PCX 2012 needs some work

Post by joaosol123 »

Hi Everyone,

About six months ago I crashed my 2012 PCX125 :( totally wrecked it but the next day I started my adventure of purchasing a whole array of new parts so I could get my baby resurrected.
Just finished buying all the new parts and was hoping if you guys know where can a guy purchase a service manual for my bike. :D

Much appreciated! I'll post up some photos of the makeover!

tip: If you're in Portugal, don't bother to buy parts from the dealers here. Just order them at a fraction of the price from thailand. I think I saved about 1000€

Thanks

So you're in Portugal.

Maybe they have something in Brazil which is Portuguese, there are service manuals in EN and FR and if you can't wait get a cyclepedia subscription and view on your tablet/ smartphone while doing. https://www.cyclepedia.com/

PS: all others with LED: don't waste your money on cyclepedia! not good enough for LEDs models, waste of money...

joaosol123,

I believe that the rules for the forum say that you can't send and receive private messages until you have at least 15 posts. Keep that in mind if you would like to discuss getting a manual (pdf) without running into copyright conflicts.

If you read my initial post, I was asking just that.

Is a 2012 version the same as a 2011? In the United States there was no 2012 version. It went from 2011 125cc version to 2013 150cc version.

I assume from your post that you are in Portugal. Please go into your profile and add it so that in the future we can just look at your post to see where you are. It helps us to help you. Also, are you are looking for a service manual in Portuguese? That might be a tough one.

The 2012 is actually the same model as the 2011. Not looking for a Portuguese version, that might be asking too much :lol:

Gonna add my country to my profile right now, thanks for the tip! I'll just leave my email here, just in case. :)

Did you order the parts from Europe for the makeover or from Thailand?
