Re: Video How To: How to change tire at home

I watched all the videos of how to do this at home when I put a new rear tire on my XMAX recently, and realized I’d be paying more for all the stuff than just taking the tire and wheel down to my local dealer . They charged me $45 for the change… I was literally in and out of the dealership in 30 mi...

Re: Is the PCX160 even being sold in the States?

I hate this site because you can’t edit… The bottom line is a 2019 or 2020 is about the same top speed as a 21 or 22… stock bikes without messing with the roller variator etc. etc.

Re: Is the PCX160 even being sold in the States?

We’ve been over this before the PCX 160 isn’t any faster than 150… 2 valve versus four valve versus 150 versus 160 it doesn’t matter it may be a mile or two more but nothing that matters. There is a post here by somebody who was telling all the difference and he was shut down several times by people...

Re: An OEM belt lasts 10,000 miles on the dot. How long do NCY rollers last before needing to be replaced??

To each his own, I had the PCX I now have an X max 300, and I just sold my CTX 700. The X max doesn’t feel any heavier than my PCX moving it around the garage, and riding it. Putting it up on the center stand feels exactly the same as my PCX…And the 700 felt much heavier in all respects.

Nobody is compromising those specs… All the mods here are just additions to baggage, cell phones etc. nobody’s really messing with the PCX engine.

Re: Universal Emergency Key for every PCX?

Seriously, you think somebody is gonna be carrying this type of counterfeit adapter to get into your bike?

Re: New PCX 160 - is it getting smoother over time?

You will get some people saying the shocks are OK, I thought they were complete crap …/every speed bump that I hit went straight up through my back. There are many reasonable sets of shocks you can buy in Thailand that will solve your problem the YSS G series is a good selection. https://bikerzbits....

Don’t try to make paint repairs on a scooter, the already painted replacement is super cheap, replace the panel.

Re: 2013 vs 2015 buying decisions

I would take the 15… a 13 with only that might many miles on it means it’s been sitting rotting, , which means that they’re can be a lot wrong with it unless it’s been kept inside in a pristine heated garage. The 15 also is a major revision in the line versus a3 13.

Re: Is changing final drive oil every 2 years really necessary?

You’re not wrong, the rear end of a scooter, as long as the seals are good is under no real heat or compression, every time I change the oil it comes out looking exactly like it it was when I put it in. That being said, it’s so easy, I change it every year or so while I’m doing other oil changes.

Re: HELP! Coolant Drain Plug snapped off inside the hole

If you don’t have an electric drill it means your tools are relatively sparse. Take it to a body shop or an auto repair place and they can have it out in 30 seconds with an EZ out tool. Order a new plug before you take this one out.

Re: Coolant / Final Drive Oil

You can use any 10W-30 automotive oil in the rear end, there’s very little pressure and no combustion so it lasts forever… Don’t overthink this.

Re: Evening all! New forza 300 owner incoming!!

Look into it wind deflector that mounts on the top edge , Puig makes a good one on Amazon, it will send the wind over your helmet, and you can take it off when you’re running around town. I think the super big windshields just look bad on a scooter. Makes them look top heavy

Re: ok love the scooter but do you have a CAR?

I love anything with wheels, I’ve never understood the hate that some scooter people have toward cars, it’s than the idiots that drive them, not the vehicles themselves….. I have a new 2021 BMW X2 m35i that’s just amazing… 320 hp AWD, It’s one of the most fun cars I’ve ever driven.
