Hi Steve, you said there is an app for customize the ride mode of the pwx-3. Can I ask you what this app is called? I own myself a Yamaha powered ebike but I failed to find it. Thanks
I think there's a lot of advertising for these but nobody's riding them. Can't see, let alone demo one at any of the 5 "dealers" in the mtb and dirtbike stronghold I live in. Kind of like a Ferrari I guess - I'll never get my hands on one, so who cares how they handle. [edit] That's Yamaha dealers. All forms of moto, road, quads, outboard, jetski etc. sold at most of each. They have mtb posters though.
This video has definitely put the Yamaha into contention for my first EMTB. It’s a bit of a minefield this research. This ticks a lot of boxes for me. Hope you enjoy
Absolutely love mine. Yamaha Australia had a 1% finance offer with no deposit required. That made it a no-brainer decision. It’s a lot of bike for the money.
Did the exact same and I absolutely love it I told myself I'd still rip trails on my hardtail and I haven't touched the poor guy since everytime I get out on the yammy I can't keep the grin off my chin
yamaha is a brand to be trusted. their stuff is solid. my yamaha pw motor is from late 2016. and now we have 2024. thats 8 years. still works no issues.
Exacly i have giant liv vall e plus 2018 woth syncdrive sport yamaha 80 nm im very still happy today no problems for uphills still good range for 500wh baterry
Great bike, but make sure to check your motor mounting screws from time to time. I lost one while riding, which resulted in a wrecked motor and frame. Warranty replacement was a bit difficult at first, but after increasing the pressure we got it sorted (took quite a few weeks). Apart from that it's an absolutely awesome bike to ride.
I've got a Moro Pro, smashing good bike, unlike other brands with motor issues this bike has performed without issue for over 2 years. Here comes the haters about the 500wh battery and the 27.5 wheels, sure it would be nice with a 625 or 700 wh battery and a mullet, but as it is I've never needed or wanted more range, I can do a 32 mile loop on one battery and that is plenty for a days ride. I know this was really a Yamaha commercial but who cares.
Ordered one here in Australia found a dealer with 50% off srp! I was looking for the 30th Anniversary but all gone in an instant they said but yeah I don’t mind the black one still beautiful! Can’t wait to take it to my local trails. Tnx for the review! A+
I'm a big fan of my Moro 07 for the terrain I am riding including some big tech climbs, and rough downhills. The suspension is the star of the bike without a doubt, and once I had it dialed in the bike has felt amazing. I thought the 27.5" wheels would be a problem, not the case and if anything its made me better at choosing my lines. Yamaha threw in a Camelbak Hydration Pak with my purchase where there is no room for a water bottle . It's funny you mention not blowing a PW-X3 motor. I threw the Torque Sensor (Code 13 I believe?) in mine within a few months. Yamaha is currently sending a replacement motor that's covered under warranty which is going to be swapped at my local shop. The geometry numbers & the 27.5" wheels raise questions to everyone, but once you go get on this bike you won't even think of it. The display unit needs some work though...
i am so hyped and proud to have become a Yamaha dealer in Vermont, USA last month! I've been in the bicycle world for over 20yrs and prior worked on motorcycles. Along with owning a YZ250 in the early 90's. Yamaha just built the epitome cross of a MTB/dirt bike!!! Along with how you stated the PRICE!! And most of all to me a company that is devoted to a quality product for their customers!! Thanks so much for this get review! Your energy puts out the trueness of these bikes and helped learn more of how bullet proof these Yamaha's are!! Now I need to go ride mine!! 😍
@rutlandcitybikes9729 This is why I just gave u a call. I have loved my Moro Pro for the past 3 seasons but the 07 SE looks like such a sweet upgrade. Looking forward to getting one from you
That bike looks really smart. It makes me think if I could persuade my other half to get an e bike I could recommend that one and ride it when she is at work. I do like the Yamaha motor on my Haibike Nduro 6
I am a 64 year old that has been riding dirt bikes and street his whole life mostly Yamaha. I own a Yamaha Moro Pro with over a thousand miles and the only problem was a loose motor mount bolt that I exchanged for a steel one. I am 5.8" and the large frame fits perfect but the biggest mistake Yamaha made was not making a XL frame option. If you are any taller than this bike is not for you. Installing the 180mm air chamber and cartridge damper is fairly inexpensive and transformed the ride especially down hill. I also went with Rental 40 mm riser bars. I use the bike for fun and to help keep me in shape and 50 miles on the battery is no problem so I see no need for a larger battery. There are allot of ebike and allot of choices in this price range especially post pandemic over inventory manufactures. Everyone likes to think of themselves as John Tomac on a mountain bike or Eli Tomac on a dirt bike. The Yamaha Moro line is made for the average rider that wants a reliable great all around preforming bike that is half the price of a new dirt bike.
Having owned a few Yamaha motorcycles I know they will produce high quality yet affordable EMTBs. It's a natural progression for them and I look forward to owning one in the future. Pity they named it after a chocolate bar though :)
When I buy this bike, which I will, will Yammy pay EMBN a commission because you convinced me to buy it? Congratulations to EMBN and Yamaha for both of your excellent work!
I wondering about how things are going to progress with Giant & Yamaha like will they be trading more tech? What a lot people don't realize is Yamaha has been in the Ebike game pretty much from the start.
Yamaha make the majority of the motors Giant use! It seems like this is going to be the case moving forward as they can work together to create optimised motors for the bikes 🤙
I play Yamaha saxophones. They are beautiful pieces of engineering. I imagine they apply the same fastidious approach to their bikes and choice of motor.
great review yamaha gives you your moneys worth only problem i have is here in the united states its almost impossible to find anyone to service the motor if need be
Very nice, I've just purchased a Haibike all mtn 10 at a slightly cheaper price with that same motor. I certainly didn't want any other due too possible reliability issues, the Japanese approach build quality in all together different way. So the all mtn 10 will sit well next to my MT 10-sp
Little side-note on Yamaha's first e-bike: it's development was fueled by Japanese government regulations that made helmets mandatory on scooters. Bicycles remained exempt from that so there was a growing market for this new solution.
As a former Yamaha powersports dealer I bleed Yamaha blue but, I was able to do a long term test on a 07 a few month ago and to say I was disappointed was an understatement. The 27.5 front and rear along with the geometry felt like I just hopped on a brand new 6 year old bike. It’s baffling to me why they went with rockshox as here in the us most are sold though powersports dealers and are marketed to moto guys that are familiar with fox, not rockshox. Unless the one you were riding has better brakes than the two we test were horrible. I expect more from the tuning fork.
Great review as always. Thank you. Love this bike, but my only concern would be range. Hopefully you can give us some range test video soon. Would love to get a feel for range with that 500Wh battery. Thank you!!
Yamaha marketing strategy. “Moro - a caramel and nougat chocolate bar by Cadbury - sold in Australia, New Zealand, and the Middle East. Solid, sweet, tasty and full of energy (if you are into sugar). Apt name for an e-MTB.”
My giant motor crank bearings failed after 8 months and giant siad it was wear and tear it's gonna cost me almost 400 pound to fix which is highly unfair not part of the warranty
All the sub 18kg bikes have less torque and power. The Yamaha is full powered. The lightest bike with full power Is the Giant Trance X Advanced E+ Elite series which start at around 19kgs. (It also happens to have the same motor as the Yamaha.)
@@jmo2752 tbh, I used a camelbak for years, since they were invented. But for the last 3 or 4 years I've gone back to wearing a hip bag and using water bottles as much more comfortable.

