2014 Keeway Swan 50 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Keeway for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2014 Keeway Swan 50 pairs a 49.3 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.8 HP (2.7 kW) at 6,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 4.2 Nm (3.1 lb-ft) at 5,750 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) with a 6.9:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the Swan 50 measures 75 kg (165 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 765 mm (30.1 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,190 mm (46.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 3.7-liter (1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
