At the heart of the 2025 Kayo KT250 enduro - offroad motorcycle, Kayo utilizes a 224 cc (13.7 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 30.8 HP (22.5 kW) at 9,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 26 Nm (19.2 lb-ft) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 137.5 HP per liter and a 500 rpm working window between peak torque (8,500 rpm) and peak power (9,000 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 KT250 measures 110 kg (243 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.28 HP/kg (3.57 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 940 mm (37 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,480 mm (58.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 7.5-liter (2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
