The ST & the HD appear to mostly share a chassis, but that's about it.

The HD, which is no longer available in the U.S. either, also has an external fuel filler, something I appreciate.

The motor in the ST looks, by spec, to be the same one used in the Lance scooters in the U.S.
Not a terrible motor but notably less power than the HD, & a bit less than the People S, also not available in the U.S.

Having owned all three motors here’s what I’ve found.
The 171 in the HD is the best under 200cc scoot motor ever, period.
The 163 SYM/Lance is a quicker motor than then 161 in the S.

My s200 topped out at 54.
My cali Classic 200 at 67.
The HD at 75.

The ST200 is not the Kymco S200.
Basically it looks to be a SYM HD frame with slightly different bodywork and an air-cooled motor that looks to spec the same as the "200" used for the Lance bikes here.
So should be a bit poppier than the S200 but slower than the HD.
I'm not seeing the HD200 anywhere so my suspicion is it's a Euro4 victim.
