2015 Honda Cross Cub Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Honda's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2015 Honda Cross Cub utilizes a 108 cc (6.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 8.2 HP (6 kW) at 8,350 rpm while maximum torque reaches 8.6 Nm (6.3 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 75.9 HP per liter and a 1,850 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,350 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 Cross Cub measures 105 kg (231 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.8 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 764 mm (30.1 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,257 mm (49.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
