Built around Shineray's sport motorcycle platform, the 2011 Shineray XY-250 5A relies on a 232.6 cc (14.2 cu in) oil & air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 16.1 HP (11.7 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 18 Nm (13.3 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm. With a specific output of 69.2 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 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 XY-250 5A measures 150 kg (331 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (9.32 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,375 mm (54.1 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.
