Jazz 250

2002 Honda Jazz 250 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Honda's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2002 Honda Jazz 250 pairs a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 19.3 HP (14.1 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 20.6 Nm (15.2 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox. With a specific output of 77.5 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (7,000 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 Jazz 250 measures 159 kg (351 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.24 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 720 mm (28.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,545 mm (60.8 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
