Cruisym traversing the Bicaz Gorge
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 чер 2023
- As a work assignment I had to take a Cruisym to one of our dealers in Iasi, but why take the shortest route there when we can go the long way round through the Bicaz gorge and traverse some beautiful scenery in the southern Carpathian mountains.

Alex, this is the most beautiful, the highest quality, the easiest to watch, the best video with this scooter... who knows how many scooters have been sold in the world because of you, for this kind of advertisement the company should give you a big, big bonus! I'm watching it for the fourth time and I'm enjoying it again.
Thank you, maybe one day SYM Global will notice me and reach out but also I like the independence to say what ever I want to say.
Always love your enthusiasm, (10 months after the ride). Best, Rola (Oregon / USA).
Thank you very much!
E o reala placere sa iti urmaresc videoclipurile, cu cat sunt mai lungi cu atat mai bune! Datorita tie am inceput si eu sa calatoresc pe doua roti!
Ma bucur sa aud asta, asfalt uscat si destinatii cat mai interesante 😁
Hello Alex, cool video, as always! I discovered your channel only recently and I wanted to say that it's a real pleasure to watch your videos. I'm currently looking into buying my first two wheel motorized vehicle and the info I get from your channel is really helpful into making my decision easier. I wish you all the best and keep up the good work!
Thank you. I would recommend get a scooter first for the daily and then a bike for the weekend. That's how i did it.
This video was pure joy.
I will rent a Cruisym 300 this week when I travel to Greece. I'm excited to give it a try.
Awsome 😁
bravo Alex,ride safe si la cat mai multe video`uri !
Mersi :D
I am 73 and have recently got back on two wheels after a long break and have bought a Jpymax 300Z. I quite agree with you that maxi scooters are ideal for older riders who aren't ready to stop riding. Great video as usual.
Thank you! And glad you are still on two wheels! 😁
Alex felicitări pentru video. Am testat la Iași scuterul asta și ne am și văzut acolo. Mi a plăcut asa mult încât mi am comandat și eu unul ! 😊
Super :D:D:D:D Sa il stapanesti sanatos
Thank you Alex again brings back memories of my sym joymax 300 I had great scooters
Un scuter absolut superb pentru mers la drum lung, l-am testat cand ati fost la Madras in Iasi, mult succes in continuare ✌
Multumesc! :D
You have previously proved that you don’t need power and speed for epic adventures but now you have also shown that the ability to travel at the same speed as the highway traffic makes for a much more enjoyable experience. The low CofG is key to the effortless chuck ability I imagine.
Yea, bikes that have a low center of gravity are always easy to hold upright and maneuver at low speeds because any bike can go down the road at 50+km/h no problem.
One of the reasons why I still follow your videos is that they are easy to watch, and the camera wanders to the left and right minimum and I get the least headache watching your videos.😁😁🍻🍻
Thank you, i try to keep my head still as much as possible :)))
@@RideWithAlex Everything so far has been more or less excellent. The second time I watch this video, I am still under the impression of the scooter...
I just added the Bicaz Gorge on my motorcycle bucket list... greetings from neighbouring Serbia
It's a route less known outside of Romania but very beautiful and a perfect motorcycle ride.
Really considering a Joymax Z+... I know is almost the same as this Cruisym Alpha.
I'm glad you had a good time on it, and it gave you no issues. Makes me confident that a Sym would be a good purchase for medium trips like this one. Thanks for sharing, man.
My pleasure! :D
The scooter was thinking about Alex and said to its self: "It’s time to cruiseHim…….😘✌️Nice ride. I think it’s a cool scoot. ✌️🇺🇸🇷🇴 🤟🏻
:))) Good one, thank you :D
I just started watching the video and I will say right now, I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOR A YEAR AND MORE. Finally criusym on a little more serious ride. ☺☺Lets` gooo....
