Engineered by Vento for the touring motorcycle segment, the 2006 Vento V-Thunder utilizes a 250 cc (15.3 cu in) air-cooled twin, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 24.1 HP (17.6 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 15.7 Nm (11.6 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 96.4 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (8,000 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 V-Thunder measures 170.1 kg (375 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.14 HP/kg (7.06 kg per horsepower). The 12.98-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.36 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 386 km (240 miles) between fill-ups.
