Ah, hold on, what is this MESH stuff?

That's a great help, thanks.

What I have mainly learnt is that if I buy the right product then I can use it in the summer and winter, which will save me money.

http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/213488 This is the one I actually bought. The service was good. It is comfy but pretty heavy and it is giving me a bit of neck ache, which is probably expected until I get used to it. I pull out the cheek wings to get it on and off but it...

Yeah, that's it , I think, but in dark grey and with the bluetooth stuff (battery, mic, earphone, charger, etc) in it.

Cheers, will investigate them, maybe pick up a cheapish one on Ebay. So, protection for the elbow and shoulders is paramount, with some form of back proptection a sensible addition. What about trousers? My golf/ski trousers do not offer any protection in the case of a slide so do I need to look for ...

Hi The last thing on my shopping list is a jacket and trousers. I am currently using my waterproof golf trousers and a ski jacket :? I never see scooter riders in full leather sports bike gear so I assume it is de rigeur to ride lesser clothing, so obviously less safe but more fashionable. However, ...

I started off looking at cheap helmets, then i realised that a modular/flipup helmet was the most practical and then I got seduced by the bluetooth funtionality so I ended up buying a Lazer Paname Z-Line with Lazer Link. It does seem to make a lot of noise at 50+ but then I just turn the music up! :...

I have done about 45 miles since I picked up the new bike yesterday and only one bar has disappeared so far on the fuel gauge. Marvellous!

Picked up my new 2015 PCX in gleaming metallic red today. Bloody wicked! :D Congratulation on the latest generation of Honda's answer to the absolute ultimate satisfaction in human transportation. Cheers, I am enjoying it thoroughly and that's in the rain and flood like conditions of Southern Engla...

Had my first 'moment'.... :? I was avidly reading riding tips on YouTube the night before I got my scooter and one thing that stood out was AVOID draincovers in the wet. When I could see them I went to the side of them. However, I came to a roundabout (Americans may need to google it ;) ) and was tu...

Good advice JohnL! Welcome Very excited PCX first time rider & member..... PCXade!! Congratulations 8) I have to ask this right away....Have you given any thought to taking a Motorcycle safety course? Enjoy your scoot, Itsa Fun one! Oh, and bring on the pics! :D Yep, I am soon to book myself an...

Congratulations PCXade your real life has just begun, keep posting and take us all for the ride. Your right turn problem is easy to overcome, it's been posted a number of times on this forum. I was having the same problem doing figure eights to get my licence, and the instructor simply told me to l...

And get some gloves

Skint at present.. Saving up for a second helmet and have today been using some soft Nike running gloves but they do not keep out the cold and get soaked.

However, I have found ONE of my skiing gloves
Have got the missus to search for the other one!

Of course, you are absolutely right. They have balanced off power for economy and IMO they were right to do so. The PCX is aimed at the local commuter or urban/leisure user and the power and speed is more than enough. One could theoretically adjust it back the other way but I personally would never ...

Ah, the wait finally ended. I had been playing the collection handover in my head every night for over a week and imagining the drive back. Picked up my lovely new sparkling red PCX 125 from the Honda dealer who have been great. Of course, being England the rain was pissing down and the roads were a...

Sweet - just got mine to day. Love it already. Dealer said the 600 mile service should cost around 100 quid. The power and speed seems fine and the mileage is great so out of curiosity why would you want to change anything on the scooter, such as the exhaust? Also, would it affect the warranty and/o...

Picked up my new 2015 PCX in gleaming metallic red today.

Bloody wicked!

Picked my new PCX up today and they are indeed on all the frame components.
You also get some stickers which can be placed in a few places on the bike to tell potential thieves that you have this form of security - it all helps..

He should be signed up by a motorcycle TV show.....

9 days till I pick my red beauty up from Honda... its all I think about at the moment..
I have the locks, I have a new helmet (which came today.. bit tight), got insurance....

Is your red beauty easy to keep clean and look clean?

Bought a mammoth 12m chain with special lock, and also a yellow disc lock with a cable to the handlebars to help me remember that its there!
