Vehicles and self-introduction
[Self-introduction]
MBX50→Landy→New Tact→VF400F→Address V50→Address V125 (K7)→NMAX125→Rebel 250S Edition
I got my motorcycle license when I was a freshman in high school and have ridden several motorcycles, but I haven't ridden in about 15 years because I got married. I'm also an old rider who started with a moped and returned to regular motorcycles on my fourth motorcycle.
[Motorcycles]
This is a custom introduction about the NMAX125, a two-stroke moped that I bought in 2016 and have been riding for four years, with a few customizations (and still riding).
Customization of the particulars
I want to make a unique NMAX while keeping the normal base.
[Directionality]
No flashy stuff, just genuine specifications to make my own motorcycle version!
[Points that I think are cool]
The white base with red accents.
[Points of change in performance]
Changing the exhaust eased the excessive engine braking and made the motorcycle more fun to ride.
Custom Points
Left-hand switch
Brand: YAMAHA genuine
Part number: 2C0-83969-00 (for YZF-R6)
This is a switch with passing hazards that I thought was a good idea to incorporate after seeing it replaced online. I looked up the wiring of the connecting coupler on the Internet while I was doing it, so I felt very satisfied after completion. It's a genuine YAMAHA product and it doesn't look out of place.
Side cover
Brand: YAMAHA genuine
Part number: 2DP-F1731-00-P3, 2DP-F1741-00-P3
Since 2019 NMAX minor change, the side covers have been changed from silver to black, so it is diverted as well. The mounting bolts are also changed from chrome color to black so that there is no sense of incongruity.
Exhaust system
Brand: BEAMS
Item Name: R-EVO SP Silent Exhaust System
From here, it is customization with external parts. The exhaust system change made the sound better and the ride more comfortable. MOS rear fender is also installed to prevent dirt around the rear.
Rear suspension
Brand: ENDURANCE
Item Name: Rear suspension (Black Body)/(Red Spring)
I replaced the stock suspension with an external one because it didn't feel like it was pushing up on uneven surfaces. There is a sense of thrust, but it is somewhat reduced and the appearance is enhanced by the red accents.
Disc rotor
Brand: TDR
Product Name: Floating Disc Front RED
I changed to the floating shape because I thought it would improve the drainage effect of the front brake when driving in the rain. I changed the pads to DAYTONA red pads and that helped a little.
Windscreen
Brand: unknown
Product name: Sports Screen Smoke
Changed to a sports screen to be able to put a little thing such as a glove in the clean. Smoked color to match the stock knuckle visor. Urethane is inserted into the position behind the sticker in the screen to prevent wind from entering when driving.
As a result of installing and removing the screen several times, the head of the plastic bolt that holds the screen in place has been nipped, so I also replaced it with a stainless steel cap bolt. After that, I put the YAMAHA sticker on the NMAX because the NMAX only has the tuning fork mark on the body. In addition, all lights are changed to LED. Mopeds can be easily customized by yourself, and the price of the parts is cheap, so you can't control the customizing craze.
Customization that I want to do in the future
About the customization that I want to try in the future, I'm thinking of changing to Brembo front caliper kit. I'm also thinking of adding a trunk light to illuminate the inside of the trunk at night.
