Segment: Scooter
Production years: 2012, 2013
The Hyper Modified TMAX series of scooters is the way Yamaha shows how cool their top-range machines can be when spending some time in the garages of the world's most famous customizers. For his reinterpretation of the TMAX, German builder Marcus Walz wanted to keep the scooter as recognizable as a Yamaha machine as possible, while working his magic around the base cues. Reducing as much weight as he could Walz changed some of the parts for a more aggressive stance and sportier looks.
The handlebar area received a new trim for a more evil naked bike look, with bar-end mirrors for a classier cafe-racer look. Carbon fiber trim and a massive Akrapovic exhaust, the TMAX created by Hardcore Cycles' mastermind is a completely different game now.
