The Chinese corporate group where we find brands such as Hanyang or Xiang Shuai has just launched its new brand in the local market. Traveler 525a touring-style cruiser loaded with equipment and good arguments that can be purchased for the modest price of 26,980 yuan, about 3,470 euros at the exchange rate.
To more than one, its lines are sure to remind you of its older sister that we showed you last year, the Xiang Shuai Traveler It is sold here: MITT.
Xiang Shuai Traveller 525 in detail
If with that first Traveller XS 800 we had serious doubts about whether it would be marketed in Europe (something that finally happened as MITT 808), the same does not happen with this one. Traveller 525, which could be adapted to the current regulations governing the A2 license. Originally it is equipped with a water-cooled twin-cylinder engine, which is known internally under the initials KE525, associated with a 6-speed gearbox
In the Chinese specifications it is stated 54 HP of power and a maximum torque of 50.2 Nm. That is why we mention the possibility that it could be offered on our continent, if it were adapted to the maximum power limit of 48 HP in the current A2. The set is completed with a chassis where the tubular steel structure that forms its chassis and swingarm stands out.
The suspension scheme has a conventional telescopic fork at the front and a rear monoshock. Braking, for its part, uses brake discs on both axles. The assembly rests on 16” wheels, both shod with tires measuring 130 mm at the front and 150 mm at the rear.
Other relevant data are related to its maximum weight, some 210 kilogramsor the height at which the seat is from the command post, 698 mm. The brand announces an average consumption of just 3 l/100 km with an estimated range of around 400 kilometres.
Without a doubt, the equipment it carries is one of its greatest assets, which includes the side cases, front fairing, dual-channel audio system with built-in speakers and a complete TFT instrument panel with navigation functions and different display modes. .
The question at this point is whether the Xiang Shuai Traveler 525 will eventually become a European version under the MITT acronym. While that happens, you can take a look at our latest test with one of the Asian firm’s models:
