Finally after 15 years of Yamahas iconic Nouvo, the NXV made its debut in 2017 and I was a big fan initially. On the plus side it had a great new look and the geometry if under 180cm tall is okay. Where Yamaha let themselves down was braking and suspension. A rear suspension upgrade on the early ones was a big improvement but the front end is soft out of the box though can be cheaply stiffened up. A rear drum brake on the 155cc model at least is just wrong. The passengers seat is thin and though I never ride pillion I imagine not too comfortable long haul. The 125cc version is bit slow out of the hole as the bike is considerably bigger than the Gen 6 Nouvo before it so the 155cc is better matched to the bike in my opinion. I had one of these as my personal town bike for a while and had my engine builder take it to 250cc. That certainly made it a fun ride but reliability was compromised long term. Worthy of note if you are 180cm tall plus, the leg room behind the dash is insufficient unless riding with your legs splayed which compromises safety and posture.
