We think she's a Jack mix. She's a good girl -- we rescued her 4 years ago from the Cobb County Animal Shelter.

She likes to ride with me:

She is sooo cute! We got one of our Jack Russell's at Animal Control 6 years ago. Mine loves riding g in the crate but I doubt that he would ride well on the bike. He would probably want to jump off and explore every time I stopped. By the way, what is the picture restriction for adding pictures? I have tried several times with no luck. I spent most of my online time on my tablet so I even went so far as to take the pictures with the tablet's camera. Still no luck getting it to upload.

The forum will allow posting of images up to 1080p, under 10MB in size. If the upload fails, your image size is too large, and needs resized.

OK, I'm going to try to load a picture file to see if I can get it to go from my main computer. Attached is a picture of 2 of my 3 Jack Russell's. The one standing has ridden in his crate behind me and loves it. That is Butch (yes, his name is Butch Cassidy. We had to put down his cohort in crime, Sundance Kid.)

I guess it didn't work. Well, I have made it smaller, so I'll try again.

Oh yes let's have a dog thread!!!

My Staffie (staffordshire bull terrier) is lying between my between my feet at the moment. She is tiny not much bigger than maddiedog I guess. Once in a lifetime dogs.

For the sake of balance we should also have a cat thread. I have to say this as I can't type this properly because I've got a stupid kitten clawing my chest and rubbing its dribble face on my chin

Yuk (I'm enjoying it really :) )

She's on a Givi T455. It was discontinued, sadly. Luckily though there are new options that look just as good. See here: http://hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=913&p=13574

Thanks for the info. My little buddy likes to ride on the golf cart and yard tractor so I am hoping he will like the scooter also.

I don't know if anyone is interested, but I took someones advice and ordered a service manual for a 150 and it has arrived. it was a steal. I now know how to do a few things on the bike. Here is a small sample of the manual, if anyone is interested.

I bought mine from Ebay and although it was a bit expensive compared to what you guys are talking about, I reckon it's worth it having the knowledge that you can do anything the dealer can. It'd be a good selling tool when it comes to selling the scooter way down the track.

Thanks Mel46. That's a useful extract from the service manual. Looks like it's definitely on my shopping list now!

If you wonder about the part names and how useful it is to know what each panel is called when ordering, go to BikeBandit.com to see the parts you may want to replace and what they are called.

Hope this helps. I also found out that the colors and panel parts are the same for 2011 and 2013 PCX models.

We have a red 2013 and have to replace one of the panels. We ordered one for a 2011 and it matches nicely.
