The Ronin is powered by a 225.9 cc, single-cylinder engine that is air-oil cooled. It produces 20 bhp at 7,750 rpm and a peak torque output of 19.93 Nm at 3,750 rpm. It comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox that gets slip-and-assist functionality.
The engine is quite smooth in the lower-rev range and delivers power in a linear fashion. However, as the revs climb, the vibrations start to creep in. The gearbox is quite a smooth unit and the clutch action is also very light. Ronin is a nice city bike because of the low-end punch that the engine has but it starts running out of breath on highways.
