- This is the upgraded for 2020 Tmax. Still costing a whole bunch of money, yamaha did some small improvements, and enlarged the engine for Euro-5 Compliance.
Come find out why it costs 11k Euros!

i have a 2019 530 tmax,and ride it steady as i am 72 years old.but i love it.
No reviewers mention the fact has a belt drive. No maintenance for 12k miles. If you have impact gun easy to change yourself. I do hate chain maintenance because i am 63 and bending and kneeling is hassle. I have just sold my xmax 250 and 1100cc motorcycle and i am headed for one of these. Its a mix of my last two. Love your reviews cager
This is how a motorcycle review should be done. Well done. Thanks for posting.
Cager is a bad man putting temptation in my way. First time I've seen him without his helmet as well. I've bought two scooters on the strength of his reviews so motorcycle manufacturers take note.
Great review. I own a TMAX. Best bike I have ever owned. I've owned over 10 bikes. Amazing machine
Bro, super cool to film you! Congratulations for the evolution on videos editing skills, now it is just keep going...
Master, gostei de filmar contigo! Muitos parabéns pela evolução no video! Agora é só continuar:)
Wonderful review I thought your old review format was good but this new format is magnificent and the inclusion of cagerina nice!!
Is nice to see you again Cager! Great video as usual!!!
I can't really believe this is happening! New video from you! That's fantastic!
Good to have you back doing review..love the new way you did the close up explanation of the bike.👍👍👍👍
Great to see you back 🙂🏍🏴
Welcome back cager! Good to see you’re well 🙂
@Jc Orem R u dumb its a scam.
Nice to see you back ✌🏽
Awesome review cager great to see you back doing what you do best making all bikes interesting and exciting. 😄👍🏻🏍👍😊
Really enjoyed your review. I've just purchased a Tech Max 560 and agree with all your comments.
Very good review bro. Specially the part that you present the night driving was amazing.
Welcome back. Great review as ever, in fact better than ever.
I loved my older TMax 500 apart from it hurting my back due to weight on the cocix. Wish this one had a little more horsepower but pretty nice overall. Sadly no space in my garage.
Great review as always bro!But the end, with Cagerina...best part!!! 🤣
I like your videos. Very authentic and informativ. And by the way I´ve just ordered a Tmax Techmax (second one after the previous DX). All the best to you...
Cager is back and even better than ever! I toast to you with some chilled beer and to your health Cager, keep them rolling ;-)
Nice to see you again• You have changed your style and I like this too.
Its good to see you again! :)
I'm jealous when i see you live in such a beautiful place the whole year!
HE'S BACK!
Glad to see you back on two wheels.
Your videos are getting better, Keep it up!!! Ride safe.
Fantastic detailed review Cager..👌🏽👌🏽 I love watching your stuff you're very clear, and have a great sense of humour, and certainly know your stuff.. I'm glad you included Cagerina as it was great to see how much space there is for a pillion passenger .. as I usually carry three different pillion passengers including my wife ..on my Xmax.. looks like this is certainly my next bike..Love the classy ending 😘👌🏽😁 👏🏽👏🏽😊😊
Absolutely superb review cager... I now have one of these the 560 tech absolutely beautiful machine just like you said 👍🏽👍🏽😁
It's about time. A real review.
Fantastic review Cager 🙏🏼👍🏼
Thanks for another great review.
Does anyone doubt he had a smile the entire test? Awesome review and awesome bike!!
Nice to see you back online cager! I enjoy the reviews! I think I live close by based on your last vids. Could you share where you’re riding in this video?
Great review Cager 👍 theses scooters are becoming something else and will relieve the traffic congestion in England 🏴 aka London if more people rode them 👊
PS it’s great to have you back and in person
Been trying to decide what urban run about to get your enthusiatic review has made up my mind thank you
Hi bro nice to have u back 🤘
You Back brother 👏👏👏
Great review. I own tmax 530 dx 2019 and I apsolutly love it. Scooter, motor and cruiser in one.
Welcome back Cager. The country is looking nice and green. Nice scooter but very expensive
It's kinda weird seeing your face in your video 😂, anyway welcome back man!!!
Já tinha saudades destes vídeos de testride. Que bela mota sem dúvida. Para a cidade, voltas maiores, um pouco de autoestrada, quem não se quiser chatear com as mudanças e gostar do design de scooter vale os 13000€ certamente 🏍️👏
Excellent review! Thanks. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have one of these bro thank you for a wonderful and marvelous review👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽😁 I agree with everything you say💚🙏🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Weird thing... when switching to high beam - looks like low beam are shut off.
