Positioned in CCM's classic motorcycle lineup, the 2011 CCM SR40 pairs a 398 cc (24.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 42 HP (30.7 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through chain final drive. With a specific output of 105.5 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the SR40 measures 139 kg (306 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.3 HP/kg (3.31 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 930 mm (36.6 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
