Frequently Asked Questions - New Motorcycles
1. What types of motorcycles does Backcountry Motorsports sell new?
New motorcycle inventory here is enduro and off-road focused, built around the Beta and TM lineups: trail and competition machines rather than street bikes, ranging from approachable trainer-style models to race-oriented builds.
2. What's the difference between Beta and TM motorcycles?
Beta and TM both build off-road enduro motorcycles, but each has its own engine and chassis character. Beta's Xtrainer and RR lines, including the RR XPro, are known for approachable power delivery, while TM's Racing models lean toward a race-tuned setup.
3. Are these motorcycles a good option for a first off-road bike?
Yes, for the right rider. Models like the Beta Xtrainer have a lower seat height and softer power delivery, making them a common starting point for riders newer to enduro, while the RR and TM Racing lines suit more experienced riders.
4. Is financing available on new motorcycles?
Yes, new Beta and TM units qualify for current promotions, including deferred first-payment offers on some models. Full financing terms are on our Financing page.
5. Do you carry used motorcycles as well?
Sometimes. Used motorcycle inventory depends on trade-ins and turnover, so it isn't always in stock. Our used motorcycle inventory page shows current availability alongside this new lineup.
6. What should I consider when choosing between engine displacement sizes?
Smaller displacement enduro bikes are generally lighter and easier to manage at low speed and in technical sections, while larger displacement models deliver more power for open trails and faster riding.
7. Do new motorcycles here come with a manufacturer warranty?
Yes. New Beta motorcycles carry a manufacturer warranty of 6 to 12 months depending on model, plus an optional 2-year extended warranty available through Beta. TM Racing coverage is more limited given its lower-volume, race-built nature. Confirm current terms at time of purchase.
8. Are Beta and TM motorcycles well suited to the trails around Pemberton?
Yes, enduro bikes like the Beta Xtrainer and TM Racing models are built for exactly the kind of technical, backcountry terrain found around Pemberton and the wider Sea-to-Sky corridor, rather than groomed motocross tracks or pavement.
9. What time of year is best for off-road motorcycle riding near Pemberton?
Most local riders stick to the snow-free months, roughly spring through fall, since forest service road and trail access around Pemberton can be affected by snowpack in winter.
