- In this video we take a very close look at the 2021 SYM NH-T 200 Euro5 (Dafra NH 190) to see if it is a proper adventure bike, or just an impostor. We go through it with a fine tooth comb from front wheel to rear tail light to see exactly what this bike is made of.

This is really a very good review and highlight all the specs on this motorcycle. I have two of them and very happy
Looking at these in Kenya, very valuable insights, thank you for making this video!!
My pleasure :)
good review and explanation, thank you so much alex.
My pleasure :)
That’s quite a compelling package. I’m knocking on a bit now age wise and I find this engine size and weight bracket very appealing. I have big bored my Varadero 125 to this 180cc size and its about perfect for me. I find highway riding is about as much fun as watching paint dry so 80-90kph is what I enjoy on the back roads but I can do 120kph if I need to. Off-road, its light and easy to handle. Perfect.
Thumbs up. I like how you review it. Hope for more vids. Thanks
Thank you, I post at least once a week. It's harder now in the winter with the cold but at least 1 video a week for sure.
Just got my own Sym NHT200! Done about 120KM on it and absolutely loving it! Really nippy bike and really big in real life. I have done 110KM/PH and It runs smoothly and does not shake. The lights are super bright for night riding and the seating position is really comfortable. The black model with the camo is very, very sexy and the carbon fiber finish on the fuel tank is really nice. Very happy with my purchase. Thanks for the review, it helped me make my decision.
My pleasure! 😁
Excellent review methodology for a small bike!!
Thank you
O consider cea mai corecta motocicleta pe care o poti cumpara ca incepator. Sunt convins ca ma va multumi pe masura :D
Perfect Bike for occasional dirt track etc but mostly around town and occasional light highway use! Excellent Review!
You hit the nail on the head 👍. And thank you for the appreciation! 😊
Really??? Damn I thought I could take it to frequent light offroad and long travels. I have been ripped then
Thinking of buying this seems like a pretty good deal and first bike
Thank you, I'm looking to buy one in South Africa and this was very informative and helpful.
Wait to see tomorrow's video, the NH-T 300 is going live😁
Ditto also from S.Africa and eyeing one for work commuting, home - work is only 14 km , so this will be fine , had a XT 600E Yamaha😉 previously .
I own the 2019 model with 23k km already, cheap maintenances, +/- 40km/lt of gas, good height and weight. Waiting for the 300 version to arrive. Short light is week but nothing is perfect. Greetings from Costa Rica
I'm waiting for the 300 too, I want to see how this bike handles the extra power and if it makes it more fun.
Very good review 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you!
Eu tenho a nh190 e quando chega aki no Brasil a nh T300 vou compra com a bênção de DEUS
hi alex. thanks for the great reviews and efforts. beween the zontes T2 AND THE SYM NHT300. which one would you personnaly consider buying for very light off roading and mainly highway travels?
Mainly highway i would say the T2. The NH-T is more barebones, it's a lot simpler bike, that's why it's also cheaper.
@@RideWithAlex thank you very much alex
70th comment here. :)
I've found you because I'm thinking to buy one (NH 190), and I'm researching about reviews like yours (one of the best, if not the best, that I've found).
Did you know that this motorcycle have OBD2 plug, and that you can plug the ELM327 bluetooth adapter? By that you can increase the ammount of engine informations (this is something that I value) using your cellphone.
Thanks for the video! Great content!
Sorry for my english. Not my native language (I'm from Brazil - we speak portuguese).
Thank you for the kind words. All Sym euro 5 models use an obd2 port and you can use that adapter :)
Can you remap it that way?
Hi Alex! Nice video, as always!
Please let me know how a 1.85 & 100kg guy will fit on this bike.
I’m more worried about the legs rather than the weather protection which can be resolved with a bigger screen. Thank you!
You should fit just fine on it.
@@RideWithAlex thank you! I’ll pay you a visit.
Salut!
Daytona Winner 200 vs SYM NH-T 200
Nevăzându-le în realitate niciodată, nu știu ce aș putea să aleg. Par similare la prima vedere... Ceva opinii?
Apropo, superbe review-uri!
Nu ar putea fi mai diferite. Este fix povestea dintre Zontes X2 si T2. Winner-ul este un tourer iar NH-T-ul este un adventure. Depinde ce preferi tu si ce urmeaza sa faci cu ea.
Can you do a video on how to change the oil filter and general maintenance of the bike?
It doesn't have an oil filter, it has a metals screen that you clean, it falls out when you remove the drain plug. The bike isn't myne and also I recommend if you buy it new to service it at the dealership as to not affect the warenty.
@@RideWithAlex that is awesome advice, thank you very much for this. I can now sort my bike out finally. The last time I did the oil I didn’t fully take out the drain plug! Do’h….oh well. I’ll live n learn. Thank you for this
Hello Sir, thank you so much for your review.
2 years on, how's the reliability? How is the client reviews that you have dealt with and how is SYM wth honouring their waranty?
