This scooter looks super capable. Wow I'm impressed. I was in the market for an XMAX. But this looks like it's more than enough for my usage.

I would say if you have the money go for the XMAX. If not, the SMAX is right behind it.

$5000?! MSRP is $3799 (which you should never pay). Even with tax it shouldn't have been 5K. Oh well, we have no sales tax here in Montana and Motorcycle/Scooter registration/plates are a one time lifetime cost. Glad we moved out of California 16yrs ago.... 5K? Whew....
@dakotawagner23282 жыл бұрын
Tax wouldn't have made it jump that high. Tax in this area would only add an additional ~300 dollars, little higher with registration and DMV fees. The main culprit are dealership fees that they slap on. Dumb stuff like "processing fees". Not a California thing, just a shitty dealership thing.

Hey man, whats going on, i have a quick question. ¿Is it good for highways? Im thinking of buying one because i feel it is very comfy and easy to have. I am used to have a scooter because in Colombia it is very versatile but now that i am living here in US, im not sure of the rules o laws about driving one on highways and this kind of things
@AndreiN.2 жыл бұрын
It's pretty good on highways, I wouldn't recommend it for constant use or long rides on the highway either. anything over 150cc is legal on highways in California, and the SMAX is 155cc

That lane splitting is a stupid maneuver. 🤔Some people swerve over to make a lane change hoping someone will let them in with signals on. If they don’t see you coming,guess who becomes a flying missile . Safe motorcyclist would not do these crazy antics . Well it’s your body to fly over cars as you wish. 😬

I just got a new S max also. I love it and I have on order the same windshield that you have. What concerns me is the amount of wiggle that you can see in the windshield as you’re going down the road. I would think that would be rather annoying I’ve never had a windshield will go quite that much. Any advice

The difference between the PCX and the SMAX is basically 5cc. In the USA 155cc is highway legal and 150cc is not. So that is why I went SMAX over PCX. Both great scooters.

5 thousand out the door? msrp is 3799. its a great scooter. if your happy with it don't worry about what you paid. (maybe it has to do with California) but anyone else watching because your thinking of buying one, 4000 to 4200 max.

Something doesn't add up about the mpg. You said you can go about 90 miles on a tank (14:30). It has a 2 gal tank. If you do the math that's only 45mpg. Did you mean to say 190miles?
@AndreiN.2 жыл бұрын
On Yamaha's website for the 2020 SMAX they tell you it has a 2.0 gal fuel capacity and they spec it as 81mpg which maths out to ~160 miles. I personally do a lot of highway riding and get only 130 miles on a full tank if I'm not full twist but when I average 70-75mph for long periods of time obviously this number drops to what I said in the video, ~90 miles until I get to the start of the "low fuel" red bar. Maybe it's just me riding my scooter like a sports bike.
