I bought the China knock off of the Zuma . It's a 150cc. I've only had time to put 117 miles on it, but enjoy it so far. I've added a hard case on the rear, and made a different windshield. Runs around 60 mph, and around 100 mpg.
I'm a big fan of your channel. I'm just waiting on the dealership to drop off my Zuma and my MSF course is in 3 weeks. I'm incredibly nervous and your relaxed rides help to calm my nerves a bit.
The Zuma is really easy to ride, you don't have to straddle it, just hop on, press start, turn the handle and take off. Really a great machine. Thanks for watching, good luck.
@@gregghershberger7968Thanks for the video and the reply. Good to hear about the pep. If acceleration up to 40-50mph is decent then it might find its way to my garage😁 I can understand why Yamaha wouldn't make this a 200 since Xmax sales would likely suffer.
I am 6'1". My wife is only 5'1" and she didn't feel comfortable riding it but she could manage it. At 5"5" you should be fine because she couldn't put both feet on the ground so when she stopped she had to lean over one side or the other but her feet were only about two inches from the ground so you should be fine. Most dealers will let you try it to see if you're comfortable.
Sweet ride buddy! I preferred the camera angle when you held it so you could see the handlebars, so I would recommend a helmetmount so us viewers get an immersive experience!
Well happy pappy..i haven't watched ur channel in while, iam the Pittsburgh guy who was looking get a zuma which brought me to ur channel, well both happy and sad to say i didn't get the zuma, But i did get the honda ruckus, i really like the ruckus, ill be using it as my daily driver for rest of winter for work, But first thing in spring iam going to pay off the ruck and definitely want get the zuma, hence why iam back lol!!
I looked at the Ruckus also, really liked the looks of it. Haven't ridden as much as I hoped, sidelined for two months with a hernia operation. This getting old isn't fun. Have a Merry Christmas. Thanks for watching.
Yea I had a hernia surgery when I was in my 20s, they used this mesh stuff that was actually recalled, cogal mesh or something like that, I got the hernia lifting structural steel stairs out of a big hotel in downtown Pittsburgh called weston William Penn hotel, we then I went back after that the following summer and broke my ankle when a armature spool fell off dolly jack onto my ankle, then later on I saw a documentary that people claimed the hotel was haunted lol, I think it was definitely cursed for me!!😂
aA 600 miles just an oil change and they check the belts, brakes, etc. At 2000 miles they recommend another oil change, check the belt, and I think do valve adjustments. I've had no problems with mine and I've had it in some pretty rugged situations. I take it back to the dealer since it is still under warranty but after that I"ll probably due most the maintenance myself. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for watching, can't please everyone, for every person who says too much talk or too much music there is always someone else who says you didn't tell us enough.

I appreciate all the extra work getting all those camera angles.
Thanks for watching. Can hardly wait for riding weather again

This bike looks sweet! Yamaha needs to make it at least a 200cc.
That would be nice but the 125 has more pep than I thought it would . Thanks for watching

Thanks for the Zuma videos. How tall are you. Im only 5’5” and I am wondering if I will be able to ride it comfortably or at stop lights.

My son lives in Pittsburg so I better tell him to stay away from there. Hope you're all healed up and doing well.@@josephgeorgeejr7039
You said 2000 miles and time for another service. I’m thinking of getting one, what kinda of service does the Zumba require?

I can’t wait to get mines 2023 Zuma
You’ll love it. Thanks for watching
Talking ruined the video. Wish you would have just rode and let us enjoy the ride.
