Re: Re: State of the forum - July 2013! - JULY 2019 UPDATE!

Anyway to link and connect a group page to facebook? Might help pick up new members and give out information new PCX owners need or have. Also is there a color change option for the back ground borders of the page? I have no plans for Facebook integration. The site uses very simple software, we'd h...

Re: SPAM (and not the processed meat variety)

You guys are AWESOME! I got no less than 3 emails about spam, and nuked all of them!! That said, I think it's time we get some more moderators to get a faster response.

Re: New belt making slight squeal low speed

The drive faces of the variator can get glazed with rubber, or the rubber on a variator may have gotten oils on it. I'd take them out and wipe the belt and variator faces with a dry cloth. Do not use oil. If you feel like using a bit of fluid to help scrub, use alcohol and make sure it evaporates be...

Re: scooter revival

The PCX has FI, which means there's no nasty fuel sitting in a carb float. That's a good thing for you. Siphon out all the fuel and fill with fresh fuel. Put it up on the centerstand and see if it'll run by jumping the battery from a car. Make sure the car is off, cars often charge with their altern...

Re: New member, with a question

Hi Vito, welcome! The PCX can keep up on 55mph roads no problem, even uphills, with a normal weight rider.

I advise against highway riding. While I have done a lot of that on my last PCX, I was young and stupid and wouldn't do it again. :lol: The PCX is just too light and gets blown around too much.

Re: overfilled oil and old oil

That 10w30 will work great.

If it was that bad, I'd do another drain and fill, as Eiron recommended.

I'd also keep an eye on the level long-term, it is possible water got in there somehow if it was that full.

Re: Excited PCX owner......Pictures

Wow, full knee replacement straight to a PCX! You're awesome and adventurous!! The PCX has a low center of gravity, so you made a great choice. When you're taking it out and learning, try to always stop with both feet or your good foot down until you get back to 100%... And if it starts to drop towa...

It's STORMING out today. I'm down with that though, my wife had me plant 4 raspberry bushes yesterday and 3 blueberry bushes. I also transplanted a bunch of nandinas to the front yard. They could use the rain. It's also pollen season here in Georgia. I'm sure Mel's seeing the same stuff I'm seeing, ...

Re: How long does it take for the engine oil to warm up?

I wouldn't worry about warm up with the PCX engine, it is built with close enough tolerances that thermal cycling won't affect the life of the engine substantially. I'd instead be extra careful to stick with the maintenance schedule to change the oil regularly since the scooter has no oil filter. If...
