VR200X

2014 Hartford VR200X Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Hartford for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2014 Hartford VR200X features a 197 cc (12 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 19.2 HP (14 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10.9 Nm (8 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 97.5 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (7,500 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 VR200X measures 139 kg (306 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.14 HP/kg (7.24 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 860 mm (33.9 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,375 mm (54.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