When you don't own it you wait for any chance you get, but it didn't disappoint 😁
@@RideWithAlex Soooo...Alex you beautiful man, thank you for an awesome, awesome video...I hope you are well, recovered from THAT event, and I'm sure that beautiful girl can see you from above and is happy that you enjoy what she has supported you in...🙏🙏❤❤👌👌🍻🍻
@@rilson80 thank you very much, yes I doing pretty good, enjoying the summer and road trips 😁😁😁🙏
@@RideWithAlex 👍👍
Great and really eyes-opening video!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
weerom een fantastische video Alex!
Thank you! :D
Man! My Talking Scooter man! Scooter Power to the world!
Addicted to your videos!!!
😁
Great video - and your English is exceptional. Well done.
Thank you! 😁
Hi Alex, thank you very much for your deep reviews! I found this channel one of the most comprehensive for scooters availabe in European market. We are missing a lot here main Taiwanese competitor, Kymco. Can you please show us latest Xciting 400? AK 550? And let us know what you think about them? Regards from Poland ✌
Unfortunately i don't have any contacts at our local kymco dealer and can't get my hands on units to ride and test.
Foarte bun clip :) Traseul este foarte frumos. Pacat de calitatea asfaltului dintre Gheorgheni si Lacu Rosu. Am trecut recent prin Cheile Bicazului cu deosebirea ca, in loc de traversarea prin Valea Prahovei, am ales Lepsa. Cruisym, clar este un scuter foarte capabil (am vazut filmari/postari si cu ture prin Europa). Dupa ce am luat permisul am fost intre moto si un maxiscuter de 300/350cc. Desi mi-am ales o motocicleta pt. moment (un NC750X cu transmisie manuala), Cruisym 300 mi-a lasat si mie o impresie buna la ridetest, chiar daca m-am invartit numai cateva minute cu el prin curte. Cred ca este foarte util pentru cineva care are nevoie la naveta zilnica, cumparaturi (mai ales si cu un topcase), dar sa-l utilizeze si la iesirile de week-end. Foarte dragut din partea celor de la SYM care m-au lasat la ridetest, desi aveam permisul de numai o saptamana.
Cum zic si un video in afara de comfort nu exceleaza la nimic dar face foarte multe foarte bine. Un all rounder in adevaratul sens al cuvantului, se descurca bine la toate si poti sa faci cam orice vrei cu el, nu te limiteaza.
some interesting roads over there dude. Thanks for the road trip viewing :)
My pleasure, they really are very interesting 😁
Good evening Alex from Greece, nice video, sum cruisym is beautiful, I own a sym symphony st200i '22 when I got it I had my eye on cruisym and tl 508 but they weren't available... how's it going on the road?? have you driven the tl508?? thanks Aristotle
The TL is nuch nore sporty and powerful compared to the cruisym but i don't thing it's as comfortable.
Superbe peisajele. Am in plan o plimbare prin Cheile Bicaz, se apropie momentul....
SYMPHONY ST200 de la Cluj.
Merge fara probleme, benzina sa fie 😁
Great post Alex., and a good review of the Sym. Getting paid for something that you'd do for free sounds like a good gig to me.
It is a nice gig 😁😁
Thanks for sharing your "joie de vivre"
My pleasure! :D
Great video! Nice trip, very good advises! Can you share Pic or links for camera and mic set up. Very good voice hearing. Thank you!
I will try to do a video on my setup.
Hi Alex, amazing job you are doing with the channel. Anyways, i own the cruisym 300 for over 3 months and after instaling GIVI rack and case i am getting steering wobble when trying to ride it withot hands? Only 2800km on the milage of the scooter. Any suggestions what it may be the issue?
Never heared o such an issue tbh, no ideea what to suggest :/
Lovely scooter 🛵
Awesome video! What did you ride back to Bucharest? Looks like the weather was pretty good, well almost!
Yes it was, got rained a bit on the way back but light rain. I rode the same Cruisym. After the event was over I had take it back.
