Sorry for the late reply, just saw ur comment! I've never ridden the Forza bud, so I can't compare, but this XMax is still my fave mid-range scooter till today 😊
Absolutely yes. I have a friend who commutes daily from Sban to KL on one, to and fro, daily, he has NO regrets buying this. Loves it!! So as the occasional long distance "scootourer", it's amazingly adept 😀
@@ChrisWeevilGarage thank you Chris....I never used a scooter before...I guess the only getting used to will be the left hand controlled brake... not confusing it for a clutch lever 🤣🤣🤣
Interesting observation there, yes maybe, but even on my own scooter the rear shocks are totally upright, but closer to the rear axle. The ones on the Xmax are much further back which makes it feel more stable, well to me anyway. Thanks for watching! 😊
@@ChrisWeevilGarage your welcome sir .. . we have the same SCOOt just bought mine last JUNE onli , ive sold my AEROX very much contented with this xmax 300 the aerox 155 i previously owned cant even reached 120 kph on a straight hiway hhahahahaha in almost 2 yrs i owned it e never experienced reaching 120 kph, even 118 kph it can hardly reached, heheheheh . but with this XMAX, its very easy 2 reached 120 to 130 kPh even u had ur back rider, hahahahahaha
@@ChrisWeevilGarage i thought that the one u owned is a 300cc ( 292 on paper) becoz they look the same with what we have here in philippines almost the same sir so i thought that a 300cc too and not 250, hehehehehe u know, here in the Philippines, if u owned a XMAX, literally u can brag becoz its not an ordinary scooter like the nmax or aerox, or HONDA ADV 150 that u can see every where scattered , too many of them here, hahahahaha xmax is very pricy costing 250,00 thousand philippine peso or 5,000 US DOLLARS if converted to 50 pesos per dollar here, dats a lot of money for a single scooter sir, hehehehehe onli few can afford that especially these hard times of life financially due to pandemic
WaMoSha Z that's interesting to know, cos I heard the same about the Yamaha Nmax as well... could be either the demand is too high, or HYLM didn't expect the demand to be so great, and didn't allocate enough units to their dealers. A friend of mine had to pay a premium to get his Nmax faster instead of waiting 6mts 🤨
I have no complaints about the PCX except for 2 things; as far as a scooter is concerned it's very accomplished; well-made, nicely put together, stylish (subjective) and smooth.... as u mentioned however, it is quite pricey (which is why the Yamaha N-Max is doing so well) and for me, it's 'physically' too small. I reckon it's ideal for anyone 5'3" to 5'8" max. in height, which is why this X-Max suited me so well. Thanks for watching! :)
I know it's a different price range but I could afford xmax, but should I buy it instead of pcx 150 (maybe pcx hybrid) ? Does it justify the price different (a very huge one too)?
@@tanvirahmed2721 between 25-30km per litre depending on riding style. The full tank should typically return more than 300km between fill-ups 😊 Thanks for watching!
@@deejayrobin73 haha, not really a Maxi,171.2cc only, but physically the body is bigger compared to other scooters in that range, I find it more comfortable for me 😉
@@deejayrobin73 aww nice!! Yeah, I've actually been riding longer than I've been driving, my first bike was a Honda Raider 135, back in the mid-80s!!😀 As with my cars, I'm more into retro and classic bikes now, I have a Suzuki Katana 750 and a Kawasaki Victor 150cc 2-stroke, which I call my fog-machine, hahaha!!🤭
Rimbu moto Thanks again, I try to keep it simple and easy for anyone to understand. This is important for me... no point doing it if nobody can understand right? Haha tq for watching 😊
Chris Wee thank you very much . I am expecting more. like this from you. Always supporting you. because how to review the product as simple as technical that's why Ha Ha...
Someday i believe all cvts in scoot n bikes will be 'Wet CVT' no need to change the belt.. just change the cvt gear oil... just like a cvt transmission in a car.. its possible just need to downsize the tranny a whole lot.
Yes way! I did it myself. Just to see if it could, and it can. No seat and grip heaters on these units though, we're in the tropics here, lol! Thanks for watching and the comment!! 👍🏾😊

Good As a mechanic i know Shock absorber position is very very proper it's very helpful lack of wobbling.
Rimbu moto aha! Tq for the feedback bro! I thought so as well 😊👍🏾
Is the xmax better than the Honda forza? What's your opinion😊
Sorry for the late reply, just saw ur comment! I've never ridden the Forza bud, so I can't compare, but this XMax is still my fave mid-range scooter till today 😊
Hi Chris... would you recommend this for occasional long trips in the range of 300km to 400km....
Absolutely yes. I have a friend who commutes daily from Sban to KL on one, to and fro, daily, he has NO regrets buying this. Loves it!! So as the occasional long distance "scootourer", it's amazingly adept 😀
@@ChrisWeevilGarage thank you Chris....I never used a scooter before...I guess the only getting used to will be the left hand controlled brake... not confusing it for a clutch lever 🤣🤣🤣
yup.... i bought one last year. so far so good
Awesome!! It's still my fave new scoot 👍🏾🙏🏽😀
Love the color
Me too! Suits this scoot really well 😊👍🏽
here in the Philippines, its a 300 cc scoot with a 292 cc on the paper REGISTRATION
Thank you for the feedback!! It happens here too, this c.c. "round up". My SYM200 VTS, is actually just 171.2cc, hahaha!!🤭
Rear shock should have lean angle to front.... otherwise is same as EX5 on the rear..over road bump feel like being kicked
Interesting observation there, yes maybe, but even on my own scooter the rear shocks are totally upright, but closer to the rear axle. The ones on the Xmax are much further back which makes it feel more stable, well to me anyway. Thanks for watching! 😊
Thanks for the English review..

@@ChrisWeevilGarage So which scooter you're having now?

@@ChrisWeevilGarage That's ok.
@@syedsaijoal-habsyie9854 yep, it's a very hardy scoot 😊
How much it cost?
I want to buy it.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Over here in Malaysia it's rm21,000... well worth it 😊
Nice. But very hard to get one right now as a lot of shop don't want to sell it. Maybe not enough demand?

Production problems? @ Marketing tricks? Anyway yamaha better suit up ASAP cause Honda seem to be leading the way now...
How about PCX 150 by Honda? this model is so pricey for a bike.
I have no complaints about the PCX except for 2 things; as far as a scooter is concerned it's very accomplished; well-made, nicely put together, stylish (subjective) and smooth.... as u mentioned however, it is quite pricey (which is why the Yamaha N-Max is doing so well) and for me, it's 'physically' too small.

i just sold my pcx.. not enough pwr..
After Nmax am using PCX 150....Really smooth ride n nice handling.
salmon can what about piaggio medley 150 ?
I know it's a different price range but I could afford xmax, but should I buy it instead of pcx 150 (maybe pcx hybrid) ? Does it justify the price different (a very huge one too)?

Possible, very possible. As I've said in some videos, the only place a CVT belongs is in a scooter, not a car 😆
I thought this was the 300?🤔
Not this one, it's a 250cc 😊
That cute cat though 😅
Hahaha!! Yeah, watching the proceedings 👍🏾😁
Prices plees

grip and seat heater ?
140 km ??? NO WAY !
My 250 Yamaha Tricker is barely doing 100 km !
If you want to do 140 then only with a 350 0r 400 cc bike.
Yes way! I did it myself. Just to see if it could, and it can. No seat and grip heaters on these units though, we're in the tropics here, lol! Thanks for watching and the comment!! 👍🏾😊
I'm 2m/145 kg and this scooter is doing 120 to 135 km/h with me on it, like it's nothing!!
