2024 Sym HD 300 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
At the heart of the 2024 Sym HD 300 scooter motorcycle, Sym relies on a 278.3 cc (17 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 25.4 HP (18.5 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 26.2 Nm (19.3 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 91.3 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 HD 300 measures 175 kg (386 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.15 HP/kg (6.89 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,505 mm (59.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 10-liter (2.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 127 km/h (79 mph).
