2013 Terra Modena 198 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Terra Modena for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2013 Terra Modena 198 utilizes a 449.6 cc (27.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 98.0 x 59.6 mm (3.9 x 2.3 inches).

On the scales, the 198 measures 120 kg (265 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 890 mm (35 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,048 mm (41.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 8.5-liter (2.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
