The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

cant say i have noticed any shake on mine, quite smooth though sometimes i can hear/feel a slight clunk when the engine idle kicks in or stop lol

definitely take it back to the dealer and get them to test ride it, if its that bad i'm sure they'll put it right.

thanks for the heads up, waiting for my cheap ass 17mm drill bit but sounds like i need to file it down a bit more.

Hopefully you find the right sealant as I will be look for some too.

dont know the dimension of your new phone but this is what I have got my galaxy S3 and fits good http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330552132285?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 Probaly will fit yours too but do check! I like this as its in 2 parts, you can screw the handle bar bit on a...

if you have a 4S, there is no point in getting a 5, a friend did and she said its the same but a bigger screen. I went from iPhone 3GS to Galaxy S3, big jump but loving it. The 2 gadget i'm looking for at the moment is a clock (preferably digital) for the PCX and waiting for christmas to buy a Canon...

I got one of those gps mounts for the handle bar, works well however in the daytime the plastic in front of the screen makes it glary. Still I only use every now and then for sat nav on my Samsung s3 and works fine

what about taking it into the house?

unless the place where you are leaving it is fairly safe?

I normally ride it over the winter and when i dont, at most it'l only max 2 months before riding again. If its going to sit outside then definitely get a good cover, R&G does a really good one which I used for 2 years on my sports bike, held up fine. Apart from that I would say remove the batter...

I saw an X10 the other day, it looks huge compared to a PCX, looks nice though.

i'm not threadjacker!

Well hopefully they get more tyre options, its been 2 years and only the city grips and diablos are the only 2 other tyres i know of to fit the standard size.

Probably due to the awkward tyre size hence not much choice.

No matter how good the tyres are, when it's wet I just can't seem to force myself to lean, in the dry it seems fine. Guess good tyre reviews just give me a bit more confidence, on the straight no problems. Although more tyre choice is best but with only 3 to pick from, that's a lot less headache ;)

White noise got exposed! I'm 5'8, can flat foot one side, all you need otherwise both foot if you slide forward. You might get use to it and not bother. This was the same when I got my gixer, couldn't flat foot it on side even with boots but soon got use to it and didn't bother with lowering springs...

Thinking I'm going to replace my winter gloves first and see how I go. Else I'll get some I am Christmas as it the current weather in the UK seems to push forward, guessing it'll snow on valentines day lol

Hi guys,

Anyone know what the normal amp draw on the PCX with all the lights on, engine on?

was about to get some heated grips but recall reading someone saying 5 amp was normal as there is a 10amp fuse?

The heated grips are 4amp at max setting so little leverage for the 10amp fuse?

thanks

at least he get flashed by the speed cameras lol

whilst on this subject, where should I (when i do buy mine soon) splice into for the switched live? I want mine off when the idle cuts in.

ground to the battery or is there a better location on the frame?

Thanks

how have you wired the hot grips, is it always on?

could it be you left it on and the battery is drained? try charging up your battery and see if that helps.

cheers whitenoise! I'm going to drill the new one before installing, the old one i'll sell it on as i'm sure people will want the tail or handy in repairing plastic. Just unfortunate really, also i've only had the bike 3 weeks and already i'm getting scratches and marks on the side, espcially on the...

Stupid question but how long is the shelf life of these? I know they put a film on it hence why you ride 100 ish miles to wear them out

Might get a set and leave it in the garage

Each to their own I'd say. The pcx was designed with economy in mind, I won't be doing any performance mods. However the tops speed on a stretch of road for me is 50, the rest is 30 so top speed is not needed. Riding 2 up with the missus is fine too. So as long as the mods cost minimal its ok, but s...

not sure if its true but the eSP engines have a slightly higher rev limit hence bit more top speed.

If shame they dont come in white as standard, only red for now
