Loud pipes save lives, fact!!!

 

My TRX, it doesn't matter where I am coming from, you hear me!!!! Couple of extra revs while filtering gets people off their phones very quickly. I even slow down, right by their window, and rev a bit more if I see they are trying to have a conversation on said phone..............

Glad I'm not the only one....

My Nephew rides MX in Cape Town and he is graduating from a KX85 to a YZ125.  I found him an ex-team bike here in Pretoria and I collected it last night.  Couldn't resist taking it for a little blast up the road.

 

And scared myself shitless.  I don't know what happened between when I was a kid blasting my KDX200 flat out down a dirt road in the dark in 1988 and going up a tar road last night, but I got into third, turned it around and putted back to the garage and parked it.

 

That thing is fearsome.

I used to have a YZ125.  That bike brought me so much joy and happiness along with plenty of long lasting physical pain :ph34r:

Still one of my all time favourite bikes.  :clap:

A.G.E ...... when you were younger you were more fearless ?

So I can now give a not so comprehensive review on the SYM300 scooter...  :ph34r:

 

This review is taking a long time to come out.  Expecting a masterpiece in automotive journalism.

Ha-Ha - funny you mention that - I went for a whole bunch of blood tests at the beginning of the year, because it's the responsible thing over 45 blah blah blah.....

 

And one of the things they tested was my Testosterone level. Not pretty

Its very good... 

 

i am trying to think whats not good on it and I can only think of two things: 

 

1. Seat Height - I am used to being higher up and seeing over the cars

2. urgency - It gets out the hole fine but roll on urgency just isnt there. 

 

Otherwise its pretty awesome, great brakes, good go, decent lights.
