250 Master Tempo

2001 Jawa 250 Master Tempo Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Jawa for the allround motorcycle segment, the 2001 Jawa 250 Master Tempo utilizes a 250 cc (15.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 26 HP (19 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 32 Nm (23.6 lb-ft) at 4,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 104 HP per liter and a 2,250 rpm working window between peak torque (4,750 rpm) and peak power (7,000 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 250 Master Tempo measures 132 kg (291 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.2 HP/kg (5.08 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 750 mm (29.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops.
