Re: Johnson's Pledge furniture wax spray

Long ago when I worked in the bush, my morning job was to clean and polish the bubble on the helicopter. (a Bell 47G like they used in MASH)
We kept a bottle of Pledge in the helicopter at all times. It had to be the "Lemon Fresh" Pledge, otherwise the pilot got all pissed off.

2015 PCX Physical Dimensions

I've only sat on one in a showroom so far, but I'm STOKED! Before I pull the trigger, I need to know if a 2015 PCX will fit easily in my van. Height is not an issue, but length and width are. I need to know the overall width of the scooter at the widest point. I imagine that'll be across the front f...

Re: Today's Quick Pic

I tested this Kymco Bet and Win 250 a few years ago. Fun ride, but not as refined as the Honda and Suzuki scooters I've tried. Stable up to about 70mph, it sure slowed down on the hills. British Columbia is mostly mountainous, so it's a good test. https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2106/2098973960_8c945...

Re: New Japanese fwy capable vs. used Taiwanese fwy comforta

I tested a Kymco 250 for Cycle Canada a few years ago and wasn't impressed with the build quality compared to typical Honda. Nor was the drive train silky smooth like the Ruckus I had under similar conditions for a few months. A carbureted unit, it was very thirsty, burning more fuel than my riding ...

Re: Ran out of gas (petrol).

These tanks are way too small. Two gallons would be good.

Is that price available everywhere in the Lower Mainland? That's about $5100 CDN.
Thanks! :D

Re: Buying a 2015 pcx150

In Canada, that price is about standard. Hi, Mike. :D I was quoted CDN $5375 OTD by a major Vancouver dealer yesterday. I personally prefer to buy new simply because I know that it will be maintained properly from day one... The mechanics manual is less than 50.00. Exactly my take on the subject. I...

That is SO pretty! We can only get red and some kind of hideous bronze here in Canada.
I guess I'll have to settle for red. :roll:
