Q. Is this scooter comfortable for long ride and what about the suspension?

While it romps ahead in outright acceleration, and despite the linear power delivery of the motor, you can breeze past slow-moving traffic with a simple twist of the throttle. In the city, with the engine stop-start system helping out when necessary, the Ray ZR managed to deliver class-leading fuel efficiency of 66kmpl. Less weight means less stress on the engine to get up to cruising speeds, and the linear power delivery aiding. On the highway, it isn’t bad either, matching NTorq’s fuel efficiency figure. The slightly smaller fuel tank might force you to stop for fuel sooner but the 20-25km deficit in range will not be a deal-breaker. On the other hand, the suspension components are new with Yamaha now opting for a more plush setup. The ride isn’t jarring like it was on the older 110cc scooter. There is an initial bit of firmness from the front telescopic fork the ride improves as the speeds get higher. The mono-shock is very softly sprung. It does get a little wallowy when you tackle large speed humps with gusto or if you have a rather large pillion on board. So, you do experience that bounciness but that settles down fairly quickly as well, helping you regain composure with ease. For a better understanding of compatibility and driving comfort, we would suggest you to take a test drive.
