Built around Gilera's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2011 Gilera Runner SP 50 features a 49.3 cc (3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 4.4 HP (3.2 kW) at 7,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 4.6 Nm (3.4 lb-ft) at 6,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 40.0 x 39.3 mm (1.6 x 1.5 inches).
On the scales, the Runner SP 50 measures 103 kg (227 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 815 mm (32.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,270 mm (50 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
