Engineered by Yangtze for the motorcycle segment, the 1991 Yangtze 750 Spezial A (with sidecar) utilizes a 745 cc (45.5 cu in) air-cooled two cylinder boxer, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 24 HP (17.5 kW) at 4,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 32.2 HP per liter, the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the 750 Spezial A (with sidecar) measures 350 kg (772 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (14.58 kg per horsepower). The 23-liter (6.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 90 km/h (56 mph).
