Engineered by Shineray for the cross - motocross motorcycle segment, the 2011 Shineray XY250GY-2 utilizes a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 24.1 HP (17.6 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 22 Nm (16.2 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm. With a specific output of 96.8 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the XY250GY-2 measures 125 kg (276 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.19 HP/kg (5.19 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 955 mm (37.6 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,498 mm (59 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 16-liter (4.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
