No, but I'd be glad to if you guys need one. I tied them into my circuit for the 12v outlet, and added a switch for them on the handlebars.

GREAT PHOTO...................ONCE AGAIN!! and,
LOOK AT MADDIE! HOW CUTE IS THAT?! Look where ya wanna go! I'll be darn!
Those are Heavenly fog lights! Stock beams certainly pale next to them. I LIKE! Great addition!
I'm now sensing another "How To" coming on...and Strong 8)
Yeah, yeah...I'm liking the new Hat too! Sharp. Guess the HJC is visiting the closet for awhile heh? We know, White Rocks! ;)

Did I have to sell the scoot? Nah, but I did. Opportunity knocked at the time I was thinking about the New 2015 model. Boom! Decision made. Contact made. Sold! To a very nice forum member, 6FtMach1Girl. Now she has 2 PCX's! Wow!
Now I'm scoot free :( but looking around at a few that have peeked my interest. I sent out a few emails, one to a Honda Dealership, the other to Honda's website's asking them to let me know when the 2015 arrives. Also want to check other breeds, like the 200 burger...... (jus looking :D )
I failed at finding the Burger and the New PCX is still prepping for the Honda cruise ship ;)
I'm tossing out pics below of the full house of bikes I saw this past Monday. Talk about Stock? Couldn't walk between them! Spent two hours there trying on leather jackets, helmets, & gloves. What did I buy? ZIP! Pity

It's a Bilt -- http://www.cyclegear.com/CycleGear/Tour ... _200897_21

If the above isn't on sale in your area, wait. It goes on sale for $99 a few times a year.

Negative. I wired them together above the forks and ran the negative through inline switch on the handlebars, connecting the negative lead and the positive lead in parallel with the 12v outlet I installed in the glovebox. It only took 20 mins or so. :D

The 3 of us haven't been together for over a year. But today, we all got to ride together. A beautiful day for a ride - sunny and perfect temp. We rode along some country roads. After turning on to one road, we encountered 2 loose horses :o Fortunately they decided to go back home. Then we rode to our Dad's home (on dirt road) to reminisce for a bit. Met Mom at a restaurant for lunch, then a long nice ride home (no loose horses thank goodness)!! Part of the route was roads my Dad would ride to commute on his bike to his job teaching school, and even some roads where he rode with me as a passenger - oh the memories :)

A little hard to compare the 125 to my 150, given the different riding conditions between states. Southeast Louisiana is all flat and not many turns, compared with the twisty hilly potholed roads of PA. Overall the 125 did well, maybe just not quite as much "oomph" over 35. Of course, I was trying to keep up with the Victory and the XR :lol:

Wish I had a gopro camera. I thought days this perfect were only in my dreams :D

Yeah, yeah, yeah....all your family clan had fun in the sun. Everybody looks happy, bikes too :? But I think the White one misses me :cry: Tell me it's so, make my day :D

Here are a few pics we took yesterday, it turned out to be a successful drive/shooting trip! Sadly, we were on 4 wheels, not two, as I was on call and can't hear the pager/phone on my bike.
