Yamaha NMAX 125 vs Yamaha R7
ESTIMATED SIMULATION
Run the comparison →The Yamaha NMAX 125 (2025) and the Yamaha R7 (2026) 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 Yamaha NMAX 125 is a scooter with 125 cc, 12.1 hp and 132 kg; the Yamaha R7 is a sport bike with 689 cc, 72.4 hp and 189 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 58.3 hp/ton versus 274.3 hp/ton. On this measure the Yamaha R7 is 370% ahead.
In the simulation the Yamaha NMAX 125 covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 20.34 s and the Yamaha R7 in 3.41 s; the Yamaha R7 is quicker by 16.93 s. In the 60-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 17.9 m for the Yamaha NMAX 125 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 14.4 m for the Yamaha R7 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Yamaha R7 stops 3.5 m shorter. The standard 60-0 test is used because one calculated top speed is below 110 km/h. Calculated top speed: 99 km/h (GPS measurement) versus 202 km/h (manufacturer claim).
All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for both. 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.
