With its eye-catching silver and yellow color options, this bike is not just a means of transportation; it’s a statement of individuality on two wheels. At the heart of the SR40 lies a robust 398cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that pumps out 42 horsepower, delivering a thrilling ride that is both spirited and manageable. The engine’s bore and stroke dimensions of 90.0 x 62.6 mm (3.5 x 2.5 inches) ensure a smooth power delivery, while the Keihin FCR39 carburettor optimizes fuel flow for a responsive throttle.

The suspension setup, consisting of Paioli conventional forks at the front and Hagon twin shocks at the rear, provides 124 mm (4.9 inches) of travel, ensuring a comfortable ride over various terrains. The braking system, with single discs measuring 280 mm (11.0 inches) at the front and 260 mm (10.2 inches) at the rear, offers reliable stopping power, allowing riders to confidently navigate urban streets or winding country roads. The electric starter adds modern convenience to this classic ride, making it easy to get going at a moment's notice. **
