Honda CB500X

Just wanted to throw this topic out there for some clean and happy discussion : ) I love my 2013 PCX 150 and I am going to keep it until it doesnt want me anymore, but I have been in search of a second scoot/bike that will be useful for longer distance and higher sustained speeds. Here is a list of ...

Re: Trade the PCX for this PCXish motorcycle?

For me this a true scooter like motorcycle; Automatic, under seat storage, good fuel economy..... and look out for the awesome discounts. I have been looking at the Interceptor for a long time also, but I think that I would probably get this if I could convince myself that I need more vehicles in my...

Re: Cheeky Seats review

In any event, it looks like this seat cover is designed for the older PCXs. My seat may already be better. (If so, those older seats must be danged uncomfortable.) For me it is the silly hump that is annoying sometimes. It keeps me from scooting : ) back as far as I would like to be in a comfortabl...

Re: New front brake

I might have to make the plunge and get the NCY Front Disk. I have the upgrade bug, and this seems to be a useful and nice looking upgrade.

Re: Cheeky Seats review

Thanks for the reply. I have heard of people sanding/removing the plastic riser. I have not taken off my hump yet, but I guess you can still feel a hard spot from the riser where the hump used to be.

Re: Cheeky Seats review

I am going to have to look into getting the "Honda PCX PADDED Scooter Seat Cover Black Faux Leather 2010-13".
Can you think of any negative points with your new seat cover?

Re: Age old question - 87 or premium

So Our PCX Manual says : Use unleaded petrol with a research octane number of 91 or higher.... now this translates to > > > As a rule, the recommended octane rating can be determined by subtracting four (4) from the recommended RON number. A vehicle that calls for "91 RON" should use 87 oc...

It fits well(snug) with the big Givi attached to the rear.

As for an online ONLY manual the only one I look at sometimes is this, but it is not 2016.... http://www.hondampe.com.au/docs/owning_a_honda/owners_manuals/motorcycles/Scooter_PCX125_2011.pdf I use it sometimes although I do not have a 2011 125.

Re: Where was your PCX assembled?

Maybe different years and different areas have different countries of origin.

Re: Just rollers vs complete variator

I will see if I can find it again, but I am thinking it is 45-55. I used an impact gun because I was scared to damage the variator fins on the aftermarket variator. The OEM variator has the 2 holes for the tool to keep it from spinning and will allow you to use your torque wrench.

Re: Just rollers vs complete variator

You can use the variator tool... OR... impact gun with "torque stick"(which is what I did). I have a variator tool but didnt bother using it as the impact gun will remove it easier/quicker, and with a "torque stick" you can control how tight you put it back on without breaking st...

Re: Help, I got sent the wrong shocks!

I purchased 2 sets, YSS Hybrid and also G-series with bottom reservoir. They had both the bottom and top reservoir available at the shop where I purchased them but ended up going with the bottom out of visual preference. All I hear is positive reviews about these aftermarket shocks compared to our O...

Re: Help, I got sent the wrong shocks!

I know this doesn't help but I was looking all over Thailand (while I was there for 5 weeks) and I could not find any XXL YSS Shocks. I was thinking they discontinued them. Just my observations, but I am not sure.

Re: YSS G Shock Arrived - Could Use A Little Help

you don't want lateral play in the shock mounts... use washers to shim. those shocks look nice, by chance can you weigh them for me.(pounds or grams) Dashredder, I apologize but I did not see your post until too late and the shocks were already installed, so weighing them was not an option. However...
