Positioned in Yamaha's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2011 Yamaha TMAX ABS pairs a 499 cc (30.5 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 66.0 x 73.0 mm (2.6 x 2.9 inches) with a 11.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the TMAX ABS measures 221.8 kg (489 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,580 mm (62.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 15.14-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 303 km (188 miles) between fill-ups.
