The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Sorry but if you put your foot in front and not on foot pegs, and you have both front and rear brakes on handlebar, then that is the definition of a scooter, CVT does not make a difference... I might be wrong but I thought the essence of a scooter was the engine/drive unit being attached to the swi...

I am interested in the arrow exhaust for the 2020 model it comes either withe a cat or no cat... does it matter which one ? Probably not. Some use pellets, others use a screen/plate which I was told *at least on automotive mufflers* have the same flow effect as a baffle which would have been there ...

HA ! .....this is why this thread should be in a Technical forum. Left hand/Right hand ..... Clockwis...

Maybe the voltimeter poking accomplished something. I am still scratching my head.

Maybe the poking around effected a loose connection or wire break somewhere. Might be good to rattle the connectors and harnesses around a bit to see if the trouble reoccurs.

I hope its easier to adjust the valves.

Can you try starting it while having someone else jiggle different areas of the wiring harness to see if there a loose or broken connection - especially around that relay ?

5 If I remove the relay(CB1-12V ACB13201) tap on the relay and then start the bike for a split second it comes to life and gone again

I’m not knowledgeable to troubleshoot but I think this point he made is important

FWIW I tend to agree with Mel about just replacing the OEM turn signal assembly or finding a suitable aftermarket substitute set at a cheaper price and just replace all 4. Vibration or shock from things like pot holes or other road irregularities can loosen things. That said we all gotta do what we...

Generally a "4T 10W-30 fully synthetic 4-stroke motorcycle engine oil " is fine, but where are you located ? Is it a cold climate?

That’s quick! Wait for a cooler day with low humidity and see what the improvement is !

Nice going with reporting your progress & findings !

Rule out simple stuff like a weak battery (or poor battery terminal connections) first. In some instances, a weak battery or poor terminal connections provide enough strength to energize devices requiring minimal draw, but not others that require more. Check the terminals and charge the battery for ...

It turns out that the engine requires slightly less than 1 quart and the remaining amount will fill the final drive gear. So 1 quart will fill both.

Can the pressure push the radiator cap spring up or does it need to have coolant to the tip to push the spring up? 1) Doesn't matter if it's steam pressure or liquid coolant pressure. Any pressure in the coolant system which is over the radiator cap's rating will force past it into the overflow tan...

Nice.

Likely that someone used incorrect coolant containing silicates which will damage the seals Honda uses.

.......Bike has had regular oil changes at 1/2 the recommented interval since day 1 .....

I do the same.
