The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Thanks for the links and sympathy guys. Binje, I actually don't live too far from the mechanic that you mentioned. I can do most of the work myself, it's just getting parts that are cheap which is proving difficult. With shipping cost and potential import taxes the foreign sites aren't always as che...

You may be right about breaking for parts, but I currently don't have access to a garage so have nowhere to work on the bike. As for why people steal it, the police said they are constantly chasing kids on stolen scooters but never catch them. They can take the bike down small alleys etc where the p...

I have a service manual. Got one in the US shortly before it got nicked.

The steering lock was engaged. Am I correct in thinking they would have to have broken that in order to use the steering wheel?

First time in my life I got third party insurance less than a month before it was stolen. The cheapest quote I could get for third party fire and theft was £250 plus £650 excess, which was insanely high. If I'd made a claim I would have lost all my built up no claims bonus. Ultimately, making a clai...

So I posted I this forum a while back, but sadly my PCX 125 (2012) got stolen! I'd pretty much given up hope on it when out of the blue I got a call from the police around midnight last night. The bike had been ditched only 15 mins walk from my house. The police waited with it until I could walk ove...

What country are you in?

Mgalutia88, I have a 125. Please post back if you find out what's wrong with yours. I spoke to a dealer on the phone and he said the warranty is valid if the service was carried out by a competent mechanic i.e. I don't have to have stamps in my service book. If this is true and charging the battery ...

What do you mean by start stop? If you mean the idle stop switch, as mentioned I tried turning that off. Problem only went away temporarily.

Sorry for the wall of text. I wanted to provide as much detail as possible. So a couple of weeks ago I noticed that when I started the bike the exhaust made a different sound. More of a slow "dud...dud...dud" before getting faster and sounding normal. Then a few days after I noticed this i...

Maybe a little late, but if not there is a new ignition switch and lock set on ebay for £35 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-PCX-125-2010-2013-Ignition-Switch-Plus-Lock-Set-/131142934638?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts_13&hash=item1e88ba606e). Looking at your pictures it looks like they just pulled off t...

What was shattered? The spark plug or the wrench?

Thanks logepoge1. I was looking for mm and must have overlooked the inches on many of the sites. I'm thinking of buying this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DRAPER-13867-FLEXIBLE-SPARK-PLUG-WRENCH-FOR-10MM-THREAD-16MM-DRIVE-/360574041222 If anyone has any better suggestions I'd love to hear them. Than...

My spark plug is due for replacement and I want to buy a T-bar spark plug removal tool for the job. Can anyone tell me what size I need?

Thanks!
