Yamaha 2018 155 NMAX Review - Jeff Ware

We’ve recently been testing the new 2018 Yamaha scooter range and first scoot off the rank is the updated NMAX, now 155cc, the NMAX has a little more go and is even better than it already was. Check out our video review. 2018 Yamaha NMAX 155 Technical Highlights The NMAX 155’s EU4-compliant engine has been developed using Yamaha’s advanced Blue Core technology. This innovative design approach focuses on increasing combustion and cooling efficiency while at the same time reducing power losses, to give you quicker acceleration with a higher top speed and reduced fuel consumption. The sporty look and premium design of the sleek bodywork has been influenced strongly by our Sport Scooters. Its integrated tail end gives the NMAX 155 a sporty and sophisticated look – while the boomerang side motifs and central tunnel underline its strong Yamaha MAX heritage.A key feature that makes the NMAX 155 such a sporty performer is its variable valve actuation (VVA) system. The four-valve cylinder-head uses a special camshaft that enables the engine to operate more efficiently at low and high engine speeds, giving stronger acceleration in all rev ranges, together with good fuel economy. NMAX 155 is equipped with an immensely strong and lightweight tubular frame that delivers a sporty ride and stable handling with easy handling. Featuring a twin shock rear suspension system and smooth-action telescopic front forks, the high-specification chassis ensures that you and your passenger travel in comfort every time.  For strong and effective stopping performance the NMAX 155 is equipped with a 230mm front disc and a 230mm rear disc that give plenty of feel for smooth braking. This high spec scooter also comes with ABS as standard, to give you even more controllable braking power and increased confidence in varying conditions. The compact NMAX 155 will fit into the tightest parking area – and yet while being small on the outside, you’ll find the interior surprisingly spacious – with generous rider legroom and plenty of space for your passenger. The long stepped dual seat is designed to ensure high levels of comfort – and there’s a storage compartment for a full-face helmet.The lightweight cast alloy 13-inch wheels underline its sporty styling and premium specification and a wide section 110/70-13 front tyre and chunky 130/70-17 rear tyre.The face of the NMAX 155 features a twin-eye LED headlight design when on low beam, while a third central light comes on in high beam mode. At the rear there’s a stylish LED stoplight, and the easy-to-read LCD instruments include a bar type fuel gauge, speedo, clock and fuel economy data.   2018 YAMAHA NMAX 155 SPECIFICATIONS yamaha-motor.com.au Price: $3999 + ORC Warranty: One-year, unlimited kilometre Colours: Power Red, Frozen Titanium Claimed power: 11.1kW@8000rpmClaimed torque: 14.4Nm@6000rpmWet weight: 127kgFuel capacity: 6.6L Engine: Liquid-cooled, SOHC, single-cylinder, four-valve, four-stroke, 155cc, 10.5:1 compression, V-Belt Automatic, Variable Valve Actuation (VVA)Gearbox: Auto Chassis: Lightweight, small diameter steel tube frame, Unit swingarm Suspension: Telescopic forks, 100mm travel, dual rear shocks, 90mm travelBrakes: ABS, single 230mm front and rear rotors, single-piston calipersWheels & Tyres: Alloy multi-spoke 13inch wheels, 110/70 – 13, 130/70 – 13 Dimensions: Wheelbase: 1350mm Seat height: 765mm Overall height: 1115mm Overall width: 740mm Instruments: Multifunction LCD display Jeff Ware
