Best colour PCX?

Post by louthepoo »

I've finally got the money together, got the best deal i can get and decided i'm ordering a red PCX on tuesday, i initially liked the white, then the black and now really want the red one, probably because its only just come to the UK.

whats your favourite colour PCX?

I have one in black but having seen a red one at the dealer recently I think I may have bought one had I had the choice...not sure. I am not keen on PCXs in white but then I wouldn't have any vehicle in white (they show up all the dirt) or green (unlucky imho)

I would've gone for blue if it was available in the UK.

I believe it's the same blue as the Faze 250, VT750S and the Vision 110?

I think all the colors (white, black, grey and red) are very nice. Difficult to make a choice. I've changed my order from a white PCX125 to a red PCX150. Hope to get it this week!

i think i saw a blue Faze on the way home. it was difficult to get a good look as it was going the other direction. i do think it is a different color.

i also saw my first 150 today. it was red and the 150 red is definitely a bit of a brighter red than my 2011 model 125.

Depends a bit on your priorities. I was gonna order it in grey, but then the person picking up the colour (my girlfriend) made a sudden change and decided it had to be black. Agreement was I chose what bike, you pick the colour (thank God there wasn't any pink or similar, that would have created problems). Black is always the "dirtiest" colour. Whatever water from rain, dust, etc will be more visible in a black unit, so you'll have to wash her more often. I love the looks in black, although it looks even smaller than it actually is. Grey looks really nice once out there in the streets. Looks actually nicer than in photos.

This said, the red or darker red looks stunning. Would have been my first choice had it been available here.

The red is a bit dark but brighter than on the picture above.
