The plastic is one of the strongest one. My got knocked down my a car i thought it was over. To my surprise it just a few scratches that i didn't even bother to try to fix.
I also do delivery , but in my corolla, but im looking to get this scooter, soon, i was looking at the ruckus , but i rather have a bit more power and this zuma looks much better .
I came from motorcycles to scooters & use my left hand like a clutch to help control at low speed. I don't like linked brakes. Especially on smaller scooters.
I am thinking of getting one when I get back to Thailand in a few weeks. Have a Yamaha 125 freego there has done 16000kms all over southeast Asia. I think the zuma would be a better option for some of the dirt roads I travel..
That so cool . New to mortocycle or scooters does it feel awkward driving scooter never tried but looks like awkward sitting position is it comfortable?
I do delivery with ebike, but plan on getting scooter, my choice is piaggio liberty 150cc, it has same price range as zuma, bigger wheel, ABS braking and ofourse 2 years of warranty, downside I can't find any mod for it, so I can forget about 3rd party parts, I'm scratching my head between zuma and piggio liberty 150, what do you think??
Yamaha is a way better build. It’s less motor but I have done 65 on the freeway. And just doing an exhaust and remap will make the Zuma much faster. Just the suspension is trash
@@rahi7339 it’s definitely gonna be a bit more power considering the engine size. If the piaggio fits your needs, get that one. I have owned several Yamaha motorcycles and never had a break down. I just prefer the reliability of Yamaha. If you plan on doing highways, get the piaggio.
Just an all around really cool looking scoot ! My dealer received the blue one .It was nice but i want the all black, I put a deposit on the only black one they are getting in a few weeks . I plan on putting the crash bars on it and headlight guard as well as a bunch of other cool things i found online to make it look the part, it will make it look really utilitarian .Will be fun .I am not new to scoots .I have a few Vespas so this will be my ride when weather doesnt look so good and ill keep the Vespas nice
Hi. I enjoyed your video. I have the 2021 and I would like to ask you to send me a link for your Samson phone holder you like. I could not find it on Amazon. Thanks.
Nice video, Eddie. I’ve got a 2013 and love it. Although I prefer the more naked look of the earlier models, the 2022 has a lot of features under that plastic that Zuma owners have been asking for and having to mod themselves. Congratulations on your purchase. 🛵💨💨💨
NIce bike, I'm a bigger guy too 6'4" 190ibs.. but comfort is super important.. Too bad Yamaha didn't give it larger, fatter, bubble tires AND gave it a MUCH better suspension/shock absorbers.. That really would help with the ride.. Also, I like the simple, analog speedometer.. Because of those reasons .. I have to pass on this bike.
Yea someone complained about you using the f word..but i think with ur channel being call FN diaz is a good heads up , that you may use adult language lol!
I have a 2021 Zuma 125cc. I absolutely love it!
Thanks for the info on the phone mount!
Great video dude!!!... really appreciate the time you took to explain about this scooter. Thank you!
Thanks for watching and glad it helped!
You can get a wrench (C-spanner) that will adjust the shocks. Since you're a big guy so set it as firm as it will go & it'll ride better.
The plastic is one of the strongest one. My got knocked down my a car i thought it was over. To my surprise it just a few scratches that i didn't even bother to try to fix.
Yea, it feels really high quality and it retains a good shine over time
Wish they had a 150cc version for the US.
It would have really made it a better bike
With small mods to unrestrict this, you'll get plenty power enough to make it act like a 150cc or more
I here people all the time saying the can barley get to 60mph. Mine does 62-64 easy and I’m 6’6” tall and 315 lbs. 🤷♂️
Yea I agree. I take mine on the freeway and it will do 60+
How does registration work on these??
It’s considered a motorcycle so the same steps as registration for a motorcycle.
People forget or don't realize the bike doesn't hit peak performance until after 1000 miles
What's the set up for deliveries? I wanna do the same but I'm concerned about the rack. Carrying the delivery bag on my back is not an option.
Usually you can fit it all in the trunk under the seat. You could also put a basket in the back or front. Just get ready for a stiff ride
I also do delivery , but in my corolla, but im looking to get this scooter, soon, i was looking at the ruckus , but i rather have a bit more power and this zuma looks much better .
Yea, the zuma definitely is a near perfect scooter. Affordable, functional, freeway possible and everyone compliments me on it.
How accurate is the speedometer of the Zuma vs GPS?
As far as gps, not sure. I would imagine its not very accurate tho
Nice vid! Thanks!! I have one and agreed on the seat. Otherwise, perfect!!!
Why don't you mount a food delivery bag to the rear rack instead of putting stuff under the seat?
It usually all fits in the trunk. I since have stopped doing so much deliveries with the scooter, lol it was painful on the back after a while
I got one too, only thing I hate is that linked breaks almost lowsided a couple times, I prefer the independent breaks, but I still love it 🤣🔥
Hahaha it definitely takes get used to, best purchase I ever made lol
I came from motorcycles to scooters & use my left hand like a clutch to help control at low speed. I don't like linked brakes. Especially on smaller scooters.
Yra will definitely have to disconnect that if you go off road in dirt or even on gravel, don't want the front wheel locking
Get you some “Highway foot pegs” on this bad boy too….& you’ll be good to go! 👍🏾
how does it do uphills? what's speed up one
It picks up speed going up hill fine. It’s got balls for a acooter
if youre going to buy a new scooter what would you choose honda ruckus or yamaha zuma both in 2022
Personally, the Zuma. Faster, more cargo, can take two people and just better hardware. It also depends on what you’re doing with it.
@@eddiefndiaz mostly food deliveries and just going around town so should i get the zuma
@@fetiljosh definitely the Zuma is the way to go. Faster, trunk and phone charger already installed
@@eddiefndiaz thx man
KYB makes rear shocks for it.
hey man I got one too, how many miles do you get on it now? and is it running solid still for tyou
I have about 1300 miles. Runs solid. It’s a Yamaha so as long as you maintain it, it will last a long time.
I am thinking of getting one when I get back to Thailand in a few weeks. Have a Yamaha 125 freego there has done 16000kms all over southeast Asia. I think the zuma would be a better option for some of the dirt roads I travel..
I also love half time in Thailand.
I have a Honda 125 Wave which I wish was sold in the USA.
Cost $1700 new in Thailand and bulletproof.
Good for picking up them Katoeys
Great video and to the point! Great job thanks
How’s the scooter?
I love it man, its been a great investment!
@@eddiefndiaz Welcome back to UA-cam
@@losxlakers thank you!
I just bought 2017 125cc...seat is not comfortable. Great brakes...suspension. Great value.
Bike yamaha money???
Great review dude.
Thank you 🙏🏽
That so cool . New to mortocycle or scooters does it feel awkward driving scooter never tried but looks like awkward sitting position is it comfortable?
Honestly it could be more comfortable. After a few hours, your back and butt are sore. Still fun and worth it for a side gig but not full time lol
@@eddiefndiaz cool I was looking for something fun I want the Zuma or a kymco k pipe but can't decide if should get scooter bike
I do delivery with ebike, but plan on getting scooter, my choice is piaggio liberty 150cc, it has same price range as zuma, bigger wheel, ABS braking and ofourse 2 years of warranty, downside I can't find any mod for it, so I can forget about 3rd party parts, I'm scratching my head between zuma and piggio liberty 150, what do you think??

