The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

30 years ago when i was living in England my beloved Honda 500T was stolen and later found burnt out only 5 miles away. Police reckoned it had been used for hill climbing racing. Cant imagine the PCX being used for that but plenty of other reasons why low life would want to steal them.

http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8154/7193483780_ef063cbeca_z.jpg IMG_0118 by TazPCX , on Flickr I was getting some helmet noise that I thought I would see if I could reduce. The noise is mainly my badly fitting visor in the Shark helmet I have that is renowned for being noisy. Taping the gap between ...

Here is the pic of my temporary patch to the windscreen gap: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8154/7193483780_ef063cbeca_z.jpg IMG_0118 by TazPCX , on Flickr Helmet noise has been reduced a little but now I am too warm so will remove the tape before summer comes back :) Havent had the opportunity to go...

Ive just taped over the gap in the front of my Ermax +25 to see the affect now I am coming up to winter. I think its the same gap on the stock windscreen too, about 2 inches wide by 10 inches across above the headlights. I was getting helmet noise before and that seems reduced now. Will go home on a...

The PCX is fine in the rain; it comes down to the rider and how you ride. Mine has stock tires and I ride in any weather in sailing boots rather than bike boots. I quite enjoy it but have been riding motorbikes for 20 years.

Austin, I agree. High beam is also going to dazzle the internal mirror of cars and mirrors of other bikes when behind them. I just think its a big no no. And if you've got a black or silver PCX that camoflages with the road color, that was your choice when you bought it. I've got white and hear you ...

Hi Dave
take those corners slow to start off with...

after getting my seat modified (hump removed) I added a couple of strips of thin foam insulating tape to get the under seat microswitch to behave itself.

also not spuwing out fumes (carbon monoxide etc) when you dont need to. But I must admit i turn mine off if I am just in stop start traffic where it would othrwise be stopping just for a couple of seconds.

This is gn2 on his motorbike when its 2 degrees:

but for the rest of us a tall windscreen is a must. The small ermax is only good for looks wont keep the wind off you. If you go ermax go the +25.

Im happy with my ermax +25 (tallest version). Keeps all wind off my chest, gives me a higher top speed and looks OK. Its not as tall as the tall givi but Im 193cm tall and Im satisfied. I posted pics elsewhere on this forum but if you cant find them let me know and I will repost.

Either the electrons run down the side stand to drain out to the road from the battery...or your dealer is full of shiite! I suspect the latter!

and I wont be paying 10000 scottish pounds for a beemer scooter!

Hey Nobody
I bought off eBay a Windjammer 2 which attaches to the base of a full face helmet and is neoprene. It seals around your neck and cuts down helmet noise. Also keeps the cold off your chin!

i thought UK was in Drought??

So half the price of the new Beemer Scooter. Cant wait to see one. Looks like my PCX with its tall Ermax screen. Wish the mirrors were on the fairing though and not on the handlebars. Wonder if you have to pay extra for a centre stand like Honda are starting to do

Hi Cascanciu from Hobart Australia where we get more sunlight than Queensland, though much colder. Wish I could have had siestas the last 2 days after 2 big work lunches, you are so lucky

nice bike. The 500 would compliment my white pcx nicele. Wonder if the seat hump can move, for us tall riders. I have trouble sitting on Burgman 650 with knees almost touching the fairings.

no top box if I can help it. Though its getting towards winter here now and sometimes struggle to stow gear below seat.

just ride assuming no cars can see you so you have a plan B if they swerve towards you. And be careful of the eyeball trick. I used to assume if the driver is looking towards you so you can see their eyeballs then they can see you. Worked until I got hit by a left hand drive car from europe but in L...
