Sh 150 engine in Sh 125 bike

Hi, I have a Honda Vision 110 and am thinking of getting something a little more powerful. I think the Sh 150 would be ideal for me but here in the UK only the 125cc version is available. I notice a number of 150cc engines for sale on eBay and wondered it would be an easy job to fit the larger engin...

Re: Has anyone seen what Honda is offering us now?

What is Honda playing at equipping this with a rear drum brake when the Asia ADV has a disc.
Only in black too (red looks much better).
Still well jealous you’re getting it as there’s no chance it’s coming to the UK.

Re: How to import an ADV150?

Well I guess my dream of getting hold of one of these is put on hold with the Coronavirus outbreak.
If anyone owns one I’d appreciate their views on this bike.
Stay safe!

Re: How to import an ADV150?

Just contacted my local Honda dealer Victor Devine in Glasgow. The very polite and helpful salesperson informed me it’s a very commonly asked question. Unfortunately Honda dealers are not allowed to import non UK models. You can import one privately but I wouldn’t know where to start. Any advice? An...

Re: How to import an ADV150?

Hi Yorkie150. Did your import the bike through your Dealer?
Maybe that should be my first port of call.

Re: How to import an ADV150?

No warranty wouldn’t bother me, It’s a Honda after all :).
I had no problem keeping my grey import Hornets on the road.

Just wanting to know if importing an ADV150 is possible and affordable.

How to import an ADV150?

I like the PCX but here in the UK you can only get the 125cc version. The new ADV150 is far more attractive to me with a bit more torque and power, better brakes yet still lightweight with great economy. I’ve previously owned two Hornet 250 bikes (grey imports) and wondered if it is possible to impo...

Re: PCX 125 with Forza Engine

Hi gn2, thanks for the previous model info. I agree a PCX 200 would be a great bike but with the UK 125 Learner limit, there would be too small a market here and a new frame would need to be designed for the large power increase. The PCX 125 could easily be adapted to take the slightly more powerful...

PCX 125 with Forza Engine

Are Honda not missing a trick here? Why is the PCX fitted with a lowly 9kw engine when it could have their 10.5 kw Forza engine. The extra oomph plus the 30kg lighter bike would give great acceleration and perhaps 75mph top end. The PCX is Honda’s best seller and I think it’s light weight is one of ...
