Positioned in Keeway's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2013 Keeway V-Blade 250i features a 248.9 cc (15.2 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 17.3 HP (12.6 kW) at 8,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 18 Nm (13.3 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 69.5 HP per liter and a 3,250 rpm working window between peak torque (5,500 rpm) and peak power (8,750 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 V-Blade 250i measures 170 kg (375 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (9.83 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 688 mm (27.1 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,530 mm (60.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 13.5-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
