    We enjoyed our time with the scooter and it certainly is an easy runabout compared to my Yam Xj 900!
    I would have one at home just for a trip out at weekends but what an English winter would do to this machine I hate to think.
    It was a good introduction to scooters for me after 40 years on a bike.

    Oil change is most important, every 2k (yes, do it yourself, it takes 10 minutes) and it will hold for a long time. this is my 3rd and last JR 200. I will move to the hyosung MS3 250cc which has 2 disc brakes in front 2 year warranty and closes at 150km.Overall I think quality junk and she be sold after 2 full years. I'm not talking about putting 15km everyday I'm talking about 40km everyday.

    Great overall general purpose scooter. Storage, excellent handling,starts and idles better than the 125 I owned before the 180. Performance is much better for Duel carrigeways and riding 2 up. Good size fuel tank. Good overal fuel economy. Getting around 80 mpg on shortish runs even when rode fairly hard.

    Good. Protection, handling, reliability, possibilty of transporting bigger things in the foot-rest (a chest of beer e.g.), fuel consumption city 3,5L, outer city 3L.
    3years 18000 kilometers no damages, only needed 1 new tire.

    This is a very practical scooter to avoid traffic and to have a trip on weekend. Is comfortable for two people too.

    The Sym Joyride is very very VERY easy to ride. comfortable, the fact that has frond and rear disk brakes makes it more efficient when you want to stop. large space under the seat . the floor gives you the ability to curry something else with you. very easy to handle in the city... and on the highway if you travel for up to 100 km/hr is quite good
    yes! I am happy with it! It was what I've been looking for...

    I rode on a variety of makes in the past. I have to say that the Sym Joyride is indeed a joy to ride. Ride comfort for rider and pillion is excellent. The seats are wide. The pillion gets to see the road ahead. A good run-around scooter.

    Since getting into scooters only a few months ago and buying a second-hand Peugeot Speedfight I quickly realised that I enjoy it so much that I have been looking at upgrading to a bigger scooter and doing some touring.

    I am in Australia and the Sym Joyride 180 is re-badged here as the Bolwell LeGrande 200 (not sure why 200 as it is only 171cc!).

    I had the fortune to hire a Bolwell LeGrande 200 for a day when I was holidaying in Port Douglas in far north Queensland (tropical paradise!) rec ...
