Yes… for me too..

I live in Queens, NYC. If I don't secure the bike with handlebar lock and a 10mm hardened steel chain with heavy high security padlock, my scootz will be gone by morning. If I don't secure the cover, it will be gone by morning. I've lost 2 already. I miss living in an area where people have respect for someone else's property.

ah nice to see a fellow Sym rider and enjoyer from overseas greetings from Algeria

Very useful information about driving in ice and cold weather !

I also do have a windscreen like that in my sym HD300 and i also open the helmet windscreen while traffic to a better vision

Hi Alex ,keep up the good work with your intresting videos .Grts from Belgium.

Hello Alex! Thanks for the detailed winter motorcycle clothes listing. I was really waiting for this kind of content from you. :) Ride safe!

Hi Alex I have watched all your videos that you have made and they are brilliant and have made me laugh can't wait to see your new sym show room. I'm 54 year old lol and when I see you on the sym adx 125 cc on your trips, it's made me think 🤔 to take my CBT in the next 2 months and get that bike 15 ltr fuel tank done that for me and I like the abs and traction control you sold that bike to me. Do sym make there own engines?? Did look at honda pcx but only has a small fuel tank. Can wait to see more of your videos keep up the brilliant work 👍

I used to ride in the snow in London, but if you ever need to pull off the clear strip of road to avoid something unexpected - which usually then involves braking, then you're screwed... the interlinking brakes then locks your front and it dips.

I love your videos! I wonder why you chose this bike as your daily driver and I'd love to get your opinion on the symphony 125cc S.. it is way cheaper than st but is it good?

@RideWithAlex

It's a good machine but it's missing ABS. If it's available in your market and you want something cheaper the symphony SR has an ABS version.

In Europe you guys suffer in winter, while we in middle east suffer from heat & humidity during summer

Hey Alex, thanks for your great content! On my Piaggio Beverly 400 I have the problem that the cables of the throttle are frozen for the first 5-10 minutes, so I can hardly accelerate. Some moisture must have gotten in there. What can I do? Replacement would be very expensive. Is it urgent, or can it wait (until next year)? THANK YOU!!!

@RideWithAlex

4 ай бұрын

To be honest I've never had that problem and don't know of any fix. What I would try is maybe go to workshop and blow some high pressure compressed air through the line, might just blow dry all the moisture. Don't know if it will work but it's worth a try 🤷

Alex show us the Burmang 400 please

Don't have a burgman 400 to show :)))). If I ever get my hands on one I'll film it.

What would be your pick for the "softest" ride? I've got spine and pelvis issues and would need the suspension and seat to really absorb the road. I live where there are lots of bumps and potholes. Thank for any advice. Would something like the Honda Cub 125 be a better choice with the 17" rims?

@TheRealTragicallyInept

4 ай бұрын

I have a CT125 and a scooter. I've also had spinal fusion surgery a year ago and suffer from back issues. The Trail is better with potholes, as you said the 17" wheels do better for those. The seat on the Trail is okay for around town or short trips but for longer road trips you'll want to improve the seating somehow. I've added an air-pocket cover for mine but can't say it helped much. For me the bigger issue was lifing a leg over the seat. The scooter allows for me to just get on it without having to embarrass myself trying to hoist a leg over. Hope this helps with making a decision. Ride while you can, amigo, stay safe!

It's not the rims, it's the suspension. Tbh the bikes with the best suspensions are adv bikes. I don't know of any scooter that comes close to those.

@@Ayjkuiwiwe deci ai zis asa, "nu e safe sa mergi pe moto ca e zapada/gheata/mocirla pe sosea" este o afirmație extrem de falsa și tu ai folosit-o de parca ar fi adevărată punându-te singur pe un piedestal deasupra mea (aka tu stii mai bine).

De aceea ne place aceasta libertate și de aceea mersul pe 2 roti este atât de terapeutic, pentru ca este atât de periculos indiferent de vreme și te face sa te simți atât de viu ca te aduce atât de aproape de moarte. Mi-ai dat idee de video, mersi 😁😘
