2021 Sym Symphony ST200 - Owner's Review after 8000 KM

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

After over 6 months of ownership and over 8000 km it's finally time to give you my thoughts on the vehicle I chose as my personal scooter and bought with my own money. A 2021 SYM Symphony ST 200. This is the second generation of the ST and comes with a few very welcomed improvements compared to the previous generation. So join me for a full owners review of this scooter.

    I have had the bike since May 3, 2022. The issues with the wobbling began to appear two weeks ago when I was at 1400kms. I ha e done two services to it. Here in Greece they recommend 500km 1000km 2000km 5000km and so on. It is not the bike because a friend of mine has a "DONNIE," although a different colour, but nevertheless he also has the bobbling issue. He has had his ST 200 since July 2021. I am not sure when he started encountering the issue. Initially I thought is might be either a bearing or a alignment issue, but the mechanic at sym told me if there were other issues the bike would do other things apart from wobbling. SYM here in my part of Greece told me some thing which seems to be proving as a given and that is that the tires they put on at the factory are not the best. Supposedly they are made of nylon. Anyway, I enjoy your videos especially the trip through Europe and the middle east. Take care and be safe.

    Hi Alex, Great video covering all aspect of living with an ST200. I agree with your comments about tyres. My Euro 5 Fiddle 125 has a less than perfect rear tyre and after 3000 miles is needing changed - like you I’m going for Michelin Citygrip. In terms of long distances I think think scooters are more than capable of covering long mileage trips. I once took a 125 BMW C1 from Dundee (Scotland) to Rome and back. My only wish for the ST200 would be that it actually had close to 200cc - then it would be an even better machine.

    Hi and ty. I have the same scooter with 2500 km with everyday use. I agree in everything you said . The only thing I want to say is that the capacity of fuel tank is up to 7 lt. I checked it a lot of times filling it when I am on the last red bar and it takes about 6.5 lt. Based on this with my tank full I make about 170 km. The original tires I changed them immediately cause in the rain are very dangerous.

    Thanks so much for your detailed review. I’m in the market for either this scooter or the Kymco People S 150. I live in Sydney, Australia and my riding will be a combination of inner city riding but also some main roads and free ways (90km/h-100km/h speed limits). Time spent on such roads wouldn’t exceed 15-20 minutes at a time. On paper, the Kymco says it has a 10kw engine 150cc, and the Sym is 9kw and 169cc…do you have a view on which one will handle the freeways better?

    how does it fare up to the Jet x? the spec sheet makes it seem like with the Jet x you just get a free effecey boost and cooling. where even tho it's less CC it got the same Torque and HP? I wonder assuming this is true, that makes Symphony200 absolute or we just need until the revamp the model to get better specs?

    Ciao Alex, come mai ha voluto scegliere il 200 e non il 125 ? Visto che molti reputano migliore il raffreddamento a liquido? Quale sarebbe la differenza sostanziale? Vorrei differenziarmi dalla massa, prendendo un sym e non il solito SH o Piaggio, credo che andrebbe bene, lo uso per lavoro, soprattutto d'estate dove c'è più traffico del solito( vivo su un'isola) L'unico dubbio che ho è sull'assistenza ( garanzia,ricambi,)

    I chose the 200 for the extra torque and because I got a great deal on it because it was the 200. Normally the 125 liquid cooled is the one we sell the most and i think it's the better one. More fuel efficient and the same power. But now i have the 200 and I'm not going to sell it to buy a 125. I'll stick with this one :)

It may take a couple of weeks for the order to come through but it should work. If not, find the Givi/Kappa importer in Serbia and they can bring you one like mine.

    Nu prea exista, pe sasiurile astea mici nu cele mai puternice motoare sunt 15-16 cai atât. Pe vremuri făcea Aprilia modelul Leonard 300 care e o chestie hilara și stupida în același timp, mare cât un scuter se 49 dar cu motor de 300 😂

    Just take it easy on it. I did my brake in service at 500km when I changed the engine and transmission oils, after that fun and games. And my service intervals are every 2500km. It's going to be a bit challenging for me this summer because I am planning trips longer than 2500km so I will have to do oil changes on the road :)
