Positioned in Keeway's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2012 Keeway Cruiser 250 relies on a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) air-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 18.1 HP (13.2 kW) at 9,450 rpm while maximum torque reaches 14 Nm (10.3 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 72.7 HP per liter and a 1,950 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (9,450 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 Cruiser 250 measures 172 kg (379 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (9.5 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,550 mm (61 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 115 km/h (71 mph).
