Is it a stretched Honda Ruckus?
Photo of Dave Chappelle in my coffee village. That's ol' Tim in the background (village sidewalk mayor)
Also saw a photo of him riding a Royal Enfield in town....wears a helmet on the Enfield.

Let's face it, the vast majority who buy such machines never take them on adventurers. Like people who buy SUVs. They are mostly for soccer moms and wannabe outdoorsmen who don't like getting their hands dirty let alone rough it. It's all about image, nothing more.
One reason in US, dealers having nothing in stock/accessories is: scooter market in US dead or near death.
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.
Might be selling short VW longevity. Last one I used for a trade in had 185,000 miles on it and was still a great running family car.
Like many aircooled....keep valves and timing in spec and freq. oil changes.

I am getting the impression that the Sym is better quality, as I don't often come across Sym issues in forums when I am doing a general search. In fact, never.

Also, if you're planning to introduce a bike that is 100lbs lighter and has the same engine power, for the same price, you might want to discontinue the bike and give the old ones a chance at clearing out.
The name, and the shape, brings to mind green F1 cars of old ----- and the Morgan.
Is there a British connection with this company?
