Yamaha C3, 2011, Scooter

 

Yamaha C3, 2011

A cool-looking, functional transport tool with nine gallons of storage and fuel injection.
Boxy is beautiful.
That cube shape gives the 2011 Yamaha C3 great storage capacity - about 9 gallons - and it's hard to beat a 49cc fuel injected four-stroke engine, big wide tires, motorcycle-style fork and that zippy engine means it's a hoot to ride too.

 Features:

• Trendy "box" design scooter accentuates cubic space-hence the name C3-while it stresses function and simplicity.
• Completely modern running gear, including a fuel-injected engine, makes this one super-economical to operate. The C3 will take you a long, long way on a single 1.2-gallon tank of gas.
• High-function features include big tires on cast aluminum wheels, a motorcycle-type fork and handlebar.
• Side-hinged, locking storage compartment swallows up to 9 gallons of gear.
• The C3 achieves fuel economy up to an estimated 115mpg* with a fuel tank that holds 1.2 gallons of gas.

Engine:

• Liquid-cooled three-valve, four-stroke engine is powerful, quiet and low-maintenance.
• Electronic fuel injection: a 19mm Mikuni® throttle body provides optimal mixture in all conditions and easy cold starts.
• The C3 will take you a long, long way on a single 1.2-gallon tank of gas.
• Fully automatic V-belt transmission provides easy, twist-the-throttle-and-go operation.
• Pushbutton electric starting (with backup kickstarter) gives ultimate ease of operation.
• The air-induction system and exhaust catalyst technology reduce air pollution.

Chassis/Suspension:

• Fat, 120/90-10 front and rear tires offer excellent traction and rugged looks.
• Large-diameter steel-tube frame provides strength, long life and great handling.
• Hydraulic motorcycle-type front fork with 2.3 inches of travel delivers a smooth ride.
• Motorcycle-type handlebar can be swapped out easily for a different bend or style.
• Unlike most scooters, the front apron turns along with the fork for style and function.

 Additional Features:

• Wide, comfortable seat is only 28.9 inches from the pavement.
• The 9-gallon locking underseat storage is perfect for hauling backpacks, groceries, or whatever.
• Retro/functional style is designed for individual customization.
