How long did the trip last for and how much did it cost you? Sounds like a good backpacking trip

Been to Small town China many times, I enjoy it a LOT more than Modern Cities in China. You feel like you went back in time 50 years and landed in a movie set. Modern Chinese cities too many western style malls, condos for me.

Wow, I loved those photos!!!
Thanks a lot!

I loved the pictures, thanks for sharing.

I think the PCX will last decades if you take good care of it. Mel mentioned some good preventative maintenance, be proactive about doing that and your PCX will just keep going as long as you want it to.

When I did a big bore kit on my first PCX at just under 10k miles, the inside of the engine, cams, cam chain, etc... all looked new. The piston and head was a bit dirty from crappy gas, but the cylinder was clean and free of any marks. I have no doubt the PCX will go tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands, of miles with good preventative maintenance. Just remember, it doesn't have an oil filter (just the little screen), so sticking with regular oil changes every 5k miles or so with synthetic oil is imperative to longevity.

Sir, I rode many mid to long range tours. Longest so far 3000km.
I am planning to do an around the nation tour on my new PCX, expected distance of 10,000km plus.

Absolutely, Sir.
i live in centre of a fairly big mordernised city, I likewise enjoy the tranquility of countryside, hence my many tours.

OK, thanks.