Hey Tony, we always declare our paid partnerships such as this one! Most importantly though, we have full control over what goes in them. So these are all the thoughts straight from the mind of Steve Jones, not scripted by anyone at Yamaha :)
Thank you for your reply to me embn. Don't get me wrong, I really like your team, and very well put together videos. Honestly, some of the best in the business. But yes, there is just a tiny bit of an impression of salesmanship, or at least... that's the way it appears. Bottom line for me is that I watch nearly all of your videos. Shalom ( peace ).
I bought one on a demo deal. Better spec'd out than my Trek and a lot cheaper MAJOR downside: NO water bottle mounts and NO telemetry/data display As well, it came with a Maxxis Rekon on the rear. They could not have put a more useless tire on the bike IMO I've been playing around with the head set for better handling. Stay tuned on my channel From the Yamaha Dealership you get a 3 year warranty!
Same as all ebikes nowadays, over priced shit! This is a £9000 bike and people wonder why they get robbed....your getting robbed when you buy one! Why don't you review practically priced bikes for the normal person rather than kissing manufacturers arse!!!
This is quite confusing, Yamaha a world renowned off-road (and more) company, the inventors of E-bike and with millions in available R&D and resources created a bike that in my honest opinion looks like a start-up company that has no idea over geometry and doesn't bring any innovation to EMTB, What I'm trying to say is this bike looks BASICand that a pity
I think this bike is aimed primarily at their motorcycle customer base and not cyclists. They are sold through the Yamaha motorcycle dealerships here in Oz.
@@andrewlovell9930 and that is a great way from Yamaha to bring this sport to the masses 👏 and for creating a well organized dealership type of strategy 🤝 Nevertheless, as bike design, innovation and attractiveness comes too, it doesn't compare to any of the USA and EU powerhouses.

@@streddaz pinion made an Epinion over a year ago. They will be rolling out this year on some affiliated brands. It took the ebike to a completely different level!
@@toddhurdon2016 if reliable the Pinion MGU should be a game changer for full powered Ebikes, but getting it in the mainstream brands bikes maybe difficult. For one they have committed to a motor brand (and therefore mounting interface) already, plus SRAM and Shimano have a lot of pulling power for what gets fitted to larger volume bikes due to discounts for drivetrain/suspension/brake packages. Remove a drivetrain out of that deal and the discount won't be as favourable. Brose have a motor/gearbox unit in the works so at least there will be a second brand that will have the combined drivetrain in the market.

You made a great choice. I’ve had my Yamaha for five years and it is fantastic not one single problem.
This video has definitely put the Yamaha into contention for my first EMTB. It’s a bit of a minefield this research. This ticks a lot of boxes for me. Hope you enjoy
Yeah, I mean it’s not cheap, but seems like a good balance of quality suspension and transmission, plus it’s got a twin top tube like my Stooges! 😋
Welcome to the wonderful world of Emtbs. You'll go further, climb higher, and do it more often. The fun has just begun...😊
Cheers! Does anyone know what hubs they use as would like to swap cassette bodies and use my SRAM AXS….?

I worked with Yamaha Motorcycles for a long time, that seems to be a very good price and well put together. Love the frame design.
I love mine.Also if you buy before March ,you get a 5 year warranty and a free extra battery.Looks good next to my wr250r and Tenere 700.
You had me at 5 year warranty! Could you imagine if Brose did that….. they’d go bust!
Is that a GB thing (extra battery) or is it the same across the EU? Also what was the price? Ps. It'll look good next to my R1,R6 and TTR as well 😊
Congratulations, it looks awesome.
