Re: 2016 Forza is here...

It's not a shock, it is just disappointing. Take a look at the Honda Silver Wing Scooter. They are still trying to sell 2013 year models! Do a side by side comparison of a 2013 Honda Silver Wing to a 2015 Yamaha TMAX... I just wish Honda would put a little more energy into presenting newer models/up...

2016 Forza is here...

But it appears to be exactly the same as the 2015. Not even a color change... I was thinking of upgrading from my PCX in the spring but might wait another year. I wish that Honda would make the rear wheel 14" like the front wheel ( and both wheels on the PCX ).

Re: My build/mods thread: '15 PCX

Yes, # 7 was a bit too hard and #18 bought me just a little too close to the handle bars. I love the look of the #18 but just couldn't get used to the position.

Re: New Black PCX 2015

Hello LucasC... Congratulations on your new purchase! I have a Black 2015 as well... It's the switch that turns on the rear brake... Press the lever down slowly. As soon as you hear the click, the rear brake light goes on. It doesn't do it with the left brake. That switch must be somewhere where you...

Thanks for the information! Looks like a good "winter project". I'm going to add it to the list!

Removal of Dashboard Meter Panel

Has anyone out there taken their dashboard apart? The problem I have, although not a very serious one, is that water spots have somehow built up on the inside of the clear plastic lens... I would love to take the speedo apart and clean the inside surface. It looks like the outside black plastic case...

Bleeding the brake lines on a 2015 PCX..

Has anyone had to bleed their brake lines yet. I am hoping for some help, maybe from somebody somebody with a service manual??? Long story short, I recently noticed that the line going into the reservoir ( the square one near the throttle )was assembled incorrectly. The bent metal tube (where the gr...

Re: Homie was right!!! 13g better than 12g rollers!

If you think the 13 gram rollers were an improvement, you really ought to try 13 gram SLIDERS from Dr. Pulley... I ran with 13 gram rollers from early May until Wednesday of this week. Then I switched over to the 13 gram sliders and gained 4-5 mph top speed and have even better take offs. Watch this...

Is anyone familiar with Sharkmotorcycleaudio.com products?

Curious about this item... Only cost $159.00. The amplifier measures 3" x 4" x 1" so it could potentially mount inside the storage compartment next to the 12 volt power supply. (Built in Bluetooth FM Radio USB & SD slot input3.5 mm aux input USB charging function wired and wireles...

Re: Lubrication between the Boss and the Driveshaft...

A picture is worth a thousand words... The tolerance in between the shaft and the inside of the boss (part #3) is probably around .001". If corrosion forms on either the shaft or the surface inside boss, you will experience the same "oh crap" moment that I did... PS - 13 gram Dr. Pull...

Lubrication between the Boss and the Driveshaft...

Ok, so about two months ago, I changed the stock 16 gram rollers to 13 gram NCY rollers in the vario... I did this after I changed my tires over to the Michelin City Grips because I had lost some acceleration do to their size and weight... The results were great but my top speed was only about 63-64...

Re: I just installed my new seat from Bikerzbits yesterday,

Glen, Would you say the new seat is Two Inches lower than the stock seat? The front part on my stock seat ( the part facing the key ) measures 8" tall. It looks like your seat starts off shorter ( maybe 6" on the front part? ) and stays about two inches less tall to the very end. It also a...

Re: I just installed my new seat from Bikerzbits yesterday,

Yes, lack of leg room. The photo on the internet gave me the illusion that this seat might move me down and back slightly. The new seat is comfortable but that backrest does not allow me to push back a little bit like the stock seat does. I am very pleased with the quality of the seat. It is well bu...

I just installed my new seat from Bikerzbits yesterday, but.

My new seat finally came in from Thailand. The look is fantastic and the quality is first rate. The problem is that, at 5' 11', I was looking for more leg room. This seat is comfortable but simply not what I was looking for in terms of positioning. I might give it another day or two but it might be ...
