Engineered by Daelim for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2014 Daelim RoadSport 250 utilizes a 246.9 cc (15.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 25 HP (18.2 kW) at 9,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 19 Nm (14 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 101.3 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (9,000 rpm), 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 RoadSport 250 measures 158 kg (348 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.16 HP/kg (6.32 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,380 mm (54.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 15-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
