With its sleek lines and compact build, this motorcycle captures the essence of classic design while boasting contemporary features that make it a versatile choice for navigating city streets or enjoying leisurely weekend rides. At the heart of the Muscle 50 lies a robust 49.50 ccm single-cylinder, four-stroke engine.

With a fuel capacity of 17 liters, riders can enjoy longer journeys without frequent stops for refueling. The adjustable seat height of 720 mm ensures that riders of varying stature can find their perfect fit, enhancing comfort and control.
