    the Sym Jet 50 is great quality and the build structure is great ,but problems with carbs have came to my interest because,the thing is that the float in the carb either way u move it it still doesnt let enuff petrol threw .

    The Sym Jet 50 is a good little runner, there is over 19,000 miles on the clock believe it or not, and its still running fantastically with minimal servicing. I couldnt believe that i beat some cars off the line aswell, all be it they were 90 odd in 0.8 matiz's but i still beat them. Very cheap to buy, tax and run but can sometimes be unreliable (what do you expect after 19,000 miles for a little 50cc 2-stroke?) & It's also quite nippy for a 50cc get around 35 - 40 on a flat.

    Had this Sym Jet 50 scooter bike for a week now and was realy unsure about buying it , had previously owned a MBK Ovetto and found that to be realy reliable , bought the sym because i wanted something newer its realy easy and smooth to ride and can take corners low, the engine has been tweaked ( not de-restricted ) and it still does 40mph, going to give it a couple of months now before i de-restrict it would recomend buying one to anyone!!

    This is a okay 1st time bike if you want to spend little money and are not going to use the bike very much I would highly recommend this bike. But if you are going for a recreational fun bike I would recommend a more expensive well known bike.
    My friend recently had a problem with his and it was constantly cutting out and would not reach above 20mph. He changed the piston rings and nothing happened so he changed the piston and still nothing. It turns out it just needed a new HT lead. Just in cas ...

    I have a Sym Jet and it has a little black tube/box thing just above the exhaust which collects fumes from a part on the exhaust pipe then goes into the bike somewhere and I dont no what it does and I need to remove it in order to fit my new technigas exhaust! Can anybody tell me what it does? or no if I can just take it off?

    I think the Sym Jet 50 is the best moped you get for those money. It always works and its totaly worth the money you spent on it.

    The Sym Jet 50 is a very nice bike to ride quite good on petrol too. Where do you find your Leo Vince exhuasts? I have looked online but cant find one anywhere .. or if any one else knows where I could get one?

    My Sym Jet 50 is restricted but I put a Technigas exhaust on it and it does about 43mph. Sounds good too.

    I got my Sym Jet 50 scooter for £425. I got it derestricted, did 40mph then put Leo Vinci ZX on, and it did 38mph restricted. I took the washer out of the pipe, and it is now doing 43mph on flat and 47mph down hill. Down hill got 5.7g. I have got a 70cc kit and 21mm carb to put in yet, so it should do about 60 with all that in. It's fast when hits 30.
