Personal channel with things I find interesting, entertaining or helpful to others. Vlogs, rants, touring, how to videos, product reviews and what ever else I can come up with mainly centered around bikes, cars or anything with an engine.
Splitting lanes is more then allowed here. I'm not doing anything special, that's how you ride scoots in the city in Europe. I know in America it's not this way.
hey alex could you do another video with the sym adx 300? Maybe take it on the highway or to a small trip to learn more about the scooter like: top speed,fuel consumption etc etc.Also what is the approximate price around will it differ in romania and in greece tank you alex have a nice day
I have one U125,sold it at 21.000 km.Still going strong. But I believe more the CF Moto. My next bike,after SYM Jet X 200 at the moment,would be the NK300 CfMoto.
This is probably one of the most useful videos I have watched on RU-vid. It allowed me to stop my Carpuride device from fighting with my iPhone over audio control. Why this is not the default setting I hav no idea.
@@scobbiebhoy that mechanical key should work to completely unlock it and use it as a recular clasic key and have all functions. Make sure you are inserting it all the way.
Da, are niște vibrații, acum nu știu cum vibrează al tău ca ar trebui sa merg pe el sa vad dacă sunt vibrațiile normale sau e mai rău, dar toate de 300+ cu care am mers au niște vibrații dacă pleci foarte ușor pana cuplează complet ambreiajul (de regula pe la 20-25km/h).
I don't know... well I know I don't like videos with traffic rules not only been violated, but also making fun of it. As for your broken record for 125cc on B license... Where you are, based on our own videos, traffic is nothing special and city edge to edge distance according to you is 20km only. Don't expect lasting spike on sales of 125cc. They will figure out sooner what e-bike is less expensive and more stable in winter. And for just as 20km it is no need to burn gasoline.
E-bikes have been a thing here for over 10 years and still they haven't seen mass adoption. In the past 2 years bike sales have gone down a lot, people simply don't like them here.
Sorry to hear that :( The *exact* same thing happened to my VX800 a few months ago, except I always made sure to turn the petcock off if I was leaving the bike off for more than half an hour. There must have been something wrong with the petcock, because I did forget to turn the fuel on a couple of times and it still ran. I didn't really think anything of it, and didn't know about incompressibility until everything went tits up. I'm hoping to buy an XL600V, that's probably why your video was recommended to me, and I must admit that hearing your issue kinda freaks me out, but you gave a good tip for avoiding the issue, and now because of my VX800 I know that this kind of problem exists so I can be wary of it.
If you go through Serbia again, on the way to Italy, there is now a bypass around Belgrade and there is no need to go through the city of Belgrade. And on the highway, the average speed is measured at toll booths and between them. Stick to the limits and there will be no problems.👍👍🍻🍻❤❤
I'm probably going to go through Serbia, thank you for the heads up, do motorcycles pay toll on the highway? 2 years ago when I passed I didn't pay any toll.
@@RideWithAlex Of course they pay, it's category 1a! But it is not an expensive toll for motorcycles, at least in our opinion, since the toll is generally catastrophically expensive for us. Požarevac - Belgrade (A1 route) 1.5e! Belgrade-Sid (E70 route) 2.5e! That is your direction towards Croatia.
@@RideWithAlex Users of manual payment as a means of payment have the following available: CASH MONEY PAYMENT CARDS (VISA, VISA ELECTRON, MASTERCARD, MAESTRO, POSTCARD, DINACARD) SUBSCRIPTION CARDS (MONTHLY AND ANNUAL) CITY MAPS
I don't do it, both the zontes and the symphony have led lights and if you run with the high beams it hurts how much they blind you, I've seen people doing it here and I have spots on my vision after they pass.
From the outside the Zontes looks good. But at the start of the video I thought you were getting on a 90's Burgman. The plastic panel next to the screen is a huge empty space.
I am asking all the bikes stores here in Greece and nobody knows to inform me about this bike. Not even the release date for my country. why so mysterious ?
I moved recently from a Gilera Runner sp50 2 stroke from 2006 to a Linhai Buck 125 ADV - same scuter as a Keeway Vieste 125, Daytona Virtus 125 , Barton x trail 125 , and some Mitt Motors model. Did not get the chance to visit your showroom. I choose the Linhai because is the same bike as stated above but it has ABS and TCS. Lacks a bit of storage but incredible suspension.
@@sniperule2004 220km de vinerea trecuta. Pana acum se prezinta ok. Consum 3.6l/100km. Suspensia e diferita fata de cele de la keeway,daytona,mitt sau KL(italia), in loc de doua amortizoare verticale pe spate are unul in diagonala. Din cauza asta are spatiu mic sub sa.Dar vine cu top case si suspensia se simte foarte bine pe drumuri denivelate.
@@danalexanghel Mi-a placut Adx dar costa semnificativ mai mult. Mitt aveam senzatia ca se dezmembreaza mai rau decat sym-ul meu care are 20.000. Revizia la Linhai e la 2000 de km?
