Yamaha N-max 160

The Yamaha N-max 160 has a top speed of 125 km/h, produces 15.5 hp and weighs 134 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.

Yamaha NMAX, 2015'te 155cc/160cc varyantı belirli pazarlarda piyasaya sürülmeden önce başlangıçta 125cc motora sahip birinci sınıf bir şehir scooterı olarak tanıtıldı. 2020-2021'de anahtarsız ateşleme, çekiş kontrolü ve Değişken Valf Aktüasyon (VVA) teknolojisine sahip rafine bir Mavi Çekirdekli motor getiren büyük bir ikinci nesil yeniden tasarım geldi. NMAX 160, sportif tasarımı, Y-Connect uygulaması aracılığıyla bağlantılı özellikleri ve pratik ama performans odaklı bir maxi-scooter olarak Güneydoğu Asya ve Avrupa'daki güçlü popülaritesi ile dikkat çekiyor.

Alıcıların Bilmesi Gerekenler

🔧

Blue Core Engine Reliability

The 155cc Blue Core engine is known for exceptional fuel efficiency (around 40-45 km/L) and long-term durability when serviced regularly. Owners report minimal mechanical issues well past 30,000 km with proper oil change intervals.

⚠️

Watch the CVT Belt

The CVT drive belt is a common wear item that should be inspected every 8,000-10,000 km and typically replaced around 20,000-25,000 km. Neglecting this can lead to slipping transmission and costly repairs.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The NMAX 160 holds its resale value better than most competitors in the premium scooter segment, often retaining 70-80% of its value after two years. Its popularity and widespread Yamaha dealer network make it easy to sell or trade.

Için en iyisi
Urban commuters wanting reliability over excitement daily

"The sharpest sensible scooter money can buy used."

$2,800-$4,500 used

The N-Max 160 is one of those scooters that genuinely surprises you. Yamaha got the balance right here — it's not trying to be a sportbike pretending to be a scooter, it's just a really well-sorted commuter that does its job with minimal drama. The 160cc Blue Core engine pulls smoothly through traffic, fuel economy hovers around 70mpg in real-world riding, and the underseat storage actually fits a full-face helmet. That's not nothing. Buying used, check the front fork seals and inspect the CVT belt — owners who ignored maintenance schedules show their sins quickly on these. The 2020+ refresh brought better suspension tuning and smartphone connectivity, so those are the years worth hunting. Pre-2020 bikes aren't bad, just softer around the edges. Watch for crash damage on the bodywork panels too, since replacements are pricier than you'd expect for a scooter.