In my N-max after switching to high bream - low beam still on - lot more light at side. (LED lights as well)
Great review 👍
Man, way to rub it in, that we can't get it in the US....... Here' it's Xmax, then Goldwing, as far as "Scooters" (luggage, automatic, feet forward) go. And now, with Covid, too much of a pain to go to Europe and rent one. :(
Good to see you back! Your bouncing around like you never had an injured leg at all!
This was very good! :-)
Hi. Great review. Obrigado. Hey, wondering did you have any concerns about the Sport windshield at motorway speeds? I know you mentioned it, but did you get a chance to compare it to the conventional shield? I understand the sports one offers less protection. Wondering if you found it at all loud / inconvenient at high speed? Thanks!
Finally back on two wheels instead of crutches!
You could do a series of high end maxi scoots with engines bolted to the frame(unlike the traditional engine-rear swingarm assembly) to compare. Like the AK550, you already did the Integra and the X-ADV
I would love to see how the AK550 compares to the T-Max too!
Wow never realised about LED low beams great indepth review
Me, neither.
Cager I bought an xj6 diversion as my first bike. You think you had something to do with the choice ?
Let’s hope that rear suspension works well. As much as I loved most of the concept of my Yamaha Majesty the jarring effect of the rear suspension ruined the whole thing for me. Even on the softest setting the ride was unacceptable.
Good to see the Cager back “on the job”!
Cager I bought Kymco Ak550 4 months ago (They don't have the Tmax here in the USA). I'm super happy with the Kymco, I believe it's better then the older Tmax 530!
Nice ride...
Nc750 integra or 560 tmax
Which one you found better.
Cool road test
I had 2 Tmax now I have a 2015 Honda Valkyrie I miss the Tmax soooooo much fun
Legend
Kudos on your English man!
Now I know what Cager looks like. I wish it always remained the mystery like Robinhood
Good for the city and the motorway too. For this price, it'd be perfect if it had an extra 10hp in the engine at least as an optional upgrade
Upgrade clutch and variator problem solved
I have a Suzuki 400 (Burgman).. such a great all around riding machine. However, if Yamaha would bring the TMax to the states, I’d buy one in a heart beat.this is such a wonderful bike.
That was a good review Of the 560. I don't know if it was the video but when you had the low beam on There was a big difference when you went to high beam. The low beam flooded the road But it was like the low beam got shut off when you want to Put the high beam on. You can see down the road but the same distance I've everything you see in the low beam suddenly isn't there. If that's the way it's built it's a serious flaw. If both lights were on totally fledged the road was light. I hope you see my point when you look back at the video you made. I'm referring to these separate videos what's in this one. I thought I would point that out and ask you what you think.
Did you notice that about the bike?
Maybe a follow up review Might be a good idea if you can get your hands on the bike again.
When dancing has full lights they Would be impressive to drive at night.
It would be way easier to sell the Bike To anybody.
Autocycle cause it's Not really a Scooter.
Thats my dream bike sir. Hehe hope someday il ride my wife and son in that tmax scooter. Nice review sir. Thnx, God bless
Common. Let's get started!!!
yo dud, I just wonder if the AK exhaust comes with original bike?
Perfect bike
My Forza 300 has the engine engaged to the wheel all the time above 3000 rpm. So it always breaks with the engine.
I really want this bike after I do my A2 licence, hopefully in the next year
Seriously... insist on a test-ride first. I didn't. The noise is..... well, to me it's like a broken 2-stroke bike being thrashed around a broken washing machine, and that's from brand new.
It may be to your liking, of course.
Been a while since I have seen your bike videos (or anyone's).
Searched for your 2017 Tmax video so I could include it in my For Sale post on Facebook and saw that there's a new update.
No comment on the sound of the bike this time, it seems.
Suppose if it has the aftermarket Akro.... thingy it's probably not any quieter than the standard one??
Great video, thanks. Keep 'em coming!
...........
Anyone in the market for a late-2018-registered Tmax 530 DX with 1,000 (one thousand) kilos on the clock?
If you're in Central Japan and willing to pay 2/3 of the retail price for a virtually unused bke...
hi cager, hope you can test the honda forza 750 soon
Please could you review the AK550 by Kymco and compare it to the T-Max?
He compared the 2017 Tmax to the then current AK550 if I remember rightly. If there is still no AK550 upgrade, then that review/comparison will still be relevant.
Excellent review, but like the look of your helmet. What's the name.
