- This is the new 2016 model for the Tmax. Pricey, but nifty!
Sound is odd because I am using th Sena BackPack for the sound - my mic adapter has died (again).

Really great fun Scooter Cager.Thankyou for doing a very good test on it thru the twisty canyon roads.Looks like too much fun!!!
i have been waiting for this video for ages! nice job man! :D
I agree a good looking scooter. If I lived in one of Europe's capital cities I would happily use one to get around. Handles the twisties lovely too. Cheers.
I had a TMAX several years ago and I loved it. Handled great. I put 14 K miles on it in 3 years. Fun fun to ride.
Brother how much consumption ???
this looks awesome but somewhat impractical due to small storage. could you do an review of the xmax 400 abs?
Great videos. Nice to see someone having so much fun. I’ve been looking at the TMax to replace my Vespa 200L. The Vespa will do 70 mph (I’m in the US) so it will keep up with traffic. The ones I’ve seen cost as much as a nice used Triumph. Still considering buying one. Scooters are not popular here. I do use mine to pick up some groceries when I don’t feel like driving the car.
Just get one, you won't regret it
Loving all your reviews. Fun and entertaining. My trouble is now how many bikes can I convince the wife I need to buy.
Hi Cager! Have a look at next year redesign of this bike. It is MEGA! The equipment level on upcoming T-Max DX is astonishing. I want one badly. I think I'll be trading in my Forza 125 in about a year from now.
I actual have no complaints with my Tmax 530 and no issues with the storage space
i really like your test ride videos and bike reviews. please test ride the upcoming tmax dx please! i heard it comes with electronic cruise control
Should compare it to the BMW C650 Sport. Looking forward to that video
Very nice review brother!
lovely bike
The 2016 tmax 530 is the best one ever. Iconic scooter. So, so hard to find one in the USA.
Hey Cager, Great review!
Have you seen locally, the New Honda X-ADV Adventure Scooter. It is based on the NC700X. But it has New frame specific to the X-ADV. I would like to see you review it if you have some time.
From America. I am becoming increasingly aware of scooters here in the US. . I am saving my money now for the next Oil crunch.
I wish I had money for a Tmax. I had Xmax for 3 years and It was a joy! Now I'm on an R3 :D
Cager, you should try the R3, I think you'll love it!
Hi Cager
I would like to see you try the BMW K1300R the guys at M.J. Paiva have in the background as you do the walk around. Go go go
how about the handling of the tmax vs the nc700x? I have a 2013 nc700x dct version so I guess its very very similar in terms of twist-and-go riding, storage, etc. But the tmax looks so good I may want to change to it.
Tmax is not for the ones who have a sportbike and want to comute,those are buying smaller inexpensive scooters,as the need for adrenaline is fullfilled by the bike. Tmax is for those who already tried many motorcycles,from supersport to cruisers and found the ballance between them.
Just sold one to a customer. Amazing machine. I want one and I just got an FJR.
If it's designed anything like the Yamaha Majesty 400, just wait until you have to access the motor.
Did they learn not to put the air intake down near the bottom of the rear tire like they have on the Majesty?
Thanks for the review cajer! I am one of the commuters you mention who doesn't really want two bikes. I need something with power, wind protection, economy, agility and something which offers fun on the way to work. It would be a honda integra 750d for me though although shame it still doesn't have any under seat storage yet. The t-max gets stolen quite a lot in London and they do less mpg than 750d. I had a yamaha majesty 400 for a few months it's like a posh xmax. But this tmax is a twin cylinder engine hence better performance as you mentioned. Thanks again.
@12:12 😨😨
The guy on the bike just had some heart attack
you don't mention the CVT transmission, so I guess it's not a bit issue. The Integra though has DCT transmission which at least makes it sound like a bike.
I'm going to test ride this ASAP! This is a very good review! Thanks! :-)
In the mean time take a look at the BMW C650 much better bike for the money and you get far more. I own one and met people with the T-Max 530 and they always soon realised which is better in favour of the BMW.
I tried both and the BMW did not feel as nimble as the T-Max. The BMW did have some nice bells & whistles though. Personally, I still prefer the T-Max.
Here in Brazil costs an organ of the body, Congratulations on the video!!!
Hi Cager I cant decide between tmax and nc750d integra. Your videos helped alot to narrow down to these 2 bikes. I would really appreciate any additional information you have.
Ill take the Suzuki Burgman 650
Its about fuel economy and the easy of use for those who use to ride a manual, but want to just give it the throttle and it takes off. Simple.
AN650 is heavy and because of the bigger wheelbase it is not good in the city. For touring it is ok. For city the AN400 or Majesty400 are better.
NC750 integra for sure
Can you post the stats from the phone while driving this?
Sounds like an angry cow! Awesome scooter indeed.
Yes.. It does sound like a very angry cow! :-)
For me its more like a lawn mower
A After market exhaust would make it sound better!!
get on with it!
I have a 2016 tmax and it corners very low. Other bikers simply cant believe watching my back. I have no idea as well. I dont think I will trade it because its so fun!
Hello brother..how much gasoline does it use????
