First Ride Review: Yamaha X-Max 300

[@1966johnnywayne]

After several decades of riding bikes, I got my first scooter, a 2022 Yamaha Zuma125 three years ago and loved it. I'm currently riding a 2016 Honda Forza300 and looking to switch to the Yamaha Xmax 300. Not a lot of 'Maxi' scooter options here in Canada, but I'm glad that Yamaha brings in the Xmax.

Used my yamaha xmax 300 for couple of years now (2021) Absolute pleasure and thankful for 22000km insident free.

[@Billy-c3m]

It is worth every cent. Great milage and great for long distance.

[@kjpstorm]

just got one myself. the storage is incredible

[@MarkLoris]

And it rides so much better than any Ive tested ... its motor is so much quieter and smoother than any !!!!

[@Smaug1]

What an outstanding review! I watch the other ones and they spend all this time walking around it and quoting specs, as if we can't get that directly from Yamaha's page.

[@StianHarduingentingmed-ck2ot]

Great video! Is it real leather or vinyl/pleather?

[@KINGTERIK]

Is this one the tech version

[@michaelmeyers4366]

Ive had a leo vince and akra pipes and it feels so much better if you upgrade :)

[@sxtsxt6714]

where did you get them from?

[@MarkLoris]

I just picked up a new 2023 Xmax 300 for ONLY $6299 out the door ....thats cheap as heck for such a great machine !!!!!!

[@jgeph2.4]

Where did you find it for that price ? I’m interested in this machine in the USA

[@MarkLoris]

@jgeph2.4 look in Cycle Trader and dealers that have any 2023s left are letting them go for 5794 ....you might have to get it shipped or pick it up.....if you live far away .....good luck !

[@MarkLoris]

I got mine in Tulsa, Ok 1st week in Nov 2023 K& N Motorsports

[@yoooda-tz6zk]

The 2023 goes for 6500 in Europe. 6200 USD is a good price. I get my 2024 next week

[@jeremymartin7836]

​@@MarkLoris, do you recall that there was another one at that location? I picked it up on Halloween, 2023. Small world!

[@mrmoon1482]

Wouldn’t swap my Xmax’ or burgman for any bike,

[@KINGTERIK]

What size burgman do you have

[@mrmoon1482]

@ sold the burgman now got a forza 300, sold the xmax aswell for a royal Enfield 650, so my comment didn’t age well 🤣

[@KINGTERIK]

@@mrmoon1482 what didn't you like about the xmax

[@mrmoon1482]

@ the xmax is a great scooter but for me I was finding the seating position a bit high

[@swamivandermerwe]

This is briliant ❤ price is high unfortunately, but how is riding with a passenger?

[@MarkLoris]

Price is cheap for what you get ...mine was $6299 out the door !!!

[@mrmoon1482]

They handle a passenger better than most bikes you can’t tell anyone is on the back,

[@johnmartin7158]

No problems taking a passenger.

[@christokruger7295]

The price is the Big downfall, no thanx!

[@MarkLoris]

What are you talking about I bought 2023 Xmax 300 for 6299 out the door .....it's a steal !!!!

[@MarkLoris]

I paid 6299 out the door ....that's dirt cheap for such a quality machine that is rock solid !!!!

[@johnmartin7158]

Not at all. 9700 NZ bucks for the XMAX Yamaha. And the 400cc BMW motor scooter is nearly 16000 NZ bucks. I reckon the Yamaha is a better scoot.

[@michaeljuse5667]

cheaper than a vespa

[@yoooda-tz6zk]

Wtf?
