2014 Tauris Firefly 50 2T Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Tauris's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2014 Tauris Firefly 50 2T utilizes a 49.7 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.9 HP (2.8 kW) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive.

On the scales, the Firefly 50 2T measures 97 kg (214 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 783 mm (30.8 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 5.5-liter (1.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 45 km/h (28 mph).
