Introducing the 2007 CPI Supermoto SMX, a spirited contender in the supermotard category that promises an exhilarating ride for both urban commuters and off-road adventurers alike. Designed for those who crave versatility, this nimble machine seamlessly blends the agility of a dirt bike with the performance of a street motorcycle. With its striking orange color and aggressive stance, the Supermoto SMX is not only a head-turner but also a practical choice for riders who want to conquer the streets and the trails with equal finesse.
At the heart of the Supermoto SMX lies a robust single-cylinder, two-stroke engine with a displacement of 49.20 ccm. This compact powerhouse delivers a thrilling punch, making every twist of the throttle an invitation to explore. The engine's bore and stroke of 40.0 x 39.2 mm create a responsive character, while the liquid cooling system ensures optimal performance even during high-energy rides. Paired with a 6-speed gearbox, riders can effortlessly navigate through urban traffic or tackle winding backroads, all while enjoying the smooth power delivery that this bike is known for. With a final drive by chain, the Supermoto SMX promises reliability and ease of maintenance, allowing you to focus on the ride ahead.
One of the standout features of the Supermoto SMX is its advanced suspension system, designed to enhance both comfort and control. The hydraulic telescope fork at the front and adjustable hydraulic suspension at the rear provide a plush ride, absorbing bumps and irregularities in the terrain with grace. Stopping power is not compromised either, thanks to the solid single disc brakes—270 mm at the front and 210 mm at the rear—that ensure quick and reliable braking performance. The bike's dimensions, measuring 1,955 mm in length and 790 mm in width, create a compact footprint, allowing for agile handling and effortless maneuverability. Additionally, with a fuel capacity of 7.00 litres, riders can enjoy extended journeys without frequent stops at the pump.

- Niche Appeal: As a supermotard, its specific design may not appeal to all riders, particularly those looking for a traditional sportbike or cruiser experience.
In the end, the 2007 CPI Supermoto SMX stands out as a vibrant, spirited motorcycle that embodies the essence of fun and freedom on two wheels. Whether you’re dashing through city streets or tackling rugged paths, this bike is sure to ignite your passion for riding.
