Positioned in Cobra's minibike, cross motorcycle lineup, the 2009 Cobra CX65 C.A.R.D. relies on a 65 cc (4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 44.5 x 41.7 mm (1.8 x 1.6 inches).
On the scales, the CX65 C.A.R.D. measures 55.3 kg (122 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 762 mm (30 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,140 mm (44.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
