Re: How to replace panels on PCX 125

I will agree that there is a trust thing going on with the Oz navy ship there also. But do keep in mind that the Antarctic is neutral territory and no big guns allowed. We had the job of clearing the ice and restocking the Navy facility there because we have no guns on the icebreakers. We also flew ...

Re: How to replace panels on PCX 125

Thank you! I will order it from them just as soon as my next pension check comes in. Yes, I am old, but I'm not dead, so I'm going to ride! I retired at the end of 2011 when I found out that I have leukemia...that, after 5 back surgeries for an injury I suffered in the Antarctic in the mid '70s. Sti...

Re: How to replace panels on PCX 125

I had hoped to get by cheaper than $50 plus shipping.

I guess it didn't work. Well, I have made it smaller, so I'll try again.

Re: Honda PCX Manual

OK, I'm going to try to load a picture file to see if I can get it to go from my main computer. Attached is a picture of 2 of my 3 Jack Russell's. The one standing has ridden in his crate behind me and loves it. That is Butch (yes, his name is Butch Cassidy. We had to put down his cohort in crime, S...

Re: How To: Install a Trunk

I just came from my basement where I tore down my little bike's trunk and started over. With everything completely off I was able to get the threads to line back up! :-) I had already destroyed 2 of the original bolts but the ones I had bought at Home Depot with a decent head on them worked well at ...

Re: How To: Install a Trunk

Sorry about the miss spelled words. I am on my tablet and it does what it wants to while I type. I next notice that it has changed words until I hit the .submit button. I have a full Bluetooth keyboard for it but am at a coffee shop so don't carry it with me there.

Re: How To: Install a Trunk

Great job! I wish I had seen this How-to before I installed mine. I used the Giving supports and went through a lot of headaches, and ended up with all 4 of the bolts cross threaded. Then I had to buy 4 metric bolts from a Supply store which I also cross threaded. Now the unit is o. The bike but the...

Re: Honda PCX Manual

She is sooo cute! We got one of our Jack Russell's at Animal Control 6 years ago. Mine loves riding g in the crate but I doubt that he would ride well on the bike. He would probably want to jump off and explore every time I stopped. By the way, what is the picture restriction for adding pictures? I ...

Re: How to replace panels on PCX 125

I was going to buy a service manual from one of the sites mentioned on this forum (Manual Wizard) but it looks like they no longer offer it. We have a new pcx150 but they look like they are the same, so I should be able to use the same service manual. Since I have to replace the right front cover on...

Re: Route 66 crossing the Mississippi

Now I feel old. I use to DRIVE across that bridge, unless that is the one that the trains used. It was quite tight to pass oncoming traffic on it. That was in the late '60s.

Re: Honda PCX Manual

Good idea on the anti spam measures. Well I have spent quite awhile looking on the web for touch up paint but no luck so far. I'm not giving up yet though. It seems to me that if a bike in certain colors has been out as long as these have, someone should have touch up paint for them by now. By the w...

For some reason the PM feature is turned off for me. I guess I don't participate enough. I've never heard of a site having that restriction, but that was the message I got. I just got notice that the part is on its way. Meanwhile I hid the bang ups with some red model paint. It doesn't match exactly...

Re: Honda PCX Manual

I bought my wife a 2013 PCX150 in Candy Rosy Red. She just dropped it. Anyone know how to replace the Front Cover? I ordered one for a 2011 of the same color, with the same color code, so hopefully it will match. Now I just need to figure out how to get the old one off. By the way, Maddiedog, I live...

Re: 2011 White Honda PCX - Marietta, GA

I thought I would add my 2 cents worth in this discussion and let you know that I bought my wife her new 2013 PCX150 from Mountain Motor sports in August. I have a Burgman 400 and she has no problem keeping up with me. In fact her bike is a lot quicker off of the line and turns better than mine. We ...

Re: Small back rest and chrome bar around back of seat

I had tried to connect with you about purchasing the backrest for $40 but I just noticed that you have it on eBay for $80. I don't have that amount to spare right now because I am retired. Still, we could negotiate??

I too live in Marietta, so if possible perhaps you can help me with this endeavor?? From what I can see on the PowerPCX site it is difficult to get them to ship to...
