This is SYMs only proper motorcycle. A cheap, simple, no frills 125cc bike. Facebook: / cagerontwowheels Intro music is "Black Suit Zombie" by Phazer. Go check 'em out here: / gophazer
I was the owner of that bike (sold it now). Some small corrections about what Cager said. The side stand did NOT have a sensor to turn off the bike when you put first gear, but it did have a strong spring that made the side stand pop up with immense force as soon as you hardly touched the motorcycle (making it very easy to fall by touching it).(This was one of the things i changed). The back brake pedal is adjustable. i had it so high because if you put it lower, when you really want to brake, your feet would be all stretched and you couldn't apply any more force. The sun indicator... maybe it was to show you that you had your lights on? (Cant remember). Loved the video Cager. Thank you
SYM remaining bad quality (shit), doesn't matter what they get extra. I bought two SYM bikes & both had lot's of trouble & to keep it running were a lot of money. Up to 25000km the cost for repairs was around $ 5000 that only repairs not services included. Stay away from them they will empty your wallet very soon.
I own a Sym Wolf SB125N and to be honest it's the best looking 125 to date, Many people ask "what bike is that and what cc is it" When I tell them it's a 125cc they say "it looks like a 400cc" that makes me proud, When I bought the bike 6 months ago it wasn't looking it's best and top speed was a little poor, so I changed the exhaust for an aftermarket sports exhaust and changes the carburetor from a 125 to a 250, resprayed the engine black, as it should be, and added a tail tidy which give the bike a much better view all round, Top speed now is 86 MPH, I'm thinking about going lower teeth on the back sprocket from a 41 to a 39 which should, in theory, give me more top end, I'm hoping to his 90 MPH maybe a little more.
A really nice test as always. Thanks. I really liked it but please test the best one of them: Sym Wolf Sb250Ni.Fuel injection, Both disc brakes,250cc, 25ps, Max:168kmh, 14Lt Tank and 1LT/41kms means 574kms range. Please test Sym Wolf 250. Take care...
SYM also offers the "Wolf Classic" in the US (and maybe world-wide) and it's a more "classic standard" style motorcycle. I've sat on that and it's rather small for my 6 foot height. I haven't seen this model before, so this was interesting!
Seems like a decent bike for a beginner or a small framed person. I don't know if I could deal with the low hp, though. I have two bikes: a 2012 Yamaha YFZ-R1 and a 2013 Yamaha FJR1300.
My girlfriend wants a 125 and it'll be her first bike and she has a tight budget, this one seems like the best choice in terms of price, quality and aesthetics
Had one for 2years and did about 12000km. Sold it, this spring. For begginers is a good bike. But with the stock tires with rain is kind of unstable. I had two crashes with it at low speed thanks to the tires... For highways is boring and a little uncomfortable because you have to be lean down to get to 120km/h. That was what happen to me..
cager!!! can you do a test ride of kymco quannon 125? i have it but i don't have my 125 license yet so i dont know sh*t about it :p btw LOVE your videos man :D
I have the 150cc version ... few differences here and there , but the same look , i still dont get into neutral easily and yes I dont know what the "sun" is ... and mine has a fuel indicator thingy
Cager, if you want to test ride another cheap 125 naked bike I recommend you the kymco quannon 125 naked. It's quite similar to this one but it has some good features that the sym doesn't have such as rear disk brake, side stand sensor etc etc etc...
All standard corrosion free materials will also corrode near the sea ;) It's actually quite standard for contracters to use normal corrosion free materials for (for example) railings withouth realising it'll just corrode anyways haha
I like the look of the SYM Wolf Classic. You should check out one of those as well when you get a chance! Old style like a Honda CB125. :) I have not yet seen this 'new' style of SYM.. thanks for filming once again!
I really enjoy my SYM. (Mine is a scooter) I would buy a Wolf if I had the $$$. SYM skimps on features that would make it safer. Any Idea on where to get parts? Cager, are you willing to test a Wolf Classic. I love them?
Hey cager! Great video, I've been thinking getting one soon! I know there are better 125s on the market but really they are all 125s. This one is a cheap, great looking 125 with decent power. Also can somebody give me a link for his jacket? Looks really sick!
I'd take a Daelim Roadwin over this one. No fancy digital dash, but it has a 140 rear tyre, fuel injection, disc brake at the rear, a proper naked position, looks awesome, and costs about the same. It also has a more powerfull engine, at 13,5cv i think. An the R version adds digital dash, liquid cooling, and a 14.9cv engine. And it can do 2.8l/100, they say.
It depends from the country, here in Belgium they sell the SYM with fuel injection and a rear disc brake, but the power is still the same, more power like 14-15hp would be better. I had this bike for about 1 year, I even made a 1200km trip on it, and had a consumption of max 2,5l/100. But the price was more expensive I think, it is 2999€ new but I bought it as second hand. The model name with fuel injection is 125 sbi :)
Thomas vegeta Good to know, i dont think it sells here in Spain, anyway, it still is a little pricey, the Roadwin R is 3400 with one year insurance and normally you can get discounts. But expending that much money in a 125 is only reasonable if you plan to keep it for long, wich is not my case because i just want it to see if i like riding or not, if i like it, i'll be getting a proper license in less than a year hehe.
You are right, and so did I, I was able to ride 125cc bikes due to my car licence so I bought one and I liked it, way too much :D and so I did my motorcycle licence and sold the 125 a few month after I got the licence. And still now I wouldn't pay too much for a motorcycle
Thomas vegeta Hey man, I'm also in Belgium, and I'm on the verge of buying this, as some moron ran into my other bike and totaled it. Can you tell me about its reliability or if there's anything not so good on it?

