Re: VOLTMETER for PCX !

I had a Toyota Carina E which I bought from my dad, it was in our family for roughly twelve years and all on the original battery. The car I have now is ten years old and I think it has the original battery. If you routinely swap out a battery at 7 years, you'll never know how long it would have las...

Re: Windy again

In Scotland many places saw gusts up to 90mph.
All train services were cancelled and bridges were closed to traffic.

I can understand the merits of that idea but I just couldn't bring myself to dispose of a working battery.

Not sure what "the shiz" means, but the bracket on the non-drive side is there to support more than just the exhaust pipe.

Re: Alleykat's PCX - Houston,TX

So does anyone ever ride that or does it just get used as an ornament?
I just don't get it, but each to their own I suppose.
If you can con fools out of that much cash to turn useful scooters into useless piles of crap you're a much cleverer man than me and good luck to you :)

Re: VOLTMETER for PCX !

The more aftermarket stuff you fit the higher the chances of having a problem later on.How long are you planning on keeping your PCX?
The battery should last a good few years, maybe ten.
Will you still be riding it in ten years or will you have moved on to something else?

Sorry, my poor attempt at humour has failed.
What do you need a voltmeter for?
I have been riding two wheelers for more than three decades and have never needed one.

The veggie oil is much more expensive than road fuel...... before the tax gets added.
Tax makes up more than half the cost of road fuel.

Diesels can have carbs though.
Back when I were a lad I built model planes which had diesel engines with carburettors.

The law exists because a democratically elected government enacted it.
Similar tax laws exist in most other countries.

Shortly after TopGear did a feature on running diesels on straight vegetable oil, the price of said vegetable oil in supermarkets shot through the roof.

Re: my winter transport

You could ship a Hilux from Europe or Canada.
It would be a p.i.t.a. but it is possible.
What about a Landcruiser, they're the business.
