My other bike.. A vtx1800c.. had to sell it to move back home, but My PCX is wayyy more practical here.... That vtx1800 was something else but on this Island it would need its own parking spot.. The PCX fits perfect across the bumper of our car. Trapped if you will. Theft deterrent... :geek:

Glad your PCX suits your Island, your lifestyle and needs. Best of all, "you're Still happy" riding ;) 8) Size doesn't matter!

1800cc vtwin... That's a lot of power. Bet that was a lot of fun on big open roads. :D

You definitely are right though -- that much power and size would be a hassle on an island. Still a cool bike though. :)

Not really.
1800cc VTX puts out 106bhp
999cc VTR SP2 puts out 133bhp

Remember this is the land of harleys. 55bhp is shitloads of screaming eagle nonsense

Compared to the PCX? That's a lot of power. It's way more power and torque than any bike I've owned, which isn't a bad thing. ;)
