Introducing the 2019 CPI SX 50—a striking entry into the super motard segment that perfectly blends agility, performance, and style. Designed for both novice riders and seasoned enthusiasts, this motorcycle stands out with its spirited performance and urban prowess. With its lightweight frame and nimble handling, the SX 50 is not just a bike; it’s a ticket to exhilarating rides through city streets and winding country roads alike. Available in a bold black and red color scheme, it captures attention while delivering a thrilling ride. At the heart of the SX 50 lies a robust single-cylinder, two-stroke engine that displaces 50cc, providing a peppy 11.5:1 compression ratio.

The SX 50 boasts a sturdy twin tube steel frame that contributes to its lightweight build of just 99 kg (218.3 pounds), enhancing maneuverability without sacrificing durability. A telescopic hydraulic fork at the front with 170 mm of travel and a swingarm with a hydraulic monoshock absorber at the rear providing 200 mm of travel ensures that the ride remains smooth and responsive, regardless of the terrain. Safety is prioritized with a single disc brake setup at both the front (260 mm) and rear (220 mm), delivering confident stopping power. Coupled with an adjustable seat height of 820 mm, this bike caters to a wide range of riders, making it accessible for those who might be new to the world of motorcycling. **
