Discover how to improve the power of your Yamaha T-MAX: increase its speed and performance without sacrificing reliability. Customize the performance of your T-MAX to your taste or driving style!
Transmission upgrade: High-performance variator
Although Yamaha does it very well, you can always get more out of your maxi-scooter's drivetrain.
Installing a transversal variator system we will be able to take advantage of all the power generated by the engine of our Yamaha T-MAX and take it to the rear wheel.
As a consequence of equipping a JCosta transmission kit, we will obtain a higher top speed, better recuperations and an increase the power at low and medium revs.
Performance clutch
Upgrade your Yamaha T-MAX transmission with a high-performance clutch.
With the TMAX clutch we will get the whole transmission kit to work better and give us a much more precise feel.
Get more power and acceleration, as well as greater retention when releasing the throttle. This will help us not to use the brake so much and make more use of the engine brake.
Exhaust system with fewer restrictions
If we equip our Yamaha T-MAX with an exhaust system with fewer restrictions, we will get the engine to turn more easily and, therefore, we will get an increase in HP or KW.
There are different types of exhaust pipes to fit your TMAX.
