Review: Yamaha Mio i 125S
The Mio’s hold on the public’s collective consciousness can be attributed to the scooter line’s immense popularity, thanks to its ease of use, fuel efficiency, style, and reliability. The M-centric design (seen in the front face and headlight) combines with the more subdued colors to form a stylish and classy aesthetic. The narrow step board doesn’t really allow for standing up on the scooter to better address bumpy situations, while the underseat storage isn’t big enough to accommodate a large-sized full-face helmet. Though the scooter’s engine might not put out an astounding amount of grunt, it’s definitely packing enough usable power for daily errands.
My daily commute averages out at around 12km, and a good chunk of my time is dedicated to sitting idly in traffic or trying to filter in between moving cars. I hypothesized that the culprits behind the scoot’s efficiency despite my aggressive riding were the Start & Stop System and Yamaha’s Blue Core tech.
And since I’m used to riding manual motorcycles, I actually thought I’d somehow managed to stall an automatic scooter the first few times when the Start & Stop System kicked in. I experimented with the system a bit and learned that the engine will automatically shut off after five seconds of idling.
For daily rides to school and late night runs to the local minimart, the Mio is a practical choice.
The 94kg wet weight means you won’t be sweating it out trying to maneuver the bike in heavy traffic, and the 1,260mm wheelbase makes it easy to fit in between cars and into tight parking spaces. Aside from the passive benefit of the Start & Stop System, the Mio also encourages you to actively save fuel with the green ‘Eco’ light that comes on when you’re riding at an economical pace. There’s a little button on the key that, when pressed, makes the scooter blink its lights and beep a couple times.
My back didn’t have to go through rigorous exercise on a cramped sport bike every morning, and my daily rides suddenly became much more chill.
