Key figures
"For the class" means measured against the 118 other bikes on this site within 40 cc of this one. It is arithmetic against our own catalogue, not an opinion, and it changes as the catalogue grows.
What this bike is
The Saluto is the way into a Yamaha for the least money, and that is its whole argument, because on paper it is not the strongest buy among 125 cc commuters. Suzuki's GSX 125 costs Tk 21,550 less and quotes more power, 10.45 PS against 8.3, with a 14.2 litre tank against the Saluto's 7.6. Runner's Turbo 125 costs Tk 8,500 less than the Saluto and carries nearly double its fuel. Where the Saluto answers back is weight: at 113 kg it is 13 kg lighter than the GSX and 20 kg lighter than the Turbo. It is also carburetted and has four gears where the GSX has five.
Who it suits. Buyers set on a Yamaha who value a light bike over a big tank, and have looked at the GSX 125 first.
Written in September 2026 from Yamaha's own published figures, which are in the specification table on this bike's spec page. We have not ridden it and we do not pretend to have.
Good and less good
In its favour
- Light for the class at 113 kg.
Against it
- Modest for the class at 8.19 bhp.
- Small for the class at 7.6 litres.
- Yamaha does not mention ABS on its own specification sheet for this model, so we cannot confirm it either way.
- One of the dearer bikes in its body style on this site.
Every point here is read off the manufacturer's published figures or off a comparison with the other bikes on this site. None of it comes from riding the motorcycle, because we have not.
