Cleveland Cyclewerks Misfit 250CC Motorcycle comes with 4 Stroke & Air Cooled Engine Type
The Cleveland Cyclewerks Misfit, meanwhile, is being touted as a sporty commuter, and has a more retro-modern aesthetic. It seems to be styled based on the nostalgia wave that has taken the fancy of bike builders across Europe and the US in recent years. The Misfit is currently in its second generation. CCW says, “The Misfit has oodles of character built to fill the gap for customers who want an affordable American motorcycle that they can enjoy riding and maintaining themselves. At the same time, it is a performance bike in the 250cc category, rolling on chromed steel wheels, an 18-inch front and a 16 rear”.
The Misfit is a café-racer-style premium commuter. Powered by a 223cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine with an overhead camshaft and a power and torque output of 16.3hp at 7,500rpm and 18Nm at 5,500rpm, the Misfit is meant to be the sportiest bike of the range. It gets inverted front forks, a 315mm, four-piston disc brake up front and a 220mm, two-piston disc brake at the back. The bike has a wheelbase of 1,400mm and seat height of 775mm, along with a wet weight of 144kg.
