άλλο ένα άρθρο-test...αυτή τη φορά αποκλειστικά μεταξύ Τ-ΜΑΧ 530 και BMW C 600 Sport:
Latestbikes BMW C600 Sport vs Yamaha TMAX 530, 1st comparative exclusive!
You all expected it, latestbikesinfo.com is happy to be the 1st media with you to offer it! Here the 1st dynamic comparative truth of BMW C 600 Sport vis-a-vis Yamaha TMAX 530! Weight, power with the bench, accelerations, recoveries, top speeds, we very measured to test as well as possible the best maximum scooters 2012. Is Yamaha TMAX or C 600 Sport, which really the best? Here our verdict…
Who will have the skin of Yamaha TMAX? To this essential question on the segment of the sporting maxi scooters, nobody managed to give a valid answer in 10 years. Yes but here, one now finds in concession BMW C 600 Sport, certainly the best outsider ever opposed to maximum Japanese. It is in any case what hammers the German manufacturer since he announced his arrival on the segment last year. And when one observes the data sheet and the equipment which embarks this splendid scooter “made in Berlin”, one thinks that at the summit of the category, the hours of King Yamaha TMAX 530 seem indeed counted…
To draw that with light, and to bring the most objective information that it is on our two mountings of the day, latestbikesinfo.com left heavy artillery to organize the first and more complete the comparative ones between BMW C600 Sport and Yamaha T Max 530. Thanks to our professional electronic balance, our stop watches, the bench of power, a software of data acquisition and our calculators, we very checked (our measurements are in bottom of this article)! But before evoking the performances of these two concentrates of sportsmanship (patience…), first of all let us observe more closely their quality of manufacturing and their equipment, of the particularly important points for sold vehicles 10,999 € for the Yamaha TMAX 530 ABS, 11,100 € BMW C 600 Sport ABS. Face to face is launched, action!
BMW C 600 Sport: Perfectible completion but in top form equipment!
The deutsche quality is not any more what it was! It is the sad report to which we ended by discovering the not very flattering adjustments of certain plastics of BMW C 600 Sport, in particular around its instrument panel. Even report with the opening of the two glove boxes: that of left is particularly difficult to handle.
At the time to fold back the rear view mirrors, we also note that their amounts run up against the bubble, whatever his position. Damage, because with its tended lines and its outgoing short muffler under the engine, we find the style sporting of BMW C 600 Sport particularly successful, ready to compete without fear with that of new Yamaha T MAX 530. Remain that more sharpened TMAX to date seems to us better finished that his German competitor.
Each element of careenage of the Japanese is adjusted with the millimeter and we are definitively allured by the quality of materials employed. Around the central tunnel, the contrast of the various plastics of various colors is very qualitative. Contrary on BMW, the completion of the transmission casing leaves something to be desired. Would it be about a model of preproduction of the new maximum German scooter? At a few hours of its marketing in the dealers, we doubt it.
Fortunately, BMW C600Sport catches up with itself on the practical aspects, and in particular its very good throw weight, quite higher than that of the TMAX. The two spaces laid out in the apron are bulkier and arranged better, as for the trunk of trunk, the Flex case system of BMW (kind of bellows which can be deployed with the stop) brings a truth more in the category of the maximum sporting scooters.
Indeed, if one returns only one crash helmet in the trunk of Yamaha T max 530, one can place of them two in that of BMW C600 Sport… stationed. In the same way on C600, its parking brake related to the opening of the side crutch is more practical, even report for the adjustable bubble manually without the least tool.
Yamaha TMAX 530: Nimblest
In the heat of the action, these two maximum scooters offer behaviors of sporting truths thanks to their frames and their cycles parts inspired of the world of the motor bike. With executives with perfect rigidity and suspensions of great quality, the precision is of setting. One feels however differences as regards agility. In this field, Yamaha TMAX 530 – lighter of 34.4 kg (checked by our care) and slightly shorter – draws its pin from the play, whereas BMW C600 Sport appears less easy to rise of a steep turn with the other.
For which would do nothing but com mutate between urban area and peril-, Yamaha TMAX thus seems to us better cut to face the city with the daily newspaper, the exercise not being all the same insurmountable with the handlebar of BMW, far from there. Nevertheless, with a more consequent weight but of the more rigorous suspensions, BMW C600 Sport presents a behavior really close to that of a motor bike of type roadster midsize in the large curves and at raised speed, where we in addition find it more protective vis-a-vis the wind than T Max.
Side braking, we deal with two systems offering a consequent power. If it is certainly necessary more extremely to draw on the levers from BMW C 600 Sport, on each side the systems ABS employed bring satisfaction and do not start too quickly. Side pneumatic tires, Pirelli Diablo Scooter of BMW C 600 Sport compete perfectly with Bridgestone Battle BT11 of Yamaha TMAX 530. These gums shine by their speed of setting in motion and adapted well to the sporting control of these maximum top scooters appeared to us.
Performances engine: A point moreover for BMW C600 Sport
Initially announced for April, the German scooters arrive finally only now in concessions. Would BMW have polished the transmission of its BMW C600 Sport and C 650 WP criticized during our first test in Madrid? Impossible to check it – and no official communication on this subject filtered – however we note that BMW C600 Sport placed at our disposal today seems to us one nothing swifter with low mode and less brutal with mid–mode.
Its sonority, near to that of a motor bike, seems more marked also to us. That being, force is to recognize today the superiority of the twin-cylinder BMW C600 Sport in all the fields vis-a-vis Yamaha T max 530. Without surprises, thanks to its almost 120 additional Cm3 and 13 horses, BMW C 600 Sport is undoubtedly the maxiscooter which will make it possible to its owner to be always in front of between two fires.
The does not deposit really Yamaha T max, but it is essential however in recoveries and top speed, without to show really more glutton that the Japanese with the pump (to read the whole of our measurements in bottom of this article).
Verdict: Of (very) little, BMW C 600 Sport is in front!
Bombshell on the maxiscooter category: our table of notation (on page 2) places BMW C 600 Sport in front of Yamaha T MAX 530. Admittedly, we remain somewhat on our hunger side completion (on the segment motor bike, the mark accustomed us to better), however with its throw weight, the quality of its equipment and the performances of its motorization, BMW C 600 Sport only takes the lead for a small point.
Proof how it is easy, even for a specialist from the top of range, to dethrone the maximum scooter which neither more nor less created and animated the category since nearly 10 years! With its dynamic qualities of first order, its agility and the approval offered by its engine, Yamaha T MAX 530 holds more than ever its row in spite of its light deficit in pure performances.
Side tariff, only 100 € separate the Japanese scooter sporting from its German competitor, which plays in favor of this last. Moreover, side equipment one can go even further with the manufacturer to the propeller. Indeed, as on our BMW C600 Sport of test, BMW proposes a Highline pack for its maximum, including the white indicators with Leds, diurnal fires, the heating handles and saddles, as well as the DRC (pressure pick-up of the tires), invoiced 895 €.
