My question is when changing exhaust to upgrade on the Nmax to Arkopovik or there's probably a million of them certainly it will be louder but will it increase hp much? Maybe 1 or 2 hp? The other thing is does there need to be any retuning because of the exhaust change? I know your thinking why bother on such a small bike. This is in Thailand BTW Thanks for any input ..read more

Hello everyone, I'm seeking advice for an issue with my 2018 Yamaha Xmax 400, which has clocked 62,000 kilometers. Recently, I started experiencing engine "knocking" sounds. My mechanic diagnosed it as a failed crankshaft. Consequently, both the crankshaft and piston were replaced. The scooter was picked up from the repair on January 17, 2024, and I was advised to keep it under 80 km/h for the first 1,000 kilometers, which I adhered to. Everything seemed fine for the first 466 kilometers... Persistent Engine Shut Off Issue in Yamaha Xmax 400 (2018) After Crankshaft and Piston Replacement ..read more
