Planning to purchase PCX here in Thailand. Advice please!

Post by ThaiExpat »

Ok first thanks for this great forum. So much solid info here.
Now about my plan. I have retired and moved to N. Thailand. Mid 60's
about 100kg (215-220lbs) 6'2"
I have admired the PCX for years and have decided to pursue one. My
question is this:
1). Which version on the PCX is the most reliable, best for touring, best
accel, and in general best version of the series?
2). Is the newest Hybrid model a good idea since it has better acceleration and "spunk"?
I hope to tour around the country on this rig.
My normal view is the more "fancy" a model is especially an outlier like the Hybrid will be easier to have issues.

Thanks for your thoughts

OK, let me update this question....Hybrid PCX vs new 2023 160 ABS

Post by ThaiExpat »

Ok, so it would seem obvious the answer to my question about the best PCX for long term use is clearly the newest 160 ABS I am presuming.
My next question is this: Does anyone have any strong opinion about purchasing a Hybrid PCX new 160 instead of standard ABS 160?
Thanks

Ok got an answer from a local expat here in Land of Smiles. stay away from Hybrid model. Much too costly for minimal upgrade in punch. and potential expensive issues down the road.
