Positioned in TGB's atv motorcycle lineup, the 2012 TGB Target 550 IRS 4x4 utilizes a 503 cc (30.7 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 19.7 HP (14.4 kW) at 6,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 27.5 Nm (20.3 lb-ft) at 3,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 39.2 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (3,500 rpm) and peak power (6,000 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the Target 550 IRS 4x4 measures 364 kg (802 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.05 HP/kg (18.48 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 920 mm (36.2 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,280 mm (50.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 15-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
