2018 UM Renegade Vegas Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around UM's sport motorcycle platform, the 2018 UM Renegade Vegas relies on a 279 cc (17 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 25 HP (18.2 kW) while maximum torque reaches 23 Nm (17 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 89.6 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,550 mm (61 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
