Both kymco and sym used to be honda before they split up,,,and all the small bore Hondas (i.e. Cb175's ect ) were made by sym ,,,the vaunted Vespa brand uses Taiwanese made mills,,,with the quality wars going on in Taiwan the quality is over the top,,,l wouldn't hesitate to buy a sym or kymco,,,the only thing that would hold me back from buying a sym is parts acquisition

Now that Mike at Alliance is at the helm I wouldn't be concerned about that. Rich bought his SYM during the transition from Carter Brothers. Now that Mike is doing the Lance-SYM Tango I'm betting parts can be had. Mike even responds on Facebook, or at least his people do.

... PS: I just looked up the SYM HD on the net... Doggone if it doesn't look as "Italian" as spaghetti! 17" wheels, performance near that of modest 250's like mine... Looks better all the time! Bet Kat would like it too! Just her style! Not quite as modern as mine. But not a bad looker at all. >'Kat, wanting some spag & meataballas now

I sold Rich his SYM Citycom 300. It was my personal bike and it had just shy of 1000 miles before I had it carted to Alabama. Rich loved it and did an elaborate pictorial of it. It was way past the Carter Bros. era bikes and was a '13.
