Positioned in Lifan's enduro - offroad motorcycle lineup, the 2011 Lifan Chimp 100 relies on a 97 cc (5.9 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 7.2 HP (5.3 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 5.6 Nm (4.1 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 74.2 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Chimp 100 measures 76 kg (168 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (10.56 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,190 mm (46.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