@@eddiefndiaz ik but doesn't piaggio gives more torque since it's 155cc and is 30lbs less than zuma?? I'm really trying to scratch ny head here
@@rahi7339 it’s definitely gonna be a bit more power considering the engine size. If the piaggio fits your needs, get that one. I have owned several Yamaha motorcycles and never had a break down. I just prefer the reliability of Yamaha. If you plan on doing highways, get the piaggio.
Go Japanese over Europe for price, parts, after market mods, reliability and a far larger network.
But is it really bad suspension? I was thinking getting but I think I double think it
There are settings that make it better. It’s worth it still, I ended up adjusting it after the video and it was a lot better. I can make a video on it
Hi man! Have you installed any mod nowadays?
not yet, keeping it. stock so far
Love ur videos next time link in tje stuff like phone charger or what ever good review
Looks amazing.
Just an all around really cool looking scoot ! My dealer received the blue one .It was nice but i want the all black, I put a deposit on the only black one they are getting in a few weeks .

Haha the vespas are nice, especially the older two stroke monsters. This is a great all around scooter, but I wouldn’t mind something faster lol
Yea bud grab the blue because vinyl wrap is cheap an easy to do!!
Hi. I enjoyed your video. I have the 2021 and I would like to ask you to send me a link for your Samson phone holder you like. I could not find it on Amazon. Thanks.
Looks like a beast
Do you need a motorcycle license for a 125
I believe technically you do. never heard of anyone getting pulled over on one personally lol
Dope
My girl just came off a 2 stroke also😅
haha 2 strokes definitely feel lighter and quicker, sound better too
Nice video, Eddie. I’ve got a 2013 and love it. Although I prefer the more naked look of the earlier models, the 2022 has a lot of features under that plastic that Zuma owners have been asking for and having to mod themselves. Congratulations on your purchase. 🛵💨💨💨
Thanks! I didn’t know what I was really getting but I’m glad I waited this long lol
It's a nice yamaha Zuma
Sweet video real talk
I appreciate that 🙏🏽
@@eddiefndiaz Thanks for video brother!! Keep riding I just picked up a 2014 Zuma 125

The shocks for me is the biggest thing to get past. It’s a great bike, just falls short in some areas for sure.
my only gripe is the seat I wish they would have made it flat all the way back
Thanks for telling a truth bro!!!! I just got one
Easy With The "F" Bombs !
I’m getting one
And the deliveries you're making are all weed?
Hahaha I wish! It was for Uber eats
@@eddiefndiaz Do you use bike mode for Uber Eats with the Zuma, or you make an account to register the Zuma as a motorcycle with insurance?
@@smugforce7859 I registered it as a motorbike account. They will know the Zuma as a scooter and ask for insurance and registration
Great intell!
Скутеры не создают пробки в городе!!! ... Я отказался от личного автомобиля
00:03 2002 lolol. Kids don't vape lolol
Hahaha great catch, I had to rewatch it my self 😂
@@eddiefndiaz hahaha just making a silly joke
@@MirchiBoy lol we like jokes on this channel
Yea someone complained about you using the f word..but i think with ur channel being call FN diaz is a good heads up , that you may use adult language lol!
WAY too heavy for a freaking scooter...heavier than some full size motorcycles. Almost 300 lbs. WTF??? a scooter??????
I was torn btwn this & the Honda PCX. I ultimately chose the PCX, but the Zuma is a nice scoot. 🛵 👍🏼
4800? 👀 Could get a vespa for less 🤔
im offering em $4200 out the door and my 30000 mile 2009 zuma 125 in trade
