3 years ago | Words: Andy Wigan | Photos: Beta Motorcycles Australia

Beta Motorcycles Australia – in conjunction with Ballard’s, Xtread and MXstore – has announced the formation of an all-new Beta Ballard’s Xtread Off-Road Race Team for 2024. Here’s an excerpt from Beta Oz’s PR…

Team rider, Ben Kearns, from NSW will be racing aboard a Beta RR390 Racing, competing in the 2024 Australian Off-Road Championship (AORC) as well as the major national and regional off-road racing events around Australia.

Ben Kearns has had some impressive results over recent years, after representing Australia in the ISDE in 2017, and more recently taking Outright test win alongside his notable P4 in the E3 class (and 19th Outright) in the 2023 Australian 4-Day Enduro (A4DE).

Patrick Lowry (Managing Director, Beta Motorcycles Australia): “We’re excited to support this new team with Ballard’s and MXstore. Geoff Ballard approached us to see if we’d be happy to let Ben test some bikes, and the RR390 Racing came out on top! Ben was impressed with the performance and is feeling more and more comfortable on the bike. We wish the team all the best.”

Beta Motorcycles Australia will be sharing details on their 2024 race team early in 2024.
