2022 Motus MSTR Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Motus for the sport touring motorcycle segment, the 2022 Motus MSTR pairs a 1650 cc (100.7 cu in) liquid-cooled v4, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 180 HP (131.4 kW) at 8,200 rpm while maximum torque reaches 171 Nm (126.1 lb-ft) at 5,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 109.1 HP per liter and a 3,200 rpm working window between peak torque (5,000 rpm) and peak power (8,200 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 MSTR measures 256 kg (564 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.7 HP/kg (1.42 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 813 mm (32 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,473 mm (58 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 20.82-liter (5.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
