2026 Beta 350 RS Dirt Bike Torque Specs
Shop parts for a 2026 Beta 350 RS Dirt Bike.
The 2026 Beta 350 RS enters its third year on the current-generation platform, making the road-sport four-stroke a fully validated pavement machine. The 349cc liquid-cooled DOHC four-valve single with electronic fuel injection and six-speed gearbox delivers the broad powerband through 17-inch wheels and road tires. Chrome-moly steel frame with road-tuned KYB fork and Sachs shock, DOT-compliant street equipment, and modern ergonomics provide the complete package. Two full seasons of road use confirm the chassis handles pavement-specific loading reliably. The 2026 350 RS is the most confident version of the modern road-sport platform.

Dry vs. Wet Torque
Oil drain plug: always wet; reduce 15–20% with sealant. All other values assume dry threads.
Validated Road-Sport Platform
Two seasons confirm the current chassis handles road loading reliably. Road-sport riders accumulate miles quickly, so oil service frequency is high and drain plug thread management is essential. The 2026 model rewards consistent torque discipline with the same reliability the platform has demonstrated since its introduction. Standard verification of brake, axle, and chassis hardware at regular mileage intervals keeps the validated 350 RS performing at its proven best.
Thread Locker Application
Medium-strength (blue) thread locker for the 2026 Beta 350 RS:

Torque Wrench Selection
A 3/8-inch drive click-type for 20–100 Nm and a 1/4-inch drive for 10–12 Nm hardware. Two drive sizes for the validated 350cc road-sport platform.
