Engineered by Bajaj for the touring motorcycle segment, the 2005 Bajaj Eliminator pairs a 174 cc (10.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 17 HP (12.4 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 97.7 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Eliminator measures 157 kg (346 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (9.24 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,460 mm (57.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 121 km/h (75 mph).
