1995 MuZ Saxon Country 500 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 1995 MuZ Saxon Country 500 allround motorcycle, MuZ utilizes a 494 cc (30.1 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 34 HP (24.8 kW) at 7,200 rpm while maximum torque reaches 34.3 Nm (25.3 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 68.8 HP per liter and a 1,200 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (7,200 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
