Built around Hanway's allround motorcycle platform, the 2019 Hanway Blackcafe 50 pairs a 49.5 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 2.8 HP (2.1 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 2.7 Nm (2 lb-ft) at 5,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through chain final drive.
On the scales, the Blackcafe 50 measures 110 kg (243 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 720 mm (28.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,320 mm (52 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
