Honda PCX125 vs. Sym Joyride 125
From a riding point of view the Sym Joyride is the one to go for, it’s one of those scooters that just glides around corners. It’s very comfortable and has great weather protection too. Like the Honda, the Joyride also has a fuel injected liquid cooled engine, no idle-stop though and it’s a bit thirstier than the PCX. One significant disadvantage is the price, the days of Taiwanese scooters being cheaper than the Japanese and European rivals seems to be a thing of the past. The price may have risen but so have the levels of quality, finish and reliability. ‘Made in Taiwan’ is no longer a joke.
