Engine

• 49cc, liquid-cooled, SOHC, 3-valve, fuel injected, 4-stroke engine produces peppy, easy to use power with incredible fuel economy.
• Fuel consumption rating of approximately 55 kilometers per litre or 155 miles per gallon (imp.). Your actual consumption may vary.
• Fast, dependable electric starting.
• Maintenance-free transistor controlled ignition (TCI).
  • produces a strong spark for fast starts
  • provides precise ignition timing / mapping for optimum engine performance at all rpms
• Fan-assisted, liquid-cooling.
  • maintains consistent engine temperatures even in stop & go traffic
  • liquid-cooling allows for a higher state of tune / performance
  • reduces mechanical engine noise
• 3- valve cylinder head.
  • utilizes two intake valves & one exhaust valve
  • excellent breathing efficiency & excellent fuel economy
• Roller rocker arm valve actuation.
  • specially designed roller rocker arms reduce friction for increased power
  • reduce mechanical engine noise for a quiet, enjoyable ride
• Intake & exhaust valves feature a special "carbon cutter" valve stem design.
  • automatically removes carbon build up from the valve stems
  • maintains maximum engine efficiency & power, even during extended slow speed use
  • (carbon build up on valve stems can lead to sticky valves & poor performance)
• Lightweight, aluminum cylinder features ceramic composite plating on the cylinder bore.
  • insures uniform heat dissipation
  • reduces internal friction & weight
• Lightweight crankshaft with carburized connecting rod & lightweight forged aluminum piston.
  • optimizes engine performance & provides fast throttle response
  • excellent durability (carburization is a heat treating process that increases the strength of steel)
  • reduces mechanical vibration
• 19 mm, "closed loop" throttle body fuel injection system.
  • excellent fuel economy & good throttle response
  • "closed loop system" uses an oxygen sensor to "sniff" spent exhaust & automatically adjust the fuel / air ratio for reduced emissions
  • fuel injection benefits include choke-free starting, steady idling during warm up, excellent fuel economy & reduced emissions
• BWs 50 uses regular 87 octane gasoline.
• Easy access, paper-type air filter is used. Air box design reduces intake noise.
• Centrifugal oil filtering system.
  • automatically removes any particles found in the oil
  • never requires cleaning or maintenance
• Fully automatic CVT transmission (CVT = constantly variable transmission).
  • "twist-the-throttle-and-go" operation
  • no clutch lever or gear shifting involved - the transmission is fully automatic.
• Environmentally responsible exhaust system produces a very quiet exhaust note.
  • muffler contains dual honeycomb-style catalytic converters to reduce emissions
• Air induction System (AIS) further reduces harmful exhaust emissions.
  • AIS system injects fresh air into the exhaust to ensure complete fuel combustion
  • also helps to maximize the function of the catalytic converters

CHASSIS/SUSPENSION

• Rugged "underbone-style" steel frame.
  • makes getting on & off the BW's easy
• Wheelbase, centre of gravity, weight distribution & tire design, have all been engineered to provide light, agile handling & great manoeuvrability.
• 26 mm hydraulic front fork.
  • 58mm (2.3") of wheel travel
  • rubber fork gaiters / boots extend service life of fork seals & protect inner tubes from chips
• Single shock unit swingarm rear suspension.
  • 56mm (2.2") of wheel travel
  • good ride quality
• Lightweight, rugged 5-spoke aluminum "mag" wheels with wide, tubeless tires.
  • wide, aggressive, tubeless 120/90-10 tires front & rear
  • tires well suited for rough, "pot holed" urban roadways
  • tires provide lots of grip & help create BW's unmistakably fun look.
• 180 mm front disc brake with single piston caliper.
  • "wave style" rotor adds style
  • excellent stopping power
• Rear drum brake.
  • good stopping power
  • fast & easy wear compensating adjustments via wing nut adjuster

• Instrumentation includes: speedometer, odometer & fuel gauge.
  • also warning lights for coolant temperature, high beam, turn signals & engine warning light
• Spacious, 23 litre, lockable under seat storage.
  • can hold selected full-face helmets
  • or everyday commuter items like rain suit, laptop, briefcase, etc.
• Plush seat provides excellent comfort & plenty of room.
• 4.5 litre fuel tank with locking gas cap and in tank electric fuel pump.
  • accessed via a panel on the "foot tunnel"
  • filling location keeps the centre of gravity low for easy handling
  • location minimizes mess if some fuel gets accidentally spilled
  • excellent fuel economy means an extended riding range & fewer fill ups
• Multifunction, 3 in 1 main key switch operates ignition, fork lock & under seat storage lock.
  • special anti-theft "shutter" blocks key hole access to prevent tampering
• Dual 35 watt halogen headlights.
  • excellent illumination & rider visibility
  • design enhances BW's tough yet sporty rally styling
