With a compression ratio of 9.0:1 and a simple yet effective carburetor fuel system, this engine provides smooth throttle response and dependable performance.

This setup ensures a comfortable ride over bumps and rough surfaces. Safety is paramount, and the expanding drum brakes at both the front and rear offer reliable stopping power, giving riders peace of mind on the trails. With a seat height of 663 mm (26.1 inches), it’s accessible for a wide range of riders, while the impressive ground clearance of 178 mm (7.0 inches) allows it to tackle obstacles with ease. **
