Shop parts for a 2015 Cobra CX50SR Dirt Bike.
The 2015 Cobra CX50SR marks the eighth year of the Standard Race platform, delivering a thoroughly proven 50cc competition machine. The air-cooled 50cc two-stroke in the competition chassis continues its role serving young riders at the entry level of 50cc competition. Eight years of SR development have produced a machine with well-understood maintenance requirements, reliable parts availability, and consistent performance characteristics. The SR’s value proposition — full competition performance at the most accessible price point — is best realized when the machine is maintained consistently. Consistent pre-event fastener verification is the lowest-cost, highest-return maintenance investment available to a young competitor at any level.
