The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Thanks Mel. Those Takegawa shocks are 265MM which is close to 2in shorter than stock. I was looking at these 285MM (about 1in shorter) @ $250.00 CAD. Kinda rich for me when the stockers only have 2500km on them. On the other hand I spent some time yesterday afternoon with the Guy (that's his name) a...

Just think about that for a moment.
What else could they be on?

Foot?

All good but 'Foot' is right up there.

Looks good. No mods?
This won't work on the PCX cause the speedo drive on the port side is in the way.

I'm hoping there is a 'breakaway' in this backrest.
The thought of a rear ender makes me 'cringe'.
Although, lots of things make me 'cringe' at my age.

I'd go for the 70MM one, their website says it will also protect your hands.
I'm thinking the weather conditions in Ukraine may not be much different than Canada.
Congratulations on your purchase and send pics.

OK. Let's see the 'Top Five'.

I ordered an ignition key, complete with 3 little magnets, for my PCX from Glascow on May 6th. On May 9th I got an email from Royal Mail that said I would receive pkg on or before June 9th. The tracking # I got from them never did work so I just waited. Contacted EBay on June 19th and they put me in...

Found these but don't know if the price is for 1 or 1 pr.

The 280MM ones are about an inch shorter than the stock shocks.
Thing is I can't find any.

I've been looking for a pr. of these.
Any advice or info?

I took out the whole hump and reinforced the bottom of the seat with some light aluminum flat bar and pop rivets. It's now going to the (pronounced Ghee) guy. He did a great job modding my old bike seat. Only a few blocks from me. This week?? http://www.guyanthony.ca/ This week? OK, it's gone to th...

Yes. Heart won over head. But never again. Also stay away from the early production models. Mine was #98. The oil pump shaft was slightly over size so they just hammered it in scoring the seals??? Minor leaks. Also I think they forgot to put oil in the forks. Really bad bump handling until it was f...

Hi Mel46, I don't think I have come across the Takegawa shocks for the SH300i yet. I did try to order the black brackets above from Japan but have been told they are not available. The forza 300 and SH300i both have 27mm wide Clevis joints at the bottom and i have found a bracket for the Forza in B...

Key blanks should be avail. on ebay. New key blank come with magnets. Set them on magnets of orig. key. They'll stick for you when correctly oriented. Now, without flipping them over, but them in exact same holes on new key. Put little cover over end of new key. Have locksmith or local hardware sto...

I just received my new windshield today (the tall one). The way I read the instructions I will stick the 'Poron' washers on the outside of the screen after it is fitted. Does this sound correct? I'm going to install it tomorrow but can't ride for a while due to recent surgery. I'm 5' 10in. and hopin...

You sound like an experienced rider. IMHO ABS is not worth the extra $$$$.

I still have "that" Re-called Honda rack on my scoot. (I do not own a top box). I like the looks of my metal rack. However, I would love to see a photo of Honda's Replacement, but I haven't seen a pic of it anywhere. Is it metal or have they gone plastic? Re-call notices keep coming. I fi...
