Engineered by Lifan Ct-Ray 2020 for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2020 Lifan Ct-Ray 2020 Lifan CT-Ray relies on a 124.6 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 8.5 Nm (6.3 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 52.4 x 57.8 mm (2.1 x 2.3 inches) with a 9.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Lifan CT-Ray measures 115 kg (254 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 730 mm (28.7 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,215 mm (47.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 6-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.2 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 273 km (170 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 88 km/h (55 mph).
