2017 Tomos Roadie Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Tomos for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2017 Tomos Roadie relies on a 49 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 38.0 x 43.0 mm (1.5 x 1.7 inches) with a 10.0:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the Roadie measures 54 kg (119 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,080 mm (42.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4-liter (1.1 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 1.8 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 222 km (138 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 45 km/h (28 mph).
