Cyclone’s RA1000 is a production 996cc sport-cruiser that launched in China on July 8, 2026, at a reported suggested price of CNY 45,988. Its headline specifications include a liquid-cooled 90-degree V-twin rated at 78.5 kW and 95 Nm. Cyclone Motor Europe lists a separate European-market version, but its specifications and equipment should not be treated as proof of availability or identical fitment in other markets.

What is the Cyclone RA1000?

The RA1000 is Cyclone’s production sport-cruiser flagship. IT之家 reported that it followed the RA9 concept by nearly six years and launched in China on July 8, 2026. The report cited a suggested price of CNY 45,988; that is a China launch figure, not a current dealer quote or an international price. IT之家’s launch report attributes technical details to the official announcement.

IT之家 describes a long, 2,300 mm body, an exposed steel-tube trellis and aluminum-composite frame, a single-sided swingarm and a wide rear tire. It also associates the 90-degree V-twin layout with a low center of gravity. Those are the report’s design descriptions, not independent riding or handling findings.

RA1000 specifications by market and source

The China launch report and Cyclone Motor Europe’s regional product page agree on the main engine output, tank capacity and listed seat height. Some details are presented differently or only appear on one market’s page, so use local manufacturer or importer documentation when checking a specific bike.

The China-market figures are from IT之家’s July 8, 2026 report. European-market specifications and the service schedule below are listed on Cyclone Motor Europe’s RA1000 page, which has no publication or revision date shown and was accessed October 4, 2026. The two sources’ different TFT screen sizes and clutch descriptions are reasons to check the documentation for the relevant market rather than combine all listed equipment into a single universal specification.

What the specifications do—and do not—establish

Engine output

Both sources list 78.5 kW at 9,000 rpm and 95 Nm at 6,500 rpm. These are manufacturer- or launch-report-listed figures, not independently measured performance results. They describe peak output and torque, not how the motorcycle delivers power in ordinary riding.

Rear tire and tank discrepancies

The China report gives rear width as 240 mm without a complete profile or rim size; the European page specifies 240/45–17. A generic ChinaMotorbike result surfaced different figures—240/40 R17 and a 22 L tank—but its page could not be independently accessed. The two cited primary-market sources both list a 17 L tank, so the generic result does not establish a different tank capacity. Confirm tire dimensions from the bike’s own sidewall and its local documentation before ordering replacements.

European-market approval and service

Euro 5+ is stated on Cyclone Motor Europe’s page and should be understood as a European-market listing, not as evidence of emissions approval elsewhere. That page gives a first service at 1,000 km and subsequent services every 5,000 km or one year. Treat that schedule as specific to the European listing; follow the service book or local distributor’s requirements for the motorcycle sold in your country.

What to verify before buying

The China launch report establishes a dated launch and suggested price in China. The European product page establishes that Cyclone Motor Europe lists an RA1000 for its market. Neither establishes global availability, dealer coverage or support in every country. Before treating the motorcycle as locally available, ask the relevant distributor or dealer to confirm:

  • Local homologation and emissions approval for the exact market.
  • The locally applicable price, warranty terms and service schedule.
  • Parts availability and expected lead times.
  • The specific bike’s weight convention, tire sizes and installed equipment.

Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date/time indicated and are subject to change. Any price and availability information displayed on Amazon at the time of purchase will apply.
