Interesting concept, something to put on the back of a camper?
But how big is the fuel tank, I am assuming its hidden in there somewhere?

I wonder if that is what they did, got a version of the 500 RFVC single...if so then I would like one of these.

[MJH]

Probably the same engine showing up in SWM that is 440cc, I imagine the RFVC 400 was just a smaller bore and they just followed what Honda originally did, this is likely a 440cc Xinyaun (Shineray) Engine.

probably a....



yeah for sure it is the Cagiva 500cc single

I can understand your enthusiasm, particularly since you got yours for less than a third of the MSRP. I actually have seen one of those in the flesh at a local dealer. To be honest if I found one for $950.00 I would have bought it, probably.

put about a hundred miles on it today (nearly doubling its total miles). Left me with definite impressions. Aside from not being able to get out of it's own way (which as entirely predictable), I was surprised to feel how well it handled. On my favorite twisty country roads, it was so nice as it threaded its way through with hardly any input. Nice! Those tires could probably benefit from an upgrade, tho.....

It’s not broken in yet, there lots of different opinion on that, alternating speeds and rpm constantly. Lots of short rides and opportunities for it to cool down, till the metal stabilizes.

OooPS! I took it out for a 150 mile ride in the countryside today. Did take breaks here and there. I'll keep that in mind in the future......All went well except nut fell off the front brake caliper.....

Any one think the newer 500 misfit motor would fit in the older frame? the entire bike looks larger so it may not. Looking for more power on my '13 misfit. with the 230 lifan. either motor swap or GT15 turbo.
