Another Yamaha at home - My Yamaha Ray

Verdict:

For teenagers, it's Dio any day and for elderly people / ladies it's Ray blindly (out of these 2 choices.

Thanks a lot,, going for the Ray. It's basically for wife's use and she finds it easier to handle Ray. I too feel the weight is more evenly distributed on the Ray.

Masking done, used Formula1 wax for the painted trims and tire dresser for the black grained surface

Final outcome after spending close to 1 hour

Not bad for a 7+ year old scooter
