2010 · Super motard
The 2010 Rieju Tango 50 SM enters the supermotard segment as an accessible and fun-focused machine. This iteration of the Tango lineage, known for its agile handling and urban dexterity, found itself competing directly with other 50cc supermotos of the era, such as the Aprilia SX 50 and Derbi Senda DRD 50 SM. Designed primarily for younger riders or those seeking a lightweight, nimble commuter, the Tango 50 SM aimed to provide a spirited introduction to two-wheeled motorcycling with distinct supermotard styling.
At its heart, the Tango 50 SM is powered by a 50.00 ccm (3.05 cubic inches) single-cylinder, two-stroke engine. This compact powerplant, characteristic of many 50cc machines, prioritizes responsiveness and low-end torque suitable for urban environments. While not built for outright speed, its two-stroke nature offers a lively power delivery within its displacement class. The motorcycle tips the scales at a manageable 101.0 kg (222.7 pounds), contributing significantly to its agile feel and ease of maneuverability. This low weight, combined with the efficient engine, ensures a playful riding experience.
Riding the Tango 50 SM offers a distinct supermotard experience. Its upright stance and wide handlebars provide excellent leverage for quick direction changes, ideal for navigating congested streets or tight turns. The seat height, at 830 mm (32.7 inches) at its lowest setting, positions the rider comfortably for a commanding view of the road while maintaining good ground reach for most stature riders. The lightweight chassis and responsive suspension, typical of the supermotard category, contribute to its flickable nature, making it an engaging ride for short to medium distances.
The Rieju Tango 50 SM 2010 primarily targets new riders, teenagers, or individuals seeking an economical and entertaining urban transport solution. Its 50cc engine makes it accessible to those with limited license categories in many regions, serving as an excellent entry point into motorcycling. For riders who appreciate the distinctive aesthetics and nimble handling of a supermotard in a small displacement package, the Tango 50 SM delivers a straightforward and enjoyable proposition, perfect for daily commutes or weekend jaunts around town.
