At the heart of the 2021 Macbor Montana XR5 500 sport touring motorcycle, Macbor pairs a 471 cc (28.7 cu in) air-cooled twin, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 67.0 x 66.8 mm (2.6 x 2.6 inches) with a 10.1:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Montana XR5 500 measures 178 kg (392 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 840 mm (33.1 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,460 mm (57.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 21-liter (5.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
