Yamaha Bolt C-spec
The Yamaha Bolt C-spec has a top speed of Approximately 175 km/h (estimated; not officially rated for top speed), produces 54 hp and weighs 252 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
यामाहा बोल्ट (जिसे कुछ बाजारों में XV950 के नाम से जाना जाता है) को 2013 में एक आधुनिक बॉबर-स्टाइल क्रूजर के रूप में पेश किया गया था, जो एयर-कूल्ड 942cc वी-ट्विन इंजन पर बनाया गया था, जो क्लासिक अमेरिकी कस्टम मोटरसाइकिल संस्कृति से प्रेरणा लेता है। C-Spec वेरिएंट को कैफे रेसर-प्रभावित ट्रिम लेवल के रूप में पेश किया गया था, जिसमें एक सोलो सीट, रियर काउल और ब्लैक-आउट स्टाइलिंग एलिमेंट्स शामिल थे, जो रेट्रो-स्पोर्ट एस्थेटिक की तलाश करने वाले शहरी राइडर्स को आकर्षित करने के लिए अपील करते हैं। यह सस्ती कीमत पर फ़ैक्टरी कस्टम स्टाइल की पेशकश करने के लिए उल्लेखनीय बन गया है, और इसकी हैंडलिंग, टॉर्क डिलीवरी और न्यूनतम डिज़ाइन के लिए इसने वफादार फॉलोइंग बनाए रखी है।

खरीदारों को क्या पता होना चाहिए
Rock-Solid Engine Reliability
The Bolt's 942cc air-cooled V-twin engine is known for exceptional long-term reliability with minimal mechanical issues reported even beyond 30,000 miles. Regular oil changes are virtually all the maintenance most owners report needing.
Strong Resale Value
The Bolt C-Spec holds its value notably well compared to other entry-level cruisers, often retaining 70-80% of its value after two years. Its popularity as a starter bike with a premium feel keeps used demand consistently high.
Watch for Heat Issues
The air-cooled engine radiates significant heat toward the rider's right leg in stop-and-go traffic, which is the most common complaint among owners. Inspect used models for any aftermarket heat shields, as many riders add them as a practical upgrade.

प्रयुक्त क्रेता समीक्षा
"A genuinely sorted bobber that rewards patient used buyers considerably."
$5,500-$7,800 usedThe Bolt C-Spec is Yamaha doing bobber right — proper air-cooled 942cc V-twin, sensible ergonomics, and build quality that shames half the American competition at twice the price. The C-Spec trim adds a small bikini fairing and side-mount license plate that genuinely looks factory rather than bolted-on afterthought. Used examples hold up remarkably well; these engines are bulletproof if the previous owner did basic maintenance. Check for valve clearance service history — it's the one thing lazy owners skip. Riding it honestly, the torque delivery is smooth and usable rather than theatrical. Highway cruising around 65-70mph sits in its happy place, but don't expect interstate comfort on long hauls — the seat gets punishing past 90 minutes. Suspension is firm for a cruiser, which actually benefits handling but communicates every road imperfection directly to your spine. Used pricing has stabilized nicely. Avoid anything with cheap aftermarket exhausts suggesting hard riding history. The stock pipes look and sound better than most owners realize.
