Yamaha Indonesia has launched the updated Yamaha
Fino 125 with wide tubeless tyres, and new colours in the country.
The 14-inch alloy wheels are shod with tubeless
tyres measuring 80/80-14M/C 43P at the front, and 100/70-14M/C 51P at the rear.
In case of punctures, tubeless tyres lose air slower than tubed tyres and thus
can handle punctures much better. Other than the tyres, the scooter is the same
as its predecessor. The Yamaha Fino 125 Grande costs IDR 18,500,000, while the
Fino Sporty and Fino Premium come with IDR 17,300,000 price tag, both OTR
Jakarta. Fino Premium comes with three new colour options, “Choco Caramel”
(brown), “Red Berry” (red) and “White Latte” (white).
Powering the new Yamaha Fino 125 is a 125cc single
cylinder SOHC engine with Blue Core technology and fuel injection. Yamaha
claims that the Blue Core makes the scooter 50 percent more efficient. The mill
produces 9.52 PS of power at 8,000 rpm and 9.6 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. The
engine pairs with a V-belt automatic transmission. The Grande variant comes
with LED headlight (the other two variants get halogen headlamp); and SSS (Stop
& Smart System), which switches off the engine after idling for five
seconds. The engine comes back to life on turning the throttle.
The Fino 125 also features AKS (Advanced Key
System). The key has a dual function of locating scooter at parking lots and
opening the main locks as well. Another feature, “Smart Lock System” can help
lock the brakes when parking on an incline. The scooter employs telescopic
front fork and rear monoshock for suspension. Brakes include disc at the front
and a drum at the rear. The scooter comes with 8.7 litres of underseat storage
and a 4.2-litre fuel tank.
