What the numbers mean
The 795 mm seat is a middle-of-the-road height: most riders will get the balls of both feet down.
At 184 kg it is a two-person job to move uphill; plan parking before you stop.
The 13 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 120/70-15M/C 56P front and 140/70-14M/C 62P rear. Check that your local shop stocks both before a long trip. Small rims are less widely stocked, so confirm availability locally.

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.
- Liquid cooling adds a coolant level and condition check. Do it when the engine is cold, and never open the radiator cap on a hot engine.
Source and verification
Figures are taken from Yamaha Motor Indonesia, the Indonesian distributor, on 13 November 2026.

Cooling, final drive is inferred from the published layout rather than printed as a separate field.
Wording is quoted as published; spacing and unit symbols are normalised. Specification databases go stale: if a figure here differs from the current distributor page, the distributor page wins, and this sheet records what was published on the verification date.
