At the heart of the 2007 Jinlun JL 250-5 custom - cruiser motorcycle, Jinlun utilizes a 233.8 cc (14.3 cu in) air-cooled twin, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 15 Nm (11.1 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 53.0 x 53.0 mm (2.1 x 2.1 inches) with a 9.2:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the JL 250-5 measures 152 kg (335 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,450 mm (57.1 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 10-liter (2.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.8 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 357 km (222 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 137 km/h (85 mph).
