Yamaha T-max 560
The Yamaha T-max 560 has a top speed of 175 km/h, produces 47 hp and weighs 220 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.
De Yamaha T-MAX werd voor het eerst geïntroduceerd in 2001 als een premium maxi-scooter en was een pionier in het segment van hoogwaardige scooters met een in het midden gemonteerde motorontwerp dat is ontleend aan het ontwerp van motorfietsen. De 560cc-versie debuteerde in 2020 en verving de 530 cc-motor door een grotere cilinderinhoud die meer vermogen en koppel biedt en tegelijkertijd voldoet aan de Euro 5-emissienormen. Het blijft wereldwijd de toonaangevende maxi-scooter, bekend om zijn sportieve rijdynamiek, eersteklas functies en de combinatie van functionaliteit en prestaties.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Strong Resale Value
The T-Max 560 holds its value exceptionally well compared to competitors, often retaining 70-80% of its price after two years. Its premium positioning in the maxi-scooter segment keeps demand consistently high.
Watch the CVT Belt
The CVT drive belt is a known wear item that should be inspected every 10,000–15,000 km and replaced if cracked or glazed. Neglecting it can lead to sudden power loss or costly drivetrain damage.
Class-Leading Performance
The 562cc parallel-twin engine with VVA (Variable Valve Actuation) delivers car-like smoothness and strong mid-range torque, making it one of the most powerful production maxi-scooters available. This technology is rare in the scooter segment.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"The best maxi-scooter available, but budget accordingly for running costs."
$7,500-$11,000 usedThe T-Max 560 is genuinely impressive machinery that blurs the line between scooter and proper motorcycle. That 562cc parallel twin pulls hard from low revs, the DCT-style transmission is slicker than most manual boxes, and the suspension actually handles real roads rather than just smooth car parks. It'll genuinely embarrass sportsbikes in city traffic and cruise motorways at 80mph without breaking a sweat. Used examples hold value stubbornly, so don't expect bargains. The things to watch when buying used: check the final drive belt obsessively — replacement isn't cheap and lazy owners skip it. Inspect the underseat storage hinges, they crack. The infotainment on later models looks flash but attracts water ingress, so test everything. Service history matters more than mileage here; these engines respond badly to neglected oil changes. Low-mileage machines owned by commuters who never serviced properly are worse than high-mileage bikes with stamps.
