Yamaha's Fazzio, a 125cc scooter equipped with a "Power Assist" function to help acceleration from a stop, now offers a 20mm lower seat option. The lowered seat improves ground reach and overall handling. Its simple design that suits everyday wear has proven popular with female riders, and the model has captured nearly 50% class share since its launch this past April.

Ease, convenience, speed - the Fazzio lives that out to the letter. To me, a scooter's whole life is its maneuverability. If a 20mm lowering improves foot reach, the reassurance at every red light is completely different. Combined with power-assisted launch, there's nowhere in the city this can't take you.

Launched in April and already at 50% share, that's basically a class monopoly.

Better footing reduces standstill tip-overs, that alone justifies it.

This kind of convenience with power-assist on a 125 looks good, what's the price?

It's a peaceful world where lowering it 20mm counts as news, it's mechanically the same otherwise.

The Fazzio's genuinely cute, and if the footing's improved that's fantastic.

Unbeatable as a local runabout probably, curious how much luggage capacity it has.

Is the 20mm lower height just from the seat shape? Suspension seems unchanged.

Does lowering the bike make the ride quality worse?
