Yamaha Vity 125 weight overview

WHAT THIS MEANS

Its low overall mass should be most noticeable off the throttle: moving it by hand, backing out of a parking space and managing stop-start riding should take less effort than on a heavy road bike. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.

What the weight numbers tell you

Using a model-level dry weight comparison, the Yamaha Vity 125 is heavier than about 56.4% of 47 Yamaha scooters with compatible weight data.
The listed fuel tank capacity is 1.45 US gal (5.5 L). A full tank of gasoline is estimated to weigh about 9 lb (4.1 kg), which helps explain part of the difference between dry and ready-to-ride mass.
Where both power and weight are available, the model works out to 3.68 hp per 100 lb. This makes cross-size comparisons more meaningful than raw horsepower by itself.

Yamaha Vity 125 weight FAQ

What is the Yamaha Vity 125 dry weight?

The available dry weight is 233.7 lb (106 kg). Actual ready-to-ride weight will be higher after fuel and operating fluids are added.

Is the Yamaha Vity 125 lighter or heavier than other Yamaha scooters?

Weight is broadly typical for the category, landing around the 56th percentile in this model-level Yamaha comparison.

How much does a full tank add to the Yamaha Vity 125?

Based on the supplied 1.45 US gal (5.5 L) tank capacity, the gasoline itself weighs about 9 lb (4.1 kg) when full. This helps explain part of the difference between dry and ready-to-ride mass.

What is the combined Yamaha Vity 125 and rider weight?

Using the model’s representative dry weight and a 180 lb rider, the combined bike-and-rider mass is about 413.7 lb (187.6 kg) before riding gear, luggage or a passenger.

What is the Yamaha Vity 125 power-to-weight ratio?

Available model-year data produces 3.68 hp per 100 lb. It shows engine output relative to motorcycle mass rather than just quoting peak horsepower. That places it around the 31st percentile within the compatible Yamaha scooter power-to-weight comparison.

Is the listed Yamaha Vity 125 weight ready to ride?

The published usable figure is dry, not curb weight. A simple dry-plus-full-fuel estimate is 242.7 lb (110.1 kg), but that still is not a substitute for an official wet/curb specification.

How heavy is the Yamaha Vity 125 after filling the fuel tank?

Using the listed dry weight plus the calculated fuel mass, the estimated weight with a full tank is 242.7 lb (110.1 kg). That still may not equal official curb weight because dry-weight definitions can exclude other fluids or equipment.

What is the Yamaha Vity 125 torque per 100 lb of bike weight?

Where compatible torque and weight figures are available, the model works out to 2.9 lb-ft per 100 lb. This gives more context than torque alone because it relates engine twist to the mass it has to move.

How many cc does the Yamaha Vity 125 have per pound?

The available figures work out to 0.53 cc per lb. This is not a performance rating, but it is a useful way to compare engine size against total motorcycle mass.
