Will I be welcomed at a Honda Dealership?
Decided to take little trip around Bucharest since I was free from work this Saturday. First stop was the Honda dealership. Let's see if they welcome me with open arms.

Interesting video but those roads in and around the industrial and showroom locations are absolutely bullshit. Keep up the good work Alex.👍
Starting to get my A2 licence and hopefully an AK soon after
Are we expecting a review for kymco Alex??
It's already on the channel, did it a year ago multiple videos, search my channel for AK 550
@RideWithAlex unbelievable... There is a video by you and i haven't see it... That's... strange... Thanks Alex!!
can you post a link to the windshield? i cant find a shop where it is in stock. thank you!
It's a GIVI D7065ST, we had it here in stock in Romania but search for something closer to wherever you live.
The tank is 15.2 liters, so you had aprox 50 more km to go. Let we say 660 km total.
I've seen a customer here with a picture at 699km on the dash on 1 tank, he rode even more economical then me.
Still nice content Alex. For example, I like the info about the brands and their position in the market. In 1988/89 I had a Honda MB 5. A 50 cc that drove 90 kph on clock. And a 4 speed transmission (left foot pedal and left hand clutch handle). Now I have a Sym Jet 14 50cc and in the first place my eyes are on the: Sym ADX 125. But for a while, also at: Honda Forza 125 Honda PCX 125. In the Netherlands, we are f****d with the following prices: Sym ADX 125 - € 4.750,- and sometimes even € 4.950,- Honda Forza 125 - € 6.999,- Honda PCX 125 - € 4.250,- As always: thanks Alexandru and looking forward…
goldwings are so hawtt
nu merita mai mult de 500 euro vechitura aia. gasesti la 2300 euro R850rt din 2005.
Au trecut 2 ani de cand a fost filmat clipul si vechitura inca merge si aduna km :))
@RideWithAlex nu e vb ca nu merge. Pur si simplu nu are valoare economica
@vrejoiu are valoare istorica, primul gs modern. Vezi pe piață ca acest 1100 poate ajunge foarte scump.
It’s a Honda Goldwing. It’s the best touring bike ever made. And it’s a Honda so the reliability is there.
My wish list bike. Been wanting one for years. Just just ride great and they’re so smooth.
What fuel cans did you order?
Aliexpress fuel cans nothing fancy
What cup holder do you have and brand?
Cup holder is from aliexpress
What's a good maxi scooter for a 182 cm person?
At that height you will fit on just about any maxiscooter, depends what you want to do with it and what you prefer.
2025 models just released on Honda's official site. Prepare to be thoroughly and I do mean THOROUGHLY disappointed. Today's date n time 2/4/25 4:26 est.
So from what I see now they were right at EICMA, the bike is the same you just get a book and a scale model as a 50th anniversary pack. 😕
Imi plac luminitele din bord, o poti impodobi de craciun! Cand dai o tura u 450mt?
E rosie in spiritul craciunului deci trebuie sa aibe si beculete =)). MT-ul nu stiu, sincer nu am vreo prea mare curiozitate momentan vedem cand se mai incalzeste.
And you didn’t notice rally version has one front disc
Gotta love those old project bikes! 😂
This damn thing still runs, past it's tech inspection last week with flying colors. Just pulled it out of storage after 8 months of sitting and took it 400m to the tech inspection place and it just passed 😂😂😂 (btw check your WhatsApp 😉)
The accent sounds like you're "kabayan." Is there a chance you're Filipino?
Nope, Romanian :)
Thanks sir for such a comprehensive reviews. currently I'm considering either Z350E or QJ350Fort, but your reviews shows me what i need for my bike. Thanks again sir
Glad you enjoy the videos!

We need more kymco reviews this summer 🙌🏼
Cand iesi la un test drive cu Zontes 501 g? ma gandesc sa cumpar una si sunt curios cum se comporta...
When they will make it, this was a prototype in 2023.
Very good review, well thought out!
Loving the clocks on the screen 👍
I have the fortza350cc of 21 and I work it full Delivery & trips! I have done the service on time, so far 185000 km, the engine has not made any problem until now and it continues to run as good as new …like a rocket!!👌💪
Great machine 💪
Where is the front camera, Alex?!
It's under the handle bar.
Eu astept unboxing/test cu ZONTES 368G , arata bestial.
Si eu astept sa vina sa il disectez :)
Personal am optat pt o Forza 125 (2024) cu smart top case și nu regret în niciun moment decizia. Pentru o persoană înaltă (198cm) singurele scutere de 125cc pe care să mă simt bine erau Forza sau XMax de la Yamaha. M-a convins parbrizul ajustabil electric și consumul foarte bun de la Honda. Aș fi curios să testezi modelele 2025 să ne zici cum ți se par opțiunile moderne de display/conectivitate care lipsesc la modelele anterioare.
@@CostashMTB , bună alegere, părerea mea : e peste Xmax, în caz că ești nevoit să urci pe autostradă prin hazar să zicem ( imaginăm ) care ar fi viteza constantă să rulezi ?
@nicuvadan4485 top speed aprox 125km/h în bord (115km/h gps) dar stai la 10k rpm și consumul crește f mult, spre 4l/100. O viteză relaxată de croazieră e undeva la 95-100km/h în GPS (105-110 în bord) la 9000 rpm cu consum undeva la 2.8/100 constant
@@CostashMTB multumesc
Salut Alex, pentru Daytona Virtus 125 se pot monta? sau fiindca e racit pe lichid nu merge?
Trebuie gasit modelul potrivit pentru al tau daca au.
WOW 128K Views In 18 Hours! Good Job Bro! Your Channel Is Growing...........Love ❤From Jamaica👍
I don't know where you got 128k views the video currently has 2k views but thank you :D

