Scooter Review Yamaha CY50 Jog Yamaha has found a way to make going for a jog fun. It’s also green and economical. Sounds better than exercise
- Do you know what Jog owners really pride themselves on? Like a bike journo telling their mates about the job they have, Jog owners have the same pleasure in alerting their car-driving friends to the fact that they can fill their scoots with petrol and get some change from just a couple of gold coins! And that will see to the fuel situation for a week!
No kick starting, no gears, no traffic jams, no bike licence needed (in some states in Australia) and, with the bike’s compact size, you can expect few to no hassles finding somewhere to park.
Yamaha claims that when you buy a Jog you get ‘the most affordable mode of transport this side of a donkey, with automatic oil injection, electric starting and V-belt transmission all adding up to simple, no-fuss operation and ownership. Just like a good pair of joggers.’ And they’re almost right too!
Commuters will be happy with the pace of the Jog which is more like a 100m sprinter than your Sunday runner lapping Albert Park. And Greenies will be kept smiling with the Jog’s minute impact to its surroundings.
A wise choice for those environmentally minded and those who are keen to keep their money in their wallet.
