[@robertfekete9648]

i`m interested in taking the next step up after my Honda Forza NSS300. This video is one of the best (if the best)review of the T-Max in my opinion, thank you for that! It explained a lot of those questions what i had in mind.

[@ifaifa640]

For me this is the setup : Tmax Tech Max 560, malossi variator, Powercommander, Akrapovic exhaust and you fly!

[@wiesel1979]

Great comparison! One thing: XADV gets an update 2018 and it will have traction control too.

[@YellowJacketGroup]

Thanks for the honest review. Brave to take the tmax offroad lol. Nice to know it could do it if need be!

[@gordonLP]

The X-ADV actually has 3 levels of "Sport Mode" although probably not relevant in this comparison test, also, if off roading is your thing, you can get the optional footrest which are set at the back of the running boards, these would address your (correct) observation regarding being to close to the bars when standing, these are as far as I know are not an option for the TMAX, regarding storage, you are correct regarding the under seat storage, I couldn't fit my Arai Tour X in there with it's peak attached. Anyway, a great mini review 🙂

[@tyciczort4006]

Really nice and clear review!

[@florimondkrins9980]

I see the X-ADV more as a dual-sport or even touring motorcycle rather than a maxi scooter. test drove it a few weeks ago with a pillion and we were both impressed how smooth, yet punchy when necessary, and also how comfortable it is. Much more comfortable than the NC750, for the rider and especially the pillion.

[@shaneweightman]

Great clear to the point review, thumbs up 👍 from me thanks

[@j.lizbardo]

This is a pretty good review and comparisson. Due to the fact that one is an undefined hybrid.

Sounds like a T-max owner unwillingly admitting the X ADV is better at almost everything.

[@hermanstokbrood]

Then you are not getting the point of a maxi scooter. If I had to choose between them for just one day I would choose the X-ADV. If I had to choose to own one of them it would be the TMax.

[@ifaifa640]

[@hermanstokbrood]

@@ifaifa640 Practicality. No chain. better weather protection, more luggage room etc. I like the looks of the ADV better though.

Except being a efficient storage capable scooter which is the whole point. Storage and weather protection are key.

[@staninjapan07]

Blimey! 10 out of 10 for your video making style and "all you need and nothing more" approach. I ride a 2012 V-Strom 650 infrequently and PCX150 daily here in Japan. Although I adore the V-strom - and well serviced it will run for ever - I want a more comfortable option (I get pain in my left hand and wrist from clutch work when in traffic). The 2018 Suzuki Skywave 650, 2017 Yamaha Tmax DX and Kymco AK550 are on my wish-list. A Honda Integra or even CTX700 would have been but if I am not getting a motorcycle, I am not going to tolerate chain maintenance every 1,000 kilometres. I am almost sure I will get the Tmax, having just looked at one, but having had a Skywave (Burgman) 650 as a loaner (earlier model), I know how comfortable they are. Still, 1,350,000 Yen for a the Tmax DX (about 10,000 pounds), and 1,000,000 for the Skywave... what to do? The final consideration is road conditions and traffic - road speeds here are 1/3 lower than the U.K., and roads are narrower, so filtering ability is as important as almost all other considerations. Thanks for a very good review and comparison video. I'll be on the look-out for more of your videos (not that I`ll be buying most of what I see there).

[@BAHRAMCR]

Nice review, also worth mentioning is the cruise control on Tmax.

[@johnnyfanta]

The primary reason I bought one over the competition. Absolutely no regrets - best bike I've ever owned!

[@UnngoyTMTayo]

* x adv for me overall, something you cannot be bored about especially its dct tech being reborn

[@aaronharris5275]

Fuel economy? Not sure if this was covered, but the honda can achieve over 60 mpg when used in the city. The T-max only around 40mpg this will add up over the years if using these bikes as commuters.

[@kam1la.s493]

You a bitch

[@gwynnus]

My DX delivers a consistent 55mpg

[@NyteMare96]

If you are PURELY looking for in and around town/city commuting then then TMAX is probably the best choice but if you are looking for more versatile city AND weekend away country riding with a better stylistic and traditional "motorbike" look about it then the X-ADV wins hands down.

