Engineered by Bajaj for the classic motorcycle segment, the 2015 Bajaj CT 100 pairs a 99.7 cc (6.1 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 8.2 HP (6 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 8.1 Nm (5.9 lb-ft) at 4,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 82.2 HP per liter and a 3,000 rpm working window between peak torque (4,500 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the CT 100 measures 109 kg (240 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (13.29 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,255 mm (49.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 10.5-liter (2.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 90 km/h (56 mph).
