Man. If I knew I was being filmed I would have led more! No worries. Hey, yall. Derek here. Brutus is definitely an entity that must be HANDLED. The 30yr old bmw 1100GS has a LOT of character. Boxer engines pretend like they want to lean. Low center of gravity allows it to change directions with much less effort than similar CC twins. I've ridden/owned a multitude of different bikes. The first few songs are always a little awkward. I am more typically staying upright as I lean a bike thx to my experience on dirt. Brutus wanted the opposite. This bike wants you to lean further than it does. Much like a sport bike or my '01 Tiger 955i. The easy way to differentiate the 3 positions is where you put your head. Inside, outside, or on the center line. Brutus wanted me inside the turn. Once I got that, and found the power band, it's a fun bike. I say all that to say this. Buy the bike and ride it. No relationship is perfect. The bike wasn't designed for you specifically. And you weren't designed specifically for that bike. The longer you're together, the easier it becomes. Are we still talking about motorcycles?

[@RideWithAlex]

Very good point! Also the things about motorcycles and leaning that was good too :)

[@ygeia_trws]

What a nice idea to admire both your loves on the road, and to take us with you on this trip of course!!

[@RideWithAlex]

It was interesting to see Brutus from a different perspective 😁

[@JVBNorway]

It is nice to see Donny out and about:) I have no doubt he will reach 100k km with no major troubles:)

[@RideWithAlex]

I'm almost at the half way point 😁

Thanks for sharing. I always enjoy your "almost Texan" accent. 😊

So nice of you to lend Brutus to Derek.

Hi Alex, thanks a lot for another inspiring vidieo combining nice landscape, usefull advices and sharing with us your nice and honest tghouts ! Congrats for the community which you're building step by step around your channel ! Best regards !

Thank you! 😁

Hello Alex! Great video, nice views, 'magic black box😅'. I see that your front wheel wobbling is still an issue, what is the cause if not the Michelin City Grip 2's? It seems pretty annoying now. The medium windscreen is not bad from our view, only the tinted screen is hard to see through, blocks some of the sights. Anyway, thanks for the video (editing)!😊😊

[@RideWithAlex]

It's the Michelin on the front, it currently has 38.000km so it's asking to be changed, but it still has some tread on it so I'm not going to change it yet, I can live with the head shake 😁

Very nice. I have been bicycle sport riding for a long time too and on a mountain descends I am a bit faster then the cars. Don't know what is with the cars and mountain twisties, but of faster straight roads they flying with very illegal speeds. p.s. My symphony SR 125 is making average around 2.7 in my daily commutes and around 2.2 outside the city @ 70 to 80 kph

[@miroslav.liptak]

Hi Alex, great work, I like your videos. Normally, I consider that I will also buy a Symphony 125 because I don't have group A. Do you think it will be a big difference compared to the 200? And I wanted to ask what holder you have for your phone. Thank you and I wish you all the best.. Wheels down

[@RideWithAlex]

The difference is very small between, you can do anything I did with mine with a 125. The phone holder is a Quad Lock Mirror mount.

Salut Alex! Acest parbriz pe care l-ai montat este mai "scund" decat parbrizul mediu de pe site-ul sym? Asfalt uscat si mersi anticipat!

Do you have the anti collision blindspot avoidance system on your mirrors? They used to have the colour yellow which confused ppl thinking your indicating. Can you review it?

[@RideWithAlex]

Literally the video I uploaded before this one is the review of this system. =))) kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGrCnGOkZph-nJY

YOUR SYM 200 HAS BEEN MUCH MORE RELIABLE THAN OASIS HONDA . Honda fanboys will not admit it but hondas reliability has been slipping backwards for years . Look at the new honda cbr1000rrr . Its a lemon , inherent overheating problem , frying ecus oil coolers/lines breaking/melting con rod recall/failurers ect ect

[@RideWithAlex]

I'm not going to comment on other brands but I'm very happy with the reliability on my scooter. And although people have commented on the reliability I think with it's curent history it's on par with the big manufacturers.
