Overview

Introducing the 2012 Fischer MRX Race, a motorcycle that embodies the spirit of sport biking with its thrilling performance and striking design. Positioned as a fierce competitor in the sport motorcycle category, the MRX Race is tailored for riders who crave adrenaline-fueled experiences on both the track and open roads. With its lightweight construction and aggressive styling, the MRX Race captures the essence of racing while still being accessible to enthusiasts looking for a high-performance ride. At the heart of the MRX Race lies a potent 647cc V2 four-stroke engine, delivering an exhilarating 80 horsepower at 9,500 RPM and 52 Nm of torque at 7,500 RPM. This combination provides a thrilling powerband that propels riders forward with vigor, making every twist of the throttle an adventure in itself. The engine operates with a high compression ratio of 11.5:1 and features a sophisticated fuel system using dual Mikuni 39mm carburettors, ensuring crisp throttle response and smooth power delivery. Coupled with a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive, the MRX Race offers exceptional acceleration and top-end performance, making it a formidable contender on race days. The MRX Race stands out not just for its performance, but also for its advanced features and cutting-edge technology. Its chassis is crafted from a twin-spar alloy frame with a trellis sub-structure, providing maximum rigidity and stability while keeping the overall weight down to just 150.5 kg (331.8 pounds). The front suspension consists of 43mm inverted telescopic forks that allow for compression and rebound adjustments, ensuring a customized riding experience. The rear features an Ohlins single shock with adjustable ride height and damping settings, allowing riders to fine-tune their setup for various conditions. Additionally, its hand-laid carbon fiber and fiberglass body components not only enhance aesthetics but also contribute to the motorcycle’s lightweight nature, while the Brembo brakes ensure powerful stopping power and confidence in every corner. **

Pros

  • Exceptional Power-to-Weight Ratio: With a power-to-weight ratio of 0.5316 HP/kg, the MRX Race accelerates rapidly and handles with agility, ideal for both track and street riding.
  • Customizable Suspension: Riders can fine-tune suspension settings to match their riding style or track conditions, providing a personalized experience.
  • Striking Design and Materials: The use of carbon fiber and fiberglass not only contributes to performance but also gives the MRX Race a standout appearance that turns heads.

Cons

  • Limited Fuel Capacity: With a fuel capacity of 17.03 liters (4.5 gallons), longer rides may require more frequent stops, which could be inconvenient for some riders.
  • Seat Height: The seat height of 749 mm (29.5 inches) may be a challenge for shorter riders, limiting accessibility.
  • Niche Market Appeal: As a sport-focused motorcycle, it may not cater to riders looking for versatile or touring capabilities, narrowing its audience.