I can see you trading Brutus and Donnie and getting a 300 cc cruisym. either that or an HD 300. either of the bikes I have mentioned as you know, have enough power to get you moving fast on a long trip and like you said yourself with a windscreen in the front and top box in the back and the handlebar auxiliary bar for your GPS and your complete. you're only other choice is the maxsym 508 but you said yourself that it is difficult to maneuver between vehicles in the city going to and from work or any other place in the city you have to go to. I did my first long trip, 70 km round-trip, on the HD 300 and I have to say I love it! Even with the traction control and the ABS the torque is there when you need it or you gotta do is crank back a little bit on the gas, and you've cleared all obstacles! Take care!
Hi Alex following you for a long time now and always excited for your new adventures, im currently thinking of buying a 300 350cc scooter, and im thinking between Zontes 350m and this Cruisym what is your opinion? Which whould you buy, your opinion means a lot to me, im 175cm tall and in Serbia the price difference is around 700euros, the cruisym is more expensive? Thank you in advance... Best regards! 😊
I would recommend you go see them both in person. It depends on what do you want to do with it. For trips I would go for the Cruisym but for city the M310 is better.
Hold the press a new travel video👏actually wouldn't mind a two part video 😅 thanks for taking the scenic route.👍
Glad you enjoyed it :D
Does the dashboard have auto dimming function or is this a camera thing like in 17:33 and in 28:06 ? I see that the brightness goes up.
It's a camera thing, the dashboard doesn't have auto dimming but it's ok at night, it's not too bright.
Great video 👍
Thank you!
Bv Alex! Oare cu hd300 te-ai baga sa faci la fel? Cine stie, poate urmatoarele clipuri. Inca putin si termin scoala moto 💪.
Momentan nu avem nici un hd300 inmatriculat de test ride, dar m-as baga ca e acelasi motor deci ar merge la fel de bine. 😁
I've watched several of your videos, Alex, and you've sold the Sym brand to me!
With that in mind, I visited a local Sym dealer this morning in North Staffordshire, about 60Km North of Birmingham, UK, to order, buy, or collect one.
I'm looking for a machine for touring around the UK, early next Spring - and I found one!
Or I thought that I had, because having a slight disability with one of my legs, I found a scoot with a flat floor, (wonderful), and it was so easy to put on the stand - I can't stand too long one my left leg, but what's this? sadly, only 200cc.
Very disappointing, I wonder why no flat floor/300cc - I shall continue to watch you, but not from the seat of a Sym - keep up the good work, you're doing a good job!
The Joyride 300 has a flat floor and the samr engine as the cruisym but I don't know if it's available in the UK.
Thank you, Alex, I will investigate!@@RideWithAlex
Alex,
when ridding at 120, 130kmph do you know what is the speed on the GPS? From the video it is not visible what is on the phone.
I am curios what is the difference between the real speed and the one indicated/
My Cruisym never reached this speed....yet.
About 10% is the difference. It's about the same with anything on two wheels made now from any manufacturer.
Am comandat HD300, fratiorul mai mic. Sper sa aibe aceleasi prestatii tinand cont de faptul ca-l voi folosi cam 70% Bucuresti 30% afara. Multumim ptr postari.🎉🎉 keep it up șefu'😅
Nu prea e frățior mai mic considerând ca are acelasi motor. La drum lung se va comporta la fel.
@@RideWithAlex ca dimensiuni ma refer. Hd300 e mai mult city-friemdly in timp ce cruisym-ul e touring-friendly.
@@catalingioacas452 la drum lung tot la fel de bine merge, doar poziția pe el e diferita.
How would you compare it with the Forza 350 in matters of comfort? Suspension and seat?
I rode the forza 2 up and the thibg wobbled and flexed like crazy at low speeds.
The cruisym is way more comfortable then the forza
Alex Excellent video, very good, congratulations, I have the same motorcycle. It is a very good motorcycle, could you give me the link where you bought the bar to put the cell phone in, I can't find it anywhere.
thank you

I buy it 1 month ago, and I make a trip in mountain road , 600km trip, it works perfectly fine , the only issue is seating! It’s so strong!! After 200km you need to rest, and at the end of trip I have little pain on my back🤷♂️ If you know any products for that case or if I can find all Seat to change please let me know 🙏
I don't have that problem with the seat, you either need to get used to it or search localy for someone that can modify your seat.
