Built around KSR's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2017 KSR Vertigo 50 4T relies on a 49.9 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.6 HP (2.6 kW) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive.
On the scales, the Vertigo 50 4T measures 92 kg (203 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,300 mm (51.2 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.
