De SYM GTS 300 is een maxi-scooter geproduceerd door de Taiwanese fabrikant SYM (Sanyang Motor), die halverwege de jaren 2010 werd geïntroduceerd als onderdeel van hun premium GTS-assortiment. Het is ontwikkeld om in het groeiende segment van 300cc-scooters te concurreren met rivalen zoals de Yamaha XMAX 300 en Kymco Xciting, en biedt een verfijnde en praktische optie voor stadsgebruik en touren. De GTS 300 valt op door zijn comfortabele ergonomie, ruime opbergruimte onder de stoel en moderne functies zoals ABS en een motor met brandstofinjectie, waardoor hij een populaire keuze is op Aziatische en Europese markten.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Rock-Solid Engine Reliability
The SYM GTS 300 uses a fuel-injected single-cylinder engine known for low maintenance costs and long service intervals. Many owners report 30,000+ km with minimal issues when serviced regularly.
Watch the Belt Drive
The CVT drive belt is a known wear item that should be inspected around 15,000–20,000 km, as neglected belts can snap unexpectedly. Always ask for belt replacement history when buying used.
Strong Resale Value
SYM GTS 300 scooters hold their value better than many Asian competitors due to a loyal ownership community and affordable parts availability. A well-maintained example typically retains 60–70% of its value after three years.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"A dependable, underrated commuter that rewards sensible used buyers."
$2,500-$4,500 usedThe SYM GTS 300 is one of those scooters that quietly gets everything right without demanding your attention. It's a genuinely capable machine — the 278cc single pulls cleanly from low revs and sits comfortably at motorway speeds without feeling stretched. Build quality is noticeably better than the budget Chinese stuff, and SYM's reputation for reliability is well-earned. Find a tidy one and you're looking at years of trouble-free commuting. Used examples tend to have been ridden hard and maintained poorly — that's just scooter ownership culture. Check the variator belt and rollers, inspect the brake discs for warping, and look for oil weeping around the head gasket. Parts availability isn't brilliant outside major cities, so factor that in. The suspension is on the firm side for rougher urban roads, and the instrument cluster feels plasticky compared to Japanese rivals at the same price point. For the money, especially used, it punches well above its class. Not exciting, but that's not the point.
