    I have owned this Yamaha YQ50 Aerox R bike for 18 months now, I would completely recommend to anyone who wants to ride. I was 16 when I got this bike and now I have passed my full bike test I am very sad to be thinking about selling it. It has only ever let me down once - but that was when it needed a new spark plug. My scooter has got me out on the road and given me independence. If you are thinking about getting an aerox scooter do not hesitate they truely are fantastic first bikes.

    I love my Yamaha YQ50 Aerox. Its fast, looks good and its a real headturner. Its all stock except from the paint and exhaust. No bored rubbish that reduces reliability.

    Great looks.
    Fast for a 50cc.
    A lot of parts for this bike.
    Can do alot to the bike such as custom body kits.
    Overall very good bike I think its the best moped available in the range of 50cc mopeds.

    This is a very reliable scooter. I have it it a while now and nothing has gone wrong. I got the restrictors took out and new exhaust tuned to the max and goes 60mph top speed. Very fast!

    Aerox R is very good reliable scooter , I've had mine for 6 months now and not a single thing has gone wrong. To de-restrict this scooter you will need to take the washer out of the variator (wich will add 10 mph + on top end) then in order to de-restrict the exhaust fully you will need to buy a racing exhaust. My racing exhust was road legal when I got it but I got a piece of paper telling mre how to take the two restrictors out of it!! Which is very simple (one in the muffler) and (the end of ...

    This Yamaha YQ50 Areox R is an great 50cc scooter, I know they're expensive but trust me they're worth every penny. I paid £2,200 for mine brand new with helmet, locks , anchor, T.F.T insurace , C.B.T and a years RAC break down cover. Mine is the Valentino Rossi replica, stunning scooter. It'd done 32 mph when I first got it , so of corse I wanted the restrictors out, but I could only get the variator one out coz nowhere knows where the other ones are. Except the exhaust cone shape restric ...

    I've had the Yamaha YQ50 Aerox for about 6 months, it's reliable and was cheap. It is an X plate (2000) for its age it is in very good condition. They are a bit slow off the mark but with it derestricted and a little bit of tuning it's one of the best around.

    This Yamaha YQ50 Areox R is very good performance scooter.I was drove Kymco Bet and Win from my friend and I can say that this scooter is much better in performance. B&W have better amortization and he is bigger but I don't like steering wheel-it's so hard.
    GREAT SCOOTER!!!

    I had my Yamaha YQ50 Aerox R for round 6 months until I changed it for a Gilera DNA. The Aerox was a 2001 Virgin mobile replica. The bike was great while I owned it. It was very fast, and it couldn't be beaten by any other 50cc scooter in town, but I think the previous owner did something to the engine to give it the extra power, which might explain why the engine packed up and has been rebuilt four times (not by me). I swapped it just before the engine packed up (lucky me). The bike is pretty r ...

    I got the Rossi replica 2002 and it is the best moped i have ridden.It does just over 70 de-resticted but is quite scary because it only has little wheels.I raced it against a Speedfighter 2 and the Aprilla Spiderman edition and it just rips them up.

    If you like Aerox, Buy the Yamaha YQ50 Areox R! I know that the new engines are weak, only 2kw (that's for EU, I think). My Aerox have 4.6kw (6.3HP) and it was the best series of Aerox, trust me! I know!

    I have had this scooter for 1 month, and I don't regret that I bought it. I think that this model has no power in the engine, but with some tuning, it should go up to 65 mph.

    Had my Yamaha YQ50 Areox R Scooter for about 2 months and nothing has gone wrong so far. The brakes are good as they are brembo. Haven't de-restricted but probably will soon. Will the accleration get better if I de-restrict it?
