The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Name origin: Ojibwe word misi-ziibi, meaning "Great River", or gichi-ziibi, meaning "Big River"

The word Mississippi itself comes from Messipi, the French rendering of the Anishinaabe (Ojibwe or Algonquin) name for the river, Misi-ziibi (Great River).

During a temporary stop while you stay on the bike (phone call, map reading, etc.) use the kill switch. It stops the engine - but leaves the lights and indicators on for safety. Note: This is my practice on my other bikes - my Thailand PCX has the idle stop, not a kill switch, so I just put the side...

Found some smaller fish eye mirrors on Amazon - 1 1/8" - http://www.hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4554

They fit closer into the outside corner, and leave more of the mirror clear.

Amazon also shows this note about the mirrors: NOTE : Because of the small dimensions of the mirror glass, this product must only be fitted for racing or show purposes. This happens to be a valid comment by Amazon because of the size requirements for mirrors in the USA. For example - in Pennsylvania...

Actually, I am looking for better "sideward vision". That is what you get with fish-eyes.

But enough about me Mike, what mirrors have you found?

Amazon has an assortment of these in different colors. Here are the black ones - http://www.amazon.com/Magazi-mirrors-motorcycle-chopper-scooter/dp/B00FMMD18O/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1444686376&sr=8-4&keywords=magazi+motorcycle+mirrors Amazon also shows this note about the mirrors: NOTE :...

Mike - this thread is about some small cheap stick-on mirrors, nothing more.

I know where the accessory shops are in Chiang Mai, and could not find any this small except on Amazon.

Hi Mike

Saw those at the dealer when I got the windshield, but didn't want to go chrome.

What I got was cheap enough thru Amazon, and I can always remove them if I change my mind.
