RKX 125, 150 and 200
Simple, light (133 kg dry) and sleek to the max, the RKX 125 (also available in 150 and 200 cc) benefits from a cool design largely inspired by contemporary roadsters, notably the Kawasaki ER6-N. It has pretty 17 ”wheels with five-spoke aluminum alloy rims, a bronze anodized inverted fork, a shock absorber anchored in the lateral position on the right side, wave discs (front 2 piston caliper), a long two-seater two-level saddle, large passenger grab handles, a 16-liter tank and a small windscreen.
It is powered by a single overhead camshaft, single overhead cam, 4-stroke single cylinder, carburettor-powered and air-cooled.
Its power is 11.5 horsepower at 9,000 rpm for a torque of 9.2 Nm at 7,500 rpm. The 150 cc is given for 13 hp and the 200 cc – which has a liquid cooling system – for 17 hp.
It should be offered in black, white, blue, red and orange colors with different graphics, at a price probably attractive but still unknown..
Cityblade Scooter
On the scooter side, the CityBlade 125 (also available in 150) displays a relatively compact but nevertheless plush size, perfectly suited to the city. It has large 14-inch front and rear wheels, a short smoke bubble, a front face incorporating a double optical headlight, crystal indicators integrated into the fairing, a two-seater seat with pilot backrest and non-slip coating and anti vibration.
The CityBlade also has a handy flat floor (with retractable bag hook housed on the apron), a 7-liter fuel tank and a trunk under the seat that accepts a jet helmet with screen. Braking is provided by 240 and 220 mm discs with two piston calipers at the front.
The engine is entrusted to a 4-stroke single cylinder with a power of 7 forced air cooled and powered by a carburetor. Figures may be a little fair compared to the competition, despite a dry weight of 122.5 kg. However, the manufacturer announces a top speed of 85 km / h. This scooter should be available in black, blue, red and pearl gray, with different saddle colors, as well as a mixed black / matt black color..
It remains to know the price and availability of these two new products … MNC will conduct the investigation from the opening of the EICMA show in Milan to the press on Tuesday, November 5: stay tuned !
