The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Had a look at your videos. Very interesting. Did you change the rubber gasket or just reseal the old one? BIG WARNING! Its fine to use the old gasket but make sure all the metal surfaces are clean of any old sealant and that you apply the new sealant properly! I found dipping my (latex gloved) fing...

Never checked my rear brake in the 3 years and 16000 miles ive had it...shoes were very low and was full of dust!

Hopefully some will find this useful. I have no experience of doing this on any bike but i managed just fine int the end!

I bet that bag was comfortable to lean back on! Last summer i was supposed to do a trip round Norway, Sweden and Finland but had to cancel, really feeling the need for a PCX adventure now.

PCX is a very capable tourer!

Compared to mine (2011) it looks a little better but i havent seen the 'esp' so it prob is the same as that. Always hated that orange backlight...but then i did get 0% fiance and paid £200 less than the current one!

Maybe spidermark just saw a Forza, from the side it looks like a new style PCX...?

Lots of ridiculously bright leds, i ride all year so like to be visible in poor weather!

The 150 has a new dash, no seat hump...and no clock!!

Its a normal noise coming from the CVT, there are a few threads on it. When you slow the belt slaps about and you will hear a clunck from where all the roller drop, some bikes are louder than otheres

Bet you could haggle that down to £2150 delivered at least this time of year, your in a strong buying position! Main reason im not buying a bigger bike is i wont get the price i want for mine this close to winter...

A new PCX is £2600 with £100 cashbach until 30th September. The bike is so reliable i would get a used on from ebay with a couple of hundred miles, save on doing the first service and several hundred pounds. Go for the colour you like rather than price, theres so much black plastics on the bike it l...

I covered my PCX in LEDs about 3 months ago to make me more visible ready for winter.

Might have slightly overdone it to be honest but there's no way someone can say they ''didn't see me'', well worth doing!

I'll post some photos when i get round to it...

A used S-wing is 100% the way forwards, every time i see one i regret buying the PCX. The PCX is a very good bike but for UK weather and for practicality get an S-wing or a 125 SYM.

This thread is making me want to go shopping....

Looking at this set so im basically covered for all the sockets i need for the car and bike. I heard they are good quality and a bargain at this price but thought i would see if anyone has used them or have an opinion on Halfords professional sets? http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/p...

I left that one and moved here, think several have done the same!

MY pcx isn't afraid of an adventure or two!

I use this and it is amazing! http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0046AMQMU/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 You can use it on the black plastics, screen and top box just fine. Wanted to make the most of the sun so gave my scoot a FULL clean then put this on and it looked like new, very ...

I'm not bothered about warming up, im bothered about having no center stand for refueling, checking oil and parking in the tight spaces at work!

Not gonna be a ginnie pig for the Forza, i'll wait till they find the problems and release an updated model...or just get an SYM next...

Anyone have news from Honda about this issue? Even tho its out of warranty i feel, as gn2 said it clearly 'not fit for purpose' but i it would be impossible to prove we haven't abused the stand! I really HATE using the side stand, very difficult to put shopping in, cant start it to warm on the side ...

Take it your just going to leave it off then, maybe all the top speed obsessives will do this anyway to save weight?

I would call it a design/manufacturing defect...Honda would say we misused the stand and the reason for the reinforced 150 stand will be for the extra weight...when word gets out its going to effect my resale value. Think ive gone from £1500 to £1200-£1100 resale if the buyer sees it? Its now the on...