Loved the video Cager. Thank you
Why did you sell it ?
Iboo30 Because i bought a Suzuki SV650s and couldn't afford to keep them both
Gl Mig Nice choice ... yeah, totally understandable ... I thought you got bored or something :)
+Gl Mig wots the top speed n comfortable crusing speed breh
From what I remember it's 106 kmh. Comfortable riding speed it's probably something like 80 kmh
I'm 15 and have this bike, it's amazing. Never has had any problems and is pretty quick. I love it
Sym Wolf costs 3600 Euro in the Netherlands. The new model is liquid cooled, fuel injected and has disc brakes at the back as well.

possible oil starvation and seizing to top end as you put much larger carb on ? just a thought rossi

I was about to but the bike today i head it has some engine issues in the long run. Is this true?

Obrigadooo Cager!!
Thank You Cager!
THANK YOU for this review Cager. JUST THANK YOU
Seems like a decent bike for a beginner or a small framed person. I don't know if I could deal with the low hp, though. I have two bikes: a 2012 Yamaha YFZ-R1 and a 2013 Yamaha FJR1300.
Geez, with those kind of bikes in my garage, I wouldn´t even go near a 125 xD
My girlfriend wants a 125 and it'll be her first bike and she has a tight budget, this one seems like the best choice in terms of price, quality and aesthetics
Did you end up getting this bike in the end?
Anyone know of any good budget 125cc's for a first time rider? Finding it hard to look for suitable bikes not over £1k.
Had one for 2years and did about 12000km. Sold it, this spring.
For begginers is a good bike. But with the stock tires with rain is kind of unstable. I had two crashes with it at low speed thanks to the tires...
For highways is boring and a little uncomfortable because you have to be lean down to get to 120km/h. That was what happen to me..
maiovisky112 Was it reliable?
Hi do u know how to change display to mph instead of kph
cager!!! can you do a test ride of kymco quannon 125? i have it but i don't have my 125 license yet so i dont know sh*t about it :p btw LOVE your videos man :D
hi there should I buy this a sym fiddle 2 or a Suzuki Gixxer 150 SF
thanks for a good video😀
they're selling sym wolf 200 in Turkiye, and its quite popular, also we have bajaj pulsar another two hundred
I have the 150cc version ... few differences here and there , but the same look , i still dont get into neutral easily and yes I dont know what the "sun" is ... and mine has a fuel indicator thingy
I don't know if I'm a fan of the red-on-gray tacho colour theme. It seems quite difficult to see in daylight.
Ooooh, the Grom! I thought it was a different bike and got kind of excited. I totally forgot that it's got a different name outside the USA.
No the Grom is Honda MSX. this is SYM not honda
Cager, if you want to test ride another cheap 125 naked bike I recommend you the kymco quannon 125 naked. It's quite similar to this one but it has some good features that the sym doesn't have such as rear disk brake, side stand sensor etc etc etc...
What? It is really Sym wolf 125? In South Korea Sym wolf is naked not R model.
How do u change speedo from kph to mph
possibility of testing the 250cc version of the wolf??? :) :) :)