Thank you kindly in advance for your response
Reliability is on par with other big manufacturers, in terms of warranty work that's dependent of your local dealer. You can have a good or a bad experience depending on the dealer.
do you recommend to use it as dilevery bike or not ? and is it safe to use it in winter (cbs) ? or i should take the jet 14 200 becous of the abs ?
and of course Thank you for the great reviews and info and all your effort🙏
For delivery work I will always recomend a flat floor scooter, they are just better suited for long days running around with deliveryes. I would go for the jet14 also the abs is a big help in the city when you run with deliveryes and can get into some bad situations. Normal people are ok without abs but for couriers it's a big help.
@@RideWithAlex tanke you a lot sir 🙏
i am from jordan and i start watching your videos and i found a lot of great information 👍
but is't true that motorcycle is much economic than scooter spicely when it comes to full ?
and unfortunately iam searching for good scooter/motorcycle for a daly commut and dilevy job and i dont know what to choose 😅
which do you think is the best for my case espicely we have very bad roads (lots of unpaved streets and Pitfalls taller than)🛫⛰🛬🤣🤣😂😂
my frinds susuggested to me one of these :
sym st200 ,sr200, jt14
.
suzuki en 125 ,gn 125h,gixer 150 burgman125,acsses125,an125
.
honda unicorn 160, activa125
@@abedalmajeedmarei4595 like I've said, for city rideing and deliveries get a scooter, a small 125-200cc is all you need in the city.
We hope it will come to the phillipines
Haha, Sym-Ro should make a few wooden ramps and obstacles at this point and lay them for people to test ride over.
:)))) There are some pretty rough sections in the yard where you can go crazy.
We in Serbia are lucky, we have obstacles wherever you go. Every road is offroad. The perfect adventure :)
Hey Alex, I'm about to buy this tomorrow... I'm having a real hard time finding ways to upgrade the seat and rear shock. I did find a windshield, but I am just wondering if you can help me find the place that you can order upgrades for aftermarket parts on them? Surely there is somewhere that makes parts for SYM? How could I fit a better rear shock on it (more comfortable)?
I don't know of any where to buy upgrade parts for the NH-T
@@RideWithAlex Bummer, how would you custom fit a suspension to it? What would be the goals in getting an upgraded piece?
I really like my dream motorcycle..it is not available in my country yet, only SYM scooters .... I guess importers will get it ..
Hello , firstly thank your for your video. It was very helpful.
Personally I have a problem . I weight around 150kg and I am looking for a bike. I just want it for the city and stuff , but I don't like scooters so I am looking for something like nht series . In Greece I can't find a lot of used bikes of the nht series and none of 300cc. Prices for new are 3200(200c) and 3800(300cc). I think I need the 300cc one , but the price is too high, I am starting considering if Its good idea to buy a Benelli bn251. I can find a lot of them in decent price here in Greece around 2-2.3k . Better price , used but still it will be my first bike . What's your option ?
Should I go with a used 3-4 years old bn251 around 2.3k or a new nht 300cc with 3800k?
I haven't tried the Beneli yet. And about second hand nht 300 they just started selling a couple of months ago so you can't find them second hand.
Salut. Interesantă motocicleta (mai ales ca preț). Am văzut că există și NH-T 300. Se poate comanda modelul de 300? Mulțumesc.
Modelul de 300 inca nu a sosit in Romania, dar pentru detalii colegii te asteapta cu drag, poti sa treci oricand pe la showroom (luni-vineri 11-18) si poti discuta cu ei detaliile despre a comanda un 300.
@@RideWithAlex Mulțumesc pentru răspuns.
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. Sometimes less.
Die Sym sal sekerlik die goedkoopste wees om te onderhou, Ek kyk self na een, top spoed is maar 125kmph, teen 120kmph sit die revs teen 7000, bietjie hoog maar ek het al 250s gery maxed out teen 120 aircooled.
Vir die prys dink ek is dit nie horibaal nie, die fiets sal n goedkoop commuter maak wat die sak pas, maar sal sekerlik nooit n honda kwaliteit wees nie...
Did you get one ? And how does it ride on SA roads?
I have watched the video but I couldn't understand the answer to your question. So at the end, in your opinion, is it more an adventure or a fake bike? Thanks.
It's decent for adventure, with a 19" front wheel and light weight it can go places bigger bikes can't. Especially if you are new to off road riding
They just started to sell these in Slovakia for less than 3k €. Seems to be a good buy, does anyone know what is the comfortable cruising speed? I am also considering RE Himalayan, I do not think it will be much faster
Cruising speed for the 200 around 100-110km/h is comfortable in terms of engine stress
@@RideWithAlex not to bad. There is not much information about this bike online. My last question, how long is the service interval?
@@miro3463 I know, unfortunately we don't have one with registration because I would of loved to take it on a long road trip
@@RideWithAlex well, I guess it is up to me to buy one and share my experience :)
@@miro3463 people that have bought them really love them 😁
Mu siz is 1m95cm this bike is good for me ?
Should be ok.
