2013 Hyosung TE450S Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Hyosung for the atv motorcycle segment, the 2013 Hyosung TE450S relies on a 449 cc (27.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 52 HP (38 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 47.6 Nm (35.1 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 115.8 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 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 TE450S measures 211.8 kg (467 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.25 HP/kg (4.07 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 35 mm (1.4 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,265 mm (49.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7.87-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
