Hi and thx for taking the time to make this video, i have now bought the maxsym 400i abs and looking at your video its going to be very similar to maintain . I must say i am very impressed with it so far. Ride safe and stay well my friend! cheers Paul
Hello my friend! Today I've changed the belt and I put rollers Dr Pulley 25x17 15 grs Waw it puts à kick ass !!! No More vibrations between 3000 and 4000 rounds per minute And 0-50 km/h on 3 seconds I'm very happy with it! I changed the air filter too and the rear brake...
Max still rocking, thanks! I tried with a syringe, but it takes forever. Also my system takes a long time, but it requires very little effort. It works for me... Cheers!
Hallo. Een tip voor de volgende olie wisseling van het distributiesysteem.ik gebruik daar een 100ml injectiespuit voor. Werkt prima voor deze dikke olie. Kun je ook goed bijhouden hoeveel er in gaat. Groeten Hans.
thanks for you videos, i don't miss any of them, and i'm very happy with my maxsym 600... But you forgot to clean the metal filter, no ? a last thing, the manual of the scooter talks about a 5w-40w api sl oil specifications...thanks again
Of all the good things you showed us you forgot something which I believe is also very important, Keep you bike clean and wash it down once in a while.
I am interested in buying one of these Sym Mxsym 600i abs scooters. My question is regarding Top boxes and pannier choices available for this spesific scooter..
Hi Francesco, great idee , the information about refilling or changing radiator coolant. Following the service manual,i also think its a bit to complicated. I think my maxsym never had a coolant change,,it has around 8000 km now,and is 3 years old (most motordealers,never do it ,as i read frequently) and the level is low,so i need to refill it Searching the internet,they warn about the risk of mixing different cooling liquides. I don't know what to think about? The SYM BRAMAX radiator coolant,(recomended)wich i think is still in my maxsym, I don't think its available,anyway ,i can not find it . What coolant do you use? Maybe you can you give me some advice ? Nice video again,and i learned a lot off things looking at all your other video's! Thanks!
Hi Peter! My thinking is that as long as the cooling liquids are in specs for Max it does not really matter. Same for engine and trasmission oil. Max is a simple machine, not a porche... Have done just less than 25000 kms, not a single issue! Cheers!
you do the valve adjusting yourself? As it is SOHC with locknut it should be easy to do but is it wel accessible? My choice for a honda CBX 500 fell off because of this job ( you need to remove all the electrics on top of the cilinder head.
Hi. I didn't need to adjust the valves yet... The cylinder head is not easy to access. For that kind of ops I would probably ask an expert. Too risky to mess up, and it needs instruments I don't have. Cheers!
Can I ask you about the drive belt? All belts I can find for sale are marked for 2011-2015 models. Are they ok for 2016? or they are different belts for newer models?
No idea what good that dr pulley does. I have a 2019 maxsym 600i. No vibration once or ever at any rpms.. they fixed that issue at 2018. Plus, dr pulley gets you faster to 100 km/h. But you lose top speed and you lose the gentle reaction from the variator in city rides. I have tested all of that for 3 weeks and then I put back the original rollers. Everyone have different experience with each bike, so I might be wrong. Anyway, clean the variator(dust) every 4000 km.
Hi! How is the scooter with the 16 gr sliders after all this time ? Does the limit speed (160/170 km) maintains? Thanks for the videos.. i have a similar maxsym 600i.
Hi! The sliders do fine, but don't know about max speed. Here limit is 100 kmh, and frankly I wouldn't go as fast as 160 on a scooter anyway. Small wheels... Cheers!
Hello dear Francesco. I also have a Sym 600i 2019, and i saw you changed the transmission oil, and you used 80w90. Even though in the manual it says you have to use 85w140. Can you tell me why? I also have to change the oil on the 1000 km revision.
Hi Pop, easy answer... Can't find anything else than that. Asked the shop where I bought Max, they told me the 80w90 is fine. I had no issues with it. So out of specs but still feasible. It happens a lot. Max is easy... Cheers!
Salve Francesco, se posso darle un consiglio, al prossimo cambio olio sviti il bullone da 17 posto esattamente sotto il banco del motore invece del bullone da 12 che ha svitato lei... O comunque sviti entrambi perché in quello da 17 troverà uno screen filter (bloccato da una molla) che deve essere regolarmente pulito.

Hi Hdc, happy for you! Enjoy it! Cheers!
You made me love MAX before trying it 😁
Great review Francesco, it's a great maxi scooter. Just bought one mine is called the "beast" it's wicked fun 😈😈
I know it is super old. Hope you are getting well.Have you tried it with a syringe to add the transmission oil.
Max still rocking, thanks! I tried with a syringe, but it takes forever. Also my system takes a long time, but it requires very little effort. It works for me... Cheers!

Hello Francesco, have you replaced front and rear break pads? do you have a video doing it?
I am interested in buying one of these Sym Mxsym 600i abs scooters. My question is regarding Top boxes and pannier choices available for this spesific scooter..
Anyone had problem with oil consumption? How did you solve the problem? I'm thinking of trying 20w50 amsoil.
Hi! No problem whatsoever here...

I'm not sure actually... You should look at the specifications for the belt itself, particularly size. If that fits, then it should be okay.
Cheers!

Hi Francesco, what's the latest with the Sym, any updates with how it is - do you still have it?
Sure I have it, went for a ride a few days ago. I want to make a new video soon... You will see!
Cheers!
I look forward to catching up and hearing the latest on your Sym

Could you please tell me what cooling liquid you use for cooling system. What colour?
I'm using a commercial simple anti freeze, I think cyan coloured.

@@francescometalli1004 Hi. My workshop also uses 85w90 so I guess it's fine.
How do I turn the "check oil" light off
Do you know how to change the coolant?

Salve Simone, grazie per il consiglio! Molto interessante, controllerò. Lei ha anche un 600? Saluti!
Sparkplug is not 6mm to 7mm but 0,6 mm to 0,7 mm.

How much liter of oil does it need?
Approx. 2 liters
@@francescometalli1004 Thanks, and the intervals are?

Fuel pump relay location?
Hi. I don't know... Never had to work on it. Pretty sure it's on the maintenance manual, you can find it on Internet. Cheers!
👌🙂
Schön, schön langwierig erklärt, jedoch zeigst du nicht wie du schraubst, das ist schade ! ;(
Meine Empfehlung wäre noch das wichtige Reinigen des Grob-Ölfilter, der mittig in der Ölwanne sitzt ! ;)
