Urban 125 Special

Beta’s new “road-bike” which has been on the market for a few
months already has a certain following with city motorcyclists
thanks to its deliberately minimal-fun look.
The Milan trade show is an ideal opportunity to present this
bike to the public, as well as the SPECIAL, a version with great
visual impact in its styling, clearly made for people who love the
personalised touch.

The URBAN grew out of a clear idea: to create a city scrambler.
It is simple to use and can be equipped over time with
accessories to personalise it according to each rider’s taste.
Riding around the city on a daily basis on a small two-wheeled
vehicle means avoiding lines at traffic lights, always finding a
parking spot and easily zipping through alleys where other
vehicles can’t fit because of their width.

To whom is the URBAN suited? There is no specific group of
users.
Its “minimal” appearance ensures that everyone, especially
novices, will have excellent control and an immediate feeling of
confidence. Those with experience can try small spins and jumps
(to be done cautiously).
The height of the seat and its weight (101 kg for the 125 and
110 kg for the 200) make this Beta perfect for women, too.
And finally, the URBAN is also appealing for that seasoned
motorcyclist who is looking for an easy-to-operate alternative
to a scooter, to park next to his/her “official” bike.

THE SPECIAL VERSION

In order to meet the needs of people who love to drive an
“elitist” vehicle, Beta has equipped the URBAN with a series of
special accessories and has modified the cycle parts and the
engine.
From an aesthetic point of view, Beta designers are offering a
white frame in contrast with the red-painted rear frame. And
the seat and handlebar grips are still two-toned, circles with
stripes.
Other special features include a new higher-performance
stainless steel exhaust system, new wheel hubs in light alloy
with diamond-edged finish, aluminium handlebars and a pair of
daisy-type brake discs (front and rear).
This description is limited to the main modifications. There are
also other important differences... that we will let you discover
yourselves.

ACESSORIES FOR THE URBAN

Let’s not forget that many accessories are already available for
the Urban:

• Side bag (cod. 20.11225.000) + kit for fastening bag to the bike
  Designed for Beta by Tucano Urbano, this bag is made of
  heavy polyester with self-repairing zippers and rainproof
  cover. It has an anti-theft cable, pleats to increase the
  capacity, leather trim and refractive inserts. Very practical
  as it can be carried by the handle or over the shoulder.
  This bag is equipped with a frame to be anchored to the
  Urban’s frame.
• Black parcel rack (cod. 20.11226.000).
• Pair of handguards (cod. 20.12804.000).
• Top case (cod. 11.15920.000) designed for the URBAN and
  complete with support plate.

  Two other accessories are coming soon: a racing licence
  holder and a front shield.

MAIN TECHNICAL INFORMATION

The two URBANs 125 -200 are equipped with 4-stroke, Euro 3
engines and have the same cycle parts: trellis frame,
suspension developed and calibrated to maximize comfort and
the driving feel, brakes that can withstand the constant,
unavoidable stress caused by congested traffic (they have
floating callipers), aluminium wheels, 19” in the front and 16”
in the rear. The seat is well padded.
Another plus offered by the URBAN is its extremely low fuel
consumption, an important feature at a time when it seems that
the price of fuel keeps going up. With the 125cc version you get
more than 28Km/l. The 200cc version uses a little more. The
tank holds 6 litres.
