Re: New Owner

Happy to report Michelin citygrip come as standard plus service intervals are every 4000. Hey Red Baron from London are you having us on? I mean it's OK if you are but if the Michelin City Grips and enhanced service levels and pet carrier load capacity are for real then it's just totally cool. Sorr...

Re: Helmet Hook

Nope. . .never had a helmet stolen. They aren't exactly new. . .

I try to be discrete where I park my two wheelers when I run errands. And if I go to a restaurant or something I try to position it so that I can see it out the window from my table.

Re: New Owner

AHhhhhhh yes. . .as they say good things come to those who wait. I'm totally psyched. I've got to wait about 6 more months to get mine. Haven't ordered one yet. Hoping to get a deal on a leftover 2107 if the 2018's are out by then. Thanks for the info and if you get a chance to share any pics that w...

Wow. . .good for you. . .definitely grin material. :) So you say the "City Grips" come stock now? 2017 right? You didn't ask to have them put on as part of the deal? Also is maintenance every 4000 Km or miles? Or what service is it you are referring to. I'm in the market for a new one late...

Re: Helmet Hook

Due to the fact that most if not all FF helmets won't fit under the seat, does anyone use the flimsy helmet hook contraption, or is there a gadget available to lock the helmet to the bike? All you have to do is buy a couple of these. . . fakebarf.jpg Put one next to the helmet and the other on the ...

Re: Weather/Wind Protection with Stock Windscreen & Front Co

It is Winter here too. Today it is 45 degrees (F) and the wind is blowing at 20 mph. I don't think very many riders can ride comfortably in this, however I am equally sure that there aren't ANY riders out in your weather. I think I prefer our weather to yours. Nope, no two-wheelers on the roads aro...

PCX150Rider - What fuel additive? Do you put any into your tank? Is there a difference in petrol when doing long trips compering to city commuting or normal riding? There are two fuel additives I add to my motorcycle gas tanks. . . seasonally. . .or under certain conditions. Generally I use Marvel ...

Re: Prep for a 2600km trip on a 2016 PCX150

Did you buy the PCX new? Or did you buy it used and someone else did the initial break-in riding on it? If you bought it new then you know what you know. . . I'm still on cue to buy one this year but if I was going to do an extended trip I'd at least pull the CVT cover to see if there's any dust or ...

Re: Weather/Wind Protection with Stock Windscreen & Front Co

Yesterday it was over 60 degrees F. and sunny here where I live. . .

Today we have a Blizzard and are forecast to get 12 to 18 inches of snow. . .go figure. . .and more snow this weekend.

Sadly I don't think a tall fairing on a PCX would do me any good today. :roll:

Re: How Does the PCX 150 Rate Carrying a Passenger?

If your going to ride 2 up, Get the tall Givi fairing and the NCY variator and faceplate, and toss in 11 or 12 gram rollers.
I've heard about the NCY products. . .I'll keep that in mind. . .

I'm inclined to think that a taller fairing is the way to go as well. . .thanks for the info!

What's the volume on the Emgo trunk? From what I've read it measures 16 1/2 inches W X 12 inches D X 11 inches H or 35 Liters. Reviews are generally good in a "bang for the buck" perspective. I'd mount it directly to a luggage rack though. I wouldn't use a removable type mount. . .but tha...

Re: How Does the PCX 150 Rate Carrying a Passenger?

A few things to consider for the PCX: The Genuine Roughhouse does comply with CARB as far as pollution levels go. It is a lot better than 2-strokes in days of yore used to be. . .and in the big picture not so bad. Motorcycle manufactures don't do the 350, 500, 750, 2-strokes anymore for the street ...
