Has Honda ever identified the bearing defect in the PCX150?
I have a 2014 PCX150. When I rotate the rear wheel, the bearings are broken and loose. Has Honda ever identified this problem and issued a safety recall? One dealership told me that the bearings are loose floating around, but said that it wasn't dangerous. But I can't possibly imagine why it would n...

Re: How do I patch a punctured rear tire? Is it safe?
It's not going to look any different but if that engine is running good now it will sure have all the pep and vigor of a new drive train. We will change the plug of course per the SM's scheduled service. It's going to go something like this Vince... video is already up. https://www.youtube.com/play...

Re: How do I patch a punctured rear tire? Is it safe?
Vince isn't Con'Vinced yet :lol: He's thinking this is too good to be true. I don't blame him but if you are in proximity of Homie's garage and you have a PCX on the way to the salvage yard COME ON LETS TEAR INTO IT! Any one of your guys would do the same. Your generosity is extremely rare and tota...

Re: How do I patch a punctured rear tire? Is it safe?
Vince, You know that body panel damage you have, you could replace all of it changing the color entirely if you are of a mind to do so 8) Tempting. But I don't know how much money I should pour into it with the high mileage. I just want to keep it functional as long as possible for work purposes. L...

Re: How do I patch a punctured rear tire? Is it safe?
ALRIGHTY THEN!!!! Lets make a silk purse out of a sow's ear... WOOT! Bring to 'Homies Garage' ASAP I will get the brake pads and fluids on order & I think since you say the rear wheel has excessive side to side play, bearings for the final drive. We have a stock variator complete with a new clu...

I would love to have a go at your 3 spill high mileage 2013 :D We get those tires mounted, install a new variator, rollers and boss bearing, replace the entire clu...

Re: How do I patch a punctured rear tire? Is it safe?
Yes just scrap the bike. It's for the best. :roll: Not with new shiny tires, I won't. :D I'm going to have to replace the brakes very soon though. I'm not sure what the maximum mileage is for a PCX150. I'm almost at 20000 miles. Not sure what's safe. I spilled the bike three times now, but it still...

Re: How do I patch a punctured rear tire? Is it safe?
As GN2 has alluded to. There are two types of plug. The temporary get you home ones and the permanent ones. Both are entirely suitable for their intended uses, and it's your choice to use them or not. Neither will stop the sky falling. I have one of those plug kits but not had occasion to use it. T...

Re: How do I patch a punctured rear tire? Is it safe?
WOW! you have to stop taking that road :roll: Plugs are permanent, they only wear down to the surface of the tire and last the life of the tire. I have put them in my truck tires as well. Out of sight out of mind, it's no big thing on a car but maybe you find out where these nails are coming from a...

Re: How do I patch a punctured rear tire? Is it safe?
I plugged a sport bike tire once, road it until I could replace it. Takes a couple minutes and worked great! Hardly think it would blow out just for a plug and I put 100 miles on the plugged tire. Thanks. I will plug it until I replace the tire then. Do plugs wear down over time? Should I replace t...

How do I patch a punctured rear tire? Is it safe?
How do I patch a punctured tire? The rear tire on my 2013 Honda PCX150 has a nail in it. The local dealership doesn't repair flat tires, because the manufacturer says that it's dangerous. They only replace tires. However, Youtube tells me that I can buy a tire repair kit at Walmart for under $10. Is...
