Engineered by CPI for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2013 CPI X-Large 250 utilizes a 249.7 cc (15.2 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 16.6 HP (12.1 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 20 Nm (14.8 lb-ft) at 4,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 66.5 HP per liter and a 3,000 rpm working window between peak torque (4,000 rpm) and peak power (7,000 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 X-Large 250 measures 150 kg (331 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (9.04 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,530 mm (60.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 11-liter (2.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 130 km/h (81 mph).
