Yamaha Scooters Price in Nepal
Yamaha RAY Z
Yamaha RAY Z has a sporty look and feel with a smoked-finish visor for a motorcycle-like image which makes RAY Z more stylish. A carbon fiber patterned seat cover material, and dynamic coloring and graphics provide a character that expresses “Aggressive Sportiness” which strengthens its claim to be the sportiest scooter in Nepal. The overall design of scooter is satisfactory and the graphics of the scooter is neat which in all together provides decent looks to the scooter.
The new model of the RAY Z adopts air-cooled 4-stroke 113 cc engine with Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) that delivers smooth start-up acceleration and good pickup along with a great fuel economy. The engine is based on Yamaha’s ideal engine concept of “Blue Core” to give the sporty ride with good fuel mileage. The engine intake/exhaust system and new transmission settings have been optimized for performance in the traffic which is good considering road conditions of Nepal. Yamaha Ray Z power delivery characteristics make it even easier to handle for riders. The riding is especially good in very low-speed and low rpm range to ensure ease and more confidence for beginner riders.
In comparison to Honda Dio, Dio generates 1 BPH of power and 0.8 of torque more than Yamaha RAY Z. But Ray Z is able to obtain the top speed of 86 kmph which is 3 kmph more than the top speed obtained from Honda Dio due to its higher engine displacement. Both Honda Dio and Yamaha Ray Z consist of body-mounted headlight which provides adequate visibility at night. However, the engine of Honda is more refined and smooth than Yamaha RAY Z. Therefore, if you consider engine refinement as a major factor for buying a scooter than you can add Rs. 2000 more and own a Honda Dio else Yamaha RAY Z can still be a right scooter for you.

Yamaha RAY ZR
The Ray ZR was developed around the concept of “Next-Generation Real Boy’s Scooter”. The design realizes the “Real Boy’s Scooter” concept by balancing the deeply-sculpted and powerful front mask, effortlessly-layered straight lines, and tail surrounds accentuated with a sense of speed. The Ray ZR comes with two eye-catching colors for its disk brake model to fulfill the needs of trend-conscious young riders. It is also available in two different colors for its drum brake variant.
The Cygnus Ray ZR is powered by an air-cooled 4-stroke, SOHC, 2-valve 113cc “Blue Core” engine with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) unit. It features a lightweight body with glamorous design and offers user-friendliness. The main features of this scooter include an engine with high combustion efficiency to offer among the best fuel efficiency in its class at around 66kmpl, plenty of storage space, newly designed instrument cluster with excellent readability even at night and tubeless tires. The new model actively adopts the latest trends among young people. It takes on a new exterior design characterized by a sense of dynamism and layered forms that gives a fresh look like no other scooter before and expresses the strength of a well-trained physique.
Safety is one of the major things that are to be considered while purchasing a two-wheeler machine and the option of disc brake adds a huge advantage to the Yamaha Ray ZR. The disc brake with MRF tires in Yamaha RAY ZR provides adequate grip in case of hard braking. But the features such as USB charging slot and passing light are still missing in Yamaha Ray ZR. Honda scooters consist of Combi Braking System (CBS) which ensures the safety of riding by reducing the braking distance. Even though if you purchase the disc brake variant of Yamaha Ray ZR, it does not provide same braking bite like that of Honda scooters. So, if you want to own a scooter which consists of the improved braking system than you can go ahead and buy a Honda Dio or Aviator.
