Expanding its scooter range for 2017, Hong Leong Yamaha Malaysia (HLYM) has launched the 2017 Yamaha Ego Solariz scooter at a price of RM5,548. Touted as a “lifestyle-utility” transport solution, the Ego Solariz joins Yamaha’s Malaysian “Ego” range of scooters – the Avantiz, Ego S and Ego LC – as well as the 150 cc Yamaha NMax.
Carrying a 125 cc, air-cooled, SOHC, single-cylinder power plant, the new Solariz puts out 9.38 hp at 8,000 rpm and 9.6 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. The engine drives a CVT gearbox with V-belt final drive and starting is with either electric push-button or kick.
With a wet weight of 94 kg, fuel for this scooter is carried in a 4.2-litre tank, and there is a 10-litre underseat storage compartment. Seat height is set at a low 750 mm, with ground clearance at 135 mm, making the Solariz suitable for all riders.
Braking at the front is with a single disc brake, with telescopic front forks, while the rear uses a drum, with monoshock suspension on the integrated engine/swing-arm assembly.
The Ego Solariz is targetted towards the young urban commuter or student, and comes in four colour choices – Popular Red, Iconic Blue, Classic-Sport Brown and Trendy Magenta.
Priced at RM5,548, including GST, the 2017 Yamaha Ego Solariz will be available at Yamaha dealers from January.

ohh… yamaha mio M3
Why launch? 2018 hong Leong will complain no sales. Because small bikes banned in KL.
Rm5548 is pretty expensive for the lower income. Hope the gomen reduces taxes on kapchai to help the lower income.
Too many scooters already in Malaysia. So many choices.
True. Too many scoot and kapcais. But no mslaz. If hlym bring it here confirm will sell like hot cake no contest. Replace fz150i and bring mslaz here.
So cheap, what to do! Small scoots r okays but maxi scoots r pain in rear; Tailgating on fastlane, so big still wanna weave between cars during jam, phat-ass with humongous rear lights, etc…
Another choice for rempits …
aiyo yamaha… we don’t want this lah. we want the Aerox, with abs! bila?!
Pretty stupid move, HLYM. Another redundant model (Avantiz & Ego LC are 125cc as well). You should bring in Nouvo LC replacement model instead. I thought only BSH is blind and retarded.
now petrol expensive, can ride motorbike already. though it’s cheaper than my cervelo road bike, at least no need to use energy.
Underseat storage picture?

Another scooters? WHYYY!? If Aerox 155 it’s ok la. So many choices already. Bring in Yamaha WR125X plsss, want it so bad man. Malaysia got Kawasaki KLX only, boring.
