The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Hi All: I don't know if this is "shunned upon" but I wanted to posts some pics of my Kymco GT300i (which I love) @ 29HP. Really a nice scoot! The Forza wasn't around in 2012 & I wouldn't have bought it anyway as I don't dig the seating set-up. The GT300i is my main scooter @ home & I keep a PCX150 @ my mothers house in Florida.

how about shooting the bike , not just the dash? Looks nice...

Sorry...I Screwed up the pics. Here is some more.

A few more.

Last one......

I actually like this a lot... wish honda made a minimalish 300.
I was checking out the kymco site and also like the 150x... , but of course i would have to have one in a 300+

I also think this is a fantastic size for a 300. I'd be torn between these and a maxi-scooter.

It's been super reliable. Only issue I had was a fork seal. Most of the Kymco's now are made in China. Mine was built in Taiwan & the fit & finish is top-notch. I sold my Kymco Super 8 to purchase the PCX.

Das: I really wouldn't recommend the new Super 8's We call them (Kymco forums) the Super Agility 150 now. Kymco got cheap & basically took their low-end/entry level scooter (Agility 125) & made it into the new Super 8. It uses a modified form of the old GY6 engine which isn't a bad thing. HP is just ok for a carb/150cc @ 10.3HP Again, as all Kymco's it was very reliable but I really started to hate cleaning the carb before I came down to Florida. @ $2300.00 it's $1300.00 less then the PCX, but the Honda is so much nicer. The thing is, you can pay retail for the Kymco & walk away with no other dealer fees (destination charge, set-up fees etc.) Honda milks you dry, but you get a great product.

I bought my Kymco GT300i in the middle of Winter up here in New England in 2011 & got $750.00 off retail ($4,649.00) Paid no fees @ all with the exception of the Mass. state tax.

No i'm not getting one, but i do like the idea of a "dual sport" step through... less for me to modify

Hi Alock,

I didn't read all of the posts above, so someone may have already mentioned this.

Thanks for posting and there is nothing wrong with posting pics of other bikes. We won't shun you ... we promise, don't we folks. But in the future, the best place for them is in the 'Other Vehicles - Other Bikes' category.

Thanks again for posting and welcome to HondaPCX.org

Duly noted Kram. I'm still getting my feet wet on this wonderful forum. Many thanks for the "Heads-Up"
