The DD is not particularly imposing but the styling is more modern than many of it’s contemporaries that look more like throwbacks to the ‘80’s. The modern design is sleek and more unique than most, enhanced by attractive details such as the lights, chrome accents and two-tone mirrors.

SYM have done a fantastic job with their production cost vs retail with this machine, somehow they have managed to put together a bike that most manufacturers would put to market at a sticker price potentially 10 or 20% higher than the DD50 without downgrading the final package specification. Over all the SYM DD50 is a great machine, with a reasonable entry price. The combination of peppy performance, decent brakes and fantastic handling make this a serious contender for your scooter-purchasing dollar. When you add to this combination solid fuel economy, good storage, low weight and one of the best ignition switches out the DD really starts to stand out. Would it take out the Jog? If you can get them both in your market ride them both… if not I have no doubt that you will be thrilled with this fine machine.
