After one year on the PCX150

Post by Azjohn »

My evaluation of the PCX150 after one year is as follows. This little scoot is the most fun bike in my garage. I quit riding my 750 Magna, am selling my 2012 Interstate 1300. I just purchased a 2014 CTX 700 dct and it will be the only thing I ride other than my PCX. After a year on the PCX I can find no fault to report. it is smooth, always starts, handles great and is just plain fun to ride. Those of you who love your PCX know exactly what I mean. Thanks to the :P Forum folks for the handy hints and how to articles. They were very helpful. Ride safe. John. in Az.

Got our PCXs this spring and is the first scooter over 50 cc that I ever rode and have to say I concur with AzJohn. Very fun to ride!

Nice to read that the PCX means that much to you that you actually sold the others. WoW! And now you got yerself a 700CTX DCT, Saweet. It might be my next bike too. Time will tell. ( :? But, why does that NM4 intrigue me so?)

We've had our PCX's for a year as well, my 125 version and my wife's 150. We couldn't be happier and it has been my favorite of all of my former scoots as well.

Hit one year on mine last Friday (8/1). Only have 800 miles on it but only use around town.

Perfectly suited to my needs and fun to ride. Title to most fun to ride belongs in my case to an old R75/5, though.

Mine's one year old as well this month. Almost ready to break 3,000 miles, riding only on warm weekends!

Also eyeing that CTX700 myself... :D

I too have contemplated the NM4. I think it looks like it would be very comfortable to cruise on but I'm afraid I may fall asleep on one.

Geez, that is weird. I just purchased a CTX 700 as well. I have had the PCX and commute every day on it rain or shine. I have only had it two months and find it a spectacular bit of kit. Good to know I will feel the same after a year.

Bash On, you only have 800 miles on your PCX?? I bought mine in May of this year and my wife has one already, so we ride casually when both of us feel up to it. Mine now has close to 2,000 miles on it. You need to do some more riding. Once the scooter is broken in, at close to 2,000 miles it will be a dream to ride, and it will go when you say go, with no hesitation. At 800 miles it is still new and waiting for you to give it some fun times.

Yep, you're right, Mel. Rode it to work today, but that's only 7 miles round-trip. Heat index will be 104 degrees so I'm not inclined to go joy-riding after work. Looking forward to the 2k break-in after another year or so.