Mid way through the video," wake the fuck up , we have a city to burn" 😂
rumored to have the battery up front to take allot apart to get the battery out ?? really. I thought it was ridiculous on my 2011; Going backwards on thinking. 2002 had it in the rear which was very ez.
Fuel consumption??
can you test a integra?
Are this is what you look like!
Your got a great voice
Great video. If this is the queen of scooters, then the king of scooters should be the X-ADV in my opinion ;) This is why I preferred an X-ADV. It's a lot cheaper, a lot stronger, and can go off-road with better suspension :)
X-ADV it's not in the same segment...
No storage on xadv. And too heavy and tall.
@@weslee6637 and chain drive :(
@@weslee6637 The weight is pretty much the same. The 750 Hondas have the lovely DCT and are actually economical. 3.5 litres vs 5 litres is a HUUUUUGE difference. Plus the 750‘s are quite a bit cheaper
I owned both the X-Adv 750 and the Tmax 530 n Tmax 560. I prefer the Tmax for my daily commuting and city riding. Much more nimbler and feels lighter than the X-Adv 750.
Can you review a Forza 750 and Compare your impressions please?
I just got Honda 350cc forza, probably update will be on Tmax 560cc. Forza front suspension terrible.
Just a question did you test the Kymco ak550?
He compared the 2017 Tmax to the then current AK550 if I remember rightly. If there is still no AK550 upgrade, then that review/comparison will still be relevant.
I dont want to forget Im riding a scooter when im riding a scooter....- The whole point of scooters: Super comfortable and super practical. This one happens to be pretty fast too. # never be ashamed of being a scooterist:)
It has a handbrake so hill starts you dont need to hold brake in.
"Because it is a scooter, you don't have engine braking"...Mr Burgman 650 would like to have a word...
Please do sh 125!!!
Try a sym tl500 and kymco ak550 next to compare please.
He compared the 2017 Tmax to the then current AK550 if I remember rightly. If there is still no AK550 upgrade, then that review/comparison will still be relevant.
@@staninjapan07 i am asking for the comparison of a tl500 and ak550 its nothing to do with a tmax
How many times u gonna say it’s a scooter
She's one kinky girl the cagerina :))
Nice scooter, I'd like to have one but have no use for it.
Yeah...I don't believe Yamaha's power figures either! How come the recent models are so much faster than the earlier ones, despite apparently having almost the same power? How can a Tmax keep up with a Kymco AK550 despite having 4 or 5 less bhp?? Yes, the TMax is FUN!
Would you take a old version to this one??
I like the T-Max but not the sound, they should redesign it with a 270 degree crank. Kymco 550 has this and it sounds much nicer.
I, too, dislike the sound.
I bought a brand new 530 DX in late 2018 and it has not done more than a thousand kilometres.
I tried to take it back when I bought it, but the dealer said he would give me half what I had just paid.
Sell it or use noise-cancelling headphones, those are my choices, but riding with headphones is illegal here in Japan.
It still sits under a cover in the underground car park of my apartment.
@@staninjapan07 its my dreambike how can you not injoy it
@@silentinvestor The answer is simple, and it is what I wrote above. The sound is simply awful. In a less polite mood, I would liken it to an old 2-stroke scooter being abused by an even older washing machine. From 3,500 RPM to 4,800 RPM - exatly the RPM range of riding on regular roads, the tinny whining noise is just nasty. For 1,500,000 yen - or about 15000 US or 10,000 GBP, it is simply not acceptable to be so very poorly made.
I traded in a PERFECT 2013 V-Strom, which I had had from new, and with very low mileage, and fully main dealer serviced for a piece of bike failure that should go down in history as Yamaha's worst machine ever.
That is simply my opinion.
I cannot wait to change it back for a real bike from a proper maker.
Honda next time.
I need a bike withno clutch lever as my laft hand hurst a lot on longer rides, which is the ONLY reason I swapped the PERFECT 2013 Suzuki.
The background is nice at the start, but the lighting is the opposite from what it should be. That means that your face and the entire bike is in shadow - black. We cannot see anything! Then when you start riding, you ride towards the sun! Blinding!
Someone's waiting for Cyberpunk!
I love this scooter but again will we see it in the US, probably not this year. Honda and Yamaha are great tortures of the US market withholding bikes they think won’t sell because they send over anemic versions at 150cc that no one wants here. The market is changing here for scooters and they are missing the mark completely by withholding the bigger scooters. Terrible marketing personnel. Fire them all
i will buy this when i sell my xmax 300
good woman, loves a helmet!
I hope is in english.
