Overview

Introducing the 2021 Baotian Manila CG, a versatile all-round motorcycle designed to cater to the needs of both urban commuters and weekend adventurers alike. With its sleek lines and practical design, the Manila CG stands out as an affordable entry point into the world of motorcycling. This Chinese brand has focused on creating a machine that blends reliability and performance, making it an attractive option for riders looking to navigate through city streets or embark on leisurely rides in the countryside. At the heart of the Manila CG is its 149.6 ccm single-cylinder, four-stroke engine, delivering a spirited 10.7 horsepower at 7000 RPM and a torque of 11.5 Nm at 6500 RPM. This robust powertrain ensures that riders experience a lively performance, allowing for a top speed of 95 km/h (59 mph). With a compression ratio of 9.4:1 and an air-cooled system, the engine is designed for longevity and low maintenance. Coupled with a smooth 5-speed gearbox and wet multi-disc clutch, the Manila CG offers a seamless riding experience, making it easy to tackle both stop-and-go traffic and open roads with confidence. The Manila CG doesn’t skimp on features, either. Riders will appreciate the combination of electric and kick-start options, making it accessible for those who prefer a traditional approach or the convenience of modern technology. The bike is equipped with expanding drum brakes both in the front and rear, ensuring reliable stopping power. The telescopic front fork and dual-shock rear suspension provide a balanced ride, absorbing bumps and ensuring stability. With a weight of just 102 kg (224.9 pounds) and a compact frame, the Manila CG is agile and easy to maneuver, making it a great choice for both novice and experienced riders. **

Pros

  • Affordable and Economical: The Baotian Manila CG offers excellent value for money, making it a great choice for budget-conscious riders.
  • Lightweight and Agile: At just over 100 kg, this motorcycle is easy to handle and perfect for navigating city traffic.
  • Versatile Performance: With a good balance of power and torque, it performs well in both urban and rural environments.

Cons

  • Limited Top Speed: While adequate for city riding, the top speed of 95 km/h may be limiting for those seeking highway performance.
  • Drum Brakes: The expanding drum brakes, while reliable, may not provide the same stopping power and feel as modern disc brakes.
  • Brand Recognition: As a Chinese brand, Baotian may lack the established reputation of more well-known manufacturers, which could be a consideration for some buyers.
