Hi guys, I live in Shah Alam and work in KL city. I am planning to get a Xmax too. Could sifu here share with me the below:

1. What is the OTR price? Any recommendation which shop to buy from?
2. It's my first time buying a new bike, hence I have no idea which hire purchase financier offers the best rate. Some said to me personal loan rate is lower than Aeon. Is that true?
3. What is the maximum tenure for the repayment?
4. How much is the maintenance fee? How often is the maintenance needed?
5. Any recommendation on security lock and how much is it?

In my experience, the official Yamaha Service Centres are more thorough with their service. They actually follow the manual to some degree (checking your controls, if the forks are leaking and any other sign of damage) and they ride your bike after they service it to test it first.

On the other hand, most bengkel will just change your oil and then hand you back the bike.

How much will it cost for servicing XMAX?

For scooter, you or your pillion have to do the "girl' way.. swing the leg front 1st then climb up...

Pillion naik first or the biker naik first?
What about bila turun? I am visualizing it will be easier if the biker get off the bike first before the pillion. However, I also understand the bike is very heavy.
Anyone can share ur experiece? As I may be getting one XMAX and may have to fetch my 60 yo mom.

Very informative. TQ bro.
As for getting off the bike, do you think extending the bike stand first and then biker get off the bike and then give a hand to the pillion to get off is a good idea?
Sorry for asking too much, I am used to kapcai only.

Ya, thats one of my concerns. Currently I am driving her to work in the morning. Getting a bike is to save more time and other cost.

I think using the side stand as a backup when getting off the scooter is a good idea. Just in case to avoid "jatuh bodoh" situation.
But also, looking the the seat, I'm not sure of your 60 y.o. mom can slide down easily from the pillion to the rider's seat.  hmm.gif

TQ bro. ya I can afford to jatuh bodoh but not my mom sad.gif
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?
