Engineered by CCM for the super motard motorcycle segment, the 2008 CCM X-TR250 features a 248 cc (15.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 23.6 HP (17.2 kW) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through chain final drive. With a specific output of 95.2 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 X-TR250 measures 113 kg (249 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.21 HP/kg (4.79 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 925 mm (36.4 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,505 mm (59.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 8.6-liter (2.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
