With accolades of Yamaha dealer of the year and number 1 for customer care i'm sure you will agree your in safe hands. We are both excited about the future and we welcome you to our new location where you will see the new look Acklams alongside our Van centre.
We will also have our top mechanic Neil Barlow with us , Neil has now been with us for over 20 years and is without doubt at the top of his game . City and guilds and Yamaha trained Neil can cover all types of Trials/Enduro/Road bikes as many of you already know .
We would like to personally thank you for all your continued support

Alex Salvini, to delight the Tuscan Manufacturer accomplished a record for Italy by winning the Italian Enduro Championship. Besides benefiting from the new features already present on the standard models, the new Beta "Racing" versions feature innovations in suspension as well as providing special features for the racer. New for the 2017 Race line-up is the introduction of the 390 4T to the family. 2017 RR Racing models will be available in the following engine sizes: 250 – 300 2T and 350 – 390 – 430 – 480 4T. All the bikes comply with European legislation Euro4. Chassis The Beta engineers worked hard to further improve the front suspension feel of the bike. After the excellent results obtained also on the race tracks by Beta official team, the close cartridge Sachs fork (ø 48 mm) further evolves by increasing both wheelbase and stroke while improving some internal parts to improve reliability and performance. Just like the 2017 series fork, the closed cartridge version adopts the new Liqui Moly oil which has proven to reduce friction while offering a more consistent performance during the longer events. Premix All 2T "Racing" versions continue to run Premix unlike the standard RR 2T models which come equipped with an oil injection system. Beta engineers have decided to remove this feature to minimise weight however, with carburettor and electric wiring already designed for, a separate mixing system can be easily implemented* on Racing models thanks to a kit that can be bought from our accessories catalogue. Special components Added features to all Race Editions that make them stand out from a standard model include: ◾Quick release front axle handle: it speeds up tyre repairs and is very useful during a race as it saves precious seconds. ◾Flag style hand guards, with a modern design, sturdy structure and "In-Mould" graphics; ideal for most extreme off-road riding. ◾Black ergal footrests: lightweight and sturdy, with a wider contact surface and steel pins to ensure maximum grip in all conditions as well as durability over time. ◾Rear sprocket with an anodised aluminium core and stainless steel teeth: combines a light weight sprocket with the durability of a steel sprocket. ◾Red ergal chain tensioner blocks. ◾Black Excel rims. ◾Racing seat with a pocket for score cards. ◾Black anodised shift lever and rear brake pedal. ◾Transmission oil filler cap, engine oil cap (4t) and oil filter cap (4t) made of red anodised aluminium with a pure Factory look. ◾Red rim stickers and Racing graphics.

The new 2017 Beta RR Italian Stallion has just been revealed. The perfect balance between babe magnet and the ultimate crotch rocket. When you pull up to party on this sexy machine, everybody knows you mean business. First batch due in at the end of July. Don't miss out on one of these beauties Contact us on 01423 565125 or email: sales@acklamsbeta.co.uk for more info After a greatly successful 2016 season in both sales and racing, Beta returns in 2017 with their Enduro range that continues the forward progress of the brand through refinements in features and quality. The 2016 season has seen Beta achieve their firsts-ever overall victories in the World Enduro Championship in Portugal and Sweden with racer Steve Holcombe along with many other victories from Johnny Aubert and Alex Salvini, both at the World and National level. Beta continues to take the information they have learned from their race team as well as information from the everyday casual rider and combined the two to further enhance the riding experience. The 2017 RR models continue to offer an “easy to ride” philosophy while also providing the rider with a stable and distinct design along with the quality one expects from the brand. The 2017 models, available in 250 and 300 cc. for 2T and 350/390/430/480 cc. for 4T, are a direct evolution of the 2016 version and retain their most successful features. A number of features have been tweaked on all the models of the range and some of them come directly from experience at top competitive levels. The chassis, with the well-tested chrome-moly steel frame with double split cradle has the following new features: • Sachs fork: increased 5mm in length to provide longer travel. Liqui Moly oil has been installed to reduce heat build up and friction in the fork. • Sachs rear shock: new high/low speed adjustment system, now more accurate and independent from each other. This allows the rider to make more fine adjustments based on his or her riding style and needs. • Triple clamps: new design that is lighter and offers more rigidity. • Silver rims with black spokes: supplied by Excel, these new wheels are lighter and give the new bike a distinctive look. • Digital meter: new design, along with the timer, kilometre/mph indicator with more adjustment features including instant speed, average and maximum speeds as well as the ability to adjust mileage in smaller increments. Also new for 2017 is a built in battery voltage reading. • New fuel cap: has built-in breather valve • New graphics A fine development was carried out also on the engines, which also thanks to the contribution of the Beta Factory Team riders – Steve Holcombe and Johnny Aubert for 2T and Alex Salvini for 4T – have led to the introduction of important new features. For the 250 and 300 2T, introduced in 2016, the automatic oil injection system continues: as well as ensuring a perfect fuel-oil mix under any condition, it eliminates the trouble of having to premix the oil and fuel and eliminating the need to carry oil with you in the event of a fuel top up. Both propulsion systems are in line with the Euro4 European regulation – for units made in the second half of the year – and have a control unit designed for a CAN connection to interact with generic diagnosis instruments. Electronic Fuel Injection continues on all 4T models including 350, 390, 430 and 480. Thanks to its great reliability, easy control and outstanding throttle response, it has generated great positive feedback from end users. The system continues to be refined by the Beta team of engineers along with Synerject. The 42mm throttle body provides the optimum performance without the “hard hit” most current EFI off road motorcycles suffer from. The following are introduced on all displacements, already in line with the Euro4 European regulation: • camshafts – the new lift profiles radically change the core of 4T engines, making them even easier to ride, whilst retaining their top performance. • valve springs – which, combined with the camshafts, are used to considerably improve performance of the engine at the bottom end of the power delivery and also reducing the engine braking. Once again, the control unit is designed for a CAN connection to interact with generic diagnosis instruments. Prices to be confirmed next week. Bikes due as follows. RR 250 2T - July 27th. RR 300 2T - July 20th. RR 4T - August 3rd. Racing bikes due towards the end of the year
