The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

I'm not sure which is prettier--your bike, or the background scenery in your photos. Congrats!

That was pretty cool. I sent the link to my dad who is a Navy veteran.

This really stinks. I'm no lawyer, nor do I play one on TV. But it seems like there should be an option to put a disclaimer throughout the site (maybe in the header of each page and/or in each person's signature automatically)...you know, some legal language around the content of the site being peop...

Congratulations to your daughter (and you)!

I wholeheartedly agree.

me too...and a dollar short!

My feeling is it was designed for a very small person. It was designed for me. I'm 5 feet, 5 inches tall. My husband is the same height, and neither of us has ever had a complaint about the seat. I actually find it to be quite comfortable. But that's unfortunate because we're shorter than most...an...

I'm pretty sure I would get laughed at if I tried to join a motorcycle club with my PCX. I agree with the others... join for the discount, but find others to actually ride with.

I work in the ED in a decent sized hospital. We see a fair bit of motorcycle and ATV traumas. I can say from what I see that people wearing full face helmets tend to do a lot better on average than the people who ride with the little bowl style helmets some of the cruiser guys wear. People wearing ...

Nothing personal, Mel46, but I don't think I want to be your friend. Your friends don't seem to have good odds.

All kidding aside, man, those are depressing stories. But very convincing for helmet skeptics, IMHO.

I often see riders pull off the road just across the river so they can remove their helmets. You probably do, too.

Move to Missouri. They're still required here, and our insurance (mine and my husband's) is super-cheap. You do bring up a good point. I'm a fan of helmets myself, and I really hate seeing riders on the interstate with no helmet and wearing shorts, t-shirt, and sandals (or flip-flops, which I think ...

I have to agree with GeezyRider about getting the Forza if you plan to do much riding on the Beltway. I don't feel comfortable/safe at all at 55+ on the PCX. This bike just doesn't feel stable at its highest speeds. Plus, the wind resistance (with stock windshield) against my head and body can be pr...

Welcome from a fellow Missourian! My nephew just graduated from college in Springfield...nice town! You are going to love the PCX!

I get cold feet when on roads that require speeds around 60. Prefer speeds up to 50. maybe I'm a wuss? LOL!

I was riding at about 55 mph yesterday, and the scooter did not feel very stable under me at all. It was almost getting wobbly. Didn't feel safe.

I don't "get it"....what exactly is this? Does it clamp to the existing handlebar and sit above it?

Cute!

You've probably shared this in other threads, but what leads you to live in Thailand? Just curious.

Hello! My husband and I did the two-fer as well! We don't see many scooters where we live, either. I wish there were more...would be fun to have some riding buddies.

My husband and I ride with high beams on during the day. It was suggested by the guy who sold us our scooters, and we thought it was a good idea.

I agree. The bike is already so light...much lighter and it might as well be a bicycle.
