2011 Sachs SpeedJet R Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Sachs for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2011 Sachs SpeedJet R features a 49 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 2.8 HP (2.1 kW) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox.
On the scales, the SpeedJet R measures 90 kg (198 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,320 mm (52 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).
