At the heart of the 2016 Keeway RY6 scooter motorcycle, Keeway utilizes a 49.3 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.5 HP (2.6 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 4.6 Nm (3.4 lb-ft) at 5,200 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) with a 6.9:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the RY6 measures 96 kg (212 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 775 mm (30.5 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 6-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
