At the heart of the 2006 CF Moto V3 sport motorcycle, CF Moto relies on a 250 cc (15.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 18 HP (13.1 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 16.5 Nm (12.2 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 72 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the V3 measures 177.8 kg (392 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (9.88 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 1,473 mm (58 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 12.11-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.13 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 387 km (240 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 129 km/h (80 mph).
