The 300cc scooter category is probably the most versatile, capable for both open road and city riding.
Scooters between 25-40bhp are the sweet spot in my opinion.
Never get enough of riding with Alex POV, even more on a cruiser power scooter that he admitedly enjoys!!
Glad everyone is enjoying the 350E because I certainly am :D
Alex's grand plan is to keep using the showroom's 350 until its value gets driven down from the usage allowing him to buy it at a good discount. It's genius!
BTW what is that watch?
Let him cook!
🤫🤫🤫
😊
I know nothing, I see nothing!
I'd like to thank you about this series of videos about the Zontes 350E. I got convinced and I'll buy this bike until the end of this year. Greetings from Brazil!
Glad you enjoyed the videos :D
Alex: I thoroughly enjoy your videos, especially the way you filter through traffic in Bucharest, Romania. I've ridden two-wheel motor vehicles in the USA for 60 years, and I've never tried filtering. I vicariously "filter" via your videos. Keep producing great videos and ride safe, brother!!!
Thank you and glad you enjoy them 😁
Ma bucur de fiecare data cand postez. Tot asa si tot binele din lume!
Mulțumesc 😁
Thank you sir for displaying the connectivity feature ! :)
My pleasure 😁
My US Honda clone looks so much like it. Honda sells their popular Asian scooters to America under a different name. I have a 2023 compared to a Click 160 it's identical. Even most the parts are from the Same MFG. Absolutely Love it!! Extremely reliable efi
Love the 350E videos, seriously considering of getting one
Hello Alex!
I had to wait the whole day to watch this video.
I always smile when I hear from anyone that they are so passionate about something. Don't get me wrong, you sound like a big kid when you talk about this scooter. 😊
And that's cool, stay like that and never let the hype of fame get you.
As I see very soon you will have the round number on your channel.
Be bad and do road trips! ;)😊
I don't plan on changing my style anytime soon :)
I'm so pleased I found your channel been watching a few videos and I want a scooter now I had the bug a while ago but its come back big time
Thank you, welcome and hope you enjoy the videos 😁
Hello Alex! Congrats fot the 10.000 subscribers!🎉😊 You did it, you deserve it! Keep on with the adventures!😊
Thank you, it's unreal to look at this number, hard to grasp 😁😁😁. As time allows I'm planing trips, I really need to hit the open road again.
@@RideWithAlex I am not as patient as you, already doing my usual really short 100-150 km trips around where I live, and I love it. 🙂
Love your videos im having 2020 sym citicom 300i from south africa commuting 100km daily love riding keep up the good work
Thank you 😁
Amazing little trip, E350 prob will be my next Scooter also... Didnt know it has a mirror screen thing, thats awesome
Honestly I'm hoping by the time I can afford to buy a scoot they will have refreshed this model with a bigger screen that got andriod auto. otherwise it got everything!
Hello Alex , merci pour la video, sympa ce retour avec un ciel bleu et du soleil😅 , mon prochain scooter sera un zontes et cela est un peu beaucoup de votre faute 😮😊😂😂
31’40 😱🤪🤗
=)) Go for it, it's an awesome scooter.
Velcro strips make a great Temporary mounting option
As u know, i just got mine today from ur showroom. It gives u a lot of confidence to maneuver thru tight spaces cause its very stable. As for the fuel consumtion, after a few km, mine says 3.6 durring rush hour, with me beeing 100kg and also not driving very economical. I like it
Now it's time to plan road trips 😁
those blue lights look SICK! They give a lot of personality to the scooter! I hope you can get a good deal for the scooter. It would be great to pay directly from your job salary and not mess with financing. It`s a awesome machine! Fits you like a glove!
🤞
I am liking the Zontes 350E more each time I see it! Very envious for its size and all the gadgets that come with it! As mentioned before, only the Kymco AK 550 has as much to offer for twice the price (& larger size) for us in the US? Lucky you! Rola (Oregon / USA)
I'm pretty sure zontes will make their way to the US market, they are working towards becoming a global brand.
