Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports vs Yamaha NMAX 125

The Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports (2026) and the Yamaha NMAX 125 (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports is a adventure bike with 1,084 cc, 100.6 hp and 253 kg; the Yamaha NMAX 125 is a scooter with 125 cc, 12.1 hp and 132 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 306.6 hp/ton versus 58.3 hp/ton. On this measure the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports is 426% ahead.

In the simulation the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 3.08 s and the Yamaha NMAX 125 in 20.34 s; the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports is quicker by 17.26 s. In the 60-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 14.9 m for the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports (with ABS) and 17.9 m for the Yamaha NMAX 125 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports stops 3.0 m shorter. The standard 60-0 test is used because one calculated top speed is below 110 km/h. Calculated top speed: 202 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 99 km/h (GPS measurement).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for both.
