I recently met two riders in Gouritz with these bikes and they were extremely happy with them. Had them fully kitted for an additional R15k. Apparently these are Suzz engines so thats good as well. Hope your wife has fun learning to "look where you want to go and you will go there" and to never look down. Have fun !!!
Lol..Wow...🤭 Sym Adventures is becoming a global institution!!...I see some some very interesting alphabets on the names of people commenting..lol 😅.. you’ve opened Pandora’s box. I had a suspicion that there’s a huge demand for a proper English review on these bikes, and you delivered. That was a great review, I truly hope you get more views and subs (and I think it’s already happening🤔)... you and your wife riding is lovely and cute...lol...and funny too, keep it up.😌👌 Regarding your audio, I’ve noticed some of my favorite bike TH-camrs (Cyclecruza for example, I think he made a couple of videos over the years about his helmet setup🤔) use a “dead-cat” microphone cover for their setups... they don’t get wind noise at all, with or without a windshield. Some of them ride sport bikes or dirt bike without any wind protection and their audio is just perfect. Maybe you can look into that 🤷♂️. I think you might have accidentally found yourself a gold mine ☝️😌🤷♂️ Keep them coming!!! 👌
Thank you for the advice . Do not really know what else to put out their . I am glad for all the views and happy to see South Africans be so passionate about riding . We recently done 220 km trip to the sea and back and it was excellent .

Nice review. Very good motorbike for what it is built for.
Good review! Wife and I also recently purchased the 200 and very happy. We also added the crash bars, extended touring screen and top box bracket. In addition to that we also added the soft luggage brackets for the sides. Need cheap hand guards? Order the guards that fit on the Sym Crox 125 - when standing in front of the bike the left hand bolts on, no issues. The right hand one you just need to make an extension plate to make it fit.
@@cj52za We bought from Thundercycles in George, speak to Nicolene. Just note that the items are locally produced and not factory - if you are techically minded you will be able to make small adjustments and fit spacers, drill othet holes etc. Alternatively, bike shops will be able to assist.
Just bougt 2 x T200 bikes for me and my wife, my friend also bought one = 3 new sym T200 owners. Ordering our crash bars and extended screens this week. Please share the tyre brand shown in this video? Thanks
Hey that is excellent news glad to hear that . The wheels are a mitas 07 enduro trail ,very good wheels 4000 km on the clock and they look the same the day we bought them. Another bit of advice lookup videos on how to check dates on wheels as they only have a 5 year life span.I would love to get some pics posted on our face book if you dont mind
Hey, I'm licking mime up tomorrow. How were you able to fit the top box?? The original bracket doesn't look like you can just mount it onto it??? Any tips please??
Hi , yes by us its normally dry but temps drop into the minus and we have not had a problem. On our Plentenburg video it rained all day and we had no problems
Hi, just found this video. Just what I needed. Looking at the Sym or the new Hero Xpulse 200 4v. Both value for money. The Hero would be top pick, butay stretch the budget a bit. Thanks
Hello ,yes I've been a bit lazy by creating content but I can tell you the syms are going strong ,we recently done a six hour off road no problems . One change we did is chain and sprocket at 6000 km and that made a big difference to free way speed .Really enjoying so much so we have Kawasaki 650 standing nest to them in the garage and our off-road go to bikes are the syms
Hi there. Been looking for a good review on these bikes as im thinking of purchasing one myself. How have you found the reliability and comfort on longer rides?
Do you still have the bikes - if so how many kilos have you put on them and how reliable are they? They seem like really good value for money for a commuter, didn't think one would be able to actually do proper touring with these. Do you know if they're fuel injected or carb fed?
