The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Yeah I'll take it out on a cold dry day. Main problem is at the moment there is frost every morning and frost is already forming when I leave work. Plus I get little pleasure from rising home in the pitch dark freezing nights. I'm happier in the car and warm to be honest! I don't feel safe really on...

good bye pcx! I'm too cold riding my pcx and the salt is down and its getting frosty in Scotland. So I am putting the scoot away for winter. Back to the wagon and 25mpg

Motorcycle Theory Test (Taken at your local Theory Test DVLA Centre) - £35 (Retake after 3 working days) Module 1 (Off Road circuit) - £15.50 (Retake after 3 working days) Module 2 (On Road examination ride) - £75 (Retake after 10 working days) So without any training you can take all three for jus...

Yeah it's the same process - I got chatting to a guy when I did my test who was doing it on a 300cc automatic scooter as he didn't see the need to learn with gears, which was from his riding school (London). The Mod 1 and Mod 2 bits are the same - but all the slow stuff is way easier (and the pushi...

Cheers GN2. I am in Dundee so I will have a look around. I've only got a PCX at the moment but I would like to trade up. I assumed that most test centres didn't bother with holding powerful autos. In your opinion would it be worthwhile getting a lesson or 2 before doing the test?

Hi, Has anyone sat their bike test on an automatic? I want to avoid having to take CBT every 2 years, and to remove plates, reduce insurance and carry a passenger. Interested in any comments, opinions, experiences. Any info on cost would interest me too. I have zero interest in riding a clutched bik...

What does riding feet up mean?

Good grief,relax..no one is trying to sell it to you.

I'm relaxed mate, just putting my opinion in the discussion.

Looks awful. Grey, plasticky and not in keeping at all with the high quality finish of the bike. And costs a fortune. No thanks.

In Thailand (and maybe some other counties, Brazil?), it does have an alarm by default.

True, but the OP os UK so was coming from that angle. Why it doesn't have an alarm in the UK I will never understand.

i meant to add aswell, has anybody fitted a tracking device on there bike and how much did it cost approx? also how much did it save you on your insurance? (currently being qouted £400+) If it is your first bike, depending on where you live, that is what you will pay, roughly. i am 31, 5 years NCB ...

Thanks, I am very happy with them!

Hi, I was able to start riding my first bik 2 weeks ago - some people know I had an accident so could not ride for a while! Put on my Oxford Forst Time Panniers - an easy, half hour job. I think they look pretty good, and they only cost £38 delivered. My tall Givi is inbound, ready for my commuting,...

Thanks guys, ill give them a go.

Vagabondman, good post. If it works for him then that's great and it's certainly a creative solution.

It doesn't look good at all does it? Definitely gone for function there, it isn't really a good looking bike anymore, the back end looks terrible. It's beyond me why someone would wld peli cases onto a PCX.

Does anyone know if they fit ok on the pcx? Cheers.

Well that was silly

Yeah mental doing a sport, having a hobby, pushing ones body. Really silly.

Thanks for all the other supportive comments folks, most appreciated

Novemberdelta, I feel your pain and frustration. I bought my Pcx150 2 months ago and I have only ridden it once in a parking lot for about 20 minutes. I didn't have my license yet so I couldn't ride it. I decided to take the MSF course and on the last day of the course I broke my foot. I'm going on...
