Yamaha Majesty YP250 Reviews

I also own a yp 250 overall I am impressed with this little bike using it when it is to wet to use the R1, the only issue I have is it only manages just over 60mph and after reading the last review tihs is 25 mph of its top speed! does anybody know these are easily restricted/de-restricted?

great scooter and me being a real biker , i would say this is ideal for a winter hack . but all so great in summer and is fun to ride . very comfortable reliable and economical . it only cost me £47 qwid to put on my insurance as a second bike . all in all if you have a chance of one go for it .

Update: December 2007 - The Majesty is a real workhorse; I have now done 8,000 miles on it. Basically the carb had to be cleaned and the water pump needed re-building, overall it has run in a very reliable fashion.

After desperatly trying to find a proper second hand bike, I finally went for a Majesty 250. My first contact with the bike was somewhat indecisive and wobbly but I decided to buy it as I found it to be the ...  Read the complete review

I recently bought a FJ1200 and it needed some repairs. So the dealer gave me a courtesy bike instead. Guess waht it was? A YP250. I don't see why they call it majesty because there is nothing to it. That scooter was the most uncomfortable motorcycle I have ever readen. I guess that it is all right if you ride it in town or on ...  Read the complete review

I finally decided on a scooter for all the usual reasons, weather protection, storage space, etc. I wanted something that had reasonable perfomance, that would cruise at a reasonable speed two-up and would not break the bank. I found a pre-registered 1999 model Yamaha Majesty YP 250 at a local dealer at £1,000 less than the 2000 model, so ...  Read the complete review
