heard of a Rocket 3 being bored out to 2600
Anyway....
OP.
There are no hard and fast engineering rules,
a bike could have anysize of engine 47, 127, 164, 293, 511
just trends/markets/insurance groups/legislation
like here in the UK
50cc for sub 17 year olds etc
125 max for CBT riders
then 33bhp for restricted licenses
then just about anything after that AFAIK
Anything lower than 50cc will probably struggle to pull you about
( some may say 50ccs do this already)
After that its personal preference
Some folk are happy commuting with a 125 which should
keep up with town traffic very economical and usually simple machines.
Some want speedy, powerful, 'sexy' bikes like my 1979 CX500
I've had it up to 53 mph at times

A massive thank-you, Just the Answer I was looking for Had a 125cc Got me around and agree it's very handy for commuting. Agree with the 50cc wouldn't be seen on one personally.
Yes that's what I see more (Trends) 125, 600. That's why I thought they where made in certain sizes.
Thank's again, Glad there's some decent people here  |
