The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

I'm using 10w30 Rotella T5 right now.

I just used a craftsman socket and ratchet. kinda pushed the cable out of the way a little and with a bit of effort got the plug off. I'm likely never to remove it again as there was nothing on the screen.

Changed the oil. Shell Rotella T5 10w30. Checked the filter screen for the first time as well, just a small piece of metal was about all I found in it.
When I changed the oil on my old piaggio there was all kinds of junk in the oil, paint chips mostly.. And lint.

A company called dimple makes one. I have it on my PCX.

The factory rear shocks tend to pogo over bumps as well as harsh over bumps. How's the new shocks and Springs?

It's not easy to stay motivated to work while at home ether. Like now... I should be installing the last bits back on my scooter instead of posing on this forum.

The valves were a bit tight, more than .03mm, but they still had some clearance. It sure is not all to easy. If a dealer is charging less than $150 (US) for the first service there is no way they are actually pulling the valve cover! I found there was no need to remove some of the parts that were sh...

I mean.. They could be glass I haven't tried to scratch or beak them, but I was thinking that while I was trying to clean them and they were more difficult to clean than any glass I know of.

@haildamage. Is there a recommended interval at all for valve adjustments in Japan?

Won't hurt using premium but, won't help either.

valve adjustment gone wrong?

Cool!

My dream car would be built to last and easily repairable.

I can notice a bit sound difference. Has more of a bass deep throaty sound if they makes sense is that rubber intake tube just a extension? or is there a restrictor in it? as long as there is no restrictor in it, the bike would have more mid range and low end power in theory due to the longer intak...

You should take a PCX out for a drive and give us your thoughts comparing it to the Vespa. I do have a Piaggio fly 50 witch is similar to a Vespa. We do have bad roads here in Hawaii. I try to avoid the pot holes with ether bike, the Piaggio is a bit more... nimble and, can change direction. The PCX...
