Just wanted to give a shout out to the forum as I'm a new member here! Just sold my truck and bought a new 2015 pcx 150! And loving every minute of it! Was in the honda ruckus scene before and fell in love with the bigger scoots when I was in Japan, but as they are a lot more expensive I decided to go with the pcx, wanna do a full custom jdm sorta build mask and all, including a stretch! No fatty tho unlike my first ruckus build, wanna keep it somewhat nimble. Anyways hope to learn a lot and get some ideas and hopefully be able to share some ideas! Here's some pics
And here's some of my old builds:

Pretty cool! Look forward to the construction pictures. Maybe get some ideas. I always like buying things I don't really need my wife says.

There was a white 2015 on the Ruckus ride last weekend, you?
Also looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

Thanks for the kind words! I'll be sure to post pics of my progress, and yeah Duggle that was me,were you the dude on the black one with the case on back? It was an awesome ride! The pcx is my only bike now, I feel like every other bike I had was leading up to the pcx in a way. With the ruckus' they were too slow, and the ninja was too serious, but the pcx feels just right

Yeah, that was me, the other black PCX had invited me through this forum. Definitely was a very fun ride.
Regarding the PCX... I kind of wish it was exactly like it is but with about 200-250cc. A little extra power would be helpful on backcountry highway rides, especially with the local mountains. It can be a little slower than traffic on an uphill or with a strong headwind. The Forza has the power but seems to be more of a freeway cruiser, too large for my taste.
p.s. Nice looking scooters above. I was really enjoying checking out all of the customs last weekend, and the loud rumble coming from the pack was the best.
