2011 Veli VL 50QT-42 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Veli for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2011 Veli VL 50QT-42 pairs a 49.4 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.4 HP (2.5 kW) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and chain final drive.
