What Owners Should Know About the 2025 Beta 350 RR Race Edition

• New Frame Design– This year's updated frame provides better structural rigidity and less flex for more precise feel on the trail, a hallmark trait of the Race Edition lineage.
• Optimized Cooling System– The cooling system is based around a two-radiator setup with easy-access cap placements and modern plastics for direct reach.
• Annual Coolant Change Recommended– Whether you ride trails or race, changing coolant once a year is ideal, using high-quality pre-mixed coolant for the aluminum components and modern gaskets.

Step-by-Step Guide: Changing the Coolant

1. Gather Supplies:
   • OEM or compatible coolant (pre-mixed)
   • Socket set for radiator cap and drain bolt
   • Funnel and drain pan
   • Protective gloves and rags for spills
2. Prepare the Bike:
   • Ensure the motorcycle is completely cool to avoid scalding.
   • Prop the bike securely using a stand.
3. Locate and Remove Radiator Cap:
   • Find the cap, usually on the right side under the plastics. Remove with a socket or by hand.
4. Drain Old Coolant:
   • Place pan under the water pump drain bolt (typically at the bottom corner of the right side engine case).
   • Loosen the bolt carefully–allow coolant to flow fully.
   • Inspect old coolant for contamination or rust.
5. Flush System (Optional but Recommended):
   • For complete renewal, backfill with distilled water, run engine briefly, then drain again.
6. Replace Drain Bolt:
   • Torque to manufacturer spec to avoid leaks or stripping.
7. Add Fresh Coolant:
   • Slowly pour coolant using a funnel until full at the radiator neck.
   • Refit cap securely; avoid overtightening.
8. Air Bleed and Top-Off:
   • Briefly run engine with cap off, topping up as bubbles escape.
   • Recheck level after first ride; top off if needed.

Tips Specific to the 350 RR Race Edition

• The improved frame design means easier plastics removal for coolant access compared to prior models.
• Race Editions benefit from running premium coolants that meet or exceed OEM specs to protect specialized gaskets and cooling passages.
• Inspect your radiator cap seal–these wear and can compromise cooling efficiency.

Disposal & Safety

• Never pour used coolant down the drain–take to authorized recycling points.
• Coolant is toxic–wear gloves and keep away from children and pets.

Keep your 2025 Beta 350 RR Race Edition performing at its best with annual coolant changes and proactive inspection. A little maintenance goes a long way for ready-to-race reliability every time you hit the trails.
