2018 Yamaha XMax 300 (LAMS) - Scooter Review

[@alandomoney2888]

Your review was excellent,I’m getting one this week.

[@alandomoney2888]

Very happy with my new xmax,rode 450km and could have turned around and did it again.

[@StephanoHamez]

@@alandomoney2888 what colour did you get? I’m waiting for the 2021 black can’t wait

[@florme6494]

@@StephanoHamez have you got it yet? I’m considering the same. My only worry is the gold wheels. They’d be a pain to clean. The black looks amazing!

[@azurecoast45]

I really like that Yamaha is offering something in this sort of "mid-maxi" range. Really practicaly allrounder that splits the difference between the capable big touring maxis and the light and agile smaller scooters. I think with some improvements to ergonomics, and in my opinion, looks (its a touch too aggressive for my liking, Tmax is better), it could be amazing. The Yamaha NMAX at least lets you put your heels on the horizontal surface and your toes on the angled surface, this XMAX has that rise from horizontal to angled platform which prevents you from doing so.

Scooters 125cc to 300cc make a lot of sense for interurban use. The integrated storage is excellent.

That's true Carol.

Gry honda forza 300 ...this is bit to small for 1.86 Dude ..i’m 1.88 and don’t like it

[@robertmarsh3588]

@@misieq19 Forza 300 is smaller than the XMax. I'm 1.85m, took a long test ride and sadly is is way too small.

[@goog646]

@@robertmarsh3588 are you saying you test rode the Forza? Or the Xmax?

[@sisdavid]

Price?

[@toddler0013]

Not much of a review without the price $$$$. Inquiring minds want to know!

[@jgrc73]

Decent review great voice for reviews love to see more! Sub’d

[@steventipton5130]

Good video

[@derekl6475]

Interesting how you used footage from another KZbin rider. I wonder if he knows.....

[@BikeReviewcomau]

Don't think so Derek, filmed this all myself. What part were you thinking?

❤❤❤

[@stonehand49]

just bought one yesterday. Traded 400 Burgman. Horrible riding position.....cramped.....brakes only so so.....way too tech stupid. just give me a freaking key!!! no braking brake!!!! 2018 come on.

[@jesuslovesyoubuthatessinre3395]

T.T. Stern are you sorry that you got the Xmax? I was thinking of getting one

[@JedTaneo]

T.T. Stern Forza 300 is best compared to Xmax

[@lb150t]

I got a 2016 Kymco People GTi 300 i like Kymco people seating position better is up right, plus it has a flat floor compared to the downtown 300 .

[@aartmeijer6918]

T.T stern you say you bought a xmax and you find it horrible. I am sorry but I don't believe you. I own a xmax 300 and before I bought it, I had a test drive for one hour. Brakes are good the same as the Honda Forza 300 witch I also drove, the key works perfect ( you could have know that before you bought it). I love my xmax because it has for me a good sitting position, and enough power for a 300 , traction control and abs. A lot of people say a lot of things on the internet that I don't believe , and you are one of them.

[@stonehand49]

I had most every scooter...even a Forza....underpowered and terrible on my country roads. Burgman 400 ultimate in my opinion. Had Burgman 650...Honda Silverhawk 600. I will give my brand new Xmas a chance. The 100lbs less weight on the Xmax over the Burgman 400 is huge. If you can handle( 69 years old) that buy a 400 Burgman ABS

[@Ukrainianification]

This is like a damn commercial and not a review.

[@mandri106]

2018? Sure 2017

[@1990-t1j]

That riding position looks uncomfortable. Give me a motorbike.

[@BikeReviewcomau]

I found the feet up position less comfortable, but I've got long legs. Feet down seemed a lot more relaxed and spacious when riding.

Knob

[@alandomoney2888]

I had an Aprilia SR 300 Max 7 years ago.Modern day Maxi Scooters are lighter and more powerful making them more fun to ride.

[@1990-t1j]

@@alandomoney2888 I have recently bought a Yamaha Aerox 155 [great for the city] and a KTM Duke 390.
