HONG Leong Yamaha Motor (HLYM) melancarkan pra tayang Yamaha X-Max 250 untuk pasaran tempatan. Harap bersabar, abang, kakal dan adik skuter sekalian perlu menunggu hingga Mac nanti sebelum model itu dibenarkan berada di negara tercinta ini.

Jadi, buat masa sekarang, HLYM memutuskan untuk tidak mengumumkan harga X-Max 250. Menurut HLYM, harga skuter itu adalah di bawah RM25,000

Jangan cakap banyak, kita baca dulu 5 fakta pantas tentang Yamaha X-Max 250:

1.  ENJIN BERKUASA
Enjin 4-lejang 249cc SOHC penyejukan cecair berkuasa 20hp @ 7,500 rpm dan tork 21Nm (6,000rpm), manakala hantaran kuasa ke roda belakang disalurkan sistem transmisi V-Belt Automatik.

2. DIMENSI
Dimensi panjang (2160mm), lebar (790mm) dan tinggi (1385mm). Tinggi pelana 785mm agak tinggi, manakala kapasiti tangki minyak pula 13.2 liter dengan berat jentera 182kg. Jarak kelegaan tanah cukup baik dan tinggi, iaitu 125mm yang pasti memudahkan skuter Yamaha ini meredah sebarang bonggol dan laluan tidak rata.

3. SUSPENSI
Bahagian suspensi menggunakan fork teleskopik bersama travel 110mm di depan, dan dua unit absorber spring bersama travel 84mm (belakang). Tugas membrek diserahkan kepada cakera tunggal 267mm (depan) dan 240mm (belakang) berserta ciri Sistem Keselamatan Anti-Kunci (ABS).
Tayar depan bersaiz 120/70 R15 dan tayar belakang bersaiz 140/70 R14.

4. PENAMPILAN
Dilengkapi dua unit lampu depan LED dan dipadankan visor pengadang angin untuk keselesaan tunggangan jauh. Bahagian sisi terhidang ekzos besar dan ada pula ruang simpananc ukup luas yang mampu menampung dua helmet .

Tidak ketinggalan, soket mengecas atas papan pemuka. Seksyen belakang pula tersedia lampu henti gaya ramping, ditarik sepanjang sisi badan hingga belakang yang memberikan imej sporty.

Bahagian instrumen mengadunkan paduan panel digital dan analog yang dibahagikan kepada tiga kluster. Kiri dan kanan ialah panel analog, manakala tengah adalah panel digital.

5. CIRI KESELAMATAN
Selain ABS, skuter itu dipasangkan fungsi immobiliser dan kawalan jauh menerusi kunci pintar, dipanggil Sistem Smart Key Keyless Ignition.

RM25k for 250cc scooter is too expensive. Can compare with 150cc Nmax and point what's difference to justify RM15k differences?

Honda Forza 2017 selling at MYR25,800K pun x jalan. 
Honda NSS300 Forza 2017

Honda Forza 2016 selling at Mudah for 27,500 pun x jalan. 
HONDA NSS300 Forza 2016

So hopefully HLY has better pricing structure and better specs! :grin:

Betcha lots of current scooter/kapcai rider that just want to commute everyday looking for 250cc upgrade for a bit more oomph, but don't want big bulk like sym/elegan 250

Indonesian version had traction control, here only ABS? yet there selling cheaper?

HLYM kuat jack harga woo

Honda Forza 2017 selling at MYR25,800K pun x jalan. 
Honda NSS300 Forza 2017

Honda Forza 2016 selling at Mudah for 27,500 pun x jalan. 
HONDA NSS300 Forza 2016

So hopefully HLY has better pricing structure and better specs!

Need B full license - that the stumbling block for most riders. 

another point would be .. the price is 25k+ for 300cc its a suicidal for them...

same as Kawa J300/ ZXR300, and the benelli TNT300...

and if u compare with other scooter, this xmax got few other scooter dont hv, keyless remote, TCS, ABS,
and since its Yamaha, much more expensive   
kymco downtown 250cc rm21k
kawasaki j300 rm31k ( based on kymco downtown 300)
honda nss300 rm27k
Aprilia SR Max 300  RM31k
SYM Maxsym 400i RM26k

Those model that you mentioned, except the Maxsym 400i are cold selling here in Malaysia.. Let see if this  Yamaha scoot can break the barrier..

if I am not mistaken, the majority of biker mentality in Malaysia once they need to fork more than 20k++ pricing barrier for a bike and scoot .. 1st thing they ask TOP SPEED..

Features come 2nd...

Aside note:

Durign the launch of Kymco XCT 400i and Maxsym 400i they sell within the same price range, but the capacity offered are higher (400cc or almost) ...and it sells...

u right. malaysian still dont like scooter.
if they have 20k, they like to buy normal big bike.

even compared within 150cc, those who buy nvx/nmax/pcx is just for fun, for works, already used big bike before or veteran just want to hv fun and some got people with legs/backhone injured etc.
im using nmax myself, most of people in the club group as i mentioned above.
