I'm getting back on a bike/scooter after 6 years ive narrowed it down to 2 a new sym symphony st200 or a used 2010 Honda sh300 full service history 10500 on clock about £200 difference in price new or old all advice appreciated.
I'm no scooter expert, but I've had both Honda bikes & cars over the years. Phenomenal depth of engineering, great paint finishes & amazing longevity & reliability. Then there's parts availability & dealer facilities. Honda EVERY time.I had an SH300 for commuting 
It's a nippy little machine, doesn't weigh much and doesn't feel any less nimble than a smaller machine in town.
For commuting, it was much easier than a big bike, with the added bonus that I wasn't worried about so much about parking it up to find (typically another scooter) rammed up next to it.

What are they going to be used for? If it is commuting and there is any motorway or dual carriageway in the commute either of those are going to be a bit insubstantial/unpleasant.
If those are the only choices and I had to have one with no other alternatives I would choose the Honda. My only concern if it is for urban commuting being its age, if any rules/taxes/charges are bought in based on vehicle age you may end up paying more for something older.
