“Jet Sym 2011 Model”
Written on: 16/04/2012
So i brought my brand new sym bike, for my birthday and have tested it on private land, i am 16 in 9 days, doing my CBT in 11. From my "test" drive it was amazing, very comfortable, easy to manoeuvre and very fast, it has fantastic MPG and hardly costs anything to fill up. It looks extremely nice, especially for the "younger" rider, it looks very sporty and its speed just enforces this. Ive seen it called Jet 4, Jet 50 etc, so im just sticking with Jet Sym. There isn't much not to like about... (read more)

“Sym jet 4 50cc”
Written on: 05/08/2011 by Linda0188
Hi. I bought my 16 year old son a new Sym Jet 4 50cc bike in March and have had two bolts fall off it already. The first was on the exhaust and caused the exhaust to drag along the road. This was 3 months ago and the part still hasn't come from Sym to have it fixed. The second was last night. My lad's back brake failed to work on his way home. Luckily, he was stuck in traffic and was only doing 10mph. When his brake didn't work he pulled the front one on in a panic and ended up losing the... (read more)

Hi, i have had a sym jet for 8 months now and haven't had one problem with it.
i can't see how your boy would lose the back end when applying the front break?
skidding at 10mph is unlikely i suggest he was going faster more like 20-25mph.

Whether my son was doing 10mph or 70mph brakes should not fail on a new bike and the attitude from the Sym dealership is disgraceful. I work for a Peugeot dealership and we would insist a car was brought to the dealership immediately and repaired that day if there was a safety issue with a vehicle. My other son most definately will not be having a Sym bike.

A bolt came out of my exhaust too, after only having it for 3 or 4 months. Obviously a fault in their design?

10mph and he skidded along the road???? r u sure? he should be using both brakes anyway as the rear brake is only about 25% efficient of the front, doesn't add up if u ask me....

“Sym Jet Euro X 50 Scooter”
Written on: 08/07/2011 by Dungbug (6 reviews written)
I was looking for a cheap & reliable scoot to use for getting to work & back, I had owned a Gilera before & was not impressed with it's unreliable behaviour! I looked at alternative machines which were of Chinese & Taiwanese origin. I was put off by the build quality, well lack of, with the Chinese built machines so settled for a 2004 Sym Jet Euro X 50. The difference between the Gilera and the Sym was apparent on the first wet morning I needed to go to work, the Sym fired up first time as... (read more)

i got one sym jet 50 and the aftermaket exhaust was cracked, the more i used it the more it opend up, i was considering buying another exhaust but instead got a new bike. Another sym jet 50. i think the bike is superb for saving money and gettin you from A2B the reason i never changed the exhaust and got a new one was because i'm actually renting the bike and the guy who rent it just swapped them over, i am gonna derestrict it today by taking the washer out the exhaust, see how much faster...

Written on: 11/05/2009 by cfreeman91 (2 reviews written)
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.

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...

the black box above the exhaust just collects a small amount of exhaust gas and sends it back to the carb, it leads to the pipe that goes in the front of your airbox. if you take it off it wont do anything but i put a little k&n filter on the end to stop water and other stuff getting in.

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. (read more)
