2015 Dafra Maxsym 400i Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Dafra's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2015 Dafra Maxsym 400i relies on a 399.3 cc (24.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 33.3 HP (24.3 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 32 Nm (23.6 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 83.4 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (5,500 rpm) and peak power (7,500 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 Maxsym 400i measures 229 kg (505 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.15 HP/kg (6.88 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 755 mm (29.7 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,555 mm (61.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 14.7-liter (3.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
