June 10, 200422 yr Did I see correctly , A Beta motorcycle with a DRZ 400 Motor? Is this a Beta or a Suzuki motorcycle. Is it street legal or just for trail/trials? Any imput on this?
June 10, 200422 yr Called a Beta Alp 400. Definately a Beta and not a Suzuki or is a Scorpa a Yamaha !!! Trail bike and road legal
June 11, 200422 yr It's the old Suzuki DR350 engine, not the DR-Z (the "400" name is a bit misleading). It's a trials/trail hybrid along the lines of the GasGas Pampera (there's a 2-stroke 200cc version as well). Popular with vertically-challenged trail riders and often used for long-distance trials!

June 11, 200422 yr Nice looking bike. Wonder if its small enough for me though (exceedingly vertically challenged.)
June 11, 200422 yr Good looking bike. Interesting that it has knobbies instead of trials tires, considering the low front fender and trials influence otherwise. BTW, the 200cc version of the Alp is also a 4-stroke Suzuki engine, and not 2-stroke as stated earlier. If you go back a few model years, the Alp did have a 2-stroke 250cc Beta motor.