Get Em To Send You 2 Or 3 Variator Kits For Your Scooters. I Think You'll Get Through With Them, Because They Have No-one On UA-cam Giving Reviews Of Their Products & They Are Awesome.👍
@@johnal-kel9063 it will be a big day when a video of mine makes 100+ views in 24 hours if it will ever happen. Until then I'm more then happy with making my content the way I want it :D
Inca nu m-am hotarat intre PCX 125,N-max ,Medley sau ADX ?
Foarte vaga intrebarea, depinde ce faci cu el.
@@RideWithAlex De acord,in mare parte va fi folosit pentru munca -acasa-munca,40km pe zi total. Rar vor fi iesiri in afara Bucurestiului de 100-200 km. Ca si inaltime undeva la 1.80 si 83 kg. Buget cam 4000 euro.
@alexandrudalisevici326 adx-ul de departe cel mai bun pentru ieșirile din oraș, un drum de 200km abia ii faci încălzirea. Strict pt oraș, îți recomand răbdare să poți compara noile modele de N-max și PCX care vor veni prin aprilie-mai
Honda “opinion”: (BTW I still have an original ‘63 50cc Cub that my grandparents bought me when I was all of 15)?👍🏻& yes, I’ve owned a wonderfully smooth (in every imaginable way), Goldwing! But here’s Honda’s problem(s) as I see them: they make too many redundant bikes? They’ve had tons of incredible machines that they’ve failed to fully develop? BUT???, I think the biggest problem Honda has is, they’ve got people with all kinds of degrees designing motorcycles & scooters who do not ride them?! Not to mention the “bean counters” cutting costs? The End. Ride On! You’re doing great! Best, Rola (Oregon / USA).
Curently I think at least here in Europe due to Chinese competition they are waking up. We'll see how it goes, first discussion they seemed ok with the idea.
hi, what did you put on the throttle that interests me? lg
Throttle lock from aliexpress
@@RideWithAlex AHH OK Thanks HEHE
Hi Alex, interesting video, again. The speed in the overlay comes from the OBD interface or from the GPS signal of the phone? The deviation at high speed between bike and overlay is pretty high? Which speed is more realistic?
The road overlay has the GPS speed from the phone. In Europe it's mandatory bikes have a 10% deviation. Real speed is the one on the overlay the dash is off by 10%
I'd like to see the pcx if that's possible thanks.
It's first on my list
in romana nu ai? :))
Nu, nu am timp din păcate sa fac în 2 limbi.
Hey ("Ride With Alex") Have You ever considered Comparing A Honda Goldwing against a Kymco AK550?
bit of a huge price difference.
La Honda Nord este un scuter MIT negru, la intrare pe stânga, dupa un paravan de geam ... absolut superb, nu am mai întalnit un scuter atât de usor si măricel, l-am miscat cu un singur deget, nu ecposibil asa ceva, iar calitatea materialelor este mult, mult peste pcx
I have both PCX and FORZA, the 2016 PCX is silky smooth, FORZA is equally nice, I prefer FORZA, more confidence on the open road.
Hi Alex. Hope you and your family are well. My Honda review request would be a Honda Forza 350. Take care. Ray
No offence but what an ugly city... there must be nice parts somewhere... take a ride around the picturesque parts... ;)
Not really, most of the city looks like this, especially in this period.
It’s just like any European city. You would almost think that this ugliness everywhere is some sort of psychological warfare by the overlords… It’s almost as if they don’t want us to be energized by beauty some older cities still have…
Most I'd like to see is the new PCX DX 125 and the new Forza 125.
I have pcx 150,2016 model. Now he will get j. Costa variator and gpr exhaust. Maybe new or better bumpers. Planing to go to turkey in May and visit your shop back to Slovenia. Pcx it's really good. Service intervals are long and feeling is sporty/touring. I regularly going in mid city journeys with him in the winter. Thanks for Michelin city grip 2 video. Make my winter riding possible. Only thing missing from these model year is ABS.

'We are currently in Frasinetu de Jos' a sunat foarte funny 😁. great video, as always!!
You are excused for the title…purpose allowed for some good content!😂😊
Tbh I was actually curious, usually here youtubers especially one like myself that doesn't make content for the local market are not necessarily well regarded. We're kind of the weirdoes that don't want to speak Romanian and make our videos in English. Fortunately I found a bit of understanding and we'll see in March or April if I can get my hands on a few scooters.
Ăștia sunt Honda Nord, ăia care n-aveau angajați cu permis moto?😂Pe la Asko, ai fost?
La Asko nu am fost inca, pe mine ma intereseaza doar sa am cumva acces la flota de test.
@@RideWithAlex Știu că Asko avea ceva modele de test, la showroom la Crystal Plaza. Dacă or avea și modele din ultima generație de PCX, Forza, ADV, nu știu.
@1zanglang noul pcx nu o sa ajungă pana prin aprilie din ce mi-au spus, ii mai bat la cap 😂
Hi Alex, you should check your voltage regulator. I see your voltage is over 15v most of the time and you might overcharge your battery and it will die.
That voltage reading is from the OBD adapter, it shows about 1V higher then reality. I checked it with a multimeter.
Hi alex Can i ask you about the app or the item that are u using to show the battery voltage and the oil temp and the RPM and all the goodies? if you can for sure
The app on the phone is "Torque Pro" that logs the data, gets the data from a Bluetooth ELM327 Adapter conected to the meet OBD2 port of the scooter, then I take the log from the phone put it into a program called telemetry overlay and sincronize it the footage from the helmet camera.
