2001 Yamaha YP 250 Majesty - Majesty A Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2001 Yamaha YP 250 Majesty - Majesty A scooter motorcycle, Yamaha utilizes a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 21 HP (15.3 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 22 Nm (16.2 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 84.3 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 YP 250 Majesty - Majesty A measures 156 kg (344 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.43 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 700 mm (27.6 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 700 mm (27.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
