For anyone who likes the hump and wants to get it waterproofed, sugru works !

I ride on average every second day, mostly city riding with the occasional long haul (100+ miles), I dont think its a seat sensor thing tho, I may be wrong on that but I dont think so...I'll try trigg123's idea, thanks for that!, and then just continue without idle stop until its time for a new batt...

Several times now I've been at a set of lights and the idle stop has failed, it's over two years old now and this has happened 4 or 5 times.. today was the worst tho as the bike wouldnt start after the incident (normally it does) after 15 mins I came back and it started, however as my helmet was sti...

Jason Bourne he's not. Watch it until the very end.

OMG

that made me laugh out loud! I was thinking what the heck is going to happen at the end!?...surely not that!

what does one call a PCX ? I hate calling it a scooter or god forbid a moped, it just conjurs up images like this http://www.nohoscooters.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/1983-honda-aero-50cc-SN000167-540x405.jpg I dont feel comfortable saying its a motorbike either as I'd probably be seen as a l...

After reading a review of the 150 yesterday I have to say I'm rather peeved at only having the 125...

I went for the mid size Ermax...

I always ignore recommended max weights, they're always lower than whats possible just to cover warranty and the like, having said that I usually put heavy items (milk etc) under the seat or in a rucksack and fill the topbox up with lighter items.

What's a dollar worth these days ?

It used to be backed by silver, now its just a trick enslaving everyone but JPMorgan etc into debt

The seat cover is a good idea but I'd prefer to waterproof it, I'm fairly confident of sealing the seat with sugru (sugru.com) its a waterproof self setting rubber with some 'give', also heat and cold proof.

But yes Honda should sort it out for new models

I would go for the full hump-ectomy but I quite like the look of the hump and also the fact that you cant slide back....not to mention the cost too!

Finally I've worked out why the hump keeps producing water, the stitching has come away at the front where the water collects, this put the sponge part in direct contact with the water and its been soaking it up for months! If it ever dries out then it'll need to be sealed up, after that some self s...

I want a pair of Klim Caldera Gloves, a bit expensive tho

I wonder if they managed to make a soggless seat hump yet

Had a slow puncture on the rear once. fortunately the tread was almost done so it was time for a new tyre anyway.

what do they call it "wet lettuce green" ?

I'd only heard of it last week via the BBC's 'The culture show', it occured to me today to use it to seal the hump!

theres plenty of youtube videos of happy customers using it for all sorts

this one probably best describes it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fOSo_EN-y4

This cool stuff is like plasticine which you can mould to whatever shape you want, it cures at room temperature over 24hours after which it is waterproof, heat/cold proof and has a slight 'give' like silicone rubber. https://sugru.com/ Looks good for a number of jobs but after failing to unsoggify m...

I followed Ed March's trip on youtube last year, which if you havent seen it is pretty entertaining...now hes looking to make a DVD of it...I pledged £4 being such a cheap bastard! but the cool thing about kickstarter is if the money isnt raised withing the time limit no money is taken from those th...
