Built around AJS's naked motorcycle platform, the 2016 AJS TN25 250 utilizes a 223 cc (13.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 16.1 HP (11.7 kW) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 72.2 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the TN25 250 measures 134 kg (295 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.32 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,340 mm (52.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 12.5-liter (3.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
