Re: Installed aftermarket Keyless ignition. Result, not bad.

I guess it's a curiousity/fun project. i don't see a practical use of this over using a key, at least in my riding conditions. I don't start it in the bitter cold and don't leave the bike in high crime neighborhoods, and I am not getting on and off all the time doing delivieries. But, if you are hap...

Re: PCX 150 Oil Dipstick extension DIY.

Used this Harbor Freight epoxy, held the whole thing with a clamp in a vise for a few hours. Seems to have come out as one sold piece. The time will show if it holds.

How-To: PCX 150 - Oil Dipstick EXTENSION - w/pics/video

Hello, I'm guessing many of you have burnt your fingers or have noticed how difficult it is to reach the small oil dipstick that is recessed far towards the engine. After an especially painful burn I decided to make an extension. Here's what I've done:

Re: Genuine Grand Tourer 150

I've also been turned off by the genuine product quality. Was reading a ride report by a guy going across Canada and into Alaska on one of those and he had constant engine problems. Eventually his engine seized and he had to have a new one installed under warranty. Life is too short to worry about t...

Re: Near miss and horn test

So it seems all the idiots have emerged since some of the lockdown is relaxing a bit. Got real rattled by a near miss today. It's the first one I've gotten on camera in quite a while. My new horn works...but she didn't care. I also talk a little about other idiocy as well. If you just want to see t...

Re: Tire size

So I’ve seen a lot of posts about tires. But never a good explanation I had ordered 120’ss for the front and was gonna do the 140’ss for the rear. But I want to know if that’s risky or not? Or should I stick to the oem size? Also has anyone changed they’re bars? And bar ends. ? Thanks :ugeek: I thi...

Re: close call on my new zuma

Yeah, don't trust drivers... assume you are invisible and slow down instead of relying on them seeing you.
Glad you got out of the situation safely.

Looks nice. I like your orange decals, definitely makes the black bike more visible and therefore safer.

2. That same data shows it no more dangerous for those under 50 than a typical flu. Whoever compares Covid 19 with flu is doing a huge disservice by deceiving the people.

I'll go with my knowledge and thinking point by point. 1. The data shows it's very contagious and dangerous for those either over 60 or with other illnesses. What we've done so far was prudent. It is equally dangerous for people of all ages. Immunity here may not be related to health or age but some...

Re: Has anyone seen what Honda is offering us now?

Expensive, heavy, doesn't have the right transmission for off road/up hill climbs - belt is not good for that. Not fan of the colors offered. Struggling to the use and appeal over a PCX.

Re: 2019 exhaust

I wish you left the cat alone, it's there for a good reason, to keep the air clean for cats and (us) to breath.
Btw, illegal to modify stock exhaust in many if not all US states.
I personally like the stock look the most but I understand those yoshimuras or other exhausts have their fans too.
