2019
The 2019 Keeway Cruiser 250 i offers an accessible entry point into the world of cruiser motorcycles. While not directly descended from a long line of Keeway cruisers, it represents their effort to capture a segment dominated by brands like Honda with their Rebel series.

With a fuel capacity of 13.50 litres (3.57 US gallons), riders can expect reasonable range between fill-ups, suitable for shorter trips and commuting.
The low seat height of 688 mm (27.1 inches) makes the Cruiser 250 i approachable for riders of various sizes, contributing to confidence at stops and during slow-speed maneuvers. The riding position is typical of a cruiser, with forward-set footpegs and a relaxed reach to the handlebars. This configuration is designed for comfortable cruising, though longer rides may reveal the limitations of the relatively small engine's power output.
The Keeway Cruiser 250 i 2019 is geared towards novice riders and those seeking an affordable and stylish cruiser. It's a good option for individuals who appreciate the cruiser style and are primarily focused on shorter rides and city commuting.
