The TM is in a realm of its own, the body work is simplistic and the hard parts are superb!
The sole of each machine is completely different. The Beta is familiar and safe, the TM, let's say me and it have not yet come to terms. My first real ride on the TM was with Fletch and I have to say it may have been my worst ride since I started riding some 40 plus years ago. But, because of that ride I learned some set up items on the TM and I learned it really wants to be pushed. By the time I had figured some of this out that day I was completely worn out from fighting it and the mud. The TM and I will get there, but mostly I need to do much more riding in this year...
