Exhausts
This is my first post on here but I've been looking around for a while.
So im running 2011 125 black all standard expect the Air Filter which is a:
http://japan.webike.net/products/21747127.html
Which is nice is makes the bike sound nicer and look better of course, it also gives a little bit more acceleration
I've just brought a new exhaust which is :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/271734593072?_t ... EBIDX%3AIT
I was wondering if anyone else has fitted one and how it effects the bikes performance, sound and so on
If you have it would be nice to see a video of some sort
And even if you haven't its always nice to see what other people have fitted so please all share
PS: The bike is limited to 65 is there anyway I can change this
would fitting a aftermarket variator and lighter rollers help at all ?

I guess so but I just want to be sure before I actually change anything with the variator

Re: Exhausts
Lighter rollers increase acceleration. Too light, and you'll lose top speed(because the weights can't push the belt out all the way).
Variator can affect acceleration, but mostly determines top speed(your gearing).
The exhaust should give you a small bump up in power. Can't say what the noise level is like since I haven't used that particular one myself, but I doubt it'll be higher than a stock sport bike exhaust.

Thanks what rollers would you recommend there's a lot of talk between 10grams and 13gramsValiant wrote:Lighter rollers increase acceleration. Too light, and you'll lose top speed(because the weights can't push the belt out all the way).

Im not to bothered about top speed to be fair would be nice to hit 70 top end im happy with that
But im also aiming to be able to get the bike popping would be nice if I could wheelie the bike that's more of my main goal

Re: Exhausts
I had pretty good luck with 13g. Would depend on your weight though. If you're not concerned with top speed, you could go with 10g. A tachometer would help a lot with seeing where you are on the weights.
Wheelie with the PCX is going to be about technique, as there is an electronic limiter that prevents a hard launch. You could use stiffer clutch springs so the clutch engages at high rpms(maybe 5000+), but IMO trying to do that is sort of pointless with the PCX.
The fairings are plastic, so even a light drop would crack a few. Tweaking your clutch engagement that high would make it very jerky when you're trying to move around the city.
If you just want to pop wheelies, why not get a dual-sport?

I was going to get a dual sport but I needed to get something quick, to get to and from my new job and the pcx just looked amazing and I got it at a really good price
I wont play with the clutch yet I will wait for the exhaust and then play with the rollers see how it plays out

You can do slightly better by lifting your bum of the seat and when the bike accelerates hold onto the bars. It will still be slightly rubbish and people will be irritated or laugh at you but a wheelie is a wheelie.
Grip the bike with your knees when it comes up

Ficon2 makes no difference, it's all in the vario tuning.Valiant wrote:Does the FiCon2 unit eliminate the takeoff delay?
This was a Takegawa vario with .6mm washer.
