Re: 600 mi first service?

Thanks. I didn't figure it would be a problem, unless you were at 1,000mi or more. I'll be slightly over 700. Not too shabby for 2 weeks ownership!!

Re: New Owners from Ohio

Great idea, we did the same, except mine is a 2011 model.

600 mi first service?

I've been pretty close to an actual 600 mi on all of my new scoots when I take them in for service. I have 582 mi now on my PCX 125 and I am scheduled for Monday morning at my Honda dealer. My question is, how safe is it to go over the 600 mi mark and if not a big deal, how far over without causing ...

Re: Feeling sorry for the PCX 125?

I agree, but we have to have adequate choices for our needs and reasonable prices. The SH150i was, maybe still is the best selling scooter in Italy, so they bring it here to capitalize on its popularity, but sell it at a ridiculous cost of nearly 5K, when a thousand more lands you a new Majesty 400 ...

Re: Feeling sorry for the PCX 125?

I think Honda is going that way. I look for it to be the 50cc Metro/ruckus, 150cc PCX & 300cc Forza for 2014. I think the Silverwing will be no more. It's already gone from other markets. They've released the identical bike for the past 3 years. Why buy a new for 10K, when a used will go for 5-7...

Re: Feeling sorry for the PCX 125?

I was the same way, loving my Elite 110 & SH150i, but feeling since I was a guy, that I had to move up to a maxi. I got the Reflex first, rode it for a season & was happy, but when a used Silverwing, with all of its modern tech, FI etc, came into my price range, I had to have it, knowing I r...

Feeling sorry for the PCX 125?

Since the 150 was released last year, it appears that most everyone has traded in or sold their 125 for the newer model. The first thing I don't understand, with Honda, is why put out a 125 for only one model year, knowing the next year you will be putting out a larger cc version for basically the s...

2009 Honda Fit Sport- a surprisingly fun handling car, with great mpg, massive room and all Honda quality.

Re: Honda Lead 125

I had an Elite 110 early on too & it was a great scoot. Even two up, we could keep it above 50 mph, its rev limiter was set at 53. A very fun little bike and very powerful for a 108cc.

Re: New ride -- Honda Silverwing

I'm glad. I've talked to some nice guys on there & was surprised how fast my likes went up.
The PCX pages there aren't impressive & mostly European based, I'm happy I found yours!!!

Re: 2-23-2012 Cocoa Beach Scooter Rally

Probably one of the best ride reports I've ever seen, kudos Maddiedog. All of the pictures and play by play, felt like we were right there with you, except we kept dry. Getting soaked brings out my expletives as well.

Re: New ride -- Honda Silverwing

Awesome picture skuuter, I would wet myself-ha ha! With my lightweight, I took turns with as little lean as possible, out of fear. It is so much fun to have a sub 300 lb scoot again to "throw around" & feel secure. I have a facebook Silverwing fan page, do you care if I post it there? ...

Re: Other riders

Our dealer has sold a lot of them too, but I don't see them. Sadly some people buy them with good intentions & never ride them. As much as my wife & I have ridden ours in the past few weeks, we're advertising them quite well.

Re: Honda NSS300 Forza

I agree. It is nice to see many more bikes coming here. There is no release date anywhere, even though it got emissions approval??
