Built around Kreidler's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2013 Kreidler Galactica 2.0 RS 50 DD relies on a 49 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 4.1 HP (3 kW) at 6,300 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive.
On the scales, the Galactica 2.0 RS 50 DD measures 91 kg (201 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,350 mm (53.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5.5-liter (1.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
