Hi @Joel Huang, you will need both the 27mm (deep socket) and a 29mm (normal) socket to remove the variator. Sorry left out this part of the disassembly as it was quite tedious to remove. If you dont have the variator locking wrench (proprietary tool), the cordless impact wrench will still work. You will need the high torque ones though.

douglas murphy it took me roughly 1.5hrs with the whole work + camera work. Was trying to be extra cautious since it was my first time doing the break down. Thanks for watching my video. 👍🏽

Thanks for getting back to me, sorry it took a while to reply as I have been on holiday for a few weeks ! The TMax is a great machine, I am on my 4th and my latest is the 530DX. Cheers@@rahmath850

Hi rahmat,my 1st time owning a scooter Tmax 530,where can get the inner n outer belt sets? May i know roughly the price? Appreciate ur reply

Hussein Said I bought mine online. My v belt costs ard $250 for an aftermarket. I have seen the drive belt go for $300+ for an original part from Yamaha. I have not changed my drive belt yet. Will upload a video on changing out the drive belt when the time comes.

@@rahmath850 250$ for a v belt is extreme! Just buy from malossi of polini its way cheaper! And indeed drivebelt is expensive but i think that are the same as the alieexpres ones if you look carefully😂😂

and replaced every 20,ooo km or 12,000 miles

Hi Umar, personally, i think the xmax will be better suited for delivery rides. Its lighter, nimble and more fuel efficient. Dont get me wrong, the tmax is fine too but, its wider and longer for those lane splitting and weaving thru traffic situation. The basic maintenance for the tmax is not expensive but all the additional stuff like belts/filters etc, is going to cost slightly more than the normal bikes.

@@rahmath850 and the tmax isnt very cheap to ride in terms of fuel efficent

I do deliveries on tmax.. i tell you what.. maintenance cost is high 🙃
