The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

How does the decompression feature work?

I wonder how fast this guy is going.

Does the AdvancePro outer pulley have a concave face?

I noticed the vibration...
Is it caused by the engine or wheel unbalance?

How about replacing the crankshaft only?

True. The tyres are ok. No complaints from me and I'm a miserable sod Ah but do you have IRC tyres? Michelin and IRC are the same. Why change the formula if you can scrap panels on IRC. Makes no sense to use anything else. What is the point of scrapping panels? Surely it is better to be able to rel...

Is that the shaguar?
Them V6's have come a long way. Mine is one of the first and at times it has been as thirsty as 12mpg.
But I don't cry anymore now that I have my PCX.

How about adding "yuminashi variator with 12g sliders" to the list, if you have the time?

Can one get a reasonable comparison by doing a WOT test on the centre stand?

I look forward to your review.
My sliders have left Taiwan. The real wait starts when they land in SA.

hahahaha.
I still think they look nice.

(I found them when I was looking for larger tyres. 120/80-14 should fit the front and 140/70-14 should fit the rear.)

Is it possible/ok to pushstart the scooter?

No.

Not even upgrading to a Forza?

Thanks for the "how to" guide.

But they are not knobbies.

I believe there are some Vikings on the forum who can advise.

I don't have to pay for labour on my 1st 4 services.
Dunno if that is normal.

I quite like the look of the TCP windshield with hand protection:

Very good. I suppose I could simply go with the 14° outer pulley and keep the stock variator. As Pcxdemon said, that combo should push the belt more towards the max diameter too. What I like about this approach is that the outer pulley is cheap... $23. Outer pulley + sliders has to be the cheapest w...

Can someone please tell me the diameter of the stock variator?

Hi PCXDemon. Thanks for joining the discussion. I have a few questions for you. Sorry... looks like an interrogation but I'm trying to get a clear understanding of the whole picture. 1. Regarding the Yuminashi gear set... You don't actually need to replace the speed sensor, just modify it. Pcxdemon ...
