Re: How-To: Swap the Rear Suspension

Hi- I am mainly a reader, not a poster on this forum-mainly cause I am never at a computer where I can type easily. I have a question, though, and I hope someone could answer it for me. I bought my 2016 pcx 150 about a year ago and have to ride about 3 miles over a very rough road just to get out of...

Re: Hanging around, waiting to ride...

Am I geared up? Oh yeah-a full face helmet, jacket, and gloves and boots. Had to get boots with a bit of heel cause I am only 5' 2" tall. I could flat foot on the Reflex but not on the PCX. Thats ok though-it keeps me from sticking my feet out. The PCX is so well balanced I can practically stop...

Re: Hanging around, waiting to ride...

Very true! I tend to drive with my accelerator, rather than with my brake in my car, and I find myself driving the scooter the same way. I do need to pay more attention to whats behind me. In fact, as I learned in class, I know I need to pay attention to everything way more when riding the scooter! ...

Re: Hanging around, waiting to ride...

Hi Homie, Thanks for the welcome. It took a few minutes to figure out the profile thing but I did list my location. The accelerometer is what my husband called it. It is a device made by a couple of companies-Gearbrake.com is who we bought it from. Basically, its a custom wiring harness which plugs ...

Hanging around, waiting to ride...

Hi All, New rider here. Last August I decided to ask hubby for a scooter. I didn't realize what I was getting into! Ha! He bought me a 2003 Reflex and I spend 5 months practicing at the school, riding on the rough gravel roads which mostly make up where we live, and yes, crashing. (But not too badly...
