QUOTE(megahertz @ May 11 2018, 02:58 PM) btw, how so far ur xmax? ya, very tall and wideim using nmax. when compared, the seat height long like very high. want to upgrade but seem like not good for cilok jammed area. i have reduced the back end by 35mm, the front end by 20mm so i can finally flat foot one leg at traffic lights as for cilok, i'm used to it since i have been using er6n in heavy traffic too, which is taller (but narrower) and heavier (by 30kg) been using it for almost 9 days, i can say i am very satisfied the underseat cargo is VERY VERY HUGE that i dont need to put any top box liao the traction control really give you confidence during wet riding heck the rear brake disc are larger than my er6n rear disc. LOL the tall windshield, at first i thought was a hindrance, but is actually a good thing during night ride. u dont feel the cold air bashing at you but i would definitely want to try a short windscreen later. not that expensive (rm100) the only thing missing is a cargo hook for milo peng ikat tepi. haihs... |

the rear disk bigger mybe due scooter normally dont hv engine braking, thus require more braking power. for me, i really need high windshield, if not. the wind can fell quite hard if crusing around 120kmj. hv u try the top speed? and can share the maintenance price? |

QUOTE(lucifah @ May 14 2018, 10:24 AM) i got fed up with my local shop here. they say expensive bike so need to pay first then order Yes, exactly the same in my LBS. last2 i say i pay booking (they wanted rm 5k), then ask bila sampai, then they pulak tak berani commit. say maybe end of may damn, i call another shop (500km away in kuching), pay rm1k deposit, arrive 2 weeks later shipped to me, at cheaper price with free shiping LOL Require deposit but afraid to commit a date by giving excuse "depends on Hong Leong Yamaha". Actually, the real reason why our LBS don't want to take NVX or X-MAX is because they (dealer) can't just buy that particular unit. LBS must buy that particular unit packaged with other bikes which will include "sejuk models" as well. So if LBS want to sell NVX to customer, they must buy: NVX + Y15ZR / Lagenda 115 + Avantiz + FZ150i. Or something like this combo. This scenario is the same with all automotive players either cars or bikes. |
