2019 Yamaha XMAX 125 Iron Max Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2019 Yamaha XMAX 125 Iron Max scooter motorcycle, Yamaha relies on a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 14.1 HP (10.3 kW) at 8,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 12 Nm (8.9 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through belt final drive. With a specific output of 113.7 HP per liter and a 2,250 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,750 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

On the scales, the XMAX 125 Iron Max measures 175 kg (386 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.41 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,526 mm (60.1 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.7 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 481 km (299 miles) between fill-ups.
