Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha T-MAX 530 ABS 2016

The Yamaha TMAX sets the bar high in the luxury scooter segment. The powerful 530cc two-cylinder pushes mightily, motorway stages should not be a problem. The sound and handling are more reminiscent of a motorbike than a scooter - in a positive sense. Comfort is also good, so holiday trips should not be a problem. Only the high weight and the dimensions of the TMAX are annoying, in the city you need almost the same space as a car. On top of that, the price is high, which will probably make the TMAX more of an exotic on our roads.
