2014 Keeway RK III 150 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Keeway's sport motorcycle platform, the 2014 Keeway RK III 150 relies on a 149.4 cc (9.1 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.8 HP (8.6 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 12 Nm (8.9 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 79 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,500 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 RK III 150 measures 128 kg (282 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (10.85 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 1,285 mm (50.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 16-liter (4.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
