Built around Tauris's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2011 Tauris Cubana 50 4T features a 49.7 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3 HP (2.2 kW) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive.
On the scales, the Cubana 50 4T measures 113 kg (249 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 740 mm (29.1 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops. The 6-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
