Positioned in Moto Morini's super motard motorcycle lineup, the 2022 Moto Morini X-Cape 650-T utilizes a 649 cc (39.6 cu in) v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 60.4 HP (44.1 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 56 Nm (41.3 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through chain final drive. With a specific output of 93.1 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 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 X-Cape 650-T measures 213 kg (470 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.28 HP/kg (3.53 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,490 mm (58.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 175 km/h (109 mph).
