Engineered by Linhai for the trial motorcycle segment, the 2005 Linhai 200 GY pairs a 196.9 cc (12 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 18.5 HP (13.5 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 15 Nm (11.1 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm. With a specific output of 94 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (9,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
