Engineered by Yamaha for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2006 Yamaha Majesty 400 pairs a 395 cc (24.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 33.5 HP (24.5 kW) at 7,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 37 Nm (27.3 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm. With a specific output of 84.8 HP per liter and a 1,250 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (7,250 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Majesty 400 measures 201 kg (443 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.17 HP/kg (6 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 750 mm (29.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,565 mm (61.6 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
