Coach 250

1996 Fantic Coach 250 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 1996 Fantic Coach 250 trial motorcycle, Fantic pairs a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 16 HP (11.7 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 28.4 Nm (20.9 lb-ft) at 3,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 64.3 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (3,000 rpm) and peak power (5,500 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 Coach 250 measures 86 kg (190 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.19 HP/kg (5.38 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 700 mm (27.6 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops.
