Positioned in Peugeot's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2008 Peugeot Jet C-Tech Darkside pairs a 49.1 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing.
On the scales, the Jet C-Tech Darkside measures 106 kg (234 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
