2006 Sherco 0.5 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Sherco's minibike, cross motorcycle platform, the 2006 Sherco 0.5 relies on a 49.3 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. 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 0.5 measures 34 kg (75 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 510 mm (20.1 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,020 mm (40.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 2.3-liter (0.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
