Introducing the 2008 CPI GTR 50, a nimble scooter that captures the essence of urban commuting with a sporty edge. Designed for riders seeking a blend of practicality and performance, the GTR 50 stands out in the crowded scooter market thanks to its sleek lines and vibrant color options, including eye-catching red and white as well as a bold blue and black combination. This scooter is tailored for young riders and those new to the two-wheeled experience, offering an accessible entry point without compromising on style or capability. At the heart of the GTR 50 lies a spirited 49.20 ccm single-cylinder, two-stroke engine that churns out a respectable 4.42 horsepower at 6550 RPM. This lightweight powerplant ensures that urban commutes and weekend jaunts are both exhilarating and efficient. With a 6-speed gearbox, riders can easily shift through the gears, providing a smooth and responsive riding experience. The liquid cooling system enhances performance by maintaining optimal engine temperatures, while the carburettor fuel system ensures reliable fuel delivery.

The CPI GTR 50 doesn’t just shine in performance; it also boasts several features that enhance convenience and comfort. The scooter is equipped with both electric and kick starters, ensuring that you can get going quickly, no matter the situation. The front and rear hydraulic disc brakes provide excellent stopping power, with a front brake diameter of 280 mm and rear at 210 mm, allowing for confident braking in various conditions. The adjustable hydraulic gas pressure rear suspension is another highlight, ensuring that riders can fine-tune their ride for comfort and stability. Compact dimensions, with a length of 1,940 mm and a width of 730 mm, make it easy to maneuver through traffic while the 9-litre fuel tank provides ample range for daily adventures. **

Pros

  • Lightweight & Agile: The compact design and low weight make it exceptionally easy to handle in urban environments.
  • Sporty Performance: The 49.20 ccm engine delivers a punchy ride with good acceleration, perfect for city commuting.
  • Adjustable Suspension: The rear hydraulic gas pressure suspension allows riders to customize their ride quality for comfort or sportiness.
