my pcx125...

Post by jasontheparamedic »

Here is my PCX, complete with new replacement panels from my spill a few months ago. I've got it up for sale as I'm getting the '04 Silverwing. :D

I'm selling because I can't afford 2 bike payments. But at least I will have these pictures to remember my "little engine that could." :(

Edit: I decided not to sell it, read below. :)

From here.

They have the lowest priced OEM parts for the PCX I've ever seen.

Here is my new (used) 2004 Silverwing! It just arrived about 20 minutes ao as of the typing of this thread. It will be difficult selling the PCX as they both look like big and little brother.

Not a big scooter fan but that looks good

Immaculate for a 2004, have taken it for a decent ride yet. Would be interesting to hear what it's like compared to the pcx

Just got it insured about 5 minutes ago as required by my lender. I will probably take the Silverwing on its maiden voyage tomorrow. :D

Also, if the PCX doesn't sell then I will make sure the car (also a Honda) is inactive as much as possible to save a lot of gas and therefore recoup some of the cost on paying for both bikes.

(Honestly, I truly don't want to sell the PCX but economics sometimes forces difficult decisions.)

Congrats on the new scoot. I would have kept my pcx but I was not going to get much use from it.

Congrats on the new bike. It does look immaculate. Is that the 400 or the 600 cc?.

I'm sure you will go to and from work in a safer and more comfortable manner from now on, but if one of your concerns is fuel efficiency, I doubt there's nothing out there tan can beat the PCX at that.

We expect a thorough review including your mpg soon! ;)

It's in the USA so it can only be a 600, the 400 is only available in mainland Europe.

Hooray! The misses does not want the PCX sold. In fact she will utilize the PCX as the primary means of transportation. If the car is not driven frequently, then the gas savings will allow the PCX to essentially pay for itself. She realized this the hard way when attempting to ride the Silverwing today. Too heavy for her for now until she gets more practice at it. As for me, I love the Silverwing and will use it as my main work vehicle!

Too bad I can't change the name of the title to read..."my pcx125, no longer for sale." :D

:D Great news.

Wonder how the Silverwing gets away with the indicators in the body work whilst the US PCX version has to have (imo ugly) stalk indicators sticking out. Strange US laws I guess.
