Re: New PCX 150 ordered UK

Re: New PCX 150 ordered UK

Holly is the CBR's name yes :D

The PCX was sourced from Italy, and is full euro 2015 spec I believe. So exactly as you say, a 125 with a a cc increase.

Next mod will be proper rim tapes I think.

Re: New PCX 150 ordered UK

150 miles covered in and around the city. Impressed with how easy it is to ride, great lighting in all respects from the LED's. Stop start is exactly as it says, a useful feature if only for the 5 minutes peace at the railway crossing. Nippy enough to leave everything you've filtered past, dead at t...

Re: New PCX 150 ordered UK

£2500 plus delivery, so the same as main Honda dealer price for a 125 version.

I've got it insured via mce on my CBR policy for £120, the 125 is a tenner less !!

134mpg iceman. ..impressive! !

New PCX 150 ordered UK

Hello fellow PCX'ers, John here. Silver PCX 150 ordered via superbikeshop in Aylesbury. Honda only stock the 125 version here in the UK, and as I have a full licence, I thought I'd be ok with the extra 2 bhp :D Just waiting on shipping and registration, then the little Honda will join my 2011 CBR600...
