What the weight numbers tell you

Using a model-level wet weight comparison, the Yamaha Vity is lighter than about 57% of 129 Yamaha scooters with compatible weight data.
A full tank is not weightless: the 1.45 US gal (5.5 L) listed capacity works out to approximately 9 lb (4.1 kg) of gasoline. This is an estimate rather than a Yamaha curb-weight specification.
The calculated power-to-weight figure is 3.55 hp per 100 lb across years with compatible data. It shows how much engine output is available relative to the bike’s mass.

Yamaha Vity weight FAQ

How much does the Yamaha Vity weigh?

Are all Yamaha Vity model years the same weight?

The supplied comparable weight values do not show a meaningful change across the 2009-2017 years covered here.

What does a full tank of gas weigh on the Yamaha Vity?

A full tank works out to about 9 lb (4.1 kg) from the listed 1.45 US gal (5.5 L) capacity. Actual fuel density varies slightly, so treat it as a practical estimate.

What does the Yamaha Vity weigh with a 180 lb rider?

Is the Yamaha Vity strong for its weight?

The calculated range is 3.55 hp per 100 lb. This ratio is usually more informative for acceleration comparisons than horsepower alone. That places it around the 40th percentile within the compatible Yamaha scooter power-to-weight comparison.

What is the estimated Yamaha Vity weight with a full tank of gas?

Using the listed dry weight plus the calculated fuel mass, the estimated weight with a full tank is 238.3 lb (108.1 kg). That still may not equal official curb weight because dry-weight definitions can exclude other fluids or equipment.

What is the Yamaha Vity dry-to-wet weight difference?

Available years with both measurements show about 13.2 lb (6 kg) added between dry and ready-to-ride figures. Fuel explains part of it, while oil, coolant and specification definitions can explain the rest.

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

Available data gives 2.8 lb-ft per 100 lb. That ratio helps explain how strong the engine is relative to the bike’s mass, especially at lower speeds.
