My new wheels - SYM Attila 125cc

Post by Peter Panini »

So - moved town, and bought a cheapy for the short term. Cost me $172.

She's a SYM Attila 125cc - not the prettiest of bikes, but she runs well, and gets me from A to B.

Suggestions for pimping her performance please. I've changed the oil, put air in the tyres and put a new air filter in today.

She runs pretty well - no mad acceleration and no disc brakes, so I tend to ride her gently.

Anything cheap I can do to get her revving at her best - oil filter? Fuel filter? Exhaust upgrade?

No point doing any modifications, they'll just compromise the reliability.
If you want to go faster, buy a bigger scooter.

It reminds me a bit of a PGO Metro/Buddy 125 . . .. 8)

I'd just keep it running good stock. Put your money where it will do the most good like for gas, the usual list of maintenance items, and maybe a top box. Check the oil regularly and if the rear shock becomes a concern maybe consider replacing that.

PGO also made a scoot called a "Libra 125". Nice machine . . . bigger floor board. Different than the PCX.
