The air filter box is now red. Functionally, it is the same as before, as the dedicated TwinAir foam filter. The filter is accessible either from above via the small cover or by removing the rear mudguard in a few simple steps.

Also the frame is now painted in distinctive Beta red colour to accentuate the beauty of the hydroformed aluminium structure – a hallmark feature of the EVO.
The suspension has been updated with revised fork settings to optimise the damping curve in both fully compressed and fully extended states. This has been achieved by modifying both the mechanical settings of the suspension and the volume of oil contained in the stanchions – with different quantities used for the right and left hand sides of the fork. This means that EVO is equipped with an asymmetric fork, with the left and right hand stanchions differing both functionally and in internal volume. The left hand side features adjustable spring length, for setting ride height, while the hydraulic functions of the fork are settable on the right hand stanchion, for customising the damping behaviour and responsiveness of the front end. By using different oil volumes calibrated specifically for the left- and right- hand stanchions, both the progressiveness of the fork and the precision with which feel is transmitted to the rider have been improved.

The functions of the map selector switch, on the other hand, have been maintained. The EVO offers a choice of two different engine maps selectable by the rider with a button practically located on the tank cover. This placement makes the button easy to reach while offering protection against knocks and unintentional operation, while an LED indicator lets the rider immediately identify which map is currently in use.
