Hello! ATPCOP here from Atlanta Georgia. I'm new to your boards but, not new to riding a scooter. I have previously owned a 2011 Ruckus and, 2013 PCX150. I have since sold the Ruckus and have recently traded the 2013 PCX in for a 2017 PCX.

Getting rid of the ruckus and getting the PCX was a really good move !!! The ruckus is cute, but just to slow to be useful anywhere but downtown New York city......

Do you see much difference between the 2013 and 2017 ? How many miles did your 2013 have on it ??

Excellent! I too enjoy the tank bag as part of the PCX ensemble. You probably notice the reduced top end speed on the LED PCX and hows that humpless seat? I like the stock seat just fine, the white bike was a good choice too.

I did notice the reduced top speed. Seems to be about 3mph slower but, I'm sure a new aftermarket variator and weights will fix that issue.

I enjoy the humpless seat too. Really, the US LED version of the PCX appears far more complete and finished aesthetically. This was my primary reason for getting a new one.

Yep, you will lose your pink if you race one unless... you install the NCY kit.

I've previously installed the polini variator in my Honda Ruckus; I assume the process is somewhat similar with the PCX? Also - where did you order from? steadygarage.com keeps popping up for me.

Want fast and more power ???? The Variator will not do much for you, the engine will just run faster all the time, and power increase will be negligible... I would not want my engine screaming all the time, every time I ride, just to go 2 MPH faster on rare occasions....

If you want fast, get something that actually makes a real difference. This is a HUGE difference in acceleration and top speed, has ABS, better in every way...

And also a few grand more.
You obviously don't like the PCX, judging by the comments you leave in PCX threads, so why don't you stick to the Forza section and stop trolling?

As thats a Forza 300cc I'm sure it will go quicker than a 125/150cc pcx, lol
