  • Nepali reviews highlight mileage and low maintenance cost as key reasons buyers choose Saluto over higher‑cc Yamaha models for Kathmandu, Pokhara and Terai city traffic.
  • The model is sold through Yamaha’s official MAW dealer network with showrooms and service access in major Nepali cities, which supports spare parts availability and resale confidence.
  • Saluto 125 Disc ex-showroom price Rs 2,82,900; UBS variant Rs 2,54,900.
  • Kerb weight 114 kg, ground clearance 180 mm, seat height 805 mm.
  • Real-world Nepali mileage in mixed city traffic ~45-60 kmpl.
  • Spare parts and service available through Yamaha network but some delays in less common parts; service cost perceived high.

OWNERS OUTSIDE NEPAL

Owners in India have lived with this for 11 years 4 months

The Yamaha Saluto has been on sale in India longer than in Nepal, so owners there have answered questions Nepali owners are only starting to. This sits alongside the Nepali sentiment above — it does not replace it. It is sold there as the Yamaha Saluto 125.

⚠️ THE NEPAL VERSION IS NOT IDENTICAL
  • Indian reviews consistently describe the Saluto as a 125 cc commuter with carburetted engine, simple suspension and halogen headlamp; if the Nepal version uses fuel injection, LED lighting, or different suspension/tyre sizes, owner complaints about carburettor behaviour, halogen headlamp brightness, or specific tyre grip may not apply directly.
  • Some Indian owners refer to front disc / rear drum brake setup on higher variants; if Nepal gets only drum or different brake configurations, feedback about disc-brake feel or performance may differ.
  • ARAI mileage figures (78 km/l) are based on Indian test procedures; any official Nepali test figures will differ even though the underlying bike is similar.
  • If Nepal version is sold under different engine-size variant (e.g. 110-cc Saluto RX) that changes performance, transmission, power; also variant of brakes (disc vs drum) and ABS/UBS presence may differ; fuel emission norms (e.g. BS4 in India until discontinuation) might cause engine tuning differences
GROUND CLEARANCE & ROUGH ROADS
Specs list ground clearance ~180 mm; owners say seat height and clearance give a taller ride feeling and may be a bit high for shorter riders.
REAL-WORLD RANGE
ARAI-certified mileage is reported as 78 km/l, but owner‑reported average is about 60–65 km/l in mixed use.
Several detailed user reviews over tens of thousands of km report 55–72 km/l, with higher figures at steady 40–55 km/h and careful riding, and around 55–60 km/l in normal city use.
Claimed fuel efficiency of ~78 kmpl; many owners report 60-70 kmpl in city, sometimes 50-55 kmpl depending on load/condition.
SPACE & PRACTICALITY
Multiple reviews praise the long seat and say it is comfortable for rider and pillion on daily commutes.
Seat is long, able to accommodate pillion relatively well; spacious enough for two riders though pillion comfort can suffer.
COMFORT & RIDE
Many owners call it a very comfortable commuter, citing upright riding position, light weight, and easy handling in traffic.
Several long‑term users (3+ years, 30,000–35,000 km) say it is comfortable for daily use but note that the seat feels hard on long rides and can cause discomfort over distance.
Upright riding position appreciated; however, seat described by many as hard; long rides can cause discomfort; some vibration above 70 km/h reported.
PERFORMANCE
Owners describe the Saluto as a smooth, easy-handling commuter with adequate pickup for city use; some say pickup is better than other 125 cc commuters in its class.
Several long‑term users report comfortable cruising around 45–60 km/h, with the bike capable of higher speeds (around 70–90 km/h) but feeling more at home at moderate speeds.
Modest power; owners say decent pickup for city speeds, struggles beyond ~70-80 km/h and highways best kept for moderate use.
TECHNOLOGY & SCREENS
Owners see the Saluto as a simple, no‑nonsense bike without advanced electronics; they appreciate basic features like front disc brake on higher variants but do not highlight any standout tech.
Basic tech; drum brakes in many variants, optional front disc later; tubeless tyres; electric start; few modern aids; light weight helps manoeuvring.
BUILD QUALITY
Some owners compliment overall build solidity and say the bike holds up well after several years and tens of thousands of km if maintained properly.
Other owners complain about low-quality paint on the engine and some parts, noting peeling or fading over time.
A few users mention dim/weak headlamp performance and say the halogen light becomes less effective after some use.
Generally solid build for its class; some complaints about coating/paint peeling, rust in exposed metal parts, handle rust or cosmetic defects appearing after short use.
RELIABILITY
Multiple long‑term owners (3 years and ~30,000–35,000 km) report no major mechanical failures, only routine maintenance, and say the bike remains smooth and reliable.
Several reviews describe the Saluto as low-maintenance and “maintenance‑free” in normal commuting use.
A minority of owners report cold-start issues in winter and some engine-related dissatisfaction, calling the engine the main drawback in their individual cases.
Engine and mechanical aspects are generally reliable if maintained; some issues reported with starting (especially in cold/winter), electricals (e.g. speedometer, self-start) and premature wear of some components.
RAISED IN INDIA — BUT DOES NOT CARRY OVER TO NEPAL

Resale value, service and spare-part costs, warranty terms and charging coverage are set by each market — different duty, different dealer networks, a different used-car market. Read these as context on the vehicle's reputation, never as figures for Nepal.

  • Indian owners frequently praise the Saluto as good value for money or budget-friendly, but this depends on local Indian pricing and incentives, not the bike itself.
  • Comments about low running/maintenance cost and inexpensive servicing are tied to Indian labour and parts pricing and do not predict costs in Nepal.
  • Mentions of resale value or ease of selling the bike are specific to Indian used-bike demand and cannot be assumed for Nepal.
  • Owner feedback on dealer/service network quality (good or bad) reflects Yamaha’s coverage and workshop standards in India, not in Nepal.
  • Price in India differs; service cost/spare parts availability very market-specific; warranty coverage and dealer support vary widely by location; resale value dependent on local demand

Owner satisfaction in India: 74/100. This is a reading of India owners only — it is not a Nepal sentiment score and is not counted in one.
