Coming in new colours for next year’s riding season
is the 2019 Yamaha X-Max 250, which can be had in Matte Blue and Matte Red.
Recommended retail pricing the the X-Max remains unchanged at RM 21,225,
excluding road tax, insurance and registration.
Launched in Malaysia in March 2018, the X-Max 250 is
powered by a single-cylinder, four-stroke, SOHC power plant producing 22.5hp at
7,000 rpm and 24.3 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. Fed by EFI, the X-Max 250 engine
is designed with Yamaha’s Blue Core technology with fuel economy and power
efficiency in mind.
Power gets to the ground via CVT transmission and
belt final drive, and the X-Max rolls on a 15-inch wheel in front and 14-incher
at the back, equipped with disc brakes. With electric starting, fuel carried
inside a 13.2-litre tank, there is space under the seat on the X-Max for two
full-face helmets.
Other rider conveniences include keyless start, a
12-Volt charging outlet in the front cowl and ABS and switchable traction control.
The X-Max uses LED lighting throughout with LED position lights, bringing
styling up-to-date.
An LCD panel is placed between two analogue gauges
to deliver all the necessary information to the rider. Deliveries of the 2019
Yamaha X-Max 250 begin this month at all authorised Hong Leong Yamaha dealers.
