Engineered by Puma for the cross - motocross motorcycle segment, the 2011 Puma Rottaler 250 Cross utilizes a 250 cc (15.3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 21.5 HP (15.7 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 86 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Rottaler 250 Cross measures 123 kg (271 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.17 HP/kg (5.72 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 910 mm (35.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control. The 8.5-liter (2.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 121 km/h (75 mph).
