The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

The new pcx adventure is here! What are your thoughts?

Don't like it at all.

Would like to test drive it. Better suspension and brakes than my 2016. Bigger wheels too.

Well, its not a PCX 150, its a ADV 150, my bad. Personnely I like the styling of my PCX better. I’ve been down dirt and gravel roads with it and I know it wasn’t intended for that so the ADV should be a lot better for that. At it’s price point its going to cost well over $5000 with tax and destination charges. Pretty pricey for what it is I think. Who knows, when I see it in person I might be all over it, haha.

Now that the seat has better padding, and the rear suspension has been improved, for less coin I'd still take a regular 2020 PCX. It's cheaper and at the end of the day has 14 inch wheels front and rear. The drum brake works but a rear disc would be easier to maintain and replace pads.

If I was going to spend $600 more for the new X-ADV I'd expect front and rear disc brakes and brush guards on the handlebar like a Zuma 125. Also, it would be nice if the engine was something in the 250cc range to make it truly more of an Adventure machine. It could still be agile with decent fuel economy and be able to climb to 70 MPH without having to modify the variator.

Just my two cents . . ..

The US version is going to have drum brakes in the rear. That's a big let down, for sure. The suspension though, that's the big upgrade.

Expensive, heavy, doesn't have the right transmission for off road/up hill climbs - belt is not good for that.

Not fan of the colors offered. Struggling to the use and appeal over a PCX.

Now the CT 125 I am waiting to possibly purchase. Want a small dual sport for a while now. Miss my 08 CRF 230L that I sold few yrs ago. That was a mistake.

Yeah, it's definitely not an adventure scooter. The extra suspension travel would be great in the city of Santa Cruz,CA. The streets are supper crummy.

My thoughts exactly. Aside from the suspension- which would be nice in San Francisco- it leaves me cold. I'll stick with my PCX.

What is Honda playing at equipping this with a rear drum brake when the Asia ADV has a disc.
Only in black too (red looks much better).
Still well jealous you’re getting it as there’s no chance it’s coming to the UK.
