Re: Crashed today

Sorry about your PCX nova - I'm glad to hear you escaped unscathed at least.

This vid sums up how I feel whenever I see a new crash thread start up - it seems like there are more crash threads here than on the old Ninja 300 forum I used to frequent :(

Re: On the choice of PCX colors

Thank everyone's reply,I have one more question:New 2016 PCX,What month sales? I have no idea when they'll be available in China but I did see this gray 2016 PCX 150 at a dealer in Orlando where I snapped this pic on September 16th, when I returned a couple days later they had a newly arrived red '...

Re: Where was your PCX assembled?

Don't think Honda publicizes the origin of any product it makes. Of course they do! It only took me a few seconds to find several examples on Honda's official press page, see examples below. They tend to be very proud in publicizing their global manufacturing prowess - but yet they seem to be stran...

Re: Couple of vids featuring my new 2015 PCX 150

My 1st PCX vid has hit over 400 views on YouTube! There must be a lot of people searching for info on the PCX because that's a record for any of my lame-O vids :D I'll repost them below now that I know how to properly embed them - didn't know how to do it until recently :) 2015 Honda PCX 150 Review ...

Re: Where was your PCX assembled?

enjoy the irony. Like the only country ever to use nuclear weapons invading and destroying another country because they were alleged to have weapons of mass destruction which were never found? All the while the country doing the invading and destroying holds the largest arsenal of wmd anywhere on t...

Re: Steel Gray saying "Hey!"

She looks great Wingscribe - enjoy! That would have been my color choice too had white not been available. I was lucky that my dealer had black and white '15s and red and gray '16s that I could compare side by side. I was torn between the gray '16 and the white '15 and ultimately chose the white but...

Re: Where was your PCX assembled?

So I figured I'd start this poll to see how popular the Vietnamese PCXs are :D Huh? It's not a popularity contest. It's not like you get to choose the country that Honda decides to manufacture them in. I'm just curious as to the number of Thai v. Vietnamese assembled PCXs. I have never seen any sor...

Re: Where was your PCX assembled?

Hmmm...the vote is 3-3 so far so I guess having a Vietnamese PCX isn't that unusual.

Re: Is my parking brake broken?

It should be made clear to newbies on the forum, not all models have the parking brake. The Australian version of the PCX doesn't have one, and other countries also. Thanks - this helps confirm to me what I sort of suspected - it's a totally unnecessary "feature" that I won't waste my tim...

Re: crash!!

That sounds like good advice from Fish - except I'd recommend an old S2000 instead to keep it in the Honda family :) I hope your wife can fully recover Mel - I feel your pain as I suffered a badly broken leg myself 2 years ago and it took a long time to fully recover. Good luck to you both.

Re: Is my parking brake broken?

The PCX has a handbrake? Well sort of - I'm actually referring in this post to what Honda technically calls the "Rear Brake Lock" which is activated by the "Brake Lock Knob" located below the glove compartment. The Owner's Manual doesn't talk about it much - I get the impression...

Where was your PCX assembled?

I thought all PCXs were assembled in Thailand but my 2015 PCX 150 says it was made in Vietnam January of 2015. So I figured I'd start this poll to see how popular the Vietnamese PCXs are :D

Is my parking brake broken?

I can't get it to work. The button seems to engage when I pull it out but the wheels still seem to roll freely. There's nothing really in the owner's manual about the parking brake other than I think it said hold the left brake lever when you engage it? Fortunately I have no hills where I park but t...

Re: Anyone ride one-up on pillion?

Yes, I switch back and forth if my back gets tired, but I leave my feet in the original position! I hate the seat valley, it makes me slouch from sitting so far forward! Yeah I was riding as you describe for awhile too but having my feet on the passenger pegs was even more comfortable for me. I may...

Re: Anyone ride one-up on pillion?

heh, well, you're going to put more wear and tear on the back end over time, but my best friend has a 2010 Elite 110 and that's where he sits on it. He's 6'2" and has orangutan arms, so it works for him, but it does put more weight directly over the back tire which wears down pretty quickly on...
