Re: Speaker/phone mounts?

I use a Ram mount for my phone, and I'd probably look at bicycle speakers for portable music if I wasn't wearing a helmet. BTW, helmets are uncomfortable in my experience because they are the wrong shape for your head. Find a shop that knows how to fit a helmet - it really does make a difference. W...

Re: Speaker/phone mounts?

Rather than playing through a speaker and bothering other people at a stoplight or just in general losing most of the Fidelity, why don’t you mount speakers in your helmet and get a Sena system ,keep the volume low and you can still hear everything around you plus the music. Also you leave all of t...

Speaker/phone mounts?

Hi all! Just recently joined this forum and bought my first scooter - a 2018 Honda PCX 150 w/1850 miles (for $2000!) I've been doing a lot of research here and elsewhere and haven't really found a tried and true answer. Does anyone have a solid recommendation for a phone/speaker mount and wireless s...

Re: Suggestions on new shocks

The NYC front forks are cosmetically a lot bling-er, but using the same stone age damper rod technology as the stock. Generally on a scooter the rear has more weight distributed there, but raking care of the stock is quite important also. For your weight I'd suggest an aftermarket spring, and a pai...

Re: Suggestions on new shocks

I like my NCY's. Tbh, as shocks go, they're priced just about right. Getting them set up takes a little bit, but once done, they are good. I do not have the matching front forks as yet, but plan to get them once I have the extra cash. Thanks for that. Are front forks just as important as the rear s...

Suggestions on new shocks

2013 PCX 150. I'm 345lbs and I've heard that the stock shocks are nothing to write home about. I'm here to try and gather a few suggestions for new rear shocks. Mainly all I've heard are YSS and NCY. Is NCY worth the $? Should I replace front ones as well? This is my first scooter/bike so I'm learni...

PCX150 weight limit

Hi, I'm new to the forums and searching around I couldn't find a specific enough answer so I decided to post. I'm looking at getting a newer PCX150. Probably a 2013 or a 2016. I've read a lot about the weight limit on these things. I weight 346lbs and I'm 6"1. In the owners manual it says as fo...
