Re: How-To: Install a final drive gear up kit

Update Max now 112kph, 70mph by GPS The Speedohealer now has the scooter speedo reading the same as the GPS. It no longer bounces off the speed limiter at maximum speed as it used to. I'm happy with it as I can now keep up with the traffic as I exit Montreal island on the autoroutes (interstates). I...

I then looked in the parts fiche and that is what it is supposed to be. I should have checked the parts fiche before I bought the replacement gears. Stupido!! So I ...

Re: How-To: Install a final drive gear up kit

Hi Maddiedog

It has been many years since you did this. I have purchased the new gears to do it to my 2015. (The Yuminashi kit (FORGED GEAR SPROCKET SET 15/45 )(3.0))
Did you find that the results were worth the effort and expense?

Thanks

My 2015 with 7000kms has exactly the same noise as demonstrated in the video link. I had no idea I had a problem.

Re: How-To: Oil Change For Honda PCX

So, if I use a "quality synthetic 10-30 motor oil" and it does have 'energy conserving' written the circle it should be just fine.
The choice of those is is large but not so without it in the circle.

Cheers

Re: Is Castrol Power 1 Engine Oil 10W-30 4T ok in 2018 PCX

Anyone use an engine oil with "Energy Conserving" printed in the circle on the back of the containers.
I am aware the owners manual says not to use it.

Re: How-To: Oil Change For Honda PCX

Just read all 12 pages.

Still confused as to whether or not we can use "energy conserving" oil in our clutchless engines. I know the manual says not to. I have a 2015 PCX 150..
