Re: More Aggressive Tires

I've already been riding my ADV150 on dirt trails, its certainly does fine. Just wish I had a little more aggressive tires. Not fully knobby tires, but a more 50/50 tire vs the 80/20 tires it comes with. Just figured I would start a thread in case people find different tires and can share the info h...

More Aggressive Tires

Just wondering if anyone has found any more aggressive tires vs the stock "adventure" tires.... This scooter is the most dirt worthy bike I have, it would be nice to get some sort of street knobby tires on it but I can't find much in the small tire size. The non ABS in the rear seems like ...

Re: ADV150 Variator Tuning Results

I put the stock variator and drive face back in with 18g rollers. I was able to maintain about 64-65mph on the highway now drag limited on flat road. I hit the electronic cutout at 67mph down a slight hill. It does feel like I lost some of that low end power off the line, but still feels better than...

Re: ADV150 Variator Tuning Results

Ok, that sounds good, I really don't want to mess with the clutch section. I have a tach, I will get that installed this weekend. Also what I am going to do is swap back to the stock variator and drive face but leave the 18g sliders in there. I am assuming this will get me back to 68mph stock top sp...

Re: ADV150 Variator Tuning Results

You were correct. My stock top speed going down a slight hill was 68mph hitting the limiter. After the NCY variator change it become 65mph hitting the limiter still down hill. On flat road however I am drag limited to around 62, not tucking. I was trying to keep everything the same while testing the...

Re: ADV150 Variator Tuning Results

See if my logic makes sense here... With the current setup (NCY variator/driveface and 18g rollers) I can hit about 61-62 mph on flat highway (drag limited) If I put in the gear set that makes my gearing taller for more theoretical top end I would think that taller gears would require more power to ...

Re: ADV150 Variator Tuning Results

As shared on this thread: https://hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=11327&start=20 The gearing on the newer PCX and/or ADV, the gearing is different. I would recommend changing out your gears. Order a gear set from a 2014-2018 and you should be good. This is a newer model. 19.png 2019 and up...

ADV150 Variator Tuning Results

Hi Guys, I'm probably the only ADV150 in here so far, but I figure this info will be helpful for folks down the road. The PCX and ADV share many things, roller weights is not one of them. Stock ADV roller weights are 20 grams and there is a stiffer clutch spring. Having done roller weights on my oth...

Re: Switched power for GPS

I have a feeling it would be awfully lonely in an ADV 150 forum, lol... :) Not sure there would be that much traffic. Live and learn as you go. "That's Life" (Dean Kay and Kelly Gordon) --> pick your singer :D omniphil, You're finding differences after all. Enough for an added forum? It's ...

Re: Switched power for GPS

I was able to get some of the top plastics off, broke a few clips but nothing that shows. Those plastics are really tricky, there was always 1 or 2 screws that were hiding under another piece of plastic that had to come off first, definitely a jigsaw puzzle. The GPS power wire is now successfully ro...

Re: Switched power for GPS

Thanks for the solution to go in through the top under the windshield, I will give that a whirl. I am trying to get the power to run a GPS. I figure the ADV 150 is pretty much the same bike as the PCX 150 with some different plastics, so I'm not sure how much a new forum would be needed. I am enjoyi...

Switched power for GPS

Hello everyone, I want to run power to a switched 12v source. The fuse box near the battery seems like the most obvious, but am I going to have to remove a ton of plastic to get a wire from the handlebars to back there? Any other locations to get switched power from? The 12v socket in the glovebox s...
