Built around Keeway's allround motorcycle platform, the 2024 Keeway Cafe Racer X 152 relies on a 149 cc (9.1 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.3 HP (8.2 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 11.1 Nm (8.2 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 75.8 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (8,000 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 Cafe Racer X 152 measures 108 kg (238 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (9.56 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, combined with a 1,245 mm (49 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 12.1-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 108 km/h (67 mph).
