Re: 2013 Honda PCX with <9,300km TOTALED ITSELF.

So it was running at close to wide open when this happened. Did you keep up with service by checking oil level and fluid levels before riding it daily? Maybe one of those was low. These are single cylinder engines and they run hot, so it is important that the fluids be checked regularly. I know tha...

Re: 2013 Honda PCX with <9,300km TOTALED ITSELF.

Did you buy the scooter from new? Recently have it serviced? Seems a long time for a manufacturing fault to show itself. I had it serviced in February 2016 (9 months ago). <10,000km is a long time for a manufacturing fault to show itself? Are you saying this from opinion or professional experience ...

Re: 2013 Honda PCX with <9,300km TOTALED ITSELF.

One other person had a new PCX total itself - posted here long ago and I believe one of the LED versions. Turned out it was due to poor finishing on some part of internal engine metalwork which led to the demise of the engine - dealer and Honda did not admit liability and I believe did not cover mu...

Re: 2013 Honda PCX with <9,300km TOTALED ITSELF.

Brother that's a story we never heard before. No idea how you recover from such a twist of fate. Do you still have possession of the bike? If something like that happened to me I would part out and cut my loses. Unfortunately Honda parts are not worth much :cry: The garage manager told me its the 2...

Someone knocked over my PCX! How do I get touch up paint?

The alarm woke me up. Went outside to check my bike and it was on the floor. Some shmuck knocked my beautiful metallic red PCX over...thankfully the scratches aren't too deep, most can be buffed out. Question is...where do I get touch up paint (R320-P)? How do I apply it correctly?
