Read Full Review

The Ather Rizta S isn't just a new model—it's a statement. It takes everything we love about the brand's R-series DNA and distills it into a more accessible, real-world-ready middleweight that refuses to compromise on performance or technology.

After spending a week with the Rizta S on everything from city streets to mountain switchbacks and a local track day, it's clear this bike walks a fine line between everyday usability and outright sportbike thrill.

Engine Character That Connects

At the heart of the Rizta S is Yamaha's refined 890cc CP3 engine, and what a gem it is. Torque-rich and eager, it pulls cleanly from low revs and screams all the way to the top. It's the kind of power delivery that makes you want to take the long way home—every time.

“It's not just about the numbers on paper. It's how the Rizta S delivers those numbers that makes it so addictive.”
— Alex Morgan

The bi-directional quickshifter, ride-by-wire throttle, and ride modes work seamlessly to give you confidence in any situation. Whether you're carving up a canyon or cruising through traffic, the Rizta S feels intuitive and alive.

Chassis, Handling & Real-World Confidence

Built around a lightweight Deltabox aluminum frame, the Rizta S feels nimble and planted. It flicks into corners effortlessly, yet remains composed under braking or mid-corner bumps. The fully adjustable KYB suspension strikes a great balance—firm enough for track duty, but compliant enough for rough urban roads.

Brakes are strong and predictable, with excellent lever feel thanks to the radial master cylinder and high-spec calipers. Add in cornering ABS and traction control, and you've got a bike that looks out of you without getting in your way.
