Re: Reg Gas or Premium ?

I use Chevron extra-high premium (94 octane/non ethanol) because it dispenses from a separate pump/hose. All other gas stations use the same pump/hose with 3 options (regular/mid/premium), as such if the previous person filled with regular, that results in about the first 2 litres within the hose wi...

Re: Just need to say I'm blown away that people doubt and refuse to believe the 21 can hit 85mph

My 2013 PCX will easily reach speeds of 85 KMH :)

Maybe the poor boy got a Canadian model which has kilometers per hour instead of MPH

Re: 2011 PCX 125 from.... Germany!

Wow, your PCX looks really good for a 2011....looks damn near brand new As for the hump....yeah it's a pain in the ass, especially if you are tall. You can just remove it and fill in the holes....I bought a Cheeky Seat cover which is a bit expensive but works very well https://scooterseatcovers.net/...

Re: Deja View

Delivered a load of topsoil today to a couple young ladies creating a garden to plant some stuff to eat and contribute to the local food bank. Knew I had been there before, 51 years ago was part of the rowdy crowd stomping the same ground. https://www.jack969.com/2017/04/21/alice-cooper-little-rich...

No more PCX's! Thank you Honda of Canada (Not!) I'm Sorry this happened xixon.

What will you do next? Any plan in mind? Is there another brand scooter dealer nearby? :(
My 2013 PCX has only 6200 KMS (4000 miles) so I figure since I'm 61 years old now, my next scooter will be like this one

Re: Wanted to ride, battery almost dead

my 2013 PCX has the original battery..... I have never used a battery charger/tender and have had no issues yet. I ride my bike almost everyday and park in an underground parking lot which would never go colder than 15C/60F, so this may be a factor on its longevity. I'm sure its days are getting num...

Re: Using Grocery Pick-Up during pandemic

I don't like buying anything online.....I prefer to "see, touch, feel, smell" what I'm buying

I haven't ordered anything online since my "Cheeky Seat cover" which was almost 3 years ago

Re: Need a job?? watch

Great video....that would be fun for about an hour or two :)

It appears that it's a mosty manual production, very little robotic building/assembly

Would love to see the same type of video for our PCX

cheers...thanks for posting
