Sym Symphony ST200 - Up into the mountains Pt1

[@gergobozsik1614]

Hello there Alex! Until today your Cruisym road tour video was my favourite, but I'm just watching your previous videos one after another, and this road trip has been even better! :) Slower speeds, beautiful environment, good basic food, great music...all in one place. This video is my answer if someone asks me why I chose a scooter. :) Thank you, thank you, thank you! Ride safe! :)

[@RideWithAlex]

Glad you're enjoying the videos 😁

[@nicholaskalogris9985]

Love your commentary on your Moto VLOGs! Makes me want to visit Romania!

[@jpmfx]

your dventures are always a pleasure to watch

[@RideWithAlex]

Thank you! 😁

[@Petitchat2021]

You are really pleasing me with these road trips. I feel like riding with you. Will get the first service Thursday of my kymco at 1000km made in 3 weeks 😮 and next trip for me will be 270km to Valencia and 1 night camping and back home 🏡 next day. Thank you. You made me buying the machine😂😂, I wanted to buy the same scooter than you but it is not available in Spain.

[@RideWithAlex]

Have fun on the trip :D

El 125 es igual de bueno y fiable. Tengo la Symphony 125 st y es una maravilla. He puesto un variador de la casa Sym y tengo más fuerza a bajas revoluciones.😂 Velocidad de 117 a 125. Pero voy a 95 durante distancias más largas...Una pasada de scooter. Baúl y pantalla te iran de maravilla. Bolsa en el asiento atrás y pasarlo pipas. Saludos desde Mallorca. Fui a ver a mi hija a Jaén. 500 kms. sin ningún problema. Tengo 67 años, pero parece que tengo 50 con mi Sym. Mini camera y móvil y adiós...Si tienes 150 € monta Michelin Pro City 2...Una maravilla de comportamiento...!

Thank you for sharing this beautiful area with us, and encouraging people to get out and enjoy two wheeled riding. It's true that you don't need a lot of horsepower. Stay safe, ride well.

[@rolacook222]

Back tracking, taking your videos as they come👍🏻Enjoyed this ride especially just before you stopped for the day, (was great to hear your friends greet you)! Love the music breaks, (inspiring while you glide along the road). Absolutely agree with your ride / life philosophy of just get out & go, (ride), “don’t over think it”, use what you have. Best, Rola (Oregon / USA).

[@RideWithAlex]

It's best to not worry about things when you leave, we live in a modern society with smartphones and cell service, if anything happens you call a tow truck so there's no reason not to take the "risk"

[@rolacook222]

@@RideWithAlex Absolutely right! Plus being able to “think” your way past the inconveniences, obstacles & PIA’s in life, that’s what builds character!

[@tackfarinaszeus57]

I like these long trips .. good luck✌

[@RideWithAlex]

New trip with Donnie coming soon 😁

[@BaumeisterKnese]

I had a smart car with which I drove over 160000 km. Everywhere, even long holiday journeys via the German motorway. Many have said that they would never do that. I loved the car, it was a lot of fun. Often it is more fun to be on the road with small vehicles at the limit than with an overpowered one that is just bored. From my point of view, you also learn more about driving.

[@raphaeldukhan]

Beautiful!! Loved the Adventure's description at @4:45!! Hilarious

[@RideWithAlex]

Thank you :)

[@alexandrosmp1]

I have taken trips to villages in Greece, with similar if not steeper curvy roads, with a 125cc. I have done it with the 11hp and 13hp. Eventually I will get a 300cc scooter.

[@buonlangee.2815]

Wow

[@Sweeedy1]

Very enjoyable trip, just wish I could turn the music off. I prefer engine and the ambient sound, even if it's only wind noise.

[@davidzech6458]

Thanks for the the great videos. Can it maintain 80kmh up a longer hill?

[@RideWithAlex]

Depends how steep the hill is but it usually can.

[@davidzech6458]

@@RideWithAlex agreed, maybe it was a dumb question, maybe a better one be is it noticeably better uphill than an average 10-12hp 125cc scooter.

[@RideWithAlex]

@@davidzech6458 a little bit yes, if you leave the stock roller weights you can really take advatage of the extra torque.

[@soraby5836]

Bravo awesome video can you tell me something l am 192cm 100 kg can you tell me what is god for sym model for me

[@RideWithAlex]

You have to go to a showroom and sit on it. I fit good on it but I'm only 175cm tall, you have to test it for yourself and see how comfortable you are on it.

[@EndritBs]

Alex,your SYM which rpms start to move? And what stock rollers and gear ratios it have? My Jet X 200 start moving at 4400 rpms,and want to start less rpm and stay 100 kmh at less rpm like SYM ADX

[@RideWithAlex]

Between 4-5000 rpm the clutch engages and it begins to move. If you want to reduce rpm at high speed then you will have to search for an aftermarket variator, this one from Dr. Pulley should fit: drpulley.co/product/over-range-variator-kit-181402/

[@EndritBs]

@@RideWithAlex I heard some start at 3000 rpms,is like it screaming at 4-5000 rpms to move! I will check for this variator I want to make this 200cc cruiser like,not accleration city beast!

[@EndritBs]

Alex sorry for bothering this link you send me can it fit in my Jet X 200 perfectly? Cuz I will buy it.

[@RideWithAlex]

@@EndritBs i think so, this fits my ST200 and we should have the same transmission. You check the site and check the measurements. Or call your local Sym dealer and get the part number of your Variator for your scooter and I'll check if it's the same part number as mine.

[@EndritBs]

@@RideWithAlex It is definetly like yours.In everyway.Like Jet 14 200i also,so it sure fits. I will go to mechanic to change it

[@nikosspanakis4913]

Hello from Greece. Is this Symphony 200 with the air-cooled motor?

[@RideWithAlex]

Yes, it's the air-cooled 169cc engine

[@genniferrante]

Do you also advice It for 200 km trips? I'm thinking of buying It.

[@RideWithAlex]

The trip you just watched was 240km and I regularly do 3-400km trips with it. It can do them, 80-90km/h cruising speed al day long

[@genniferrante]

@@RideWithAlex thank u Alex !!👍👋👋

No ideea.

2023 sh 150i it's definitely faster,it has 16 hp

[@Gregorynas]

Very nice upgrating video with informations about your country. Only one, you must make 20-25 min video . In that case you may part 1 and part 2 including videos of drone. Keep going

[@RideWithAlex]

I really enjoyed this trip and I decided to let the videos long, there was much I could of cut out, but let's say this video and the next one is a bit self-indulgent :))

[@tonycookson5608]

this. scooter is just 169cc not 200 its just a badge.bhp is only 12.yes 12?.but decent mid rang pulling from it.i understand it can reach 72 mph.this is not about performance.sym are big and have a good record of quality products.not sure about the next comment i make they are part owned by hyundia i was told.great video

[@RideWithAlex]

It's more of a 125 with a bit of a stronger punch off the line, but currently it has done everything I've asked of it and I think it will keep on delivering the more I ask of it 😁

[@tonycookson5608]

as a retired mechanic /mot tester these smaller units are light years ahead of the game these days.with a owner like you it will last many years service.long trips are better than constant short commutes.regards

[@yannnos]

Where is this place? Country?

[@RideWithAlex]

You can search on Google maps. The nice part of the road starts from "Topoloveni" and I ended in "Podul Dâmboviței"
