Positioned in Macbor's naked motorcycle lineup, the 2024 Macbor Eight Mile 500 Scrambler relies on a 471 cc (28.7 cu in) twin, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 46.9 HP (34.3 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 43 Nm (31.7 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 99.6 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Eight Mile 500 Scrambler measures 195 kg (430 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.24 HP/kg (4.16 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,440 mm (56.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.9 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 462 km (287 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 175 km/h (109 mph).
