Re: Which Commuter Scooter ?

Thanks for the feedback.

Why would they say the ABS on NMax are worse than the CBS on the PCX ?

How would you rate the NMax Vs PCS Vs SH125 Vs Vespa GTS for performance and fun ?

Re: Which Commuter Scooter ?

Thanks for the feedback. The A roads are limited to 50mph and incorporate those lovely average speed cameras in sections. There will also be traffic in certain sections at the time of my commute. This means that it is highly unlikely I will need to exceed 60mph which should be fine for a 125cc scoot...

Re: PCX ?

I think the new 3V is now liquid cooled as opposed to air cooled.

SO just to confirm as I am a little confused now. Is the official PCX service interval 2,500 or 5,000 after the first service at 6 months ?

Re: PCX ?

Thanks guys interesting view points. As both manufacturers have 0% interest free credit on offer, the difference in monthly cost is not big hence why I am looking at both. I think if I was forking out the cash up front, the PCX would be a no brainer. I prefer the Vespa GTS body but like the sound of...

Re: PCX ?

Thanks for the advice guys, particularly your breakdown GN2.

I was interested in your reference regarding handling on the PCX with bigger wheels.

Does that mean, compared to a Vespa GTS or LX, the PCX would:
- handle better in the wet ?
- weave in and out of traffic easier and more nimbler ?
