Engineered by Rieju for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2007 Rieju RS2 Matrix relies on a 50 cc (3.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 40.3 x 39.0 mm (1.6 x 1.5 inches).
On the scales, the RS2 Matrix measures 107 kg (236 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,332 mm (52.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7.4-liter (2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
