AutoKarnet advice
Body style and inspection points
On a scooter, have the variator belt and rollers checked when due, even if the scooter covers little distance in town. Also check the small-diameter tyres, which wear fast, the lights and the centre stand; a slipping belt is felt when pulling away.
AutoKarnet advice
Comparing generations
Other documented generations of this model: • TMAX (2017) (2017–2019) : scooter, 48–48 hp. A first registration near a generation change does not identify the car on its own: check the body style and powertrain before using a service schedule.

Maintenance and records
≈: estimated reference — the vehicle’s service indicator prevails.
Brake fluid
Every 2 years
Replace the fluid in both circuits (and the hydraulic clutch if fitted), whatever the mileage; dark fluid has absorbed moisture.
Source [1]Fork oil
≈ 30,000 km
Fork oil change and seal check; an oil film on the tubes means a seal needs replacing before it contaminates the brake caliper.
Source [1]Final drive belt
≈ 16,000 km
Check the tension, cuts and teeth at each service; a trapped stone can cut it. No lubrication: the belt is cleaned with water.
Source [1]Spark plugs
Every 10,000 km
Replace the full set; worn plugs raise consumption and cause misfires.
Source [1]Air filter
Every 20,000 km
Replace more often in dusty conditions.
Source [1]Valve clearance
Every 40,000 km
Check and adjust if needed, often together with the plugs; too little clearance burns the valves, too much makes the engine noisy.
Source [1]Variator belt and rollers
Every 20,000 km
Replace the belt and check the rollers and clutch; a worn belt makes the scooter slip and can snap while riding.
Source [1]Coolant
Every 3 years
Replace the coolant and check the hoses and radiator; check the level cold between services.