I hope you become really big youtuber with a lot of views and sponsors and you manage to pay it in full in near feature! It will be perfect to see next trip to China for example on 350E!
That would be something epic 😁
Nice shirt. Hell yeah brother
Great scooter
Good luck with the proposal!
Thank you :D
Hi Alex! Your videos are very cool, I enjoy watching them. Do you have any idea if I can mount a Shad SH48 case top on the Zontes 350E?
Thank you very much!
Probably if shad makes an adapter plate for it, as it comes stock it has no mounting plate on it.
awesome video! just bought the Zontes 350e as my first scooter at 20 years of age and I'm hyped! :) can you mention the cameras you use for the video? I WILL BUY THOSE
The front one is an insta 360 Go2 and the helmet one is a Gopro hero 7 black with a rode smartlav+ mic
Așa deci... Data viitoare când mai vin pe la voi, să mă prezint cu niște eclere 😊
Nu ar fi o idee rea 😂😂😂
i have this scooter since 10/23 and i really like it that you like it as match i do
Any issues with it?
Hi Alex, I like your style and I like this bike so much. Maybe, I will get it this spring (in Silver). I’d like to take it touring through the Eifel (West of Germany) and around. What fuel consumption would you expect for cross-country tours? Oh, and I like your gloves 🙂 Thanks a lot and all the best!
I think around 4l/100 km. That would be an awesome trip.

2.28 Romanian police EC 135. Since 2023 they also have 4 Black hawk helicopters!
Small tip - you can copy an address from google maps when you press and hold it for a second or so
Alex, which camera's do you use, both the pov and the front one
The front one is a Insta360 GO2 and the pov one is a Gopro hero 7 black with a rode smartlav+ lav mic in the helmet.
in terms of weight capacity, do you know if this scooter rides well with 200kg (2 persons)? or does the suspension suffer like happens with yamaha xmax?
I rode with that weight for about 300km and it was fine, suspension felt good and I could still dial some preload in
In terms of dimensiones..is it bigger than burgman 400?? Or x max 300...or beverly 400?? I mean,what is the personal feel when you sit on it
In terms of dimensions is almost identical to the Burgman 400 but the dash is a bit higher on the zontes and you feel like you sit more in it than on the Burgman.
Outside topic: what gloves you use ?? I need to get some gloves and i like yours .Mostly how they look cuz I hate the color to be honest 😂
Can you maybe share a link to the store ? ...I think we're about the same hand size ... so what size are yours 😅?
Thanks a lot in advance !
I use Odin MFG gloves, been using them for over 2 years

one thing I've been trying to find out for a while, what model year is this bike? the Zotes website says that it's offically a 2022 version. but marketing material everywhere show either 2023 or 2024. and there is basically zero info on what the diffrence between all of those are or if there is a 23/24 model in the first place! (if not, are they planning any updates at some point?)
I sent them an email and they didn't reply so IDK what's going on in this front.
Zontes don't update their models every year, this was first launched in 2022 and basicly is unchanged since then. The unit in the video is MY2024 but afaik is the same as a 2022.
@@RideWithAlex I see, that would explain it, and as far as you know, they have no plans or refreshing it anytime soon right (mostly intrested in waiting for a version with Andriod Auto)
@@Abd121 I have no info of any refresh.
Zontes is a major threat.
They sure look like it.
@@RideWithAlexwould sell like crazy in the U.s.
@@futureshock7425 maybe I'll ship this one to the US for a road trip 😏
@@RideWithAlex 🚴🚴🚴🤜🏻 hell yeah
Ăla era elicopterul MAI. MApN-ul n-are EC-uri. Sper să devii prorpietarul lui 350E. Multă baftă!
🤞
Hello... What fuel app you use?
I use an app called spritmonitor. They also have a website www.spritmonitor.de/en/
You can also check out my history with all my vehicles past and present :)

Thanks.. 👍🏻
@@RideWithAlex It's one of the best. I myself use it for my 'fleet' for 13 years now. Great app, recommended.
Finally Alex you will have new Zonnie?
If the deal goes through I'll let everyone know.
