Positioned in Benelli's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2014 Benelli Pepe 50 Classic 2T features a 49.2 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.6 HP (2.6 kW) at 6,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 4.2 Nm (3.1 lb-ft) at 6,000 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 39.2 mm (1.6 x 1.5 inches) with a 6.9:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Pepe 50 Classic 2T measures 82 kg (181 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,285 mm (50.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7.5-liter (2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
