Overview

Introducing the 2016 Fantic Caballero 50E Performance, a spirited contender in the world of enduro motorcycles, perfectly marrying Italian craftsmanship with off-road prowess. Designed for enthusiasts seeking a lightweight, nimble machine, the Caballero 50E Performance stands out in the competitive landscape of small displacement bikes. This motorcycle is not just a vibrant piece of engineering; it embodies the adventurous spirit of the Fantic brand, which has been synonymous with quality and performance in the two-wheeled world since the 1960s. Whether you’re tackling rugged trails or cruising through urban landscapes, this bike promises to deliver an exhilarating ride. At the heart of the Caballero is a robust 48.90 cc single-cylinder, two-stroke engine, meticulously engineered to provide a thrilling performance. The engine’s 6-speed gearbox allows for seamless power delivery, making it a joy to ride both on and off the beaten path. With an electronic ignition and liquid cooling, the bike ensures consistent performance even in challenging conditions. The precisely engineered bore and stroke ratio of 40.3 x 39.2 mm contributes to its agile handling and responsive acceleration, allowing riders to confidently navigate technical terrains. Coupled with a lightweight frame at just 84 kg (185.2 lbs), the Caballero 50E is a dynamic machine that begs to be pushed to its limits. The Fantic Caballero 50E Performance comes loaded with features that enhance both functionality and rider experience. The conventional front fork and the Fantic FRS 50 single shock at the rear provide excellent suspension, ensuring that rough trails are met with stability and control. The bike is equipped with wave discs for both front (260 mm) and rear (220 mm) brakes, offering superior stopping power and modulation, critical for navigating steep descents or sudden obstacles. Not to forget, the stylish color options of white, red, and blue add a distinctive flair to this already striking machine. With a fuel capacity of 7.50 liters (1.98 gallons), you can explore the great outdoors without constantly worrying about refueling. **

Pros

  • Lightweight Design: At 84 kg, the Caballero 50E is easy to maneuver, making it ideal for both experienced riders and newcomers to the enduro scene.
  • Powerful Engine: The potent 48.90 cc two-stroke engine provides impressive acceleration and responsiveness, perfect for tackling challenging terrains.
