Yamaha’s TMAX reached its seventh generation in 2020, with revised body styling, updated suspension, optimised electronics and a new twin-cylinder engine.

The boost in performance comes via a larger capacity 560cc engine producing 3.5 percent more power and 6 percent more torque. It’s one of the lightest and smoothest engines in the maxi scooter class with a compact design that allows a larger under seat storage area.

The chassis is fitted with 41mm upside down front forks and link-type Monocross rear suspension, comparable to systems fitted to larger capacity Yamaha motorcycles.

The 2020 TMAX 560 is available from Yamaha dealers at a ready to ride price of $16,749, with a choice of Icon Grey or Sword Grey colours.
