Stock engine, modified rider..

Post by alx123 »

I found out that I can easily reach 110kph (68mph) on my stock PCX 2016.

I feel like I can push the scoot more if I had enough road..



I only weigh around 150 lbs though :lol:

I have no plans of upgrading my engine yet (at least for now)..

Wont be riding at higher speed most of the time anyway...

Thailand has the record of being the second most dangerous roads in the world lately (First is Libya)

Actually the first is Namibia which is southwestern Africa very close to the South African tip. That area is dangerous anyway, with all of the rebel activity and constant fighting. Who would want to drive in an area with few paved roads and lots of people shooting at you?

I am surprised by this given the extreme regulatory codes in their building industry that streets and highways are not up to saftey standards.

And Libya is not? Ever since democracy was gifted to them that place remains like a rubix cube in civil and military security order...

My "reliable" sources in the internet says Libya :lol:

Kidding aside, they probably based that stats in number of road accidents last year...

@Whitenoise

Sorry it was private, fixed it. Thanks :)

Actually Black is the fastest colour since it reflects all photons hitting it, hence your bike is not getting heavier from all those photons.
