Sus at the Italian market !

Shunned by French scooter riders who blame it for its lack of space under the saddle, the large-wheeled scooter is on the rise on the other side of the Alps: in Italy, it is Honda’s best seller with no less than 34 000 SH (125, 150 and 300 cc) registered in 2010 !

So inevitably, such a success is envious: starting with Yamaha which decided to increase its presence in this category in 2012 with the Xenter (pronounce "X-Enter", specifies Yamaha Motor France).

Compact, this 4-stroke mono is cooled by a radiator placed in a lateral position (as on the 1200 Super Tenere!), In order to optimize the space allocated to the footrests ("the largest in its category", affirm the Yamaha engineers).
