Technical Overview
2014 Keeway City 100 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Positioned in Keeway's allround motorcycle lineup, the 2014 Keeway City 100 utilizes a 100 cc (6.1 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 7.4 HP (5.4 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 7.6 Nm (5.6 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 74 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (5,500 rpm) and peak power (7,500 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 City 100 measures 120 kg (265 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.06 HP/kg (16.22 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,230 mm (48.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 12.4-liter (3.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
