The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Welcome to the club, Stephen- I really hope you enjoy it! I am 10 months into ownership, and still can't wait to get on it every single time. Took a 120 mile trip today just for S&G; rained like hell at times, but kept warm and dry in the cab (OK, OK, in rain-gear :D). If you are tall and ever f...

HaHa! Love that bottom shot. It's great when there's a lot of joy getting to a place- even better when it doesn't stop once you arrive!

Thanks, gn2. I spit my drink all over my keyboard when I saw that.

Get the PCX, with the extend-a-mod.

tried 28x18x17G and got a huge torque increase but top speed was reduced by about 3 to 4 mph. I'm a speeder so I am looking into heavier replacements. but for those who want to hold on to your bars for dear life that is the size. 0 to 45 in roughly 3 seconds and its really smooth. you dont even rea...

Welcome, Duggle! I used to live on Mission Bay / O.B., then Pacific Shores when I attended Grossmont College and had a brief stint at UCSD. Have family back there- miss the ocean, and surfing at La Jolla. Enjoy the sun for ME!
Cheers-

... However, getting inside the battery box is tough, and finding a route for the cable requires removing several of the plastic body panels. So it may take me another week or two before my cable is connected. Actually, I cheated...I didn't remove any panels. Once the battery lid was off, I notched...

Snow and ice kept mine in the garage from late November until January 15th without being run. Garage temp varied from a low of -5F to high of about 33F. It started up on the first push, but I was still wary, and put it on a tender until the weather broke. Can you garage it? If yes, it should be OK, ...

That is too funny! A Facebook friend said the same thing. Went there again today. Fun ride down Jefferson.

Then I say, spread the gospel! <clink>

Hello All! 8) This will be my first scooter.... I've talked to some friends at work about it. I might catch some crap from people because It's not a motorcycle..... Luke I too get some crap from them, but it is all in fun. I found out that I have a nickname as of today... "The RED FLASH" ...

Welcome Cbus, Z-mac- I have had mine since last September; ride it every day the weather allows. Have taken many trips on it, and thus far, has been an absolute joy to ride. It has really grown on me; I don't miss any of my larger bikes at ALL. Hope you enjoy yours too. Eventually, we graduate to no...

As an electronics engineer, I too have to work on some very complex systems. I am having problems on this particular project...I think the Tear Collector may be bad.

Larry- Guess I haven't been keeping up as well as I should. First, love the hand-grips...where did you pick up those? Second, noticed the screen change, but you still kept your neat hand-shields. Why the change of screen, (if you don't mind my asking) and how's it working for you? Lastly, good looki...

That calculation turns out to be 73.275mpg US. This is the fourth independent post I have read that states that figure, but I have only recently hit those numbers. I don't ride 70-80mph though; mainly between 55mph and 65mph.

I cruise mine regularly between 70 - 80 mph no problems and its just awesome. that's with the 140/70/13 tire. However, there is a lot of bullshitters on this site for some reason that tell of " 70 to 75 mpg". this is of course garbage. unless your going 60 and under. the faster you go on ...

My mileage has been creeping up, but it is really ride dependent. On long rides, I now get 73mpg (US), to work it is averaging 65-69mpg.

I agree I wish that there were more scooter riders in the area. It sounds like other then the States, they are more popular. Here sometimes they are looked down upon by other motorcyclist. One guy on my husband's forum was dumbfounded that a someone on a scooter waved at him. My husband said to wav...

Thanks for the post, and welcome! Looking forward to the pics...