Astept cu interes un review pe sosea la nht200 , sunt curios de top speed si ce viteza de croazieră poate să susțină
Dacă am ocazia voi filma sigur.
Eu detin un nh t de 125,maxim i-am dat 120-125 in drum drept,cam 130-135 in panta. La urcare prelungita nu exista probleme am facut transfagarasanul dus intors intr o zi
@@Le_Monke1 sa vezi asta de 200 chiar merita
eu am prins stoc 145.A trebuit sa ma las ca sa devina aerodinamica.Pana la 135 n are prb dupa e mai greu avand in vedere ca te bate vantul direct in fata
Hello again Alex, I'm in Kenya and don't have info on how much oil the bike takes. I put in 1 liter and it was good, but then a mechanic said they need 1.2 liters. When we did that, it really seems like it struggles on the top end to get enough fuel and power to push up the revs in 4th 5th 6th. Could you tell me how much oil you put in it when you service?
Check the glass on side of the engine, it has a minimum and a maximum, you must noy be over the maximum. The amount in the manual you have to put in is an approximation, you always check thr fill level on the side of the engine.
@@RideWithAlex Oh ok, 1 L was about 3/4 or more up , but when I put in 1.2L it pretty much brought it to the max line. It seems like with the extra oil, it may take time to adjust.... I'm only at 1000/1500 km break in. It is working harder and taking more throttle to climb into higher RPM, and am using a Shell Advanced yellow bottle oil
@@RideWithAlex Thank you!
I weigh 122kg. Well it carry me comfortably? I owned a 2016 Africa Twin for 5 years but don’t ride as much as before so want a smaller bike.
Might want to go for the 300cc model
@@RideWithAlex
Thanks for the reply Alex. I’ll see if I can find one here in Morocco. Ride safe man.
Hello how are you? My name is Kauê, I speak directly from Brazil and I have a SYM NH, I would like to know where I can find to buy this new luggage rack, I found it very cool.
Thank you, great video
this luggage rack is for the EU Euro5 models, i don't know where you could get it in Brazil.
@@RideWithAlex I searched ads on ebay and aliexpress to import this luggage rack, but I didn't find any ads. :( Sad, this new luggage rack was amazing!!
Salut Alex! Exista posibilitatea sa cobori saua pentru acest model?
Doar dacă îți faci ceva custom
Mersi frumos pentru raspuns
What engine capacity is sym nht 200
185cc
Hello Alex. Do you know how reliable is this bike long term (2-3-4 years). How does it handle off-road - soft enduro - forest road. Can it be tested near Sibiu? :) Thanks!
I think for test rides you can try in Bucharest but for reliability check out bucharestbiketraffic for his experience with it since he owns one.
Un proprietar aici🖐. Am 5700 km cu un NH-T 200. Până acum am avut probleme strict legate de calitate: șaua trosnește deja; un șurub de la placa care acoperă eșapamentul a căzut (era strâns, a căzut din cauza vibrațiilor cel mai probabil); reviziile se fac cam des și sunt puțin cam scumpe, la cât merg eu, mașina mă costă mai puțin; cutia de viteze e cam problematică, nu prea întra în treapta 1 stand pe loc, în mers întra (mare grijă, era să mă arunce peste ghidon odata, eu credeam ca e în N); peste denivelări dacă opresc motorul și merg din inerție, zdrăngane tare de tot numărul, cu motorul pornit nu se aude. Sincer, sunt relativ mulțumit, mă așteptam la mai mult, având în vedere reclama care i se face.
@@trainspotting6510 mă felicit că nu am avut bani atunci să o cumpăr, plus că sunt cam departe de Bucureșteni.
@@xizzard îți recomand Honda, Kawasaki, sh evident. Sunt net superioare. SYM merge dacă ai o firma Glovo sau un restaurant. Îți cumperi o flotă de scutere, tragi de ele pana crapă, le arunci și cumperi altele.
@@trainspotting6510 mulțumesc. Dar tot o chinezoaica am luat de la cfmoto. Într-un an zero probleme. Acum pe frig parcă nu-i place până se încălzește puțin...numai că nu prea se încălzește până ajung la destinație 😅
Hello everything is fine? Does Dafra operate in your country?
Nu, here we have SYM.
Hello I am tall, 193 cm, over 6 foot , can I ride this?
You can ride it, but at your height it might feel a bit small. Go to a dealer and sit on it and see how it fits you.
What is the max comfort speed?
About 100km/h
Anvelopele sunt tubeless?
Nu, sunt cu camera.
@@RideWithAlex Merci frumos!
not related to the subject of the video, but what kind of watch is that?🤔
LG G Watch, on of the first ever android wear smart watches, been using it for the better part of 5-6 years.
Can I get one in kenya.

What is the top speed on this bike?
Official top speed is 125 km/h
I think, asking the top speed of an adventure bike is inappropriate. ✌️😁
@@RideWithAlex that is fast enough...

185cc if I remember right
hi, im from Brazil, n i have this moto - its weak point - suspension, terrible - if u ride with another person, when u hit a hole, it will hit the end.
