    Great vlog Alex. Been riding 300-400cc Scooters for the last 20 years. Couldn't ride anything else now. They are so practical, comfortable and still loads of fun if you get the chance to push them a bit on the twisty roads. Keep the rubber side down my friend. All the best from the UK

    Great video! I rode my AK 550 when i first bought it from Perth Australia to Kalgoorlie.. around 610km.. loved every minute of it, but i was very sore by the end of the day :)

    My brother was at the show, at the Indian stand /working for Indian at the show/ ... At the beginning, you showed the Kymco DTX 360 .. Like that scoot very much, thinking of getting it.. At the moment they are selling the test unit with a discount. Be careful with the UFO .. You promised to Danny last time during the long trip that you will show him inside some day and he will be jealous now. 😁😁😁 Marvelous trip, Alex.. Kudos.. p.s. Plovdiv the oldest continuously used city in Europe and one of the top of the world .. Dated to 6000 b.c. .. Of course, Jericho in the middle east is considered as the oldest.

    Hello Alex! Glad you didn't have to fight the rain. It was a great video, still enjoying that music.😊 This Kymco is amazing, but very expensive, although it is like a locomotive. So thanks for this 2 part video, it was great!😊 Be bad and do more road trips! 😊

    Wow another great trip video and yes the 400+ cc does seem to make for a great touring machine especially when fitted with a good windscreen and of course heated grips (yes doe show a video of the Max Sym 400 heated grip instillation). My little Vespa GTS 250 has heated grips and a medium windscreen comfortable 300 to 400km days when touring. Thanks and keep up the good work, best regards from Australia

    Very nice, as always. The only complaint I have is that Alex should have been in front a little more, so that we could also watch the Maxsym 400, and it would have been a good advertisement.

    I had the route so I kinda led the way, plus I have many re on road experience to point out potential hazards, it's safer this way, and he fells more comfortable following.

    Hey brother. Looking forward to meeting with you next weekend. It's interesting to me that you have (small) complaints about the AK550 leaving your legs a little cold. My Aprilia Tuareg 660 is precisely the opposite. Priced at around 12000 USD, my complaint about the Tuareg is the heat from the catalytic converter directly onto my shins. Let's call it a 'proper' ADV bike with similar options minus the heated grips. And I have the complete opposite experience. But, I also live in a desert environment where snow is absolutely not a thing. I think if we just swap, we'll both be happy 🤣

    Sorry, but for me to much electronics and buttons on this scoot. Give me a Sym 400 GT and have surely so much fun...and than the price of the Kymco ? Seems more a T-max price. Alex, I understand you have to try a lot of machines, but as a official Sym dealer...I don't see so much optimismo worth. With all my respects, however...
