  • In this video I take out for a quick first ride and give my impression on the Honda ADV350. Unfortunately the ride was cut short due to a rain storm rolling in but it did give a quick taste of what this machine is capable of.

    The X-max 300 has the motorcycle style front fork as well. They dont have as much travel as the ADV 350, but they are legit.

    Will you be doing a sym adx 125 road test soon? They seem to be in the showrooms but not seen any reports in English. If you do try and find some bumpy roads and report how it handles them 🙂

      We haven't gotten one in the showroom yet. Probably the first video will be in the yard where I work. If I get my hands on a registered one then I'll take it out on the open road.

    Hi Alex, thanks for your content. I have seen in past your video about the Sym Cruissym 300 Scooter regading touring (Cruisym traversing the Bicaz Gorge). Which Scooter would do you recomend more regading touring, Honda ADV 350 or Sym Cruissym 300? Maybe you can discribe why?
    The acceleration is probably better at the Honda right? All the best for you, stay healthy! Best regard from Germany

    • @RideWithAlex
      @RideWithAlex  Před 5 měsíci +2

      Tbh considering the price difference I would go for the Cruisym. The suspension doesn't feel better on the Honda, the acceleration is marginally better on the Honda, weather protection and comfort is better on the Cruisym. Here there's a 2500 euro difference between them so the Cruisym wins here. Depends where you live what's the price difference between them.

    Very cool. 🤙 If it was loaded with some gear, the extra weight might have made the suspension feel a little softer off road. I thought there was another company that made an off road scooter. My Yamaha Zuma 125 had some off road capabilities. ✌️🇺🇸 🇷🇴 ✌️

    • @RideWithAlex
      @RideWithAlex  Před rokem +1

      Yea, maybe with some weight. It was weird because it felt like it was taking it just fine, but it was a little bit more bouncy then I'm used to from adv bikes.

    Great showcase!
    how would you rate this for long travel? Does it escape the "overkill for a scooter, too unprepared for a touring bike" zone?
    Tho BTW you're closing the helmet for better sound? your voice is way better and easier to understand with it open tho!

    • @RideWithAlex
      @RideWithAlex  Před rokem +5

      It's good for touring, but there are much better touring options with better wind protection in the maxi scooter world.
      I know my voice is clearer with the visor open but at over 50 km/h the wind noise is too much if i keep it open. New helmet on the way :D

      @Abd121 Před rokem +1

      @@RideWithAlex I see thanks for the reply, I think what I'm trying to think about is the same idea of what you did with your Syphony, getting an urban scoot that can turn around and take trips when needed. I would imagine things like adv750 or Burgman kinda take away too much from the daily urban use part due to their size and lower efficiency? (and also being pricier than a full touring motorcycle sometimes!)

      @@Abd121 if you want something mixed then this is a good option, but if you don't plan on taking it off road I would save some money and get the regular Forza 350

      ​@@RideWithAlex Forza 350 doesn't exist here but Forza 250 does.
      the ADV350 (topbox edition) did just arrive and it looks like it costs ~50% more than a Forza 250. (9800euro vs 6700euro)
      I don't see any real coverage on Forza 250 so I have no idea how good it is tho.

      Basically Forza 350 or Cruisym Forza's supension is apparently very bad (if you can get one under you that would be great...)
      ADV is worthly upgrade from Forza just because of suspension. But is not off road bike. The whole concept of dual sports bike is fishy...
      So is ADV 350 worth the price difference compared to Cruisym ?

It's a no brainer, if you want to keep it on the tarmac the cruisym wins hands down.