@@RideWithAlex still we need to guess the name of new beast
I have a briliant idea about the name, but I won't tell, 'cose I'm affraid that Alex will stole it, before I can register it to my name 😊
e cam mult 4,5l/100km pt un motoras de 350 si 37 caluti, pentru oras e suficient si un 125 care ia in jur de 2litri, consum de 4,5-5l deja e de motor de 650cc, chiar si unele masini se apropie de consumul ala in oras (citybug-uri). nu e prea eficient, ce anume la el merita 1000 euro in plus fata de m310?
Eu m-așteptam să consume mult. Tehnologia motoarelor termice și-a cam atins maximul potențialului. Deci... De unde să scoată 37 cp, mai mult decât toate 400 cc, dacă nu din plus de consum de benzină? Plus că mie, la drive-test, chiar pe scuterul ăsta, mi s-a părut cam turat, la relanti. Chiar și-asa, îmi place de mor și-mi doresc și eu, unul. Probabil c-a sa fiu primul din România cu cu unul modelul ăsta, alb. Că să fie vizibil. Plus că negru mat, mai am două motociclete. Probabil c-o să le vând, ca sa pot să-l iau.
Cu aplicațiile, probabil c-o să se rezolve. Ca și cu lumina albastră. Ai văzut ce-o să se poată schimba, din telefon
@@dariangheorghe4304 atat consuma un motor de 2x mai mare cu 2x mai mulți cai, nu e prea eficient. o fi ok de oras dar nu prea avem ce eficiență sa ii lăudăm cand n-o are
Cam pe aici se încadrează toate scuterele de astfel de cilindree, de ținut minte ca aceasta unitate iese frecvent la test ride-uri. Și știm cum merg oameni la test ride 😂
Nu am văzut, link dacă ai te rog.
I had Yamaha Majesty 400 05' model and that was a whale too. On specs was similar weight to the Zontes. The suspention was superb. But did not like it in the city at all.
I like it in the city, not as much as my symphony st but I can manage it.
The thing that I found most hard was if I want to change direction quickly or series of maneuvers like that left-right-left etc, the weight is biting me back. I always strive for the golden middle, so with my 160 kg Kymco 250 was OK @@RideWithAlex
@@Stefan_trekkie you have to learn to counter steer more agresivly, that's how I do it at least.
Are zontes scooters reliable?
They have been on the market for about 2 years, up to this point they have been reliable.
If battery runs out there is a spot to run the scooter just by puting the key near. You should know that. Before reviewing scooter get 100% familiar with it 🙂
Yes I know that, it's in the right glove box, my review on this scooter is on the channel since November.
@@RideWithAlex keep going,your reviews are amazing. I enjoy watching 🙂
@@vetteboki thank you 😁
Don like this Zontes dashboard, the Honda Forza has the nicest one 😀
It's not for everyone
I think Zontes should give you one for free... cause a lot of us will end up buying this bike because of You!
it's all your fault ! 😂
I don't think these Asian companies know or care about this style of marketing unfortunately. Upside is I keep my independence and can say whatever I want.
@@RideWithAlex Agred. But that is why I think they should try different and new approach to the market.
One YT channel such is yours has 100 times bigger influence on people in creating opinion about the product, then some commercial with pretty actors and deep voice in the background.
...I mean, how many CRFs did "scratchy socks" sold for Honda? ;)
@@aleksandarbozo1029 I personally know of 3 among friends 😂😂😂
@@RideWithAlex You see 😊.
And then I watched you ride the soul out of little Dany, and you got me to believe and to be sure that SYM is serious motorcycle brand.
@@aleksandarbozo1029 still riding Donnie. I'm not done with him yet, and I don't think I'll ever sell him.
It would have been my next scooter, but Zontes UK say it won't becoming to the UK because it doesn't comply with the law because of the blue lights. Now I find they just disconnect them in Europe, shame on you Zontes for lying.
:/
You' ll be even more angry If you' ll see a short video with what will be possible to do with the phone on that blue light...Play with all front lights when starting and change that blue colour
