Yamaha Ray ZR 125 Price in Dewas

I've seen Honda Shine Sp 125 and other 125 bikes but this scooter is capable of beating them all in all aspects, being the lightest scooter in the market when you ride at around 70-80 you feel like flying. Mileage is something I believe is confusing and one department where bikes have some standard, for example, I brought this scooter on July 1st week. It was giving me roughly 52kmpl at that time but after the first servicing, it has marginally increased to 53. But that's the actual confusing case of this scooter coming into the act, if you ride with 2 pillions for 10km the mileage drastically decreases, and it comes back to 53 again after when I ride alone for 2-3 days. The action repeats like that. So basically if you want better mileage you can only drive alone and on highway roads as well. Rough and off-roading also impacts the mileage. It's my honest review after having owned this scooter for almost 3-4 months.

About the Reviewer

Limited Speed and Power: Not suitable for long highway rides or carrying heavy loads due to lower engine power.
Safety: Smaller wheels and lighter frames can be less stable than motorcycles, especially on uneven roads or at high speeds.
Weather Dependency: Exposure to weather elements can make riding uncomfortable in rain or extreme cold.
Storage Limitations: While they have some storage, it’s limited compared to cars.
In conclusion, owning a scooter offers a practical, cost-effective, and enjoyable mode of transportation, particularly well-suited for urban commuting. Its ease of use, affordability, and fuel efficiency are significant advantages, although it comes with some limitations in terms of speed, power, and weather protection.

About the Reviewer

Yamahas are excellent bikes. I have owned many both on the Indian subcontinent and the U.S. But I have never understood Yamaha India's penchant (and marketing oversight) for not accessorizing their bikes and scooters. These days it is very important and could very well be a competitive edge for others not to buy other vehicles but yamaha.
With the advent of the tvs’s ntorq 125, to use this example, it set new standards and increased sales. Yet yamaha couldn't even begin to match the new features and accessories that made this model so popular at the same price!
The upside of this scooter is great ride ability, turning, acceleration, smoothness, quietness, responsiveness, seating comfort, and fuel economy, which I get from 48--51 km/l.
But yamaha, at the same price as the ntorq, couldn’t even begin to match, for example, the ntorq.
No handle brakes, lock for safety, so the scooter rolls if not on an absolutely level surface. And already my new scooter has fallen over once.
• no rear tyre mud cover to prevent mud from throwing on pillion.
• no clock.
• no bluetooth connectivity.
• no modern switches.
• no led headlight and turn signals.
• no under-the-seat light.
• no turn signal warning buzzer.
• no four-way flasher.
• no 12” rear wheel.
• no attractive silencer.
• no ladies foot stand.
• no storage in front apron.
• no adequate foot room for tall drivers.
• no brightly lit instrument cluster.
• no attractive body stickers. (what does “standard gear” mean and why would you consider this appealing?
Further, there are also these issues:
1. With a pillion the bike felt less stable, the total passenger weight overcomes the light weight of the
scooter itself.
2. Front disc brake is spongy
3. Overly chunky design could be more streamlined.
4. Seat fits sloppy, not well designed.
5. Need better tyre design with better traction, certainly and ideally with bigger wheels.
6. Stop & start system mostly a nuisance, as engine turns off too quickly when having no intention for long
stopping wait period. I just usually turn it off.
If one is not interested in accessories and features, then it is a good city scooter, especially for its great fuel economy and its light weight, which provides ease of handling and faster speed. Other than this, better look elsewhere.
