Built around Jincheng's sport motorcycle platform, the 2004 Jincheng JC 250-3 relies on a 238 cc (14.5 cu in) air-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 20.3 HP (14.8 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 85.3 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the JC 250-3 measures 146 kg (322 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.14 HP/kg (7.19 kg per horsepower). The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.3 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 565 km (351 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 110 km/h (68 mph).
