Re: Best colour PCX?

I went for black as it looked great with the chrome. Also like the red which is new for this year. Just look at em all in the flesh and decide. Black shows all the marks up so it would be the red if I did it again. The white and silver just dont do it for me. Red will stand out too in daylight bett...

Like what?
Theres plenty of 200cc and up scooters. Try a Tmax, Majesty, Burgman, Vespa, Silverwing etc, even Kymco makes some bigger ones.
On the flip side my 150 does 65 easy with no tucking.

Re: Rode the PCX125. Bought the 150

I ride it in the 55-65 range all the time, I live in the Chicago suburbs. I find no problem with the wind. That would be like me complaining about water splashing when im on my boat!
Now when I race in the Scoooter Grand Prix maybe i'll tuck.

Why, that has to look ridiculous. All i care is that it can carry a 12 pack and a bottle of margarita mix under the seat.

Re: PCX|Blur|Reflex|SC250

It took forever for me to get in contact with those guys at Midwest and still never got an answer about PCX availabilty. Just got mine from Desplaines Honda. Those guys were actually great.
We'll have to meet up for a drag race down 120.

Re: Parking

~~ Haven't had to park much yet, but when I have, I usually park a bit further away than I did with my car. Like at the store or some such, I'll park a few spaces back from the last car and walk the extra little bit up to the building. Makes the bike visible so no one hits it and most people could ...

Re: Parking

I doubt it, anything under 50 has to have a Moped license plate.. They have some real cute but dedicated parking matrons there. They just put in the electronic parking meters. When you run close to being out of time you get a text and can text more money into the meter. Makes it easy if we are on th...

Re: Parking

Up in Lake Geneva under Wisconsin state law you can park 50cc and less on the sidewalk but anything over that is considered a motorcycle and has to be parked in a parking spot. You can put multiple bikes in one spot with the parking meters.

Re: Parking

Depends, some places let you park on the sidewalk sometimes limited by engine size. Other areas its a ticket. I see full size motorcycles parked at the bicycle rack at the train station. If you use a car spot dont pull all the way in, otherwise a car wont see the bike and will run it over. Happened ...

Re: Rode the PCX125. Bought the 150

Which color you get?
I really prefer the PCX to the CBR250. No more shifting every 1.6 seconds and seems to be smoother over the bumps. Just noticed after the ride today, no more sore wrists.
