At the heart of the 2015 BamX BX200-DB Outback enduro - offroad motorcycle, BamX relies on a 196 cc (12 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 16.1 HP (11.7 kW) at 6,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 13 Nm (9.6 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 82.1 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the BX200-DB Outback measures 125.2 kg (276 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.78 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 838 mm (33 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams. The 5-liter (1.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
