The seating is armchair-like, the windshield holds off the airflow at highway speed, and the passenger gets a proper seat rather than a perch. The [XMAX](/en/bikes/yamaha-xmax/) adds electronics on top: ABS stops the wheel locking on wet tarmac, traction control covers you on sand and painted lines. In practice: the XMAX hides about 45 litres under the seat — two helmets, or a helmet and a laptop backpack. This is the bike for a couple riding the whole island: Promthep at sunset, Old Town, the north — in one day, without fatigue. If you mostly ride solo around town, you don't need a maxi — look at the [Honda ADV160](/en/bikes/honda-adv-160/) at 500 ฿/day: lighter, cheaper to run and enough for every hill on the island. The full fleet is on the [bikes & prices](/en/bikes/) page. ### What is included in the maxi scooter rental price?

A full category A motorcycle licence plus an International Driving Permit (IDP). Maxi scooters are 300cc-class machines: a category B (car) licence is not valid for them and insurance will not apply. ### What is the deposit for a maxi scooter? Yamaha XMAX 300 — from 4,000 ฿, Honda Forza 300 and the 2026 XMAX flagship — from 5,000 ฿. Cash deposit or passport option: the cash amount is known before booking and returned when you bring the bike back; the original passport stays with you when cash is selected. ### Do two helmets fit under the seat? Yes. The XMAX has roughly 45 litres of storage under the seat — two helmets, or a helmet plus a laptop backpack. Two helmets come free with any bike. ### XMAX or Forza — which one? The price is the same — 650 ฿/day for the XMAX 300 (2020) and the Forza 300. XMAX brings ABS plus traction control and a brand-new 2026 flagship option at 800 ฿/day; Forza is premium comfort in the same class. Send us your dates and we'll tell you honestly what's available. ### Can I take a maxi scooter off the island? Around Phuket — no limits; crossing the Sarasin Bridge to Phang Nga — by prior agreement. Message your route on Telegram and we will advise on insurance. ## A maxi scooter at your hotel — today Send us the model, hotel and dates. We'll reply with the exact price and deliver the bike to your reception — two helmets included.
