This is how I solved my too tall PCX problem. I got the seat cut and plastic welded then re-covered, plus I bought Takegawa lowering shocks. Now I can have both feet flat on the ground, even wearing sneakers moving the PCX around the driveway.

We have Takegawa lowering shocks on our bikes and lower seats we ordered from powerbypcx.com. My wife also has boots with 3 inch soles she got on Amazon.com. Demonia Ranger boots. She is only 5 ft. Tall with a 27 inch inseam. It works. That is what counts.
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
