Looking at buying a new Yamaha aerox, will test ride this afternoon
155cc large tyres looks good
My Honda vario is 3 years old so due to upgrade.
Anyone use one yet?

The aerox looks a good bike , the only issue if your going to carry a passenger the seat at the back is real skinny.

Had a test ride, wife likes the seat as she can see over my head. I find my knees don't hit anything and I think the bike sits higher, as my legs are straight when on the ground. I would go for the rear shock upgrade because I don't see me losing any weight soon. Not sure about not having a key start or lock and only one button with the bike.
I will see what deal they will give me.

Let us know how it goes , I think the aerox is a better bike than the nmax , the only concern I had was the passenger seat , yamaha are making good bikes these days , with abs etc , honda are not so interesting and suzuki are sleepwalking . Enjoy!

Not sure if you were considering the nmax but it's worth noting that the nmax fuel tank holds 43% more fuel than the aerox... 6.6 liters to 4.6.

I like the N Max but the wheels are bigger on the aerox and it has the new upgrade engine that has less vibration.
I will find out how many K,s it will do to the litres, should get around 20ks to the litre.

You can only get in white or blue. So I When't mat blue. Have to wait 7 days for rego and they say 50 Kl's to the litre so 4.6 ltr tank is ok.
