When you figure out, let me know. Ive got a ton of acronyms for you.
Crx, crv, crz, tsx, rl, tl, rdx, zdx, etc.

Once you realize theyre just acronyms made up by the company, you will rest easier..

Well Honda made the Pacific Coast motorcycle for a few years, a.k.a the PC800. My belief is this is just an extension to it. PC-X

No kidding, really. In Japan, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia it is widely believed that PCX stands for:

Personal Comfort Xaloon

...as in Saloon.

Don't take my word for it. Just google and you'll come up with pages (including Japanese Wikipedia) to confirm this.

Thai page:

Bahasa page:

I don't think it means pretty much anything, officially.

I did find that just before I left earlier today. It makes no sense why they came up with that, but I beleive it is true. Personal Comfort Xaloon. It was not easy finding it either..
