Hello from Indiana

Post by Indyglow »

Hello everybody, bought my brand new red PCX 150 on Saturday, October 20, 2012. Givi windshield is ordered, hope to have it soon. Traded in a 2010 Honda Elite 110 because I wanted something faster. Before the Elite I had a 1986 Honda Aero 50.

I'm in Nappanee, Indiana. Amish country, so I have lots of practice swerving around horse and buggies.

Don't joke about poo, it's a serious hazard. I've taken a horse poo to the face when I was following someone too closely while trail riding on my KTM. Luckily horse poo is mainly grass, so it wasn't the most unpleasant experience (though I do not recommend it).

I ordered the Givi but company told me it was back ordered so I canceled the order. Then I ordered the Puig Smoke shield. I'll have it tomorrow.

Ok here's my new shield I ordered from Puig. I'm 6ft poor posture 245 lbs. No helmet buffeting. Perfect took just the right amout of air off my chest. Nice even at 40 degrees out.
