YAMAHA T-MAX500

T-MAX500

It all sorta happened both spontaneous and spiritual for me that ninth of March two-thousand and nine. The time line was this: I was returning from my office over in Plymouth, and as usual, if I'm not trolling the local airport for landings, I'm over looking about the motor bikes at Plymouth Motorsports... ogling at the latest Suzuki's, Yamaha's, and Polaris products, pure adrenaline boy toys. :D

And there she was... at first I could care less, I was originally looking for a Burgman, but the quality was a tad off my my standards on the show model, and in fact a bore to look at to be quite honest. I was still thinking Suzuki skywave, but that name plate would never see America, as it has become the burgman, and that is all it ever would amount to be. So over to the right to the clone Honda Helix.. what a bucket of rubbish, even had the sticker 'Made in China' on the Steering bar, I will never go back to the Chinese scoot, never again will I spend all summer and autumn wrenching on that pile of rubbish, instead, I want to ride!

So what to Buy, this was the moment, this was the time, this was the energy, I could really feel it, like a beckon pulling me in.. into the void... And there she was.. last but surely not least... the 2009 Yamaha T-Max XP500Y and she was simply amasing since I had first seen her in Japan motor show in 2005, this T-Max was a refined piece of art, she was mine.

After fondling her for about what seemed like an hour, really, I had decided to use my mobile to Google search price quotes for this bike, and the cheapest I found with a full warranty was more expensive then what I had paid here, so that is a good thing. After tracking a nice salesman, we exchanged conversation, I made some specific questions about this machine, like cross checking the product, and she IS the Enzo of all Sport Scooters, and has zero competition, she owns the market and out performs every other scooter on the roads today. It also has been noted that she is a better performer on the short track then some of your more high-end sport bikes. Now this is a big scooter!

After getting a credit report, 813 approved, it was all smooth sailing from there. You might be wondering why and such would you outright just buy a scooter like this and for what purpose. Simply, it shouldn't concern you, as my father likes to put it when it comes to business like this. Of course I shall answer that question, for one, i have been studying these scooters for four years, I have wrenched on my current scoot for a half a year [didn't put more then 4000 miles on last season] and have been wanting one of these big performers, especially the T-MAX, from when I had went to Japan back in 2005, but back then the T-Max was not in America like it is now. So this great day, the ninth, 12 CABAN, a day of understanding and thanking mother earth for all of her gifts.

So onward to today, the tenth of March, 13 ETZNAB, Ascension, a good day to spend in introspection and reflection, as tomorrow is 1 CAUAC, Blue Storm... tomorrow would be the best day to pick up Maxine. :) I just hope it is not raining tomorrow. It rained buckets today, like in the score of 2 inches or so, sheesh, it is still raining.... Ya know April showers eh. I can get used to an early spring, like the lo0t of you. I do believe in the Maya, or that they have a great system for counting and dating things, just sayin' it is in everything I produce creatively.

Onward... So what is this over sized scooter supposed to be anyway? Like.. what is SO cool about it? Well.. Watch this while i try to write the closing of this letter....
