Technical Overview
2017 Yamaha Saluto Disk Brake Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around Yamaha's allround motorcycle platform, the 2017 Yamaha Saluto Disk Brake utilizes a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 8.2 HP (6 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10.1 Nm (7.4 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 65.6 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 Saluto Disk Brake measures 113 kg (249 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (13.78 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,265 mm (49.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7.6-liter (2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 1.28 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 594 km (369 miles) between fill-ups.
