PCX versatility

Post by honkerman »

One of the things I love about my PCX (and scooters in general) is it's versatility. It was developed in Thailand, and it works well for multiple different scenarios. It's a tough little beast. I take it fishing, for light shopping, long distance traveling, and just yesterday; hunting. It's not the first time I've used a scooter to go hunting, and hopefully will not be the last. I made a motovlog, probably my last ride for a while, and will link it, but wanted to start a thread on how versatile these little beasties can be. if you have an interesting story, I'd love to hear it.

Only thing I do not like is the cumbersome plastics - if they came off easily and you had access to the engine it would be great.

I treat mine as a workhorse. I've done day trips of several hundred miles - used it as "dad's taxi" for daughter (inc out of town pickup) - use it for delivering things for clients (can strap a pretty big box on the back if I take off the soft box (the grab rail is a good anchor point for ratchet strops).

Most of the time there's a way to get everything on it - even if that way is to some times put everything in a pack on my back (it rests on the seat if I loosen the straps).

Right now mine just sits in the garage looking beautiful, as usual. :D ...but then, it has been storming a lot lately. We keep getting the remains of hurricanes and tropical storms... :(
