Positioned in Aprilia's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2005 Aprilia Scarabeo 100 Four Stroke features a 96.2 cc (5.9 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 50.0 x 49.0 mm (2.0 x 1.9 inches) with a 10.5:1 compression ratio.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,245 mm (49 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
