Review Of Ray ZR Streetrally
by Ravi Singh Rana Digital MarketerBS6 has not only been the major game-changer in the automobile industry but has also served as an unintended leveller. Those who already have a successful product in a market and those who want to break into it must begin the product development process from scratch once the new standards are in place. Yamaha, which has tried for some time with mixed success to get into the booming Indian scooter industry, has surely been able to capitalise on disruption with two extensively upgraded 125cc scooters aimed directly at the young demographic: the Yamaha Ray ZR StreetRally or the Yamaha Ray Z Street Rally.
Aside from sharing a larger displacement with the Fascino, the Ray ZR also shares a foundation with Yamaha's new scooter platform, which is significant for reasons we'll get to in a minute.
Design
The "Armored Energy" idea is the foundation for the Yamaha Ray ZR 125 FI. There is an air of toughness about it since it appears & feels sportier with a touch of aggressive edges. The sleek graphics, strong frame, and high-end finish make this scooter seem like the pinnacle of athletic mobility. The newest Ray Zr Street Rally 125 Fi Specification has a more aggressive appearance and a sharper personality than the 110cc version. The front end is no longer sharp and pointed but rather fuller and rounded.
Features Although the Ray ZR Street Rally's aesthetic elements contribute to the bike's overall presentation, Yamaha's BS6 ultralight chassis is the real show-stopper. The Yamaha Ray ZR Street Rally is the lightest 125cc motorcycle currently available in India, with a dry weight of only 99 kg. While there are many advantages to taking a lightweight approach, it is important to point out that despite these advantages, the construction still feels extremely solid, and there is very little flex to report on rough roads or when using the brakes. The Yamaha Ray ZR Street Rally misses features because of its lightweight. The only connection it receives is through a wired IP network.
There is no lighting for the compartment underneath the seats, and the USB port is an extra cost. Besides the daytime running lights, ordinary halogen bulbs are used for all other illumination. Even though a full-face helmet won't fit in the bay, you'll have room for additional gear in the 21 litres of storage space. The Ray ZR Street Rally has one of the longest wheelbases in its class. Therefore, it baffles me that the interior volume is so cramped.
Performance
The Ray Z R, however, makes up for its flaws in ride quality and performance. You've been warned, and it might get heavy. Yamaha's new 125cc fuel-injected engine generates 8.2bhp and 9.7Nm of torque, which drives the Ray ZR Street Rally. You may not get the best stats in the 125cc scooter class, but when you factor in the scooter's 99-kilogram (kg) kerb weight, you get one of the fastest 125s in India. Yamaha boasts a 0-60 time of 7.59 seconds, which is remarkable. At the scooter's peak speed of 90 kph, the engine still feels smooth and quiet.
Although the firm suspension makes for a somewhat uncomfortable ride, it is not unbearable. The scooter's solid and assured feeling at greater speeds, in turn, is a direct result of the suspension's stiffness. Another area where the Ray Z shines is its braking ability; the 190mm callipers and drums in the rear provide more than enough bite, yet the scooter maintains its level stance even when using the brakes heavily, which is reassuring.
Conclusion
With the release of the new Ray ZR and Ray ZR Street Rally, Yamaha has made a significant gamble on reclaiming lost territory after BS6. As a result, the Ray Z R has competitive pricing, beginning at Rs 69,530 for the drum brake model, Rs 72,530 for the conventional disc brake model, and Rs 73,530 for the disc brake-equipped Street Rally model.
