Pioneering the "Super Scooter" Segment
When it launched in 2001, the T‑MAX 500 was hailed as the first "super scooter" because it combined a large 499 cc carburetor‑fed engine with the practicality of a scooter, revolutionising the market.
Power and Convenience in One Package
The bike’s liquid‑cooled parallel‑twin produced roughly 40 bhp and was paired with an automatic transmission, making stop‑and‑go commuting on urban motorways both powerful and effortless.
From Carburetion to Fuel Injection
Original T‑MAX 500 models (2001‑2003) used a carburetor, but from 2004 onward Yamaha switched to fuel injection, as reflected in the genuine parts listings that separate carbureted (2001‑2003) and injected (2004‑2011) versions.
