2020 Lifan SS2 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2020 Lifan SS2 sport motorcycle, Lifan features a 223 cc (13.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 16.8 HP (12.2 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 16.5 Nm (12.2 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 75.3 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 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 SS2 measures 135 kg (298 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.04 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 1,330 mm (52.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.3 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 565 km (351 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 110 km/h (68 mph).