yes we do still have them , we added 650 versus to our stable for touring long distance but we use the sym as our go to bikes for off road adventure . We really get far with them dont think we will trade them in soon unless sym bring some thing out in 650 range
Good day hope i will get help here... I recently bought a 2021 SYM nht200 with 7000 km on the dash the previous owner fell with it n it broke the clutch lever its now hard to put in gears tried to adjust clutch cable but no help and it occasionally loses power when going uphill like totally lose power but mostly it drives very smooth when u engqge the gears Wat myt be the problem im really enjoying it n not thinking of selling it
I dont really know how much they charging you .We got ours as a extra when we purchased the motorcycles. Their is videos out there showing how to put in on and that's not really hard to do and i would recommend to get hands on when it comes to these issues. Only important thing to keep in mind here is to get the right crash bars
Thank you very much . Its South Africa ,area the Klein Karoo . Lots of nice trails here with attraction that include the world famous Cango caves. Where you from ? Do get these motorcycles in your area
@@symadventures2914 Really appreciate your quick reply. I am from Iran but I live in Spain. I was in my country 2 months ago and I was about to buy one of these bikes there after reading some reviews and watching some videos. Unfortunately I finally didn't make it. Now I am back here to Spain and I found out that the only country in Europe where Sym sells this model is Greece! It's really a shame! I have a big naked bike here but I wanted an adventure bike to do some soft off road! . Hope I can visit this beautiful place in South Africa some day! Thank you again and ride safe.
Hi, Looking to get this bike and do some solo travels, I take it you are still enjoying it ? Could you please let me know where you bought your add-ons ? I would like to buy crash bars and proper metal bark busters to protect the front brake and clutch, really like fact you are in SA and doing very similar roads to what I will be doing, no problem with ground clearance on some of the more ruggade dirt roads I hope ? Lastly do you have any input on soft luggage and the supposed center stand that is meant to come with the bike ? Thanks again for the great review and helpful video.
We bought from Thunder cycles in George. The support and after service is very good.No issues with ground clearance and we have taken them everywhere. I regret not taking the center stand but it was offered as a option , soft luggage we will add in time as for now we doing daily routes. tx for watching ride safe.
Bought a damaged Sym NH 125 T with only 1200km. ... def need the crashbars, those tank panels are like porcelein. And Suzuki South quoted me almost R7500 for both sides excluding decals, another R3000! Ok bike, seat not comfortable after half an hour. Pretty flimsy feel to it, Honda XR built solid and plastics can take falls without breaking! To me a good 6/10 bike!
Hi yes i see what you saying and i guess a 6/10 is fair but for the price to begin with a 200 Sym like my wife did has brought us great times and memories
@@symadventures2914 thanks a Ton. So glad I found your videos. I've liked Sym for a long time and seeing the journey you and your vrou have done has just really enriched my want for one. A really awesome little bike for the beginner adventurer🙏
35 thousand rand each bike plus 5 thousand for all the extras that is brand new . The cost upfront is a bit but after that its very cheap . With a 11 liter tank of fuel one gets 350 km .
Hallo to all the biker friends out there! I need advise please. 😊. I must choose between the Suzuki 150Gixxer or the SYM 200 NHT. I know it is different bikes with different target markets. In South Africa they cost ± the same and to me they both look fantastic! Which is the best for my money? I will only use it as a run-about, mostly for fun. Will probably only do about 50 km per week, 99% in town. Sometimes less.
Hello Dirk ive been riding the SYM 200 NHT not much experiance with regards to the Suzuki 150Gixxer but i do think its a nice looking motorcycle but its looks more street and sporty oriantated . The SYM is a much more versatile bike but that my opinion . Its low km you will be doing but get a Sym and in time you will put more km in
Wow sorry about that. That hondas is a nice bike almost want to say beter than the sym . Wife and myself have switched to honda africa twins now but good luck on your decision
Hi no not really we ride easily 100km a hour but after that its a struggle. It is a very fun bike and can handle almost anything. We do ride on highways one just has to be more vigilant
it was about 6 months ago we sold all 4 ,two syms and two Kawasaki's . We needed something that could do both tar and gravel very good because we plan big trips during the year like Namibia and Botswana
Thank you so much, watched your replica yesterday very nice trail to brush up on skill. I dont normally drive December and January has i spend it with grand kids but would like to get together some some time to swap ideas and do a ride.
Hi yes i would and i would go as far as in saying it can even stay as a permanent bike for even when you upgrade to bigger just to do fun quick shopping or just to sharpen skills
Hi , ja daars nie fout met die bike op grondpad. Dit ry baie goed op grond paaie .Ek sal net aanraai jy verander die bande vir off road en jy sal nie terug kyk vir die waarde