Eu tenho 16 anos, será que eu posso conduzir uma tmax 530?
thats a pretty high end all bells and whistles scooter! an akrapovic on a scooter,
I have seen it all!
It's really common in Europe. There are also plenty of 125 scooter with akrapovic exhaust or other brand.
Is this proper bike for beginer?
This specific one is awesome
Keyless FOB isn't *that* new any more :) Nice review.
E as revs em Português?
"Don't do this to me....?" You did it to yourself, running the RED LIGHT.... Not a safe move - need an attitude adjustment.... Otherwise, a great and informative Vid... Thanks, Gordon in Maryland...
Yeah, not much of a driver for sure.
Good review. I do find this expensive compared to a BV 350 or a NC750x. And it gets used by abfew moto hijackers in London..
I saw that one video on RJ's channel of a couple of motorjackers on a tmax. I guess it is the best bike for that purpose. twist and go with almost 50bhp. can get up to the victim really fast and escape quickly if need be
Even Daelim has that wireless key for years
yes, the S3 xD
get over the word SCOOTER....SKOOTER I HAVE A 650 VSTROM LOVE IT LAST YEAR I HAD A 400 BURGMAN LOVED IT ! BECAUSE I'M 72 I MAY GO BACK TO A SCOOTER , MIGHT BE A 650 BURGMAN ,OR T-MAX 530 OR 550 KYMCO, I ALWAYS BUY SLIGHTLY USED
Fun to watch your videos....
3,2,1 GO ! MOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
So Integra or Tmax?????
This really is the question for me too. I wonder, is cornering and leanage really so mutch better on T-max compared to Integra?
actually the cornering and leanage of the bike depends on how wide their tires are... :D
That Akrapovic make it sound like a camel moaning :)
I got 51° left turn with my 150.. lol..
Mmax?
Mad Max
very angry landmower :)
OMFFFFG. In every version they change the mirrors and now they go to the handlebars. TMax design is going to the urtigas. :( The first one still remains the best.
Problem is the honda forza750 will give you much better mpg
inverted fork is better that regular fork :D cool bike though... :D
But why don't those people just get an NC750x? The NC is faster, has better ground clearance, can choose between semi-auto and full-auto, and it is cheaper!
Matteo have you drive the tmax ?the nc750 is slower in the corners and the brakes are so weak and the frame is weak,and the NC750 deprecates a lot but the tmax has none of these problems
and also the tmax 100-185km/h acceleration is a lot faster than nc750,the tmax has 530cc which produces 46.5ps ,the nc750 makes 54 out of a 750cc ,what a laugh hahahahahaha
An €11000,00 bike as an second bike? Really Cager?
CagerOnTwoWheels The problem isnt "11000" the problem is "second".
Dont understand why you think people drive it as a second bike. I would rather think they drive it as their main/first bike. And a less daily driver, suitable bike as second bike.
+CagerOnTwoWheels how do u turn on this scooter is it the same as a byycicle?
yes
Pirelli Diablo Super Biker hidden ads..... ;) ;)
Going for AK550 instead of Tmax
it's still nowhere near as fast as that 750 scooter you rode eh? Have you thought of riding that again since you've gotten used to higher power bikes?
:D That moment when you realize you set a timer and forgot to stop it.
You can't yet a 750 CC scooter and the United States if you can wear???
I have a Tmax because I have leg issues and I need to have one leg extended and one leg in motorcycle position to be comfortable..I have owned 37 motorcycles and a Tmax and t max is as good fun as any motorcycle and hugely practical. The fact it is a scooter is irrelevant to me.it rides like a normal bike!!
Hello my friend…how much gas does it use????
Nice video. Peaceful advice.. Try to eat chicken ass👍it will be different for the 3rd time you ride that tmax bike😉
"Fucktards!" sounds too cool with your accent. Peace out!
Good "bike", but 11k €. R6 is 12k €.
love the scoot not the end can, the price...............laughable
12:12 too close, tooo close! Said as a biker and cyclist. weh
48 hp really they couldnt make it 47
46
No, man. For me, real bikes only.
have fun w your hayabusa on the city
Good review but not much of a driver.
Scooters cannot compare to bikes in cornering so they shouldn't be compared to them... Scooters are city tourers.
They are all over this place, rode one, it's impressive for what it is but still lacks when compared to a motorcycle, it's the top of its class
It sounds shit though...
C'mon it's not a "bike" it's a "scooter" i own a s1000rr and believe me you don't ride a scooter like you ride a bike....
Ill take any sharp corners way faster than your 5x hp bike :))) and still come off dry after a heavy rain.
AKA Yamaha Shit-Max
really? what scooter do you think is better?
Honda integra 750, bmw c650 sport
HayashiLowCC the BMW i give it to you, is much better, but the integra has nothing on the TMAX.
It wouldn't be so bad if it was lighter or cost 4000€ less...think about it. 12000€ for a beast of a scooter which does not have the agility of something smaller nor the performance of a proper motorbike.
And most people who buy them are absolute douches, at least here in Italy. They act like they have a superbike when they really have a boat on wheels that gets its ass kicked by a RS125.
u need some training to make professional reviews.
The guy needs to get some decent vocabulary. His words leave a lot to be desired...
