Re: Break in and increasing fuel economy

My 2013 PCX 150 just keeps getting better and better fuel mileage. I now have 14,000 miles on it and I am averaging 110 mpg. But the things that have helped is a windshield and full synthetic oil. My last tank got 115 mpg.

Re: Increasing mpg with each fill up?

Sorry ScooterKim, not sure how to reply to you. I am near Philly, 30 miles NW. My son just told me to try 89 octane; you're right...for the price difference it would be worth a test to try. And Skuuter, a buddy of mine told me his scooter's milage dropped off noticeably when he overfilled with too m...

Re: Increasing mpg with each fill up?

It is interesting to see the milage others are getting. I own a 2013 PCX 150 with 6000 miles on it. From the 2nd week I owned it, I added the smaller Givi windshield and I think that has helped me average 107mpg over the first 5500 miles. I have since changed the oil to 100% synthetic and since then...

Re: Looking into a PCX150 and I have a couple questions.

maddiedog, That is US gallons (I am near Philadelphia, PA). I really can't believe this... on my 3rd tank with my new 150, I got... 111 mpg! And I was very precise on measurement and calculating. I am blown away; I just can't understand how it physically can go that far on a gallon of (regular) gas....

Re: Are the accessories for the PCX 125 and PCX 150 the same

Maddiedog, You have me about sold on the Givi D323DT. That is the one you have installed now correct? How is the hand protection?...I am going to use it all winter long. With my 2013 150, I assume I will be ordering the D323KIT right away. I am only 5'8"; could this windshield be overkill for m...

Re: Looking into a PCX150 and I have a couple questions.

Hey auerbacs, I am not sure if anyone is going to believe me, but on my 2nd tank of my 150 I was meticulous and exact on figuring this out...I got 105.9 mpg on regular gas (but I only weigh 160). Now I did really baby it because of the break in period. It will be interesting to see what happens as I...

Re: Are the accessories for the PCX 125 and PCX 150 the same

maddiedog, Thanks for responding so fast. Not sure what shield I want to buy. The more I read these posts, the more confused I get. No one that I can see says that they really love what they bought. I am a cold weather rider; had my old scooter out at 14 degrees last winter. I need something that is...

Re: Are the accessories for the PCX 125 and PCX 150 the same

I am thrilled to be a new owner of a 150; got it a couple of weeks ago near Philadelphia, PA. I want to add a windscreen. From what I read here, a windscreen (or windshield) that is designed for a 125 should fit. Any additional confirmation would be great.
