Hi Alex, I really appreciate your enlightening videos about cruisym. They have helped me to make up my mind to buy it. Keep going!

Thank you, I try to put out as much info as I can.

I really love the Cruisym I bought from you guys last summer. Hands down one of the most pleasant scooters I have ridden and the price is correct for what it offers. I can hardly wait to put on it heated grips...those plastics around covering the handlebars are a real pain in the proverbial butt so I would prefer to be done by professionals :P Stay healthy and see you soon, my friend !

Hi Alex! I'm glad you made this video. I like this category of scooters. My feeling is that they are all in one. I was close to buy one, but after I took the A driving license, I didn't resist taking a motorcycle. So I took an all in one moto 😀 (a Honda NC750X). Anyway, I still believe that this type of scooter is suitable for commuting and weekend/occasional travels outside the city. I am thinking of coming to SYM for a test drive with Cruisym 300i. Who knows what I will take after NC. ;)

Another awesome video! It looks like the cruisym 300 is an awesome scooter. I would like to see you do a review of the joyride 300, as it is one of the bikes I have thought about getting. I have not seen a hands-on review of that bike and would like to see it on this channel. Be safe!

The way a scooter is constructed the biker the wheels the bigger and taller the scooter as to be, remeber your feet are behind the front wheel completely and your ass is on top of the rear wheel. 16 is enough for scooters.

This thing has 26.2 torque at 6750rpm and 26.4hp at 7500rpm. While Joyride gets 26 torque at just 6000rpm and 26hp at 8000rpm. So Joyride seems to be better overall on engine specs. I wouldn't mind if Cruisym gets a 350cc engine, so that atleast can justify more the title it has. With a price tag of around 5800$, it could be a nice middle ground between joyride and maxsym.

@RideWithAlex

the joyride engine is a little bit different because of the cam shaft with a bit of a different profile and the roller bearings. that's where the difference in power comes from.

Yeah, here it's legal and even if it wasn't, in my case with my 125cc scooter, I would still lanesplit on the premises of "catch me if you can" especially when everything is stuck, including police cars, and they know they have almost no chance of catching us 🤷‍♂️🥳 . Yes, it's true that during the "riding season" of the year we also have cops on BMW R1200RT bikes, but, to be honest, last year I was overtaking the entire queue of cars over the double continuous lines, rush hour, following a cop who wasn't on a mission and at the red light we greeted each other 😂😅💪 . The "unwritten law" here is "as long as you don't disturb anyone, you are free to breach many rules" because we are not the traffic jam 🤷‍♂️ . Ride safe!
