Technically, the Café Scrambler is based on the 350 models. The exterior is based heavily on modern café racers and scramblers from Europe.
Zontes has done well in Germany with the 310 stew, which is potent on paper. It powered a total of six models in this country with its 35 hp and 30 Nm. In 2022 he will take his hat, will be replaced by a single with 348 cubic meters and almost 40 hp and will be used in a neo-retro bike in addition to the well-known naked bikes, cruisers and adventure bikes . The Zontes 350 GK combines features of current scramblers and café racers á la Ducati Scrambler or Husqvarna Vitpilen .
Parts in the blender
The Zontes 350 GK makes use of the well-known parts rack from Zontes. The bodywork is based on the rear of the G1 with its pleasing shape and flat plateau. The banana swing arm in KTM strut look looks like it was taken from the G1. The half-height exhaust system has already become famous on the 350 models T1, T2 and R. The sturdy USD fork, which also carries new radially mounted brake calipers, is also used in various 350 models.
The single front disc brake comes from Brembo subsidiary JJuan. The cross-spoke rims already roll in the form shown in the GS-like 350 T2 and are covered in the Zontes 350 GK with tires in the dimensions 120/70 ZR 17 at the front and 160/60 R 17 at the rear. Like all Zontes models, the neo-retro Chinese brakes with an ABS from Bosch.
Prices and availability
Zontes has not yet communicated anything about possible variants, color selection, availability and of course the price of the new 350 GK.
CONCLUSION
The modular principle is almost unbeatable economically and in the case of Zontes, new and completely different models are always coming out. A new engine could open up new markets with A2-compatible performance and the look of the 350 GK is definitely appealing.
