Weight is the scooter spec riders feel most but check least. A 10 kg difference changes parking, paddling through jams, catching a tip-over and loading onto a ferry. This table uses only weights published by Honda Vietnam and Yamaha Vietnam on official product pages (retrieved 23 September 2026) - wet weight where Yamaha publishes it, kerb weight for Honda.

How to read it
The spread is nearly 40 kg across the class. The lightest three (Vision, Latte, Grande) are all small-wheel city machines - light weight is their whole character, as our lightest motorbikes guide explains. The middle band (110-118 kg) is the modern 125-160 cc mainstream, where Honda’s eSAF-framed newcomers sit. The two heaviest - NVX and especially the SH160i - buy their stability with mass: long wheelbases, big tyres, big tanks.
Weight versus stability
Heavier is not worse; it depends on your roads. Heavy and long-wheelbase machines feel planted on fast, broken arterials; light and short-wheelbase machines win where you push, park and U-turn constantly - see our wheelbase explainer for the geometry side.
Who should care most
Newer riders and smaller riders should stay near the light end of the table - catching a 134 kg scooter at a red-light tip-over is a different event from catching a 97 kg one. Tall, experienced riders carrying pillions can use the heavy end deliberately; see the two-up guide. For availability of any model at Nguyen Tu, contact us to confirm current availability.
