1976 Bajaj Super Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 1976 Bajaj Super scooter motorcycle, Bajaj utilizes a 145.5 cc (8.9 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 7.5 HP (5.5 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10.8 Nm (8 lb-ft) at 3,500 rpm. With a specific output of 51.5 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (3,500 rpm) and peak power (5,500 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

On the scales, the Super measures 103 kg (227 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (13.73 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,230 mm (48.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 6-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.63 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 228 km (142 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 80 km/h (50 mph).
