Engineered by Honda for the trial motorcycle segment, the 2025 Honda Montesa Cota 4RT260R features a 259 cc (15.8 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 78.0 x 54.2 mm (3.1 x 2.1 inches) with a 10.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Montesa Cota 4RT260R measures 78 kg (172 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 650 mm (25.6 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,326 mm (52.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 1.9-liter (0.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
