2017 Honda Vision 50 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Honda for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2017 Honda Vision 50 features a 49 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.4 HP (2.4 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 3.5 Nm (2.6 lb-ft) at 6,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 37.8 x 44.0 mm (1.5 x 1.7 inches) with a 10.0:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the Vision 50 measures 100 kg (220 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 785 mm (30.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,284 mm (50.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5.5-liter (1.5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 1.6 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 344 km (214 miles) between fill-ups.
