Built around Fantic's super motard motorcycle platform, the 2023 Fantic XM 50 Performance pairs a 48.9 cc (3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 40.3 x 39.0 mm (1.6 x 1.5 inches).
On the scales, the XM 50 Performance measures 95 kg (209 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 905 mm (35.6 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,420 mm (55.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 7.5-liter (2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.18 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 344 km (214 miles) between fill-ups.
