Built around Yamaha's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2022 Yamaha Crypton utilizes a 110 cc (6.7 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 6.8 HP (5 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 7.9 Nm (5.8 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 61.8 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Crypton measures 103 kg (227 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (15.15 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,205 mm (47.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.2-liter (1.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
