2013 CF Moto Cruz Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around CF Moto's touring motorcycle platform, the 2013 CF Moto Cruz relies on a 244 cc (14.9 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 13.4 HP (9.8 kW) at 6,600 rpm while maximum torque reaches 15 Nm (11.1 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 54.9 HP per liter and a 600 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (6,600 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

On the scales, the Cruz measures 166 kg (366 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.39 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 686 mm (27 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,490 mm (58.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 16.5-liter (4.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 95 km/h (59 mph).
