Usually at least 1 month. It's the same as all the hot Yamaha models (NVX, Y15V2, R15, etc.) but depends on the store you're buying from. Some of them have higher priority than others.

Yup, pretty much this. It's considered a big bike/maxi scoot. But for all the technologies that it packs (switchable traction control and dual channel ABS), it's the cheapest of the bunch.

These shop owners are ultimately businessmen, and Yamaha also running a business. These 'production problems' are basically a reason for some of them to drive up the OTR price or straight up decline cash payment so that you have to pay loan price.

In my case, I originally wanted to get NVX. Waited one and a half months still no stock. Ended up getting a NMAX that was available there. My friend who got MT-09 also had to wait nearly 2 months to get his bike.

Next time, I'm getting a Honda or Kawi bike. Less hassle, just trade in and bike is out within days or a week at most. Most places have ready stock too.

Apologies for the rant, but trying to get a Yamaha scooter was one of the worst times I've had making a purchase.

Thank You

Sounds almost exactly like what happened to my friend with his MT09. He paid cash on top of that.

Hope you get your bike soon bro.

How's the review on XMAX 250 so far?

What kind of speed did you do for that kind of fuel consumption?

Probably best to take it to a Yamaha Star Shop.

If maintain 110 km/h, how much is the consumption like? On my Honda PCX, it was about 30km/litre. I am just wondering.

why not take nmax ?
since its lighter and cheap maintenance. the only cons is not nice and fast like xmax.

xmax quite heavy, high seat, hard to cilok2 when jem because of wide body.

Guess you're expecting the pillion to swing their legs across from the back? Luckily my pillion is my 10 year old son, he climbs first to his seat before I get to the bike. Haven't try with wifey yet

TQ bro. ya I can afford to jatuh bodoh but not my mom 
I think as long as I am off the bike and the bike itself is stable on the ground, I can help her with the sliding and landing.
One more ques, I understand the seat is quite high, I am 170cm, will there be any challenge extending the side stand while me and a pillion still on the bike?
