        driven by a 648cc liquid-cooled twin-cylinder engine with 47 horsepower and 52 Nm of torque. A six-speed gearbox that is linked to the engine allows for precise and seamless shifting.

        With rear-set footpegs and clip-on handlebars, it offers a lively riding stance. For riders who prefer a more upright position or for extended journeys, its aggressive riding stance might not be the best option.

        Long rides are incredibly relaxing, causing little stress to the shoulders or the back.

        Due to the catcon's 130mm ground clearance, it touches some steep speed breaks.
