Which muffs for Xmax 300 (2024 Tech Max)?

Post by Rich_H9 »

Anyone got any muffs? I've never had them before. I'm leaning towards these:

but these:
https://www.tucanourbano.com/en/product ... r363-black
and these:
https://www.tucanourbano.com/en/product ... 4pro-black
also fit.

Why can't they just make one type, so it's easy?

So, any help appreciated.

Re why, it keeps raining and I have heated grips. I like the idea of having just one pair of light leather gloves. And muffs are cheaper than multiple pairs of gloves. Yes, they're fugly, but then my scooters fugly too (compared to say a Ducati 748 or an MV Augusta F4.

If it helps, I've been using the R363 muffs (or something very similar) on my Tmaxs for the last few years. Very easy to fit, if you ignore the instructions!! The R369 look the same except that there's access to some sort of switch gear. Worth looking into that, as modern scoots with all the electronic gizmos may be difficult to access with conventional muffs.

Muffs are well worth it - keep your hands very warm and dry, though they take a small amount of getting used to. Tucano muffs are without doubt the best and most effective muffs out there - Italians clearly understand the need for warm hands! Infinitely more effective than any sort of hand guards.

I have Givi Universal muffs for my Forza 350; I had them on my Silverwings, too.
They work for me.

369’s arrived and are being returned. You have to put a spacer on the grip, towards the switch gear. I have Yamaha heated grips. I don’t think I have particularly large hands, but I already wish the grips were longer. With the spacer on there it’s too tight even without gloves, it will irritate me.
Also, you need longer bar end bolts which aren’t supplied. Not a big problem in itself, but something to be aware of.

As I said, I've used the 363s or similar for several years. The instructions were amazingly complex and best ignored! With the 363s you slip the muff over the bar (slot for brake lever), the muffs have a rubber cup that slides over the bar end, which you secure with a cable tie (supplied). Simple. No need to mess with bar end weights or spacers or whatever!

Barkbuster Blizzards for me too on my Forza 350 as recommended by Stephen

Very pleased with them, don’t interfere with switches or my Turmoscud
