That's a good point, but I can still see the drum on the back wheel. The stats below state front and rear discs. Something is wrong.


Why would they make a 400cc M50 anyway? The bike is a decent size. At only 30 lbs lighter, it will be underpowered big time.

I have seen many errors in the BikeZ site. I am sure it is a drum.

They may make it 400 cc to satisfy incremental licensing requirements in some countries. Or, possibly for environmental reasons. Could even be for taxation; some places may charge extra tax or registration fees based on displacement.
