Almost the same weather in both places!!

I have owned a GIVI top for more than 20 years, passing it from one motorbike to the next one, and I still have it in my other scooter, rattle free and with its waterproof properties intact ;) The SHAD that I installed in my PCX looks and feels as rock solid, waterproof and well built as the GIVI on...

>>> Wait! While I've got you here reading....would you mind adding your location? We'll be able to help you better that way,...now and in the future. I've posted some simple directions right below my post to get that done Hey! :D :D :D :D I was goint to suggest him/her the same! I guessed that he/s...

If I remember correctly, some top of the line models do have brake lights, as SHAD tries to compete with GIVI, which sells brake equipped cases. I'm not sure if all SHAD's models are available worldwide, though... I also think that it's a wonderful safety feature!

Very interesting read!!! When I change the oil I'll be careful, so that I don't spill as much oil as your neighbor helped you to!

Very interesting comparison! You have a good collection of scooters, by the way

Thanks again for the very useful information! In this forum one learns a lot!

I'm sorry about that... perhaps you can have a look at your local eBay, or if you have some local websites like "Craigslist" in the States and see if they sell PCX parts and their prices? Also, you could purchase a wrecked PCX and use the motor?

It's really a very good job, and we all appreciate it!

Really good price!! I have had a look at the page and haven't found the 2015 (2014 in Europe) manual, but the shipping fee for the older model's manual is just $25, so for those owning the former model is a VERY GOOD option

I guess that they are available from the Honda dealer and won't be expensive? In my old motorcycles I have changed the radiator coolant and it was easy, but I didn't need to remove any sealing washers and o-rings... I'll have a look at the Service Manual to see how the process is achieved

Awesome!!! Thank you very much for the effort and time to record these instructions, and I'm sure that they will be really helpful for those who decide to do their own maintenance to their PCXs :D :D :D :D :D :D An advice for those living in the USA: Don't even hesitate about purchasing the Service ...

Perhaps you can (temporarily) close the gap with duct tape to ride the scooter and test if the thing improves? You can take a picture with the duct tape in place, so that we can better assess the problem?

Really interesting product!

Let's hope that you don't need to modify the original Forza seat, so you can avoid spending the extra $$!

And what finally happened? Could you/they remove the bolt?

Ohhhh.... given that in these countries they sell lots of PCXs and only some Forzas, it's very unlikely that they get a "non oem" supplier for the seat frames...

The Shad adapter plate , does that mount to the rear of the scooter instead of the OEM Honda mounting plate ?. The box then attaches to the Shad adapter , correct ? Yes, to both questions ;) I presume either option for mounting plate does secure to some part of the frame ?. TIA Yes, the SHAD adapte...

It sounds reasonable, but lots of PCX owners (like myself ;) ) do not cruise in the scooter, but prefer to have some protection from cold or rain in the city. In fact, I would not purchase a scooter if it was not possible to install a high windshield ;) Given that manufacturers are not "non pro...

I wonder why it takes longer to GIVI to begin selling it in the States?
