Built around Cobra's minibike, cross motorcycle platform, the 2011 Cobra CX50 Card relies on a 50 cc (3.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 39.0 x 41.7 mm (1.5 x 1.6 inches).
On the scales, the CX50 Card measures 42 kg (93 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 680 mm (26.8 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 990 mm (39 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
