does) Bike choice, particularly trials bikes are a very personal choice, you really must try all the bikes before purchasing. Some people really love twinshocks or air cooled monos, but equally i know of more than a few who have splashed out on their "dream" bike only to find it bloody horrible to ride (for them). More time on the bike, then even more time is the priority here.

Ignoring the Beta 200โฆโฆ.????
Agree with ChrisCH, you're over thinking it. Ride the REV3 until you have improved your skills. Then start riding other bikes until you find one that you really like, and feels right, then buy one of those.

The Beta Clutch Fix
I had a 2013 evo with clutch drag that got worse the hotter it got, cleaned the glue from the plates, switched to nano-trans no different. Only got better when i installed a whole new clutch from an old Techno engine that was lying around the garage.

The Beta Clutch Fix
The oversize cylinder will make any drag worse as its providing less seperation at the clutch plates.
-
Evo Bigger Clutch cylinders
If you like your clutch then don't mess with it is my advice.
-
Evo Bigger Clutch cylinders
Lighter clutch action but less movement on the clutch. If you have any drag on your clutch then this will make it worse.

Thumb Throttle on a trials bike
Good effort for making it & trying it out, but like I said before you need your thumb on the bars for grip, not operating a switch. Do post another video if you make a modified version๐

Newish Rider - Bike swap recommendations
You may think four strokes are quieter but not so. Four strokes may sound quieter but in fact the noise travels further, this certainly affected mx practice tracks when 4 stroke popularity was increasing a few years ago now.

Thumb Throttle on a trials bike
Ok then ๐

Thumb Throttle on a trials bike
You need your thumb to hold on, try riding your bike with your thumb not on the grip. I think it would be a short ride.
