2016 Vento Phantom ZX Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Vento for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2016 Vento Phantom ZX pairs a 149 cc (9.1 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 7.8 HP (5.7 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 52.3 HP per liter, the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

On the scales, the Phantom ZX measures 112 kg (247 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (14.36 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 6-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
