The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Hello from Phuket Thailand. My 2015 Honda PCX video review.

It's a fun bike.

I was thinking about buying the Yamaha Tricity. This is a cool new bike.

The PCX is better.

I've been driving the PCX for a couple of weeks now. The LED headlights are a world of difference from my old bike Yamaha Nouvo Elegance. What an improvement in being able to see at night!

Another very great review of PCX 2014 model. I recommend to see his review of Honda Integra as well.

Cool video review of the 2015 PCX. Best one I've seen so far. Actually the only one I've seen so far. Lol. In English anyway. Also, the First time I heard it was "Matt" white and not glossy. Looking forward to seeing one of these babies in person.

We won't get to see the matte finish in the states though. That's okay by me, cuzz I like the Gloss Pearl White (with its Sunny golden hues)

Actually, I prefer the glossy too. Especially in white. Matt white just doesn't sound cool. Although I'd stil like to see one.

I'm not a hump hater, but that seat looks really nice. The addition of the 12V plug is a great touch (I'm adding one to mine), and also sad about the crappy North American colour selection, again. Great review!

I like the matt white but the matt black is very cool. I didn't want a black bike here in tropical Thailand. I bought a nylon mesh seat cover, highly recommended in the hot climates. They've gone down in price, best $10 I ever spent.

I stopped in a Motorsports dealership yesterday to ask if they know when the 2015 PCX's were arriving. Answer: I have a 2013 right over there. No, not the 2013, I replied. The 2015! Sometime in July, could be early, could be later, even into August. Okay could you write me down as being Very Interested? I'm in this store often so he jotted me down on his Big Desk calendar under July (so he won't miss seeing it, he said). Yeah, a....okay.
In the meantime he hands me his card with his 2013 pcx price. Ready?? $3,549.00
I laughed and handed it back to him saying, I won't pay this, but I bet somebody else will!"
I'm not even sure if that was OTD or not!
Anyway, he will call me when they arrive (I'll be back!)

Oh and they Finally had a Forza on the floor. The color was not as I had expected. The red looked brighter with some orange tones. Probably just me. Anyway, I asked him to roll it out. He did and boy the seat looked wide! I gave it a very quick on/off the saddle test. Gotta watch my back on the Wider seats. Ouch! It hurt spot on. Not good. No Forza for me. Want a Shame, I said to salesman, I'm disappointed
but Not surprised. I'm just shy of 5'5. I almost touched down fully with sneakers on, but the width was a killer.
Damn!!

I agree whitenoise. I sat on the Forza and I had the same issue plus when I put my legs up I didn't have any leg room. It was even worse for my husband when he sat on it his knees were almost touching the handle bars. He drives my scooter on occasion, so he has to be able to drive it as well. Where I am about 5'5", he's 6'3" I wanted to like the Forza but it just isn't the right fit for me either.

^ Yup, I hear ya
So what are your pickings now, have you found the next step up yet? Honda, Kymco, Suzuki, Yamaha or ?

It's between the Burgman 400 and the Silver wing. It depends on which one is available when I get the money for the new ones.

Im sat with cash waiting for a similar update to the S-Wing, dont want to replace PCX with PCX. S-Wing is looking so dated now i dont want to buy new...would be tempted by a PCX 150 if i could get one in the UK!

Tried sitting the Forza also. I had less discomfort when I was being waterboarded.
And; matte? Even Ducati doesn't look good in matte.
Wow, did I say that?
