Engineered by Linhai for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2016 Linhai Aeolus 150 Retro utilizes a 151 cc (9.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 8.7 HP (6.4 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 8 Nm (5.9 lb-ft) at 4,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 57.6 HP per liter and a 3,000 rpm working window between peak torque (4,000 rpm) and peak power (7,000 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the Aeolus 150 Retro measures 135.2 kg (298 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.06 HP/kg (15.54 kg per horsepower).
