The Fi variant produces 25.15bhp and 23Nm of torque while the carburettor variant churns out 23.7bhp and 23Nm of torque. Both variants further come with a five-speed transmission.
The low power output figures of the Carburettor variant means the lack of top-end grunt compared to its Fi sibling. However, the low and mid-range power output will remain unchanged.
The UM Renegade Commando Classic comes with 41mm hydraulic telescopic front suspension at the front, with twin hydraulic springs at the rear. Braking is handled by 280mm disc brake at the front and a 130mm drum at the rear. The motorcycle rides on 16 and 15-inch wire-spoke wheels at the front and rear, respectively.
In terms of features, the UM Renegade Commando Classic comes with a bulky and muscular fuel tank, rounded headlights, tall windscreen and split seats with a backrest.
