2006 Sym HD 200 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Sym for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2006 Sym HD 200 utilizes a 171.2 cc (10.5 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 15.5 HP (11.3 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 15.4 Nm (11.4 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 90.5 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,000 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 HD 200 measures 135 kg (298 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (8.71 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,385 mm (54.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.55 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 176 km (109 miles) between fill-ups.
