Hi from Belfast

Post by V4 TRV »

Hi guys - Just introducing myself.

I picked up a new PCX125 last month as an addition to my 2 wheel stable - I have a new Honda CrossTourer and a 9yr old BMWR1150GS.

I am loving my PCX and have added a few accessories to make the winter a bit more bearable - Toucano Urbano Muffs and Thermoscud,Oxford heated grips as well as Givi box and screen.

So far ive managed 114mpg so Im thrilled. I dont own a car so this will be my winter transport until the sun comes out again and the salt clears - so about 6months from now :lol:

Nice to meet you all and congrats on a really cool and informative forum.

Trev

More like 0.1% extra. Everyone knows the PCX has just over 2000BHP, does 0-60 in 1.2 seconds, and has a top speed of 322mph. Seriously. I've smoked like 15 Bugatti Veyrons on mine :roll:

Welcome from me on the sunny South Coast. Your accessories are exactly what I have in mind for mine. Scoooter-wear have their shop (The Cafe Racer) just along the seafront in Hove so I'll be raiding their stocks soon. My PCX is black with the identical screen and topbox to yours.
