Re: Exhaust change question for UK members
Maybe you can explain why tyre pressures are in anyway relevant to a question regarding changing an exhaust? It doesn't.... But in another topic you've warned people who were thinking about changing tires sizes that it's illegal and will result in a ticket, which I found absolutely hilarious. A pol...

Re: Battery nut
I might have misunderstood your issue, if it's the nut you're having issues with staying snug, some blue loctite is the answer.

Re: valve adjustment
It's a small Honda engine that is absolutely bulletproof. Generally the noises that people think they hear are just imagined, and yes a person of knowledge can listen to an engine and tell if the valves are out of spec enough that they need adjustment. I just turned 23,000 miles on my 2013 PCX150, h...

A dab of blue Loctite works wonders in these situations.

Re: Exhaust change question for UK members
I'd wait for GN2 to chime in, I have a feeling improper tire pressure results in a ticket in his neck of the woods so you never know.

Re: Anyone from the states hear of an exact release date?
In the US the automotive industry is a lot different from the motorcycle industry. Almost all models are released Jan-March of their model year, with a few exceptions of new models indtruduced mid year. IE 2015 PCX150 being released July 2014.

Re: Burgman 200
Thanks for that review. Been waiting to hear about the 200. How tall are you scisor, maybe that's the reason you're uncomfortable on it? I'm anxious to see/sit on one myself. Also anxious for the New 2015 PCX to arrive. Makes me wonder....how's the overall weight feel in comparison to the PCX? Is i...

Burgman 200
I took a Burgman 200 for a short ride yesterday and figured I'd share my thoughts. Acceleration definitely has a little more pep than the PCX 150. Nice gauge cluster, tach, mpg, etc. Felt very nimble yet stable at speed. Windshield did a fairly good job of keeping the wind off my face. I did not lik...

Re: Insurance.
There is no such thing as a "2014" PCX, it's either a 2013 or a 2015.

Re: Riding Tips
Why would someone who rides as to not use their brakes, ever need anti lock brakes??? Seems a waste of $.

"It is not necessary to ride something to know if it is practical road transport or a pile of shite."
Enough said.........
I'm of the mindset of don't knock it till you try it.

Re: Honda 2015 NM4
Yes I do work on commission and just to let you know, the ACV of any Honda product in relation to its MSRP is by far the smallest of every manufacturer, and my dealership carries, Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Polaris, and Can-Am. I know what you're getting at, you think I'm trying to sell/promote Honda's....
