What the numbers mean
The 764 mm seat is a middle-of-the-road height: most riders will get the balls of both feet down.
At 132 kg (CBS), 132 kg (ABS) & 133 kg (RoadSync) it is manageable at walking pace but heavy enough to notice on a slope.
The 8.1 L tank is large enough for weekend distances without planning every fuel stop. The manufacturer does not publish a consumption figure, so this page does not quote a range.
Tyres are 110/70 - 14 M/C Tubeless front and 130/70 - 13 M/C Tubeless rear. Check that your local shop stocks both before a long trip.

Ownership and maintenance notes
- The V-belt and rollers are the parts that change the feel of a CVT scooter. Inspect them at the interval in the owner's manual, and sooner if acceleration flattens or the engine revs without matching speed.
- Engine oil and the air filter do most of the work in keeping a small scooter consistent. Check the oil level cold, on level ground, and use the grade listed for the model.
- Air-cooled engines rely on clean fins and a clear path for air. Wash the fins gently, and do not let mud or a loose cover block them in traffic.
