Wanted to get a bike for taman ride and occasionally commute to work which is 20++ km away ( one way ).
Which bike is more suitable..??
for me ..PCX cons is too big for taman ride and the price
Vario cons is too small for long ride..
What you can can advise and share your experience will be much appreciated.

Thanks

Get the Vario. Its 3K cheaper than the PCX. That 3K you can get a box and improve the versatility of the Vario.

NVX price very high oh........ If not mistaken around 13K right ? No doubt the most powerful scooter now at 155 CC.

Ya Vario can save some $$ but izzit ok to travel thru highway / long distance. I don wan the box, just get a good backpack..
NVX what i see is almost identical with vario but the price...
Even the NVX i suppose will feel the same as what Vario offer when ride in highway right

Hybrid..didn't think of it but the higher price put it out of my consideration...
But generally PCX is build bigger for more stable ride right..and more storage space..
For power, i think 150cc is enough for me..i just ride slowly and safely

150cc is powerful enough to go into highway...

Rode Modenas Elegan 150cc from KL to Phuket for 2days back in 2005.. true story..

Why not NMAX? cheaper, since you put NVX into the table before...

ok. Best would be NVX due to ABS.

Looks Vario or NVX

Long distance comfort, PCX, NMax. since only 20km, still short journey. but if you consider long distance, PCX or NMax is better as riding position helps.

Spare Parts: Yamaha is easier to source compared Honda.

I have a PCX (2015) and my son used it to commute Kuantan - Shah Alam for a couple of time last year. All good. thumbup.gif Comfy.

My brother just got his Vario last week. Similar engine with PCX (150cc) but small under seat compartment.

PCX - 130kg
Vario - 112kg

Not much different. Similar.

20km is nothing. Even a smallish Ego LC Fi 125cc can do it. whistling.gif
