Just joined the forum, wondered where oddballs like my Beta Alp 4 fit in - its suzuki engined, so does it belong in the suzuki thread?

I'm on the Safe House List
03 TA Blue, Givi bars, centre stand, Givi Pannier racks, heated grips, MRA Vario - smooth!
Also 4x4 with a towbar - and a trailer!

Its got to be a great place to startWhat do you rekon to your Alp, read a coupleof small reports on them and they sound a great fun bike with minimum fuss. Get somepics up aswell

in central london it's brilliant - ultra narrow, a bit like a 125, but with plenty of low-geared torque to nip to the front.
and light, thanks g*d - parking now in the ****ty and/or & westmonster is hell - the days of hiding in alleys or free on any meter etc have gone, if I arrive at liverpool st nr 8a, it can take 20 mins to find a "space"
It feels fast up to c 60, but on the motorway, it's pants! But so agile & nippy I can't help grinning whenever I use it.
I've ridden my mates and really like it. I don't know what Beta did to the DR engine but it's much nicer then my DR350.
See below for a very short vid and pic of the bike in question.

3 Africa Twins/280,000 miles. If it's happened to one of mine, it's gonna happen to one of yours.....eventually.
1 Varadero/17,000 miles ridden (of 40,000 miles on the bike), it's all still new to me!
