Engineered by Aprilia for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2016 Aprilia SR Motard 50 features a 49.4 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 4.6 HP (3.3 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 3.8 Nm (2.8 lb-ft) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 40.0 x 39.3 mm (1.6 x 1.5 inches).
On the scales, the SR Motard 50 measures 106 kg (234 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 775 mm (30.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,350 mm (53.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
