Engineered by Keeway for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2016 Keeway Hurricane 50 2T pairs a 49.9 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 2.9 HP (2.1 kW) at 7,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 3 Nm (2.2 lb-ft) at 4,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 40.0 x 39.2 mm (1.6 x 1.5 inches).
On the scales, the Hurricane 50 2T measures 87 kg (192 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 750 mm (29.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,050 mm (41.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5-liter (1.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
