I've been riding Elegan for almost 2 years. Daily run is between 80 to 100km. Will not hesitate to recommend this scoot as to me it is the best bang for the buck - at least for my purpose.
It's performance is fairly good with tested top speed of 130kmh. Cruising at 110kmh is a cinch and you can do that basically indefinitely. You can maintain 120kmh for quite some time too but the engine sound a bit stressed. If you are in the mood, the top speed will ensure you seeing the chequered flag first against virtually any kapcai.
FC is 35km/l which to me is acceptable. The tank is 7 litre plus so you don't have to visit fuel station too often.
Maintenance is quite cheap too. I've done almost 28k km and it still using ori belt. For perspective, a driving chain would have to be changed several times for similar distance. I change engine oil every 4k km and gear oil every 8k km. This thing is almost kinda ride and forget bike since you almost virtually don't have to think about it at all. The only grouse is Modenas only have one service centre and of all places, it chosed Subang which is so damned forsaken far away place to go.
Barring unexpected affordable new entry, the SYM GTS will be my next choice. But I really hope it will bring the 250cc version as I think the current 175cc doesn't seem to offer an appreciable upgrade in term of performance compared to Elegan.
spending time on reading this even it was many years and it is still really informative .....
now, SYM250 is on the road getting more and more.
actually, i am riding capcai and plan to get a used scooter. ideally is sym 250 but hear that it is expensive to maintain and also hard to get repaired.
elagent 200 and sym 200, don know which is better.
actually, my aim is used sym250, what do you think of this bike ?
if 250 is not recommended, then elegant and sym 200 is second choice ....
need your advise pls .... i am stay in ampang ..... hard to get workshop and parts ?
