Scorpio


WIN THE RAT RACE
You don’t need twenty large in the bank just to buy a crisp new scoot that will get you to work with a few grins along the way. And here’s proof.
Scorpio’s delicious simplicity equates to maximum value for a very attainable price point, with a strong, reliable four-stroke SOHC engine that – being a Yamaha – you know is going to last.
STING IN ITS TAIL
Scorpio is pleasantly responsive at the go-tube too. And together with the comfortable suspension, disc front brake and light, neutral-handling chassis, it adds up to a highly manoeuvrable commuting package that’s surprisingly good fun.
What’s more, a Scorpion would be a better learner bike than the majority of second hand bikes, and instead of 20 large, all you need is four and a half(+ORC and dealer costs)!
FEATURES
♦ The Scorpio formula starts with a newly-developed four-stroke engine that’s strong, economical and stone reliable.
♦ The lightweight chassis, super responsive steering and easy-to-use controls make the Scorpio a simple, no fuss commuter that’s cheap, efficient, and most of all, fun.
♦ Scorpio mounts a 223cc air cooled 4-stroke SOHC single cylinder that boasts user friendliness, responsiveness and enough speed for freeway travel.
♦ No fuss ultra reliable electric starting comes with rock solid kick-start back up.
♦ A 13.5 litre fuel tank capacity maximises range between stops, and with Scorpio’s frugal appetite for fossil fuels, you’ll be surprised at how far you get.
♦ Low, 770mm seat height allows most riders to put both feet on the ground, inspiring maximum confidence and allowing easy car park manoeuvrability.
♦ Incredibly low, 124kg dry weight contributes significantly to Scorpio’s easily handling, and superb low-speed agility.
♦ Twin piston front disc and sealed rear drum brakes provide powerful stopping control in all conditions.
♦ Not just a weekday commuter. Comfortable pillion seating and footpegs mean Scorpio adapts to your lifestyle.
♦ Single-sided exhaust emits a satisfying note without being overly noisy, and features chromed heat shield.
♦ If Scorpio’s blend of style with substance and economy aren’t enough to float your boat… ask the price!
