trip down south on the PCX150

Post by bigdick »

packed up the scoot, fully loaded. leaving early tomorrow morning with a couple mates.

The Chinese 51L topbox on the back is a treat. fits all the cooking equipment including a full size pan and pots, gas cooker plus backpack with shoes etc.

I like to lean back on all the gear, hence two pillows ;)

Topbox on the back is a treat or a threat depending on if you complied with the recall on the base plate.

Pillows are a nice touch... WILDS HOGS!

poor scooter took a thrashing. we hit some 4wd tracks. lost the centre stand spring so it was zip tied to the drive case to keep up.

the top box also fell off after hitting a huge pot hole, but luckily the rack is okay.

i'm probably gonna get a proper dirtbike later this year.. WR250F?

WR250R is the go if you have deep pockets, but I'm partial to the new 2017 Honda CRF250L(ABS).
Or, there is the Kwak Versys-X 300. A bit soft compared to the other too, though. The tyres won't get you far, either...
Or mod a KLR650 and go anywhere with a huge 22L tank. You just need to derestrict, carb and pipe it to go alright.

So did your poor little PCX give you a sad look while you were at that gas station? It does look pathetic. Remember that saying about not bringing a knife to a gun fight? Well, here is a case of bringing a city scooter to a back woods road. Just don't.... :-(

Never let it be said that life isn't full of surprises! Lookie what you did!
(And with a bit of strawberry flare) :P

I hate to ask bigdick (but I will :D ) Why did ye Take yer Weee Widdle White one "loaded" up 8) into the muck n mire? Was it for the sake of knowing She can duit? (Place emoticon "PCX face" here with tongue sticking out). Ha! Did it! and now on order is a duly earned bubbly bath with in-the-groove(s) detailing. Spare no expense or energy. Well deserved.
and.....how did you fare sir? Bit on the mucky side as well? Bubbly for you? Shout out to wife :lol:

Dirt bike on the horizon. Stay focused. See it?
(if for nothing else, I had dirty fun with this thread. So thank you errr...bigdick! :lol: )

Sights set on a CRF250L in a few months.
I took the poor scooter through it cause it's all I had. I love getting dirty and I can't help it. No real regrets. I bought a new centrestand spring for $4. It's still muddy after washing it though.

You'se should've seen the puddles I pushed this through.. I had to keep the speed up so it wouldn't suck the shit into the airbox

Note the scoot will burn some oil on the freeway...
