The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Today was a great day for a ride. I still really haven't broken in my PCX. It's almost two months old and still has less than 400 km on it. So the gf and I kitted out and drove 40 km to Bangkok (I now live out in the sticks) to do a bit of shopping. That's the boring part. The good part is coming. J...

That was in Thailand. Easily preventable. All he needed was an amulet on the dash and a spell from the แม่มด (Thailand members should get this one LOL).

No, no, no! Neither my balls nor my death wish is big enough to brave this!

Riding the gauntlet!

The Bangkok Post thanks you.

Looks fun though.

Thailand does have a helmet law, but very few people obey it. Many just buy a 100-200 baht ($3-6) helmet and rest it on their forehead. I'm the odd man out with a DOT certified full-face helmet LOL

Songkran is Thailand's biggest water fight. Ok, it didn't start out that way, but that's what it is now. I stole this picture of a man and three kids riding a PCX through a water battle zone.

^Looks great!

Only thing I know that the PCX and some other scoots need is a 6mm pin, but if you put the pin throught the larger cut-outs rather than the round 6mm hole, I believe larger pin and larger (stronger) locks should fit. Best see if others say why that is not possible. It is a good idea, but what is th...

I am in the land of bikes, here in Beaumont, CA. I have looked everywhere for a disc lock for my PCX. So far, no luck. No one has anything for the PCX. Do any members who live in Southern California know of any shops that carry disc locks for a PCX? Additionally, do any Bangkok members know where I ...

I hear you on thr Mexican food. That's why I go home once a year LOL

It is, and you're right.

I believe 12-13mm chains can be cut with most of the larger domestic bolt cutters, whereas 15mm chains are too big accept for industrial ones. Something like that :) Oh man, you're talking link diameters of half inch or more. I'd need a forklift to move it LOL Seriously, The purpose of the chain is...

Just a thought, The newer Asian model PCX's had a alarm system on it, that was armed when parked. If yours has this. Then the month long storage may be long enough for the alarm system to drain the battery. If not, then nothing to do storage wise, except nail it down, cover it, and hope no one jack...

OK, preparations are complete. It is covered:
And chained to a support pillar:
I hope this does the trick! Thanks for all the advice!

Nope, sorry. No back yard. either I move cement patio furniture to drive into my living room, or I chain it to my house

Have you got a secure place to keep it? What part of the city are you in? It's got a disc lock AND it is chained to a support pillar of my house. And I live in a residential area of Phra Khanong. Nice area too. I thought of driving the bike into my living room, but I got some extremely heavy patio ...

^Great! Thanks
