Re: 2018 Honda PCX Performance

Do you know the benefits of those spoked wheels? Faster scoot? lower rolling resistance?

Re: Pcx 150 2015 Leo Vince Gp Corsa exhaust

You want the bolts to hold the part, not back out and not to strip the bolts. When I don't know I go by the size of the bolts. From first hand experience, I know that ,10mm bolts break easily. For those I use the wrench as the measuring stick. Since the wrench is short, I use it by itself and I use ...

Re: PCX Drive Belt - What do you think?

The workshop manual states that it has to be replaced at 15,000 miles, you are at 19000. Replace it, otherwise it will break on you when you need it the most. Gil My suspicion is that Honda are "very kind" to their dealers and recommend the replacement of some components long before they ...

Re: Oxford Heated Grips

I fitted them myself. A few tips (learnt through mistakes). 1. Check you can get the bar ends off. If you struggle get an impact driver from Halfords. I nearly rounded the screws before getting an impact driver. The screws are secured with locktite so not easy to remove . The bar ends are hard to r...

I bought a set of hand guards from eBay. They are clear smoked plastic.

My attempt to retrofit the bigger OEM fuel tank into 2013PCX

Hello all, I have finally ordered the newer 2 gallon fuel tank for my 2013 Honda PCX 150. I ordered a new tank from an online, CheapCycleParts.com. I have received a used fuel pump assembly from a 2016 Honda PCX. In the next couple weeks I hope to take the scoot apart and replace the fuel tank. The ...

Re: 2015 Honda PCX150 Black Metallic (Performance informatio

You know what you are doing. Sendler had posted that the 13 gram weights with the NCY variator kit would put the engine at peak power at 65 MPH, as I remember it. My scoot will do 65 MPH most days, unless a headwind or sidewind or a hill or cold temperature present themselves. From other member post...

Re: New rider here, some basic questions about the 2017 PCX1

The scoot will barely do 65 MPH on the Highway, if conditions permit. I just ride on the slow lane and try to draft some bigger vehicles. The scoot is suited for city riding and 50-55 MPH roads. I only hesitate to take it into the highway when it's a windy day, unless it's a tailwind. It's the perfe...

UPdate to my Fuel tank retrofit.

I have ordered a new 2016 fuel tank, for 46$ + shipping, and have gotten a used fuel pump assembly from ebay for 35 USD. I also ordered new rubber fuel pump sealing gaskets. I only foresee the plastic fuel lid being an issue as the lid mechanism is quite cumbersome on the 2013 scoot. I'm planning to...

Re: What do you think of my new seat cover?

I like the seat cover you have there. As for it being feminine, if feel confident in your manhood and have to need to prove it then rock whatever you want, that's what I do. I would only be concerned about its durability when exposed to the elements.
