Built around Xingyue's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2011 Xingyue XY260T-4 utilizes a 257 cc (15.7 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 14.8 HP (10.8 kW) at 6,500 rpm. With a specific output of 57.6 HP per liter, the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the XY260T-4 measures 180 kg (397 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.16 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 720 mm (28.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,600 mm (63 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
