Re: crashed the bike today

xixon, this really stinks. So...was the car driver pulling onto "your" road from another road (or lot, or whatever), then suddenly switched lanes? Just trying to get a feel for yet another thing to watch out for. (Okay, technically, we all probably watch for cars pulling out anyway, but t...

Re: crashed the bike today

I guess almost any accident is preventable, so they say, but this kid went from being parked to the right lane then straight to the left lane all in one motion....just never seen it coming.

I'm a Geordie so just a t-shirt for me in all weathers your location reads centre of the universe, so I assumed you were in Toronto...LOL I worked in New Castle and could not believe how the guys would wear a t-shirt, and it was cold as hell (and I'm Canadian, so we know cold) You probably noticed ...

Re: I just bought a PCX

Welcome xixon - I too am a new member. I test rode a used '13 PCX before I got my '15 and I was expecting horrible things from the hump from what I had read but I actually didn't mind it since it gives you something to push back against. The '15 with the ridge instead of the hump is not necessarily...

Re: I just bought a PCX

thanks Honker for the feedback....now that you mentioned it, I never seen a filter listed on the bill, which I thought was strange, now I know why.

I'm 6'4", so the extra room on the seat is appealing, I'll be sure to check out what others have done

cheers
