Engineered by Polini for the minibike, cross motorcycle segment, the 2005 Polini Minicross X5 utilizes a 49.3 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 40.0 x 39.3 mm (1.6 x 1.5 inches).
On the scales, the Minicross X5 measures 43 kg (95 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 730 mm (28.7 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops. The 4-liter (1.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
