Re: How-To: Upload A Photo To hondapcx.org

Thanks all for the various useful posts.
I recently made a new Facebook account just for making public albums of scooter/bike tasks.
Then I posted a link to it on this site.
I thought we were unable to upload to this site, full stop.
Thanks a lot, the uploading advice is much appreciated.

Re: How to: brake fluid replacement

For anyone doing it, it's exactly the same process for the combined system, but the plastic cowl needs to come off to top the reservoir up. Oh, and obviously you pump the rear brake lever and use the other bleed nipple on the caliper! :) ........................................................ Thank...

Re: Transmission oil check/change !!

Seems I need to read up on this then.
I took the dealer at his word, but if you feel that engine oil is NOT a reasonable substitute for gear oil, then I feel I ought to check out the tech' argument.
Thanks.

Re: How-To: Valve Adjustment for Honda PCX

Followed this for the 2015 PCX (Chassis KF18-100++++) Japan model. Thought I had copy and pasted the procedure incorrectly, as when I got to removing the center console, I saw that it is different to the one featured here. My fuel cap cover opens on an arm forward of the fuel filler cap, not to the...

Re: Adding a Facebook page or group as a photo library

I HAVE seen a few posts with links to photo folders elsewhere, so it certainly can be done. Adding two or three pics to a post is OK, but I can see that a how-to with lots of pics would be an arduous effort (A huge thanks to all who have performed this selfless act). OTOH, having narrative between ...

Re: Small lights either side of the 2015 LED headlight unit

Could you please post an annotated diagram or photo so we can see what it is you're referring to? I have a 2013, and I just can't picture what your headlight assembly looks like. There are '15 owners here though. If they could see what you mean, they likely can help. I will try to do that when I ca...

The link below goes to my attempt at a 2015 PCX version of this 'How-to' thread. The album is set to 'public'.

Re: Adding a Facebook page or group as a photo library

Bollocks!
I have just spent ages making a whole new FB page and making a photo album and describing each photo in detail.
Well, I'm keeping that page and once that photo album if finished, I am going to link it from here.
Thanks, though, flyingzonker.

Re: Adding a Facebook page or group as a photo library

I also tried to do the same with my Google account, adding photos to Google's photo library under my personal account. However, I want to keep my PCX stuff separate from my personal pages.

Small lights either side of the 2015 LED headlight unit

0n the 2015 LED headlights, on either side there is what appears to be 'side-lights', or what would be called that if the bike did not have permanent-on (LED) headlights. In practical terms, they serve no real purpose as they are much less bright than the LED headlights themselves. Do you know the o...

Re: Special tool to remove drive pulley

I got a generic version, variously named as a clutch tool, a pulley holder and variator tool. In principal they all do a very similar job in a very similar way, and as mine is adjustable, it is suitable for a range of sizes and shapes etc. it was about 1800 yen (certainly less than 2000), which is a...

Re: How to...? Or... When to...?

Change the oil and ride it is my advice. If you do loads of miles invest in a manual. It isn't hugely more complicated than a decent petrol mower really. Well, that's a fair comment, but I am one of those people who will think about all the time if I have not done as the maker suggests. I have the ...

Re: How to...? Or... When to...?

Sure someone will always give you specific details on whats due per the manual, but for now where are you at on mileage with your 2015? Have you used your dealer for anything yet? Most likely you can do an oil change and skip the valve check and just ride it to 5k I talk in 'kilometres' unless I sa...
