Overview

The Yamaha C3 C Cubed is a scooter produced for 2011. Its 49 cm³ engine is a liquid-cooled, SOHC, four-stroke single with three valves, making 4 Nm of torque at 6500 rpm; the motorcycle weighs 90 kg.

The torque peak arrives once the engine is revving, while the one-speed automatic gearbox and centrifugal clutch take care of shifting and takeoff. A 734 mm seat height makes reaching the ground easier, and the 90 kg weight helps keep low-speed maneuvering manageable. The belt-and-reduction final drive avoids chain cleaning and adjustment; the 4.5 L tank means fuel stops will come relatively often.
