Ahh! You're talking about the black piece just below the windshield.

That's quite striking and sporty 8)

Nice Glen. I like the fact that you try/do different things. :P I've often thought about two-toning my scoot...some black and some white panels (being they're on the cheap side) but some are a struggle to remove. Then I say, "Why? The White is beautiful!"

You're scoot has come along way and I like Every change you've made! If you have some other pics, I'd like to see the front (as if you were facing the lights) and a (non-angled) sideview shot.
One never knows what you'll try next! 8) Keeps life interesting and a hobby alive ;) I get it.

Oh shite yeah, that's a Great front end look!! And, I love the Givi (tall?) screen with it.
Givi always has the black at the base and it tied right into play with your swapped out white > black "V" panel.
Yep! I like it! And that slightly devlish look. Keeper!! 8)

Can I ask you questions here about this upgrade? Or is another forum page more appropriate?

In lieu of running them as drl. Can I wire them up to my lights so that they only come on with my regular lights?
I ask as I'm in Vietnam my neighborhood mechanic said I couldn't do this with a 2015pcx.

I was thinking of splicing into the headlight signal. Elsewhere in this forum I saw a wiring diagram showing the lighting circuits.

This is what I want to install. 3W led lights.

I could do like you and run them as drl. That would be easy.

The problem is here in Vietnam only the police or government bikes run with lights on during the day. Not wanting to draw attention to myself.

The simplest way is run them separately to the battery and a handlebar switch via Amazon y

That's going to take a lot of wiring.

hogwash, nothing on this bike is hard....Ive done it twice...if you want it easier, pick up a hot lead behind the windshield. the power receptacle is a good place.

Sorry, might be being bit obtuse for you.



The easiest way to do this run the wiring directly to the battery, probably through a handlebar switch bought from somewhere like Amazon, or somewhere similar.