Da. Asa scrie in manual. Cred ca motorul este asemenator cu cel de SYM , care are cam aceleasi intervale. Dar considerand ca am venit la de la 2 timpi care in 2000km consuma cam 2L de ulei este ok.Motorul pare complex si bine asamblat.Am desfacut saua sa montez un sistem dvr. Cadrul pare solid , carnele colorate sunt albe vopsite cu rosu pe partea vizibila. Aripa fata este solida.Nu scartie plasticele pe el. In zona mea drumurile au multe denivelari. Suspensia este super. Fata de un PCX este cu 600-700 de euro mai ieftin dar ramane de vazut in timp. Inainte de al cumpara am consultat lista de piese de la asp group si sunt decente fata de o honda. Exemplu: un far de Honda pcx 2017 este pe catalog 500 euro iar la Linhai este jumate.
@@danalexanghel Misto! Honda are intervale de service foarte mari si probabil daca nu se caliceau la frana aia pe tambur era extraordinar! Nu l-am vazut pe viu dar pare mai impunator linhaiul comparat cu nmax sau pcx!Tot datorita lui Alex , pe mine m-a convins recent Cf moto mt 450.
Always love your comments going to work thru traffic, (all this time I thought I was the only “guy” who felt like that)?!😳😆Very interested in Fred & his performance? Do you know if you can change the odometer from KM’s to MPH? Best, Rola (Oregon / USA).
That's the funniest think I've heared 🤣🤣🤣🤣. 125cc and 150cc is the actual size of the engine, it's not an ecu limitation, it's the internal volume of the cylinder. You can't modify a volume with electronics.
Alex ,if you finally manage to visit the event ,take your colleagues and visit cape Sounio and ancient temple of Poseidon -you will be excited by the route and the temple itself ! It's only 15-20minutes ride from the event site !
Good morning Alex. Just wanted to let you know that at ~14 min to 16minm you forgot to duck the music bed below your narration. I am not sure if this worth a re-render, but just wanted to make you aware. Thanks so much for your work. Tim
@@RideWithAlex didn’t know if RU-vid lets you fix the video and re-upload without messing up your stats. For what it is worth, I could still hear your dialogue over the bed. I watched to the end. It was only that two minutes that was affected. Have a great day! Thanks. Tim
What a nice idea to drop you a visit and say hi, nice to meet you, been wonderful all these years! Pity I live in Athens. Next time I visit Bucarest hopefully you have a similar event!!
Keep your eyes on the channel Tuesday and Wednesday (community posts or videos), I might be in Athens and if I am I'll try to make some time for a meed and greet. Wednesday evening.
I am also waiting for the full review of the adx 300 with long distance riding, is it good, comfortable,reliable, does it squeak while driving,top speed and how much fuel does it consume on average, and then I will decide between it and the adx 125, but I'm also waiting to see what the zontes 368g will be like and whether it will be sold in Europe
Alex, how come u r still keeping Donnie now that it's kaput, and Brutus which is too big and u barely ride at all. U only have one bottom and Fred is all u need to do the job.
Brutus I'm not selling because he's too special, and Donnie I just parked him for this month, in October he's scheduled for work and prep work for the cannonball.
@RideWithAlex You are talking, listen it again :), you ca barely hear your voice, but it's there. From min 14 to 16:45. You are talking about a guy Marius from Brașov and how he bought an ADX while the loud music plays in the background 😅
Because I allready have a Sym (my Symphony ST 200) and the Zontes 350E fits my requirements for a long distance, high speed, distance crusher, ultra comfortable touring scooter perfectly.
@@RideWithAlex I want for city a scooter, in your opinion 125 its enough? or 200 better? Also, in your opinion, Honda PCX or Sym? I dont have experiences with scooters, I want reliability and practicality. Thanks!
sorry for bothering @Alex but my scooter Zontes 350e With Factory cameras But i don't know how activate and see troo my phone or my scooter screen if is posible! do you have any idea? ( sorry for my bad english )
Cześć, bardzo fajny test. Mam 172 cm wzrostu, i siedziało mi się na nim komfortowo. Dziękuję za twoją pracę - na polskim YT nie ma jak dotąd takiego testu. Pozdrawiam P.S. W jakim rumuńskim mieście był nagrywany ten test? P.S. ll Czy tym motocyklem dałbyś radę przejechać Trans Fagaras albo Trans Alpina? Albo wąwóz Bicaz? Za chwilę obejrzę 2 część o właściwościach terenowych moto.
Great review as usual, looking forward to a proper road trip test. If you get a chance test drive QJmot ATR 125, I would really love to hear how it compares to SYM. ATR 15 is now on sale in my country for as low as 3000 euros and seems to be a decent machine.
I've only had contact with a few QJ motorcycles but I was impressed by how solid and well built they felt. Unfortunately at the moment QJ is not available in Romania. Maybe in the future.
Today I finally got my Joyride with the Shad sh 46 ! This engibe just goes and goes with his 26 hp...Of course, I have to go quitely in the beginning. I am going to enjoy this machine😅
If I want to take the liquid cooled system I would have to engineer from scratch a new cylinder and a new cylinder head, I don't have the tools or expertise for that. I would need someone who works as an engine designer and also all the tools to prototype a new engine and testing...it takes a manufacturer years to come up with a new engine.
Latvia. If you hold B category, you are allowed to drive 125cc <=15 kW within the territory of Latvia. Other EU countries also have this rule, but one with B licence from Latvia can’t drive 125cc in other EU country. There is a special regula on EU site explaining this.
