Re: Looking to buy a new PCX

In regards to your servicing question, This has been discussed a fair few times on here I have also seen it talked about on other forums. The bottom line is honda DO charge a fair amount for servicing. And over a couple of years actually takes the 'cheap' out of owning a scooter. Also remember tyres...

Re: Break in and increasing fuel economy

I can get near 200 miles a tank on my pcx that's taking it easy at around 49mph, 2015 pcx so larger tank, 125ish mpg. if I hit faster roads then my fuel ecconomy droppes a fair bit.

Re: Optimal speed

I ride at 60mph (100kph)for miles and miles at a time, no problems here so far! The honda pcx is fairly under powered and restricted with a very safe Rev limiter you will be fine at 90kph for hour and hours with any issues at all

Re: How do I prevent getting blown about in winds?

buy a screen! it will deflect the wind over your bike instead of right at you. on a naked motorcycle / scooter without a screen, your body will act as a giant wind brake causing all sort of aerodynamic issues. a screen will not make it perfect but will help, the honda pcx is a light scooter to start...

Honda forza 125 uk cost.

and the magic price is: £3995

More than I expected it must be some serious piece of equipment for that price!

My dealer is expecting their first delivery sometime next week

Just thought I would inform anyone who was curious as I couldn't find nothing on the web.

Dosent seem any faster than a pcx125, it simply seems they have just removed the limiter.

Re: Long Distance Commuting

The bike will handle it fine it's weather you could handle the 60mph limit, keep it serviced and it will just keep going and going..

Just remember you will go through the like of tyres a lot faster due to mileage

Although the limit is 70mph heavy goods vehicles are restricted by law to 56mph you also get older people that will do slower speeds I have found it comfortable cruising behind a heavy goods vehicle obvio...

Re: Who's got the most miles/km on their PCX!?

1300 miles? Do I win? Doh.... Seriously with correct maintinence regular oil changes there is no reason why a pcx couldn't go 100k miles or more without needing engine work. It's a honda made in the 21st century, I have even seen chinese imported bikes racking up serious mileage these days. Only thi...
