The Ray uses a steel, underbone type chassis, and bests most rivals, including Honda’s Dio for using telescopic front fork suspension. The low, upright riding posture feels comfortable and right for a commuter, and although the Ray’s floorboard is slightly inclined, this doesn’t hamper riding pleasure.

The Ray offers light handling and a precise steering feel, making this an easy scooter to ride. Even shorter riders will face no trouble placing both feet properly on a road when stationary. And this Yamaha goes around corners as well as any scooter riding on 10-inch wheels. Likewise, ride quality is good.

MRF tyres generate good grip, while braking is adequate. The Ray stopped after 20.95 metres from 60kph during brake testing with us.
