Always fancied a scorpa, beta is soft powered and 200, will I see a big difference, the two have been likened in terms of power delivery, if it's similar then the scorpa it is.

The Beta feels soft because it lacks a few cc compared to a 250. The Scorpa feels soft because the power builds slowly, more like the 250 beta with a flywheel weight.

Though both 200 Beta and Yam engined Scorpa are soft they are different, you need t tryo the Scorpa before deciding. I did not like the very slow power build up of the Rotax engined Armstrongs and Aprillas, The Yam engined Scorpa is quicker than those and although it finds grip easily on slippery rocks the power delivery may not be to your liking.
