2020 Italika FT 250 TS Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around Italika's sport motorcycle platform, the 2020 Italika FT 250 TS pairs a 250 cc (15.3 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 18 HP (13.1 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 16.6 Nm (12.2 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm. With a specific output of 72 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,500 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 FT 250 TS measures 124.5 kg (274 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.14 HP/kg (6.92 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance.
