Re: Have you got the hump?

For those of you fed up with the PCX seat hump, try this Thai site where I bought my new seat from. With postage and customs I paid about £125. What a difference. I can now sit back and cruise. Doesn't affect the idle stop switch either unless you're sitting way back. The seat (a genuine PCX seat) ...

Re: How to protect my scooter over winter?

Well, after a few days of debate (read whining and begging), my wife is allowing me to bring the scooter inside the house for the winter. It'll have a nice warm home in the laundry room. I'm still going to pick up an optimate 3 or 4, and hook it up once a week or so just to make sure the battery is ...

Re: How to protect my scooter over winter?

I will be storing my scooter in our shed this winter. Since Idaho winters are nasty, there really is no chance for me to take it out for a spin at any time. If I start it up once a week and let it idle for 10 minutes, will that do?

Re: Hello, my name is Ozzy, I am from Ohio, got PCX 150 in A

I suggest you ask Powerbypcx before you order, to double check! I believe there is a difference between stock 125 and 150 seats but dont know that it would affect aftermarket seats. Got an email reply from the company about the seat they are selling: "Yes of course all the seat in the website ...

Re: My new PCX 150!

The hump hasn't been an issue so far, then again, I've only driven it the 3 miles back from the dealer so far. My wife won't let me ride it again until my helmet arrives on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Too tall to ride a pcx 150 without looking like a freak?

I am in the market to purchase a honda scooter. It's down to the PCX150 and the SH150i. I prefer the styling of the pcx, but am a bit worried that my 6'2" frame will look out of place on it. I say that because after doing a search on these forums under "height", it appears that most r...
