Overview

The 2021 Yamaha SCR 950 is a naked motorcycle from the SCR family, produced from 2017 to 2021. Its 942 cm³ four-stroke V-Twin makes 54 hp (40 kW) and 79.5 Nm of torque at 3,000 rpm, giving it substantial low-rpm pull.

The 13-liter tank provides a calculated range of about 255 km, while the 5.10 liters/100 km fuel consumption describes its fuel use. A belt final drive avoids chain cleaning and adjustment. The 252 kg wet weight can make slow maneuvers and parking more demanding, and the 830 mm seat height is an important fit consideration.

Pros and cons

Advantages

Low-rpm torque
Peak torque arrives at 3,000 rpm, supporting a relaxed, pulling response without needing high engine speeds.
Belt final drive
The belt drive needs no chain cleaning or adjustment.
Useful tank range
Its 13-liter tank gives a calculated full-tank range of about 255 km.

Things to consider

Heavy at low speed
At 252 kg wet, the motorcycle can take more effort to maneuver in tight spaces or while parking.
Tall seat
The 830 mm seat height may make it harder for shorter riders to put both feet flat on the ground.
