The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

You’re fine as long as it’s not below the minimum line when the engine is cold. If you over fill it, the excess will just expand out the overflow tube when the engine gets hot - no problem.

I think all that conspiracy to intentionally dream up the idea, plan it, design it, build it, sell it, and then deny all knowledge that their EFI system was programmed to give false pollution readings during inspections was all a hoax. Doesn't matter that people admitted it, or that international te...

I just need the right tool to pull the broken one out.

I'm crossing my fingers that there's just some parts left for me to grip with a pliers or something..

If there’s any stud still there to grip on, first get some “Kroil” spray to soak the stud threads with several times before you try to back it out. If there’s not, Hit it with Kroil, get a reverse drill bit to Drill the hole for the extractor. Lots of times, the reverse torque will back out the stud...

That's surely doable?

Thanks for that - the other sources charge much more !!

Nice video- I wish there were a replacement seat that had a reasonable shipping cost, the ones I’ve seen to resolve the hump were reasonably priced but the shipping was waaay high.

I've read where the 2020 model has a modified seat - I assume that means the hump is moved back a bit since that's the main issue with earlier model seats. Does anyone know if the 2020 will fit any earlier models? If someone has a 2020, I can send measurements for front bolt holes, rear lock lever, ...

Yeah ..... but can he cure the knocking sound in that PCX ???

The original plug looks either lean or a bit of bad spark timing. Correct would be grey not white, no blistering & less electrode erosion - that plug has both. The wetness isn’t necessarily oil could be rich which of course conflicts with lean. This is above my competence grade ( I stress this f...

How about we try This “?” Order a cooler or hotter spark plug “?” Try that.. Now, which way does one go for a spark knock? Cooler?? Give me your wisdom PCX Forum members.. If you want to go that direction- instead just drain the PCX fuel and put it in your car. Then go to a gas station that sells h...

Lapeer Honda says they have my parts Haven’t been to Lapeer in 6yrs or so, so taking the wife out to dinner in Lapeer.. Grabbing another quart of HP4m, just in case the injector does not solve the problem, and mixing up a fresh batch of 20-30% Petron Plus mixed oil.. Been beautiful here in Michigan...

IF my cam chain jumped a tooth because of a weak tensioner setting THEN exhaust could/may be present during combustion, which overheats causing spark knock, or a too far advanced spark to valve timing.. Yes No “?” Anyone? I'd say no. Wouldn't skip a tooth, at least I've never heard of a loose tensi...

Super Clean fresh fuel is in.. Let it idle for 5min, then shut it off for about 15min Fired it up and went for a 10mph ride for a mile or so around our sub, this thing really Sips the gas so, i know it’s going to take a bit for Real fuel to be flowing solid. Punched it a couple of times to push fue...

Two months ago I noticed that my 2013 PCX150 scooter gas tank was rusting horribly.

I thought my PCX fuel tank was made of some sort of plastic or synthetic material. At least it looks that way when I watch the fuel level as I gas-up.

Change the oil, spark plug, air filter, and open the case to look at the dry rot cracked drive belt. Case air vent plugged with grass, cleaned that all up and flowing air again.. ordered a belt and Dr Pulley 14g slides figuring the rollers are probably shot at 13k A few worthless thoughts; 1) If yo...

Could be you have cleaned the connections by removing them and replacing. Earth a bit dirty?

you you wrote:Kawasaki KE175 B3 for me please.

Great bike. You, were the earlier models the ones with fuel tanks prone to splitting / leaking at the center seam, or was that a different bike I'm thinking about ?

I 'd like to see acceleration results.

A 500cc Triumph twin from mid 60's to early 70's. Low pipe, high pipe, doesn't matter, although a single carb would be preferred. If you want a fantastic read about a MC journey, try this.
