At the heart of the 2013 Lambretta LT 50 scooter motorcycle, Lambretta features a 49.3 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 4.8 HP (3.5 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 4.3 Nm (3.2 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 38.0 x 43.5 mm (1.5 x 1.7 inches) with a 7.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the LT 50 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. The 6-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