Where you buy phone holder and backrest for passenger ?
Backrest is OEM Sym part, and phonr holder from quadlockcase.net
the same trip but with the zontes 310m. what do you think that would be like?
Maybe a little bit faster but the cruisym is more comfortable.
What a breathtaking scenery out there! As always I appreciate your understanding of how a scooter is daily and casually used!! Thank you sir! 🙏👏👍
Glad you enjoyed it, yes the scenery of the southern Carpathians is something special and to see them from the saddle of a 2 wheeled vehicle is the cherry on top of the cake.
Bicaz Gorge is the beautiful place.
If you had a motorcycle you can use an auto blipper, if it is compatible with your brand of bike. But then again there is nothing like a scooter like an ST200, HD300 or a cruisym 300 and few others along the same line. I paid my HD off and I am waiting to pick it up today, tomorrow or at the latest Monday. What bike is your riding partner riding? Be safe.
I don't know we didn't stop to talk :))
@@RideWithAlex I am sitting on nails waiting to pick up my hd. My second toy will be a GK350😃
Well that was a brilliant watch what a cracking scooter that is i have an x max tech max 2023 but loved your commentary a new subscriber from the uk
Thank you! :D
Thank you
My pleasure 😁
Sincer, chiar nu știu de ce nu ți-ai luat Cruisym până acum😂 și ai preferat sa tii 2 motociclete. Eu m-am convins pe viață nu vreau nimic pe 2roti la care sa schimb viteze, mă distrage de la drum și nu îmi place...
Cruisym este perfect și de drum și de orice am avut 125cc un Jet X dar la drum întins îmi era cam frica, toți făceau manevre in spatele tău să te depășească și nu este prea plăcut. Dar aia e n, nu putea scuterul.
In schimb asta este ideal îmi e frica că dacă peste 10ani când o sa îl schimb, sa găsesc în continuare o oferta așa buna, fiabilitate, preț, consum, spatiu, ușurința cu care îl conduci și lista continuă 😂😂
Mulți Km plini de bucurii🎉🎉!!!
Este si o placere sa ai 1085cc si 100Nm de cuplu sub fund, dar nu stiu sigur daca ma va prinde pe veci placerea puterii si deja parca simt nevoie de ceva usor si micut cu care sa calatoresc :))
I live in the US . I'm 65 I bought 150cc I used to ride a scooter about 15 years ago. I went out today it was hard to keep in the road. And it scared me. What should I do? Thanks
What do you mean it was hard to keep in the road?
In one of videos of testing Cruisym in my Country,the rider complain about vibration whe driving above 100 km/h and someone in comments also complain about that.He think its because of the size of the windshield.Have you experienced similar issue?
Nothing like that, but maybe he experienced wind buffeting and not vibrations of the scooter. This depends on your height and that's why the windshield has 2 positions so you can fine tune it for your height.
Why is the HD 300 red at 8000 rpm and the cruise sim at 9000? Is your gps from google maps?
About the redline I don't know. In this video I used IGO Gps, available on the play store for android
Cruisym is one of the best 300cc scooter. Nice space for driver and passenger, lot space under the seat... Also, price vs quality is best part :)
I keep telling everyone that, for the money it keeps up with scooters costing 1-2000 euro more. And in terms of comfort it's on par with the old burgmans that were made for touring.
@@RideWithAlex yes, I know :)
I'm sales in SYM Serbia :)
@@slobodanknezevic Nice, I'm not in sale. I'm in a technical consultant and manage the spare parts and accessories.
@@RideWithAlex thats the answer to my question,how to someone can know a lot specific tehnical details about some scooter :)
Im learning a lot by watching your videos :)
@@slobodanknezevic odlično Slobo, daj neki popust za Cruism 😊
1. Cat a fost consumul mediu pe traseu?
2. Cum e protectia la vant?
3. Daca ar fi sa alegi doar motocicleta sau doar scuter care ar fi optiunea?
Multumesc!
