Yamaha Saluto 125
The Yamaha Saluto 125 has a top speed of 95 km/h (estimated), produces 8.2 hp and weighs 111 kg. Motoryk rates it 6.5/10.
Yamaha Saluto 125 був представлений в Індії в 2016 році як приміський мотоцикл, орієнтований на бюджетних міських гонщиків, які прагнуть до економії палива та надійності. Він був побудований на простій, перевіреній платформі, що поділяє ДНК з Yamaha Alba, і розміщений нижче YBR 125 в лінійці Yamaha India. Saluto був примітний своєю орієнтацією на низькі експлуатаційні витрати та простоту обслуговування, хоча врешті-решт він був припинений, оскільки Yamaha оптимізувала свій індійський портфоліо приміських автомобілів.

Що повинні знати покупці
Proven Engine Reliability
The Saluto 125 uses a proven single-cylinder air-cooled engine known for low maintenance needs and long service life when oil changes are kept regular. It's a solid daily commuter choice in Asian markets with a strong reliability track record.

"Boring, reliable, and cheap to run — commuter perfection if priced right."
$800-$1,500 usedThe Saluto 125 is Yamaha's budget commuter play for emerging markets, and honestly, it shows. It's not exciting, but that's not the point. The 125cc air-cooled single is bulletproof if maintained properly — these engines genuinely last forever with regular oil changes. Used examples with 20,000-30,000km are still perfectly viable if the previous owner wasn't completely negligent. Check the chain, sprockets, and brake pads first; owners on tight budgets tend to defer that maintenance. Riding it is exactly what you'd expect — relaxed, predictable, utterly undemanding. It won't embarrass you in city traffic, but don't expect highway confidence above 80kmh. The seat comfort is surprisingly decent for a budget bike, though the suspension is tuned soft and gets overwhelmed by potholes under two-up riding. Parts availability is generally solid in markets where it was sold, which matters enormously for long-term ownership costs. At the right price, it makes sense as a reliable daily hack. Pay no more than mid-range used pricing and you'll have minimal regrets.