[@VinLimited]

Nice review

[@martytarroza8895]

Over All, the Honda X-ADV Wins almost all comparisons..👍👍👍

[@richiep3520]

In process of getting my first tmax 2019 Dx ice fluo. Second hand but excellent condition and low milage. I traded in my x max 400 and I think the t max will be it for a good few years. Decent power, storage and great looks. It's my 7 days a week vehicle so for me, the classic maxi scooter-isms are what wins out for me too rather than the x adv having more power, less storage and less weather protection.

[@mikeogden5256]

Honda don’t play around... when a Honda product hits the market know it’s been perfectly fine in its R&D

[@mrpantur7280]

It all depends on what you want ... I think Hondas new technology won't be as reliable as the old tec that's on the tmax. And just think how expansive it will be to replace something on the xadv. The tmax has some of the same parts as the old tmax and there's tons of aftermarket stuff aswell !!!! ...

[@ChristianLieb]

There's an Austrian test driver, who used Honda's "new" technology of the DCT on an Africa Twin. He rode 475.000 km within the last 4 years. It is still working and in great shape, he says. Always taking care of the service intervals, of course.

[@markdennis930]

Excellent review.

[@sidneyhemphill4383]

The Honda obviously took that trail way better than the tmax. Bigger, actual motorcycle engine and wheels. Honda wins.

[@jimbeaver27]

Fine get a motorcycle but I love my Xadv. I love everything about it but it's so easy and fun to ride. I have ridden my Xadv on some really rough stuff, in fact it can go places the Africa Twin can't. It can because it's so stable with its low COG, there's little fear of dropping it. The NC doesn't appeal to me, it's just a cheap bike, but the Xadv is top of the line everything from the USD forks to the radial mounted calipers. The Xadv is all I need in a bike. It goes anywhere and does it with exceptional economy and fun. It'll tour the highways, rip up the trails, and commute around the city. The TMax does not appeal to me at all, it's the ugliest thing on 2 wheels.

Missed the point completely, you’ve reviewed the x adv as a maxi scooter when it isn’t, it’s a bike with some pro’s from the scooter world. If you want bike with ease and comfort that will mostly be used for commuting that you can go on a road trip on but don’t fancy the dull world of commuter bikes, it’s well worth a look at. It’s not a maxi scooter!

[@lukoradulic5340]

Isn't it a be redundant saying "continuously variable CVT", like saying it has four wheel 4WD?

[@buellterrier3596]

No it isn't redundant because a transmission could vary the gears in steps, in that case it will be "discretely" variable or "step-wise" variable. In the case of the CVT, there are no steps, i.e. the variation in the gear ratio is infinitely seamless between the lowest gear ratio to the highest gear ratio.

Yamaha TMax vs Honda NM4,Please...

[@gwynnus]

Thanks guys. I really wasn’t sure which one to go for... this made my choice easier. I ended up buying a DX partly because it corners far better than the XAdv which felt a little jittery in fast turns. And you’re absolutely correct about the weather protection... TMax is better in that respect too. And I have no intention of going on rough trails so the extra suspension travel wasn’t going to be used by me too often. My friend wasn’t to keen on the TMax but bought the Honda NC750 rather than the XAdv because he thought it could do whatever Honda’s scooter did, only better. Different strokes, I guess.

[@hermanstokbrood]

The NC has the same "flaw": it is chain driven. Not something a commuter is looking for. I really don't understand why the NC isn't belt driven. It would be the perfect commuter bike.

[@ChristianLieb]

The components used on the XADV are in part superior to the ones used on the NC750X. I do not understand, why Honda didn't utilize that room between the legs in the front and add another (small) compartment there. It is not like it would have killed the XADV's "looks". It would have made it much more practical.

[@marknaylor6550]

The person doing the road test mentioned that the honda has higher handle bars, I don't know his height but I can say the chief reason I have not bought a scooter is that at 6'1" my knees foul on the handle bars. I think I would not have that issue with the honda as the test rider mentioned the hondas higher handle bars as being uncomfortable which i assume is because of his height, maybe he's like 5'7". As soon as its available in North american I plan on trying one. I also love how the honda looks.

