Engineered by DF Motor for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2016 DF Motor 250 Bubba Chopper pairs a 250 cc (15.3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 17 HP (12.4 kW) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 68 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 250 Bubba Chopper measures 190.5 kg (420 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (11.21 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 660 mm (26 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops. The 14.38-liter (3.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 121 km/h (75 mph).
