To celebrate 20 years of the Yamaha TMax, Yamaha Europe has issued a special edition for this maxi scooter. Produced in a limited production run of 560 units, the 20th Anniversary TMax receives a host of dress-up parts.
Decked out in a Tech Graphite paint job
matched with bronze coloured wheels, this commemorative edition of the TMax
also gets panels and front fenders made from forged carbon-fibre. Differing
from the usual woven carbon-fibre typically used in automotive applications,
forged carbon-fibre is made from a paste of fibres shaped in a hydraulic press,
giving a marbled appearance.
The seat is also differentiated from the
standard TMax with sporty styling and contrasting yellow stitching. Completing
the look of the 20th Anniversary TMax is special edition graphics and numbered
badge celebrating two decades of the TMax.
Taking the TMax 560 Tech Max as its basis,
the 20th Anniversary TMax is the top-of-the-range in Yamaha’s scooter
catalogue. This means the special edition TMax comes with riding conveniences
such as electric windshield, cruise control, heated grips and seat as well as
adjustable rear suspension.
The standard equipment list also includes
Led lighting, smart key, TFT-LCD instrument panel, traction control and riding
modes. Braking is done with twin hydraulic discs on the front wheel and the
TMax rolls on a 15-inch wheels front and rear. In the engine room, the 20th
Anniversary Yamaha TMax is powered by the two-cylinder 560 cc, DOHC
liquid-cooled power plant, producing 47 hp at 7,500 rpm an 55.7 Nm of torque at
5,250 rpm. Purchase of the 20th Anniversary TMax is online via Yamaha Europe’s
website.
