The Beta Motard 200 is a street-legal 200cc four-stroke supermoto the Italian manufacturer offered in the South American market, particularly Argentina. It sported twin 17-inch wheels, front and rear disc brakes, inverted forks, electric start, and made around 15-16 horsepower. While it was no speed demon, it was an affordable, versatile mount that could dice the urban traffic of Buenos Aires, explore the mountain paths around Salta, or serve as the perfect donor for a custom build!

Enter our new friends from Rodando Sur Moto Garage of Buenos Aires, Argentina — a group of friends who rented a space to work on their own bikes, but soon found themselves fielding requests to build bikes for customers. For this project, they were invited to participate in the 2020 Argentinian Builders Challenge (ABC), in which four teams were given just 7 days to customize a Beta Motard 200 or 250 into a tracker or scrambler.

In that time, the team of friends really came together, modifying the sub-frame, building a new seat, changing the gas tank, creating a 3D-printed number plate for the headlights, building a custom exhaust, and painting the bike. While the win went to their friends at VTF Custom, they built one impressive Beta street tracker…and the process was a reward in and of itself.
