Pcx cut out or dying issues post here
I wanted to make a record of people Gage have had their scooter cut out on them or die on them either whilst riding or at a stop light. If you have had this happen at all please post here as to if it's happened and if and how the issue was resolved.

Re: Pcx cut out or dying issues post here
Well we have had both of our pcx 150s quit while riding them. From what I could discern, these engines don't like the ethanol mix in the current gas. If the bike sets for any amount of time it quits while we are riding. We have purchased some ethanol gas treatment and are going to try that. Here is hoping that helps.
Currently own:
Red 2013 Honda PCX150
Givi tall windshield & tailbox - Lots of extra lights
Custom seat from Thailand - Bad Boy Airhorn
Takegawa Lowering Shocks - Michelin City Grip Tires
Headlight assy upgraded to LEDs w/HS5 main bulbs
NCY variator, drive face, and rollers

Mine cuts out every time I stop
Re: Pcx cut out or dying issues post here
Mine failed to resume from standby once in 18,000 miles.
It was the first time it had run after a winter layoff.
It had been left outside in subzero temperatures for about two months so the battery was probably pretty low.
Immediately resolved by pulling the brake lever and pressing the starter button whereupon it reluctantly coughed back to life.
Switched the idle stop off for a couple of days and all was well.

Four decades on two wheels has taught me nothing, all advice given is guaranteed to be wrong
