So there is this super hero in this one who, among his many good deeds, reminds a motorcyclist to put on his helmet: CJVBZuxTo1I And the super hero, Speed Walker, helps stop crime as people watch boats in Seattle, Washington: jghY0...

Re: Honda OEM Rear Trunk Base, 2013 one-piece metal version

Thanks, khaosaming.
I had no idea there was the potential for a degree of universal accessory sharing between the SH_ _ _ _ line and the PCX!
Honda should share this information more.

Re: Honda OEM Rear Trunk Base, 2013 one-piece metal version

I wonder if the Honda mount is universal within the SH300 / SH150 and the PCX Rear Trunk Base 08L70-KZY-910. ---------------- I'm almost 100 % positive about that. You see those mounting holes in your rear rack? If they won't accept Honda's OEM top box, what are they for? They seem identical to SH ...

Re: Honda OEM Rear Trunk Base, 2013 one-piece metal version

@former50cc Honda's own top box mounts your rear rack directly. No drilling holes or adding brackets. Honda OEM top box on an SH300: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/49224198/Honda/Honda_Scooter_Top_Box.JPG Do you think that the top box intended for the SH300 or the SH150 will mount directly to ...

Pardon my mistaken art.
This is sheer guesswork.
I was guessing Givi to Honda OEM Rear Trunk Base possible attachment points could be here, if appropriate holes are drilled into the Honda metal OEM Rear Trunk Base:

Thanks, I think it looks great, too. The measured dimensions I drew into the image on PCX Commuter's picture. It is 25 cm wide (9.84 inches) by 31 cm long (12.2 inches). I ordered mine when I purchased my scooter a few weeks ago, and supposedly I was given a 10% discount for part orders at scooter p...

Honda OEM Rear Trunk Base, 2013 one-piece metal version

I installed according to the helpful directions provided by PCX Commuter in http://www.hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=947 . I used a 13/16 inch drill bit for the holes. This is the closest I could get to the 20mm that Honda called for. It's the Honda Rear Trunk Base 08L70-KZY-910. It is rock s...

Re: Bringing her home on Saturday!

You made the perfect choice in personal independent transportation. I love my PCX. I fear my daughter who soon will be have her motorcycle endorsement here in the US will dominate the use of my scooter. I bought it for my whole family to use, but I just know my girl. She'll be riding it more than me...

Re: Brand new pcx 150 - 53 miles!!

Looks great, really nice. When I bought mine, I was really torn between the black and the red. I was leaning toward the black but since my daughter will also use my PCX, I thought she'd look better on the red. She looks good with red. My wife also said our little girl would be more easily seen with ...

Re: Big Brother to PCX

AND only costed me $1000 extra to match 250-300cc scoots. Doubt you could trade in your PCX and throw extra $1000 to get that performance from another scoot aaaand retain small Pcx frame,size,lightness and practicability. The size and weight is what I like about the PCX. It's right in the middle im...

Re: Big Brother to PCX

Certainly, I'm sure I would be proud to own and ride a Forza. I'm sure it's a great machine. Heavy, but great. Certainly capable of higher comfortable cruising speed than my PCX. But I ride in the city primarily, I rarely would need to go above 65 miles per hour for relative short stretches. I'm jus...

Re: Big Brother to PCX

At a msrp of $6099 with ABS, why not just move up a notch and get something with 17 inch tires, the CTX700N with a msrp of $6999? Because it has chain drive, no internal storage, no weather protection, a truly crap engine, dreadful riding position, no centre stand, looks like shit and the final nai...

Re: Big Brother to PCX

Pcsdemon, I think you're on to something. Personally, I think that within the Honda offering of automatic transmission bikes, the next real logical upsize that I could justify is the CTX700N DCT ABS, which is not even in the class of scooters. The PCX 150 really is in an excellent sweet spot of pric...

Re: Big Brother to PCX

The Forza looks good, but it is much heavier than the PCX, and costs too much for something with 14 inch wheels. I'm sure Honda will sell far more than 3 PCX's for every Forza. Don't get me wrong, I really like the looks of it, But - - - At a msrp of $6099 with ABS, why not just move up a notch and...

Re: Birmingham to Scotland and back again on our Honda PCX

I crossed the U.S. continent 3 times on a bicycle. Once in 1974 with a guy friend, then I got married in 1975 so my wife and I did the trip in 1976, and again in 1978. That trip in 1978 ended up in Alaska. We averaged 80 miles a day, living out of a tent. My rear end had temporary nerve damage that ...

Re: How long you been riding?

When I was a teenager my older brother let me ride his bikes that he felt he was outgrowing. That started with a Yamaha 60cc dual-purpose that I rode a whole bunch on dirt trails as the suburbs were being developed where we grew up. Not too many highway miles - just to and from the trails.
