Till now, Yamaha did not have any scooter in the 125cc segment however, that vacancy has now been filled by the Fascino 125 Fi. Coming to the design, the Fascino more or less looks similar to the previous Fascino 110 but there are some changes made to the rear of the scooter. Another aesthetical change made to the scooter is a fatter 110 section rear tyre.

Powering the all-new Yamaha Fascino 125 Fi is a forced air-cooled 125cc engine which is fed by an electronic fuel injection system. This motor belts out 8.2bhp and 9.7Nm torque which is a good deal greater than the previous 7.2bhp and 8.1Nm numbers of the 113cc engine. Not only this but the engine is now 16% more fuel-efficient than the BS4 model. Yamaha claims that Fascino 125 Fi returns 58kmpl under test riding conditions.

This doesn’t end here, Yamaha also added idle start-stop system, as well as Start-Generator, accompanied ‘quiet engine start’ to the Fascino 125 Fi which seems to look similar to that of Honda’s Activa 125 silent start system. An interesting fact about the new Fascino 125 Fi is that it uses a lightweight frame which dropped the kerb weight down to just 99kg. This low weight will certainly help the ride in the city traffic a lot easier.
