Post your Mods & Rev Limited Top Speed Here!!!

Post by ScooterMan »

Because so much of this info gets buried...let's try to keep this simple. Remember to only list mods that may affect speed (gearing/variator changes, exhausts, windscreens, rider weight, cargo boxes, etc). Remember to list your current mileage too and list any pertinent details, like belt mileage.

I'll start:

2013 PCX150, 150lb rider, NCY Variator kit, 1100 miles on bike/belt, Sea Level in San Diego, Ca.

Top Speed (rev limited) 72.5mph can be acheived on a flat while drafting or in a tuck, or while sitting straight up going down a slight decline (1-2%)
2015 PCX 150 (White)[/color]
Top speed 76mph(2015) 79mph (2013)with NCY variator & Drive Face

I have a stock (no mods) Australian 2013 PCX150, with 500 km on the odo. I am 170 cm (5' 7"), 67 kg (148 lbs).

Top speed (throttle open) on flat, smooth motorway at 30 m a.s.l. was 109 kph (67.7 mph, as measured by GPS) in a normal sitting position. Note: The PCX speedo was over-reading at 118 kph (73.3 mph). If I'd crouched I may have gotten another few kph out of it.

So, I'd say that a full throttle speed of 110 kph is a reasonable estimate. Suits me for the majority of the riding I do (typically 60 to 90 kph zones). If I start doing more touring (probable, when I move interstate in a year or so), then I'll need to get a faster bike (i.e., one that is comfortable at sitting on 110 kph, not doing that at the rev limit).
White 2013 PCX150 -- lovin' it, but also thinking about a NC750D Integra upgrade in late 2014! We'll see...

86.25mph or 138km/h speedo shown,take off 9% over reading to get the real speed.
This speed was achieved with both Daytona and Takegawa vario using AdvancePro outer pulley, sliders,Kitaco gear up,Kitaco buble screen,Takegawa exhaust,170cc,31mm throttle,85kg,1.85m tall
Im cruising at 62mph (real speed) or 69mph speedo shown at only 8000rpm...With current screen no problem to see the speedo showing 120-125kmh but need a slight tuck to keep going further which Givi screen helps alot in that zone afterwards (no tucks)...

Wingz that's speedo, however I'm on a US market PCX150 and my speedo is dead on at 70mph according to at least three cars. Also dead on at 35mph according to radar. I have no gps to verify.

You don't. Webike.
The PCX comes from Hondas Tiawan factory. Everything seems to be in the Asian countries.

Was that on a 125 or a 150?? I want to put a Yuminashi variator and reenforced belt on our 150, hoping to top out at around 75 or 80 mph true. Think it will work?
