Apa yang Harus Diketahui Pembeli
Reliable Fuel Injection
The DRG 125 features SYM's fuel-injected engine, which provides consistent cold starts and better fuel efficiency compared to carbureted rivals. This system is generally low-maintenance but inspect injector connections for corrosion on older units.
Watch the Drive Belt
The CVT drive belt is a known wear item that should be inspected every 8,000–10,000 km, as neglected belts can snap and leave you stranded. Always ask for service history confirming belt replacements when buying used.
Steady Resale Value
The DRG 125 holds reasonable resale value in Asian and European markets due to SYM's solid brand reputation and the model's sporty aggressive styling. Low-mileage examples from 2018–2020 are particularly sought after by younger commuters.
