Re: Stupid Question?

No kidding, really. In Japan, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia it is widely believed that PCX stands for: Personal Comfort Xaloon ...as in Saloon. Don't take my word for it. Just google and you'll come up with pages (including Japanese Wikipedia ) to confirm this. Thai page: http://www.motorcyc.in.t...

I certainly hope so. It's also very sleek and agile. I like it for the flat floorboard most. The highish central tunnel is my biggest gripe with PCX.

Re: Traded in my old Wave for a new PCX150

Any plans for mods? -------------- Not really, apart from installing a rear trunk. Thankfully there's a nice tutorial right here on the forum (kudos go to PCX Commuter).

Re: Traded in my old Wave for a new PCX150

Here's a photo where she is waiting to be delivered on the showroom floor. The old loyal rig in the background feels sad and unduly abandoned.

Re: My PCX150-White/Red

User HawaiiJ has made some really fine mods to his PCX150. Thanks for the photos and information. Makes a nice read. The black seat cover looks in my opinion much better than the stock red wine posh installed at factory.
