I think it was the LED headlight bulbs that I added that caused it, they had eight LEDs per bulb. Which ones did you use?
Also, good to hear that it was only on my end.

pcx888,

What was the bulb type you used for your main beams? The standard for 2011 - 2013 is HS5, which no longer comes in LED form. I would love to change mine to LED but I would have to change the base, plus find bulbs that fit in the wattage recommended (35/30).
Currently own:
Red 2013 Honda PCX150

Givi tall windshield & tailbox - Lots of extra lights
Custom seat from Thailand - Bad Boy Airhorn
Takegawa Lowering Shocks - Michelin City Grip Tires
Headlight assy upgraded to LEDs w/HS5 main bulbs
NCY variator, drive face, and rollers
