Re: Honda PCX Manual

Post by Gaikoku »

Hello folks,

As of yesterday I'm a new PCX owner! (first PCX, first scooter, etc.) Just delivered, still has its factory plastic wrapping on the seat and exhaust, etc.

I'm keen to start riding but also to get it right - conscious that with a new bike there may be "before you start" instructions, and of course advice on how to 'ride it in' (eg no cranking the throttle for the first 500km, or such).

Problem is: I'm in Japan. The manual is in Japanese. I don't read Japanese (much). Google translate is hilarious.

Does anyone have a 2015+ Owner's Manual in English, in PDF, to share?

(Also interested in service manual but not until later I suspect/hope...)

Thanks for any help!

(PS. In case interested: it's the model below. Doesn't seem to be available in these colours for European/US market.)

Welcome! :D very interesting color combination red/white havent seen that before.

Unfortunately no one has taken the LED model PCX to PDF form yet.

I see Helminc has sold out again as fast as I posted they were available two days ago. Please click on the link and sign up for notification at Helminc. Get on the waiting list even if you don't buy from them to help us keep pushing for more LED PCX service manuals.

Get someone from the states to buy the 42.00 book and have it shipped to you... might be least expensive way.

Bro that's not a hard copy shipment it's the scanned version of LED PCX we've been looking for! YOU ARE THE BEST... Immediately bought that :lol:

Did you notice what it says... WOOT! Very curious how this will be sent to me since not email through ebay. Somebody is working the system LOL.
DIGITAL VERSION - you will not receive a paper copy or anything via mail. You will receive a link with PDF file within 24 hours.

I will send you your requested 2011-2013 link for PDF right away... check your forum message box.

THANK YOU!

If you are not needing it right now give this a few days and we will have it PDF for all models & members. Should be some happy sorts across the pond soon since they've been getting ripped off for years over service manuals. PLUS more D.Y.I. rather than taking it up the pooper to save your warranty only to get a 2-300.00 oil change at 600 miles. Go spank the wife for me :D

This looks like great news! Anyone know how much read-across there is between 125cc and 150cc post-2015 PCX models? (or if it varies e.g. by continent?)

Homie, many thanks for the pointers. So there's not even an Owner's Manual available in digital format for the LED PCX? (I've been Googling, not found anything...)

Not sure I know what to do with a Service Manual yet (not least because living in a Tokyo apartment means I have no room to keep much hardware for servicing...) - but very interested in that if a PDF is available? :)

Sorry, just missed this. Thanks very much - it's a thing of beauty! Especially appreciate that it's searchable (so was scanned with OCR.) Now to find a place to print all 400+ pages...

(Now to just find an English language owner's manual for LED PCXs ... will update if i find anything)

The Owners Manual's are small enough to be attached and do not violate forum rules to do so. Here is your LED PCX parts catalog if you don't have it already. Please make sure I notice the post if you do find a digital LED PCX owners manual.

For anyone wondering how to search within the new SM - I opened it in Adobe Acrobat/PDF viewer (the free one) and used the search box. Although Ctrl-F should work in your browser too (I think). In Adobe you can also see the whole structure laid out in bookmarks. (should be a bar on the LHS with a bookmark icon on it.)

The hunt for an LED PCX OM continues. Looks like Honda might have shut down every version online after 2012 - I've checked every link Google throws up (apart from obvious clickbait/probable scam, "enter your credit card number to verify" type sites, which I haven't bothered with for obvious reasons). The only exception - weirdly, frustratingly, and ironically for me - is the Japanese OM, which you can download for free from Honda's Japanese site!

PS to note, I can't send PMs yet apparently - too new. Will keep posting and wait for that to unlock...

Admin reports you need 15 posts before you can send/read private messages and there is nothing they can do to change that... goofy. Thanks for following up on the (how to open with OCR capability for the PDF) Apparently I need that better version of Adobe Acrobat or something because scrolling through 400 pages isn't going to work for me when my hard copy is sitting on the table 8)

Nothing really beats a hard copy when working on the bike especially doing the valve clearance adjustment. There are 14 sections you need to follow in sequence backwards through the SM to do the job by the book. Highlighting and using post-it tags becomes critical and I don't see how you can work with digital documents very easily for the heavy stuff. So maybe print it out and make your own binder?

Hello! My girlfriend just bought a new 2017 PCX150 in blue--beautiful! She drove it all the way home (35 miles) no problem, right out of the box. (She's the only one to put miles on it, I'm so happy for her!)

Anyway, if someone would PM me the link to the Service Manual I'd appreciate it. After reading the expected miles thread and using Google to see how the drive system works it looks like we could do all of the maintenance work ourselves, and the manual would help not only for the proper procedures, but the torque specs. (I'll print it and put it in a binder, no problem.)

Thanks,
Hedge
