Re: 2021 PCX 160/125 owner’s review thread

ezrider, the front IRC tire is model #SCT-106 , the rear is model # SCT-107. The only website I’ve found with any info on this tire is: Ircvietnam.com/product/pcx-2020 Thanks, ST. Looks like prior PCX;s have worn them, so they should be plenty known here and elsewhere. Your experience with them mat...

Re: 2021 PCX 160/125 owner’s review thread

@ezrider Yep iRC front and rear. Super bummed that we didn’t get the city grips because those are legit excellent tires. IRCs don’t last nearly as long. Thanks, mrags, do you have a model # or name for the IRCs? I suppose, like all others, IRC has a range of quality. I'd care more about ride/feel a...

Re: 2021 PCX’s arriving at U.S. Honda dealers!

On the SMAX, I did see a US vid a while ago where the guy does show 80 mph indicated, but also a low-70s # on his GPS unit. Still good; but, on the downside, there have been a couple of recent recalls on all SMAXs, and worse, Yamaha has announced it is dropping production of it along with several ot...

Re: 2021 PCX’s arriving at U.S. Honda dealers!

If I had my eye on the ADV150, I would def. wait to see if 2022 brings the new 4 valve head and 7 cc bump that the PCX got this year... Sad that Honda didn't drop the price a bit given the pulled features... Especially given that the delivery is so late... The 2022 ADV150 was announced a while ago,...

Re: 2021 PCX 160/125 owner’s review thread

...Some things I noticed: ...There is a bit of vibration at idle, but any 4 valve, 12:1 compression, Thumper will vibrate a bit. It disappears once underway. This thing feels Alive. ... Tires are IRC brand, not the Michelin’s in the ads. I’ve no prior experience with this brand but they seem to sti...

Re: 2021 PCX’s arriving at U.S. Honda dealers!

I liked it too, but I am still not an owner. I'm sleeping on it. The salesman was surprised it also didn't come with the hazard light control as expected, something I had not noticed. Still, this dealer has no other PCXs nor ADV150s coming; nor is Honda currently making any available to them to orde...

Welcome, 7mile. Yes, it would hurt any bike to do this; have you done this with any prior bike, as a long time rider? Jge64 has good advise: You need to move up, not down from your "barely adequate" Rebel -pretty simple. I'd guess your twin-cylinder small engine could handle extremes bette...

Re: 2021 PCX’s arriving at U.S. Honda dealers!

I'm in Mpls. There are 2 dealers with a PCX on the floor, Honda Town and Tousley Sports both have a non-abs copy on the floor. I am going to look at the one at Honda Town shortly, but I am just looking, as I have decided that I won't buy it without ABS (and I really want the E-key and the associate...

Re: 2021 PCX 160/125 owner’s review thread

Hi All, I just recently purchased a 2021 PCX 160 in Thailand. The owners manual is in Thai, which I don't read or speak, so I had a few questions. Regarding the keyless start, how exactly does that work, can anyone send me the section of the owners manual that covers the operation. I have been lock...

Great, ST, and congrats on the first US-based PCX owner's report I've seen anywhere! I drove an hour to my dealer and was bummed that I couldn't see the PCX -that they were too busy and would not uncrate it until the day I pick it up. Appreciate the helpful clarification on the PCX brake knob. Enjoy...

Re: 2021 PCX’s arriving at U.S. Honda dealers!

Jeeez, says the scooter greenhorn. How the heck can two new 2021 models, arriving the same week, be different on such a basic design factor?? Have you guys seen this before -the 1st week? This is also my first Honda vehicle of any kind. Which parking-brake design is better? I know I've seen the knob...

Re: 2021 PCX 160/125 owner’s review thread

Ezrider- As you’ve been a motorcycle-only owner till now, I’m wondering if you’ve had any chances to ride or test scooters? Or will this be your first experience riding a scooter? I know for me the experiences are different in many ways. Motorcycles require more attention to the actual operation of...

Re: 2021 PCX 160/125 owner’s review thread

Good move and nice comparison. I Like the Like, but, yes, Clevelandmoto and a suburban Chicago one are the only dealers I know. The new PCX seat looks most like the ADV150's to me, so those reports may be good guides. Seat height should prove better for you, but width of the seat and floorboards can...

Re: New 125 2021 model flat battery

Nice bike, and congratulations, Steve. I thought that Smart key system included an auto-shutoff feature to prevent these so-common motorcycle hassles. I suppose it requires certain settings; maybe the kill-switch nullifies some less-smart piece of this. Good luck adjusting to your new 125, as I'm su...