Toate astea au foat spuse in video daca io urmărești complet.
@@RideWithAlex nu toata lumea vb engleza
@@danidany8535 translate, canalul meu se adreseaza publicului larg na nivel global, nu doar România. Si nici nu am timp sa fac traduceri, mai trebuue sa ma duc si la munca. Consumul a foat cam 3.7-3.8. Protecția la vânt e subiectiva dar mie mi se pare foarte buna iar de ales intre scuter si motocicleta sunt diferite si e de preferință personala. Eu detin si scuter si motocicleta.
@@RideWithAlex Scuterul e mai practic, ai spatiu de depozitare. Eu am mers pe asa ceva ocazional, ca test, si nu ma impac cu pozitia. Am aproape 1,90 si saua pi se pare prea joasa, iar picioarele ridicate, ma doare spatele. In plus pozitia ca pe scaun nu imi inspira siguranta, parca ma ia teama la viteza mare iar la viteze mici imi pare instabil.
Motocicleta e altceva, e trecera naturala de la bicicleta si poate mersul pe cal, o strangi intre picioare, nu stiu daca e doar o iluzie dar pare ca te agati si te lipsti de ea. Pe scuter parca mi-e frica sa nu cad de pe el, ai sprijin in fund, picioare si te agati cu mainile si cam atat. Scaun umblator.
@@danidany8535 e chestia de preferință și cu ce e esti obișnuit.
Do you mean 9pm so as bright as that oh wow!
Yes
Super! De 125cc sau 300cc?
De 300
Dintre cele trei modele din "clasa 300" de la Sym, adica Cruisym, HD300 si Joyride, care aigura cea mai buna protectie la vant la drum lung, presupunand ca HD 300 ar aveam montat parbrizul acela inalt?
HD300 cu parbriz inalt si Crusiym cu parbriz GIVI
Ok, multumesc. Sa inteleg ca parbrizul original de pe Cruisym se poate inlocui cu unul GIVI?@@RideWithAlex
@@aurelianflorescu2623 da, exista unul special pentru cruisym

Hello Alex,
Can you attach the link of shop of the phone holder .

Salutare, din martie am platit 1000€ avans, achizitie prin Paul Moto.. cruisymul ajunge undeva in 24.06..
Ma fierb astia la foc mic ✌️
Mai ai puțin 😁
@@RideWithAlex …prin programul rabla.✌️
@@patakigabriel7457 cat te-a ajuns cu rabla?
Well, After watching this detailed video, I admit that you have convinced me to buy a Cruisym scooter, and I actually contacted the agent in my area, and they told me that only the two thousand and twenty model is available, and its price is the same as the price of the new model, the seller says that there is no difference between them except Analog counter, what do you think, Alex?
I guess they should sell it with special discounted offer since its not the latest model.!!
the old euro 4 model also has halogen lights, the one I was on has LED lights. I would look for one with LED lights.
@@RideWithAlex The price for 2020 Model as around 5600 US Dollar, do you think its reasonable?
@@hmoosawi it's too much.
@@RideWithAlex Thank you , you are always great help
They are not the same. 2022 model have abs and traction control. Go for newer one. And the scooter is great! I did some tours around Croatia. It's almost perfect.
Ce soft folosesti la telefon pt gps?
Igo am avut a doua zi
What do you think..is it capable to achieve 150000km during the 3 years..50000 km per year??
I don't see why not.
@@RideWithAlex thanks bro..cool 👌
The goldilock zone of maxi scooters.. Not too big for the city but still can do touring with 100 km/h with ease. Still need decent roads to ride comfortably. Maybe this the one of the negatives of maxi scooters. Adv scooters are changing that. Perfect ride and video otherwise.
Tbh I've ridden the honda ADV350 and i would still take the cruisym.
O have 125cc modelo and I do touring. About 300 km.
Awesome!
Nice video but you better keep your hands on the bars...that is what you have learned is safe and but doing this you set a bad example...😊
