True. He got installed some carbon fiber parts oso. With profender lagi. Aku terus beli lah.

Tbh, if you rly need that extra 330cc, just buy the forza 250. Then change head, cam, piston and block (honda ori brand). Cost is around 3k - 5k to upspec.

Just curious can I know whats special about this bike? Sorry my knowledge on bikes is totally 0. Why wouldn't anyone buy like those superbike for the same price?

Practical, smooth and easy to use.

But honestly, its about minat. Macam hobby car. Big boy toys. Ada wang, just beli. Pakai sebulan dua, jual dan tukar beli lain pulak.

Mostly because I’m a lazy rider. I am after an auto bike that’s easy to ride without worrying about changing gears. A bike that’s not shaped like a fat scooter but still provide ample room under the seat for storage. And a bike with an engine that’s powerful but not too much for daily use in the city.

ADX 160 better

Easier to buy for sure.

Different categories, just like cars got sedan, suv etc

Not everyone like superbike riding position

hahaha... yeah. So many X-Max V1 owners also did this type of upgrade. 300/350/363cc.

You can actually do that kind of modification? To change a 250cc scooter to become a 350+cc? I have an ADV160. Can change to 250+cc?

Legally ... I dont think so.

Then again, this is Boleh land ya.

For the X-Max and some other maxi-scooter, can.
Because the block, piston, camshaft, etc are all available as original factory components. So can just plug & play.
As you know, in Malaysia the X-Max is 250cc but in Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines their X-Max is 300cc.
So there are many original Yamaha parts to go the big bore route with minimal cost.

I'm not sure about Adv 160. I thnk maybe have some brands (maybe Thai or Indo brands) that might have.

Correct. Legally, no. But if you see those X-Max on convoys laju laju type, majority are all big bore.

I wonder how much difference on wheel for that 50cc increase on the xmax.

If from 250 to 350 then its a different story.

TBH, I'm also not sure. Maybe got some slight improvements la.
AFAIK, most of them after doing the big bore conversion, the shop also does dyno in-house but I haven't managed to see the dyno charts.
