Built around Derringer's classic motorcycle platform, the 2016 Derringer 50 relies on a 49 cc (3 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant.
On the scales, the 50 measures 31.8 kg (70 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 914 mm (36 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control. The 6.81-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
