<p><strong>Key Features</strong><br />
•  Fuel-injected, liquid-cooled, four-valve-per-cylinder engine boasts forged pistons, carburized connecting rods, and ceramic-composite plated cylinders. The TMAX has a 11.0:1 compression ratio; upswept muffler canister; Controlled-fill die-cast aluminum frame; 43mm front forks; 4-piston mono-block caliper dual front disc brakes; rear disc brake; aluminum die cast wheels with radial H-rated tires; fully featured multifunction instrumentation with speedometer and tachometer; and radical new sports styling; with those credentials, it’s no wonder TMAX is the Super Sport Scooter.</p>
<p>•  Horizontally positioned 499cc parallel twin, with reciprocating balancer, offers plenty of smooth power, enough for two-up touring at highway speeds. Configuration helps keep weight low in frame for mass centralization.</p>
<p>•  Luxury scooter appointments include a double glove box in the streamlined front apron, a positionadjustable operator backrest, a storage box under the seat spacious enough for a large full-face helmet, and the excellent wind and weather protection that comes from the TMAX’s floorboard/apron/windshield configuration.</p>
<p>•  Continuously variable transmission connects engine power to the wet multiplate centrifugal clutch via a durable double-cog-type rubber V-belt. Silent chain efficiently transfers power to the rear wheel. This proven system, combined with TMAX’s ample power, gives a whole new meaning—and adrenaline level—to twist-and-go throttle operation.</p>
<p>•  The TMAX achieves fuel economy up to an estimated 47 mpg* with a fuel tank that holds 4 gallons of gas.<br />
<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Engine</strong><br />
•  Fuel-injected, DOHC, four-valve-per-cylinder, 499cc parallel twin, liquid-cooled engine is horizontally mounted and performance engineered with forged pistons, carburized connecting rods and ceramic-composite plated cylinders for plenty of tractable power. Also includes a horizontally opposed reciprocating balancer for uncommon smoothness.</p>
<p>•  Electronic fuel-injection system provides sure starts and excellent performance in virtually all conditions and altitudes.</p>
<p>•  Lubrication is via a semi-dry-sump system with an oil cooler for longer engine life.</p>
<p>•  Continuously variable transmission (CVT) connects engine power to the wet multiplate centrifugal clutch via a durable double cog-type rubber V-belt. Pivot coaxial drive shaft is used, allowing use of a swingarm separate from the powerplant for excellent handling. Two-stage, adjustment-free silent chain system then transfers power to the rear wheel.</p>
<p>•  Muffler incorporates exhaust catalyst technology to reduce air pollution.</p>
<p>•  Fuel tank emission system includes a charcoal canister to control gasoline evaporation and reduce air pollution.<br />
<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Chassis/Suspension</strong><br />
•  Using technology proven in Yamaha’s sportbike line, TMAX has a lightweight, Controlled-Fill die-cast aluminum frame that provides rigidity and balance for superb handling.</p>
<p>•  Motorcycle-type telescopic front forks use beefy 43mm tubes.</p>
<p>•  15-inch cast aluminum wheels front and rear are fitted with radial tires for excellent, sporty handling.</p>
<p>•  Front double disc brakes with four-pod mono block calipers.</p>
<p>•  Pin-slide, single piston rear brake caliper with parking brake system.</p>
<p>•  Brake lever is adjustable for operator comfort.</p>
<p>•  Rear seat is hinged for easy opening. Underseat storage is spacious enough to store a large full-face helmet.<br />
<strong></strong></p>

It&#8217;s also got lots of room for a passenger and storage space under      the seat for whatever you need on your daily commute.</p>
<p>Think about all the things that you look for in a scooter. Let&#8217;s run down      a little checklist, shall we?</p>
<p>Stylish, Euro-inspired good looks? Check. Room for two &#8211; plus ample storage      for urban-suburban commuting? For sure. Fuel efficiency that has you snickering      every time you&#8217;re at the gas pump? You bet.</p>
<p>Oh, and how could we forget &#8212; a zippy, fun ride? Yep. That too. In fact,      with a 125cc 4-stroke engine, the Vino 125 gives you plenty of &#8220;get up      and go.&#8221; The only place it&#8217;s miserly is at the pump. So what&#8217;re you waiting      for? Scoot!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>GOING virtually unnoticed among the outlandish machines at this year&#8217;s Tokyo show stood a machine that gives the clearest indication yet of the sort of bike we could all be riding in our increasingly environmentally-friendly future.</p>
<p>While most of the concept bikes at the show were little more than mock-ups designed to offer stylists a free hand, Yamaha&#8217;s HV-X – or Hybrid Vehicle (eXperimental) – is a real engineering prototype that&#8217;s virtually certain to spawn a production derivative in the near future. The most technically-advanced hybrid motorcycle yet seen, it&#8217;s already been undergoing thorough testing for more than two years and despite its innovation, it&#8217;s would be possible to produce immediately, with current technology, if it&#8217;s given the green light by Yamaha&#8217;s bosses. The result, in Yamaha&#8217;s own words, is “an eco-friendly two-wheeled hybrid with all the responsive acceleration and cornering fun of a conventional motorcycle.”</p>
<p>Strangely tucked away in a corner of Yamaha&#8217;s stand, and omitted from most of the firm&#8217;s Tokyo show publicity, the HV-X is a petrol-electric hybrid based on the same technology as the world&#8217;s most successful hybrid car, the Toyota Prius. Being partially owned by Toyota, and regularly used to develop Toyota&#8217;s car engines and drivetrains, Yamaha is in the perfect position to transpose the technology onto two wheels. Unfettered by the need to work around Toyota&#8217;s patents, the firm has miniaturised the entire concept of the Prius hybrid power source and the clever transmission that allows the drive from the petrol and electric motors to be combined in any ratio, from entirely battery-powered to completely petrol-fuelled, or, for maximum performance, to use the full power of both at the same time.</p>
<p>The specifications – a 15bhp 250cc single-cylinder engine and a 15bhp electric motor – might not make your blood run hot, but there&#8217;s little limit to the potential; Yamaha&#8217;s own Gen-Ryu hybrid concept bike of 2007 was designed around the same technology, and combined a 130bhp R6 engine with a 50bhp electric motor for 1000cc superbike power levels. The HV-X shows that concept was viable and has real production potential.</p>
