I purchased my secondhand 2011 SYM gts 250i voyager back in early February 2017. Despite it only having a 12L fuel tank it gets very good fuel range. I started running it on 91 octane and with a combined city and highway usage and was getting around 340km-380km till the fuel light comes on but now i'm running it on 95 octane im seeing 380-420km till the fuel light comes on. It accelerates very well and will sit comfortably at 100kph and still has plenty of power to go faster. I have seen 155kph on the speedometer but the revs were into the red at 140kph so didn't want to push it more, but could tell it would do 160kph if tried. It has plenty of storage space and the instrument dial's are well laid out and easy to see. It is well balanced for a scooter that weighs 190kgs. The only downside is having to do a service every 3000kms.

I bought a 2008 SYN RV 250 a month and have already replaced the mirrors and very happy with the new ones..I bought it with 36 miles on it. ...The previous owner was 6 ft tall and needless to say he was not happy so he traded it in for a MC ..I only paid 2900. for it and I am very happy....Now my problem.. I have put over 700. miles in three weeks and I am not happy with the small windshield... Where can I buy a taller windshield ?...I live in Pennsylvania..USA ..Any help and I would be grateful.

ok i've had my 250i gts for a week now and i'm loving it.....i've had a honda dylan 125 before this bike and to compare it to it would be hard because the honda is a great bike....but with the honda not building a 250 which is what i wanted i went for a sym..... i looked at the yamaha city but was to exspensive, as my buget was limited. so over all the sym is what i wanted at size and cost.....having not known about the sym before i'm happy with it so far. the power is good and the size of the bike is ok too.....

i have had korean, japanese and italian scooters in the past and this is my seventh. i would say that this Sym GTS 250 is the best in terms of handling, power, economy, and reliability. i use it everyday for work, put 10,000 kms on it without any major maintenance work. recently decided to keep the gts and sell the tmax 500 instead.

The Sym GTS 250 is a fantastic machine for a 250cc, once owned a X9500 and this bike beats it hands down for comfort and handling. only gripe i have is the oil sign that lights up every 1000km telling you to change the oil,..1000km! too soon surely! and there is no tool to adjust the rear shocks, very bad thing for sym to be doing for a new bike. Other than those things, i wouldnt change it for any other bike.

The Sym GTS scooter is very good. I drive 43 kms daily. Power is terrific. Fuel consumption around 24 kms/liter, city driving. You can do self-maintenance if you have some basic tools in the house.

I bought the Sym 250GTSi to replace a Honda Deauville 650cc and I am not disappointed. My journeys are mainly commuting a short distance to work on urban roads and there is little difference between the two bikes. Acceleration is quick from the lights, easily leaving the cars back at the line.
The riding position is very comfortable, especially feet up, with a soft seat that has a raised back. The screen is nice and big, pushing the headwind over me although it would be good to have something to deflect the wind away from my hands to keep them warmer in the winter months.
As I am not riding too far, about 14km per day, the fuel consumption is not as impressive as others have reported but I still get a steady 62mpg which is better than my old 650cc bike.
My only real regret is that I didn't buy one of these years ago as they are so much fun. It seems far nippier and nimble than the motorbike and can get around cars far easier as well. It holds the road very well, although it's a good idea to avoid pot holes and sunken manholes in this part of the world, but that only makes the experience more enjoyable as leaning into corners is one of the best bits.
The lighting is excellent, and the spot lights really help when moving in commuting traffic, as they see you far quicker.
My only complaints are that the filler spout on the fuel tank has a tight bend that causes the fuel pumps to cut out, which in turn means I have to fill up very slowly and watch carefully for the fuel to reach the top of the spout which usually results in some petrol spilling out. The other annoying feature is a light on the dash which tells you that the seat is open, but only when it is nearly vertical which is a bit pointless really as I would imagine most people will be aware at that point that the seat is open? Finally, for a scoot this size a hand brake of some sort would be useful to assist with parking on inclines.
But don't let my complaints bother you, if you are thinking of buying one of these, think no longer and go and do it - it will take ages to remove the grin.

Very perfect! A 250cc scoot and single cylinder, such a light weight engine and have a boosting capabilities of horse power. Having a huge compartment, the looks.... And such touring capabilities... Having less vibration when you ride is a good part is touring.
