Re: Do not look. It will change your life

I think a "garage/apartment" like the one here featured at around 9 minutes is what I'd want.

Re: :( So long PCX

Time for an update on my Sinnis: Firstly I discovered it's a relaunch of an old Suzuki TU250 Grass Tracker from the 80's. Sinnis specifications included downsizing the engine to make an accessible "city commuter, suitable for learners. They had the old Marauder 4 stroke GZ125cc engine put into ...

black silicone hose the right diameter cut to length and then slide it over the bracket mounts and make sure it's a snug fit. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Silicone-Vacuum-ASH-Hose-Pipe-Silicon-Water-Air-Coolant-Dump-Valve-Radiator-/290640027512?pt=UK_DIY_Materials_Plumbing_MJ&var=&hash=item43ab...

Re: French Scooter Porn

I have to wait until I get home to look at these, since I work for the US Government, I can't visit most foreign sites from work. I know how you feel on that one, the UK government are just as strict as to what I can surf at work. Edscoot - you mentioned the term "friendly fire" - that ha...

Re: Dr. Martens boots?

Tristik has a point. Army surplus stores sell some pretty good footwear. I use a pair of German Para boots on my trials and trail bikes for 11 years, and even use them on my bikes now, I've probably walked 10,000 miles in them too, the soles are worn out now so time for a new pair. If you go down th...

Re: Honda vs Givi Accessories

I'm not sure if it's the same in the US or not, but, in the UK the Honda top boxes are Givi.

Prices can differ by quite a bit between having a "givi" badge or "Honda" badge.

I'd personally say Givi all the way they are quality products.

PCX150 - originality?

http://www.cars-directory.net/gallery/s ... _150/2002/

Thought this might of interest to folks on here - It's a 150 suzuki had out in the early 2000's, the similar looks and the fact its a 150 make me think perhaps, just perhaps Honda got a bit lazy this time round with the PCX.

Yes - Classic Motorcycles and then down to Riderwear to look for a new lid. They have some end of line Viper lids for less than £50. :)

Re: ouch times 3

Sinnis produced the Trackstar in conjunction with jinan qingqi ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jinan_Qingqi ). It's a Grass Tracker that was basically relaunched through Sinnis http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www.suzukicycles.org/photos/suzuki-history/2002/2002_grasstracker_ow_450.jpg&am...

It sucks at the minute, can't ride my new machine to work, have to get the Bus, got a stupid elbow crutch for another week. On the plus side the room the fish tank was in was due to be decorated - so that's the first job for me when I'm fit. On another thing altogether has anyone tried Dodo Juice pr...

I've been away a while after a series of misfortunes. Firstly: I managed to up end my mountain Bike at speed whilst Freeriding on a black run, in the process managing to go off the trail and falling 20 feet down through rock strewn irrigation trough. Half way down me and the bike parted company and ...

Re: :( So long PCX

The police rang me today to inform me that what is left of my PCX was recovered last night from a small muddy Track on the outskirts of the city. It had been dumped and then burned out. So that ends the chapter of my PCX. I may consider getting another one in a few years time but for now I'm enjoyin...

Re: Variators for increased speed,

I'd like to jump in with a new slant on this everlasting discussion. As I don't own a PCX anymore and don't intend getting one again in the near future I can now say what I have known about for a while. In the Uk the Honda PCX is NOT classed as a worldwide model - Honda reprogrammed the ECU for the ...

I got the Sinnis insurance for £153 through Highway that's the cheapest quote I can get with a claim against me this year. Swinton on the other hand found me a quote that due to the total loss was.....£651!!! :o I seriously think UK insurance and the FSA themselves need to take a good hard look at h...

Re: :( So long PCX

First off I don't want a bigger bike - the point of having a 125cc is that you go everywhere taking tiny little sips of petrol getting 100+mpg. That's the appeal to me, plus I stick to a CBT so I'm able take pillion which is good, plus no motorway riding - which is even better. I just liking taking ...
