Overview

Introducing the 2020 Fantic 50M Competition The 2020 Fantic 50M Competition stands out as a remarkable entry in the super motard category, tailored for both young riders and those seeking a lightweight, agile machine for city commuting or spirited weekend rides. Fantic, a revered Italian brand with a rich heritage in off-road and competition motorcycles, has blended style, capability, and performance to create a bike that not only performs well but also turns heads with its striking aesthetics. Available in eye-catching color schemes like Red/White/Blue and Black/Green, the 50M is perfect for enthusiasts looking to make a statement while enjoying the thrill of the ride. Engine Performance and Riding Characteristics At the heart of the Fantic 50M Competition is a nimble 48.90 cc single-cylinder, two-stroke engine that delivers an exhilarating riding experience. With a bore and stroke of 40.3 mm x 39.2 mm, this little powerhouse is engineered for responsiveness and agility, making it ideal for tackling tight corners and urban landscapes. The electronic ignition system ensures quick starts and smooth acceleration, while the 6-speed gearbox provides ample gearing options for every type of ride. With a weight of just 84 kg (185.2 pounds), riders can expect a lively performance that feels both spirited and manageable, allowing for confident handling and control, whether on asphalt or gravel. Key Features and Technology The Fantic 50M Competition is equipped with a range of advanced features that enhance both performance and rider comfort. The liquid-cooled engine is complemented by a DellOrto 16 mm carburettor, ensuring efficient fuel delivery and optimal power output. The bike’s frame is constructed from a robust perimeter steel CrMo design, featuring a removable subframe for easy maintenance and customization. Additionally, the FANTIC FRS suspension system—comprised of a 41 mm upside-down front fork and a piggyback rear shock—provides exceptional handling and stability on varying terrains. Coupled with wave disc brakes, which offer superior stopping power, the 50M ensures riders maintain control, whether navigating city streets or enjoying a day at the track. **

Pros

    Cons

    • Lightweight and Agile: Weighing only 84 kg, the 50M offers outstanding maneuverability and responsiveness, perfect for both novice and experienced riders.
    • Powerful Two-Stroke Engine: The single-cylinder, two-stroke engine provides thrilling acceleration and an engaging riding experience, making it fun to ride.
    • Advanced Suspension and Braking: The FANTIC FRS suspension and wave disc brakes contribute to superior handling and stopping power, enhancing overall rider confidence.
    • Limited Fuel Capacity: With a fuel tank capacity of 7.50 liters (1.98 gallons), longer rides may require frequent refueling, which could be inconvenient for some riders.
    • Kick Start Only: The traditional kick starter may not appeal to riders accustomed to electric start systems, potentially complicating starting for some.
    • Niche Market Appeal: As a super motard, the bike may not suit every rider’s needs, particularly those seeking a more versatile motorcycle for diverse riding conditions.