[@robbyclark6915]

Don’t really see the point of the ADV unless you can TRULY go “off road” with it for some adventure riding! Like you said, I got my Honda Silver Wing for the two wheel convenience and thrill, but also the practicality of the large storage and windscreen protection it offers. It’s a very practical ride, while still having that 2 wheel fun. I like the idea of an off road scooter but it would have to be truly off road worthy, else, what’s the point? Not that we’ll be getting them here in the US anyway?

Interesting review. All very subjective of course. I'm a recent convert to the Tmax and I find the Tmax 530 standard model entirelt suitable to my personal needs. I love it. I also love my W800 Kawasaki but for very different reasons. as for off roading, I would never expect the Tmax to be as green lane capable as say, an XT225 or a Honda CRT250 both of which I have owned. . I know for sure the Tmax would not handle some of my favourite sections of the Fosse way, why would it? Niether would the W800 but for different reasons. Still, an enjoyable video. Thanks.

[@rogersmith5371]

I'm not sure this is a fair comparison. The TMax is a maxi scooter whilst I am not sure in what category the Honda belongs. It has a scooter step through look but a dual clutch transmission whereas most scooters even the maxis have a belt driven CVT. The Honda appears to be designed with some off road capabilities whereas I would never attempt off road riding on a scooter. I own a Kawasaki Voyager 1700 (cruiser)and a Suzuki Burgman 650 Executive (scooter). Scooters, even the maxis are designed for riding in the city. The big ones can take on touring as well. A cruiser is for the open road spending all day on the road. My point here is choose a bike/scooter that suits the riding you're going to do, commuting, touring, off-road riding and so on. Comparisons are only fair if you're comparing apples to apples.

[@xDefuseh]

[@sheepman1962]

If you want a Maxi Scooter go for TMax, Burgman, Vespa 🛵, Klymco, BMW etc... but if you want the experience to be closer to a motorcycle with off road appeal and a DCT gearbox the It has to be the XADV for choice...

[@om_Sed]

2021..in my country the difference.. around $12000..tmax far more affordable

[@rogersmith5371]

I haven't ridden either of these machines. They both have pluses and minuses. The Yamaha TMax may be a bit over priced if it is the same as the Honda but has a almost 200cc smaller engine - especially when you consider there is a better equipped model than the base model you tested. There seem like a few things to like about both of them. Despite the designation of the Honda I'm not buying a scooter to go off-road even if it is just down a short country lane. The Honda screen while more easily adjustable looks to me to be mostly cosmetic like one of those stupid screens you see on sports bikes. The Yamaha might need a bit more work and time to adjust but looks to do a better job of providing wind protection. This is important because it takes the strain off the arms, chest and shoulders at motorway speeds. When considering the Yamaha I wonder why the screen isn't electrically adjustable like the Suzuki Burgman 650 (at least on the Executive model). Your review is comprehensive and informative. Thanks for posting

So, the ultimate "2-wheeled car" would still be the Suzuki 650 Burgman....It's hard to beat.

I'm in Japan and Honda does not offer the footpegs, which is too bad because I want a pair. I did get fancy floorboard rubbers and little wind deflectors for feet.

[@MrLou8888]

Since it appears we will get neither in the U.S. it's difficult to too excited.

[@rockysarcade19]

Exactly how I felt. Make it available !

[@OriginalBlaster]

Bmw c650 gt and c650 sport would destroy both of these choices and its available in America. The Suzuki Burgman 650 is also a better choice than both of these and available in the us. That's if you're interested in maxi scooters. They are also 2-4k $ more but definitely better choices.

[@sgt6711]

Both different...why compare??

[@Blayda1]

Its a very biased review. He doesnt like Maxi scooters but one which looks like a "normal" bike is preferred.

[@user-tq3ud9zi7w]

In NZ the Tmax is 17k NZD and the XADV is 30k NZD. Makes it an easy decision.

[@christianamistad9049]

Hinda is the best engine even it not a higher topspeed.than yamaha.

[@ed.t.hansen6499]

price is not the same in Asia. T max is 530,000 baht and Xadv is 430,000; 3-4,000 USD difference. 100,000 baht so its cheaper for a bigger engine and added discomfort.

I want that Tmax so bad guess i have to sell one kidney to afford it.

[@ed.t.hansen6499]

would take 2 kidneys to buy a bmw scooter.

[@akhsanurrofi6193]

I'll take TMax, please
