Best place to get new panels (UK)?

Post by primalcarl »

Where can I buy new panels for the PCX? Is there anywhere apart from a dealer?

The USA: http://www.partzilla.com/parts/search/H ... parts.html

Or eBay, plenty second hand bits on there, I recently got a pair of forks for £70 inc p&p

How difficult are the front panels to replace?

They're not the easiest, the back end is far easier to take apart. You have to use some pry bars to get the under-windshield piece off.

It's on a bike I'm looking at buying. I haven't seen it yet but apparently the bike was pushed over. It has been checked out by the Honda dealer that sold it and they have quoted a max of £300 for two front panels (white). Located down in Devon

I have a new set of white panels but I only have them for the right side off the bike,
But i've got some old left hand ones that don't look too bad,
Sadly Devon is about 350 miles away from me :(
Got my panels from http://japan.webike.net/HONDA/PCX125/6188/m/ but when you add the cost of posting and customs I think it comes to about £280

Have a look on the link I posted earlier, you will be amazed how much can be saved buying from the USA even accounting for postage costs.
A front panel is just $21.50! :shock:
