What the Rhino Motorcycles filings say about the engines
Every Rhino Motorcycles filing on record is carburetted — 7 certificate rows, 2008 to 2011, and not one fuel-injected engine among them.
The engine codes on Rhino Motorcycles' test vehicles —just one across the filings — are led by 2V49FMM. The code is stamped on the crankcase and is a better search term than the badge.
5 of the 7 filings are 50-state (California-legal); the other 2 were 49-state only.
Rated power on the record is 13 kW (about 17 hp).
The vehicle builders named are Jiangmen Qipai Motorcycle Co., Ltd. and Chongqing Lifan Industry (Group) Co., Ltd. — the chassis and the engine do not always share a source.
Each figure is read straight off the EPA certificate rows; the per-family pages below carry the full breakdown for every engine family.