It's actually quite standard for contracters to use normal corrosion free materials for (for example) railings withouth realising it'll just corrode anyways haha

Could it be safe to go on the highway with this thing? (or even another 125cc), because this goes well enough :D
Do you need a motorcycle lisence for that in Portugal or is car lisence enough?
Mathias Brogaard a car license is enough to ride 125 cc motorcycles but only when you turn 25 years old.
I just bought the 250 version. It's called a SYM fighter t2 250i
Would you ever be able to do a review of the Wolf Classic 150 from SYM?
you should test the Sym Wolf T2 (250i-N engine, water-cooled)
im getting this bike soon its very nice
Exactly , everything is accurate as my bike .
I really enjoy my SYM. (Mine is a scooter) I would buy a Wolf if I had the $$$. SYM skimps on features that would make it safer. Any Idea on where to get parts? Cager, are you willing to test a Wolf Classic. I love them?
Review the SYM XS-125K its another SYM motorcycle same engine as the Wolf 125 i think. PS The wolf also comes in 250cc
Could you do a review of the Keeway RKV 125? Thanks
i wondered if you would test ride one of those one day...i owned the 150cc one
LoL @ 4:00 looking while trying to not make it so obvious. You should've done a #Leadpin parody there.
the only things that put me of these is that it only has 10 hp (instead of the 15) and i can not find an aftermarket exhaust for it
its 11 hp
oh my bad but still i'd rather have 15
bom video, boa sorte para o canal!!
Hey cager! Great video, I've been thinking getting one soon! I know there are better 125s on the market but really they are all 125s. This one is a cheap, great looking 125 with decent power.

good bike!
Plz Cager....do a review of Sym Wolf 250.

Thomas vegeta Hehe cool, bro, that's the route i'm probably following. I think i'll buy a second hand GS500 when i get the A2 license.
Thomas vegeta Hey man, I'm also in Belgium, and I'm on the verge of buying this, as some moron ran into my other bike and totaled it. Can you tell me about its reliability or if there's anything not so good on it?
what about yamaha mt-125 ?
Could you please test a Suzuki GW250? :)
Nice review, as always. Btw can you test 'the best 125 ever?' - Honda Grom? ;)
Nice vidéo !
where are you ?
Pls test MT 125!!!!!
cager wots top speed n comfortable cruising speed breh
sym also make a YBR ish bike which £1500
Not a bad looking bike at all for a city commuter. Still not sure I'd trust stuff from any east-Asian country except Japan..
Would have gotten alot of views if it was the 250
Oleaste do yamaha mt125 :)
4m 02 s....yum!!
ありがとうございます^_^
SYM T1 wolf 125 cc BAD quality, have one but it's no good at all. don't buy if you don't like big bills.
You write that on every SIM related video, some funny lies you talking about.
Seriously? It's a bicycle. CB1000R? Suzuki GSR750?
and you're not easily impressed !
2nd :p
First😊
