The Yamaha XMAX 125 Tech MAX Plus is the flagship of Yamaha’s 125cc MAX scooter family, taking the well proven XMAX platform and adding the premium trim and extra equipment that riders who already know they want the best in class come looking for. Where the standard XMAX majors on value, the Tech MAX Plus is built for those unwilling to compromise on finish or specification, and it wears the sharpest version of the MAX family’s big-wheeled, grown-up styling.
Underneath the upgraded bodywork sits the same capable 125cc liquid-cooled single, its SOHC four-valve head and 11.2:1 compression ratio producing 9kW at 8,000rpm and 11.2Nm of torque at 6,000rpm from a 52.0mm by 58.7mm bore and stroke. Fuel injection and a V-belt automatic transmission deliver the same effortless, twist-and-go performance that makes the XMAX so easy to live with, whether that is pulling away at a junction or holding a steady cruise on faster roads, while consumption of around 2.3 to 2.4 litres per 100km and 56g/km of CO2 keep it frugal to run every day.
The tubular steel underbone chassis, telescopic front forks and unit swing rear suspension are shared with the standard bike, running on the same 120/70-15 front and 140/70-14 rear tyres with 140mm of ground clearance, and giving the same composed, settled ride and the same confident 267mm front and 245mm rear disc braking. A 795mm seat height keeps it accessible despite the added specification, and the extra weight of the Tech MAX Plus equipment is barely noticeable from the saddle, with the scooter remaining light and manageable at low speed and in tight parking.
What sets this version apart is the finish, a more upmarket paint and trim treatment, additional convenience features over the standard bike, and the kind of detailing that makes it feel a genuine step above a basic commuter scooter every time you swing a leg over it, while the same generous underseat storage keeps it just as practical for daily errands and longer trips alike. It suits riders who have already decided a 125 scooter is right for them but want the top of the range, not the entry point.
