So I am currently in the market for a 150cc scooter and am currently eyeing the Yamaha Nmax V2, mainly for the looks and ergonomics. But the thing about it is that it doesn't hav ABS, which is confusing, considering that the NVX V2 comes with ABS option. And the latter also comes with Y-Connect, which is also a plus.

So I would like to know what other options is available in the market for a 150cc scooters other than these 2 or the Honda PCX and the Honda 150 Adv? Pricing below rm14k (I'm in Borneo).

Preferably something that comes with ABS and has a large underseat storage that could fit a full size helmet. I'm gonna be mainly do city rides, with occasional long tours (twisty mountain roads with uneven pavement) so a plush seat + good suspension setup is a huge plus.

Thanks!

From your list, ADV150 tick most of the boxes...but not sure how it fares for long tours....maybe pcx owner can share their exp a bit (same engine)

I rarely see PCX otr, only reviews online from our brothers on the other side of the ocean. For ADV150, I reckoned it would be great for long tours, but I did see on fb that some owners said that the bike doesn't really do the adventure as well as it was marketed. And the price and availability is something that push me away a bit.

Ya...it's just reskin version of PCX....and agree with the price...but since it got ABS, maybe suite with your requirement.

for 150cc scoot, I would personally choose Nmax due to relaxed seating position, competitive price and better performance than ADV.

Numbawan Motorcycle in the World is Honda.
Followed by Bajaj or Hero i cant remember.

Yamaha only Numbawan in MY.
No doubt Yamaha aesthetic dem gooding.
but long term performance and maintenance is Hondua...

no..both are equally horrible.

The wing brand got rattling issue at cover area, tensioner issue, coil issue, rear signal broke...etc.

Maybe numbawan for CBU unit.


else, it's suzuki. but the aesthetic not so good

I've heard that the wmoto scooters es250i or quite possibly the soon to be launched xdv250i is kambing aka not rain friendly. A bit sad since looking forward for an affordable lean city scooter with ample displacement.

That's the character of Piaggio designed engine..

All Vespa has that.. also Recently just did test ride the SR GT Aprilia, also Vibrates while idling, maybe due to that Italians put stop start feature during idling.
