My PCX!%) AKA Cottontail

Post by flyingzonker »

Attached--I hope--is a photo of my 2013 PCX150 with new topbox. I removed the tail faring and replaced it with a slightly damaged used faring purchased on Ebay for--shipping included 16.50$. I knew that in a while I would be trading this scooter in and wanted to send it back to the dealership exactly--to the extent this is possible--the way it came out. Anyway, I have to say that the way it looks now with the used faring--only white was available--is growing on me by the minute.

Some may not like it, but IMO it isn't gaudy. Smart decision if you are sending back to the dealer anyway.

Yes, I am going to trade it in--but not too soon and not because I don't like it. It is a wonderful piece of machinery.

What a name, "flyingzonker!" I like it, AND....your newly grown tail 8) Great idea!
But, (always a but, right?) the tail box has to go. I can't See it that well and above all? There's no cottontail with a box on it's back! :lol:
