Engineered by Yamaha for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2015 Yamaha Vino Molfe relies on a 49 cc (3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 38.0 x 43.5 mm (1.5 x 1.7 inches) with a 12.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Vino Molfe measures 84 kg (185 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 715 mm (28.1 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,160 mm (45.7 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.5-liter (1.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.13 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 211 km (131 miles) between fill-ups.
