Engineered by CF Moto for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2012 CF Moto Jet Max 250 utilizes a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 22.1 HP (16.2 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 21 Nm (15.5 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 88.8 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,000 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 Jet Max 250 measures 200 kg (441 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (9.05 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 718 mm (28.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops.
