Looks like they've gone high-tech but the big question is - have they made the headlights safe for unlit roads?



Well they say the lights have a new look to make it look like an X-Men logo (I paraphrase here) but I've not yet seen any claims about effectiveness so I'd be keen to hear if anyone finds out about that.





Any-hoo, here's a link to the official page - https://www.yamaha-motor.eu/rs/sr/produ ... -max-2023/

Looks like they've done away with that hopeless central 'main beam' lens - but have retained the Upholstered Brick backrest!
Bet it won't be cheap; wonder if there's a standard version..?

Ah yes there is a base model.

Interesting.
I mounted my GPS on the Forza on a RAM ball between the handlebars.
I realised after my first long trip using it that it was far too low down, making me take my eyes off the road to look at it.
It seems to me that the built-in GPS screen on the Xmax will cause the same trouble; it's far too low down.

What's the legroom like though. Can you go feet forward?

Well 'semi' on the current model - not like on a T-Max; but about the same as a Forza 350.

Thanks Greybeard.
