Re: Hit 80 mph on my 2013 PCX (164 lbs rider, tucked, drafting behind behind truck)
Your at the top end without making more engine power. I can bounce on the limiter at 78 to 80 doing the same drafting an tucking but there's no more to be had without displacement increases and gearing changes and even rev limiter changes after that. On a sled the size of the PCX being able to cruis...

Re: Standard Exhaust Mods 2021 pcx
Very cool video and info. If you did nothing other than modify the exhaust, your results may debunk some of the doubters that there's any power gains by doing so. Interesting for sure. Thanks for posting!

Re: Topbox/rack Load
I have ridden with 25lbs, and maybe more in my Top box and the same under the seat, sometimes at the same time. Of course it affects the handling, but you just need to be aware of it and not ride like a fool. The rack and box will hold the weight. Also remember that if you crash and the box comes lo...

Re: Tire recommendation?
I run my front City Grip 120/70 at 23-ish psi and the the Rear 140/70 at 28-30-ish. Never run the same PSI in a higher volume tire mounted on the same rims on the same bike of the same weight. You don't do it on Motos, Cars or even bicycles. My mechanic put them up to normal specs and the bike handl...

Handlebar alignment
Before I get the tools out and start playing, has anyone had any experience with aligning the bars, if it's even possible? The clamps are not at 90deg when going straight. Not sure how or when it happened or if I just never noticed it, but it's bothering me now. If anyone knows a fix for this other ...

I have mine mounting right in the middle of the bar clamps. I may have mounted upside down to make it work but can't remember. Works perfectly. Been using one since I bought the scoot.

Finished Saddle Mod and re-cover
De-humped, and sculpted with a mini finger belt sander from Amazon. You can see the rounded contour that I shaped on the last large rib. Also built the front hump up about 1-1.5 inches so I no longer slide off the front under hard braking. The difference is amazing. The ride quality is vastly improv...

Re: Acceleration test
My objective was more top end, not how fast I could get there. If you tune the CVT correctly, you can obtain great acceleration, and retain top end speed. The goal is to go as light as possible with the weights but heavy enough to get full Variator travel. Allowing the belt to fully travel, instead...

Re: Rear Brake surge
After my mechanic changed my tires and shocks, (and told me the rear brake pads would last forever on this thing), The rear brake feels like its grabs then lets go then grabs and lets go like an out of round drum on an old truck that need to be machined down. I took it back and he put new pads in i...

Re: Rollers or Sliders
I am running 3- 13Gram rollers and 3- 10 gram rollers at the moment. Way better than 13 gram in my opinion.

Re: Acceleration test
I have no idea. Maybe the app malfunctioned. Guess I'll have to go do it a few more times. I did it after about 5 minutes of riding so I know the belt wasn't very hot. Felt like the front wheel was going to come off the ground. Could be a fluke, or luck, or just perfect timing. Don't know for sure, ...

Re: Front suspension upgrade
FWIW, I have YSS XL Shocks installed and yes they are a bit stiff one up, but not after I removed my seat hump and moved my center of graft aft (me arse is back farther on the saddle). I went back to a seat that pushed me forward and just moving that 2-3 inches made the ride worse, went back and it'...

Re: Tire size
So I’ve seen a lot of posts about tires. But never a good explanation I had ordered 120’ss for the front and was gonna do the 140’ss for the rear. But I want to know if that’s risky or not? Or should I stick to the oem size? Also has anyone changed they’re bars? And bar ends. ? Thanks :ugeek: I hav...

Re: 125 Exhaust on a 150?
It seems like most everything I've read so far say that the parts between the 125's and 150's are interchangeable. That said, is there any problem bolting a 125 exhaust up to the 150 motor? Seems like it shouldn't work right but perhaps the exhaust port on the motor is the same size between the two...
