Yamaha N-max 125
The Yamaha N-max 125 has a top speed of 95–100 km/h, produces 11.0 hp and weighs 131 kg. Motoryk rates it 8/10.
De Yamaha NMAX 125 werd in 2015 geïntroduceerd als een premium maxiscooter voor in de stad, ontworpen om te concurreren in het groeiende segment van de forenscooters in Zuidoost-Azië en Europa. In 2020 kwam er een belangrijke update van de tweede generatie, met een nieuw chassis, een herziene styling, tractiecontrole en een slim sleutelsysteem. Het onderscheidt zich door de combinatie van praktische functies voor woon-werkverkeer, geconnecteerde technologie en de Blue Core-motortechnologie die prioriteit geeft aan brandstofefficiëntie zonder aan prestaties in te boeten.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Blue Core Engine Efficiency
The NMAX 125 uses Yamaha's Blue Core technology, delivering around 130 mpg fuel economy while keeping the engine cool and reliable over high mileage. This makes running costs exceptionally low compared to rivals.
Watch the CVT Belt
The CVT drive belt is a known wear item and should be inspected every 8,000–10,000 miles, as neglected belts can snap and leave you stranded. Always check service history for belt replacements when buying used.
Strong Resale Value
The NMAX 125 holds its value exceptionally well due to strong demand and Yamaha's reputation for reliability, often retaining 70–80% of its value after two years. Low-mileage examples sell quickly on the used market.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"The most sorted 125 scooter you can buy used today."
$2,500-$4,200 usedThe N-Max 125 is one of the smarter used buys in the small scooter market right now. Yamaha built this thing properly — the Blue Core engine is genuinely efficient without feeling asthmatic, the underseat storage actually fits a full-face helmet, and the ride quality embarrasses most of its competition. It feels planted in a way the PCX never quite managed at this size. Used prices are reasonable because there are plenty of them around, so don't let anyone talk you into overpaying. That said, go in with eyes open. Check the front forks carefully — urban abuse takes a toll and seals aren't cheap to replace. The ABS variants are worth hunting down specifically; pre-2018 non-ABS examples are a false economy. Service history matters here because the CVT belt needs replacing around 12,000 miles and owners frequently ignore it. Cosmetic plastics scratch easily and OEM replacements are pricey, so factor in any bodywork damage in your negotiation.
