Honda Wave RSX FI vs Yamaha NMAX 125

ESTIMATED SIMULATION

Run the comparison →

The Honda Wave RSX FI (2026) and the Yamaha NMAX 125 (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda Wave RSX FI is a cub / underbone with 109 cc, 8.7 hp and unlisted weight; the Yamaha NMAX 125 is a scooter with 125 cc, 12.1 hp and 132 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 49.5 hp/ton versus 58.3 hp/ton. On this measure the Yamaha NMAX 125 is 18% ahead.

0-100 km/h (speedometer): Honda Wave RSX FI not reached (top simulated speed 88 km/h), Yamaha NMAX 125 20.34 s. In the 60-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 18.5 m for the Honda Wave RSX FI (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 17.9 m for the Yamaha NMAX 125 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Yamaha NMAX 125 stops 0.6 m shorter. The standard 60-0 test is used because one calculated top speed is below 110 km/h. Calculated top speed: 88 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 99 km/h (GPS measurement).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Honda Wave RSX FI and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Yamaha NMAX 125. Missing manufacturer data (weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.

Data sources and calibration

Specifications: the sources below (manufacturer pages, plus road-test or spec sites where the manufacturer gives no figure). Acceleration, braking and top speed: Moto Kıyas physics simulation (power/torque curve, gearing, drag, traction and wheelie limits, ABS assumption), calibrated against published road tests where available. Estimated, not measured.
