Re: PCX suddenly won't start

If you’re buying the yuasa battery, which is OEM, yes, it’s about 110 bucks, but there are many on Amazon that are half that, just measure your battery: length, width, and height, and find one on Amazon that is about the same. Except for sizing, 12 V batteries are 12 V batteries. And from now on, i...

Re: PCX suddenly won't start

Ok, false alarm. It looked wet, but I think it's more some sort of protective oil. Didn't burn my fingers, anyway. :D Right, so progress. Looks like it most definitely is the battery.
