Baghira Black Panther

2006 MZ Baghira Black Panther Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around MZ's super motard motorcycle platform, the 2006 MZ Baghira Black Panther relies on a 660 cc (40.3 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 49.6 HP (36.2 kW) at 6,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 57 Nm (42 lb-ft) at 5,250 rpm. With a specific output of 75.2 HP per liter and a 1,250 rpm working window between peak torque (5,250 rpm) and peak power (6,500 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 Baghira Black Panther measures 180 kg (397 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.28 HP/kg (3.63 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 900 mm (35.4 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,530 mm (60.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 12.5-liter (3.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 258 km/h (160 mph).
