Even on NMAX I'm starting to feel this now lol. My commute being KL-Seremban is about 70km. Sadly XMAX is too big and heavy for me, so I may have to look for a bike next.

Yeah. Maybe will upgrade in a year or two, but I'm quite disappointed that I can't physically handle the XMAX.

Hope that a scooter between the NMAX and XMAX size and displacement is launched by then.

I think Elegan does not have ABS, even though the original non-rebadged model does? The price is amazing, but I have sat on one and it felt even heavier than the XMAX. sad.gif

My problem is that I am suffering from a heart condition which limits my physical strength and stamina. Hence ideal for me would be something just a bit bigger than NMAX with around 200cc engine; enough for me to keep up with and overtake most cars. If not, will have to look at used 250+cc bikes with ABS and A&S clutch, as I can probably handle bikes with lighter clutch lever action.

Yeah, for me riding bike requires all senses for safety. Even the smallest disability can have big effects.

But still, feels better than driving car. laugh.gif

Your bike shop tuner needs to play around with all these parts to make it work. Not just the pulley only. laugh.gif

All of the above.. + final (secondary) gear ratio behind changed to aftermarket one, since its the one who limiting the top speed...

If not changes.. all the above changes Pulley Clutch ECU etc only make the bike pickup faster until you reach the speed limiter on the final (secondary) gear ratio....

but then.... its 155cc scooter, .. modified it .. shorten the engine lifespan...

I saw many used 2018/19 NVX on mudah
Why people selling this scooter? not good?
I'm thinking to get 1 by end of this week

Based on what I read on the FB groups, it's mostly because they bought for stylo purposes or thought it was fast. Then hang out with friends who have Ysuku/Y15 and LC135 and realize it's no match for those things. NVX is just a NMAX with sportier ergonomics, ABS, and less 'jetski' look.

If you're thinking of buying, understand that the bike is not meant to be an actual super sport scoot like the TMAX. It's a nice looking commuter machine that will get you from point A to point B, and has the advantage of ABS for additional safety. If that's what you're looking for, go for it.

EDIT: There are also some issues with the digital dash spazzing out and the standard center-stand breaking. So if you're buying 2nd hand, watch out for these.

Keep in mind that many of the used NVX'S on Mudah are asking for NEW retail price and more in some cases....make what you will.
I think you will love the NVX, and it still is one of the fastest, if not the fastest stock standard automatic 155cc on the market anywhere, due to great power to weight ratio.

accessories = wear & tear, no future value

i agree....a stock standard NVX is GREAT straight out of the box, and all you need. Factory Yamaha know what they are doing, and do it very well, striking that perfect balance of performance and reliability.

Was watching the Thailand MotoGP time trials last night, and after Valentino Rossi's crash (He was O.K.), I saw him taken back to the pits by a Yamaha Aerox 155 MotoGP edition. Looked great, complete with replica livery graphics.

I remember the 2016 Sepang MotoGP unveiling of the NVX / AEROX GDR155 with Valentino Rossi....how appropriate this bike has been for this scene. I noticed they used the Petronas Yamaha Motogp livery on the NVX last year, for use in the Sepang Yamaha pit bikes....again, very appropriate for the Malaysian specific market, with Malaysia's own Hafizh Syahrin riding Petronas Yamaha.
What an awesome pit bike Yamaha has to use for their champion MotoGP riders, and show off to the world.
The others like Honda etc, have nothing special at all.
Yamaha was very smart creating this very special sports scooter for this segment, particularly since it mimics a sports super bike. Only the Gilera Runner and Derbi GP1 came close, and they don't make them anymore.
If Piaggio were smart (they own Aprilia, Gilera & Derbi), they would make a proper Aprilia SR150 to compare with the Yamaha Aerox 155. They have a SR150 made in India, but thats just a Piaggio Typhoon that is rebadged as Aprilia. Even Honda don't have a proper premium sports version of the PCX.
I'm surprised Yamaha has not started selling the Aerox 155 in Europe yet, as they would have the market all to themselves, for aspiring young sports scooter riders, who want the best sports 155cc in the world, and dream of being MotoGP riders.
I guess sooner or later, Yamaha will release it to Europe, after seeing how massively successful the Aerox has been going in the Asean markets. [SIZE=7][SIZE=7]
