Positioned in Sachs's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2011 Sachs Bee 50 features a 49.5 cc (3 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.6 HP (2.6 kW) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive.
On the scales, the Bee 50 measures 92 kg (203 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,250 mm (49.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 6-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 45 km/h (28 mph).
