Re: First coming off the pcx
The thing is it highlights for me no matter how cautious a rider you are even if you avoid the idiots you cannot predict things like this.When i went to work in the morning it was only raining but by the time i went home it was windy too.I had only just mentioned to someone that day i was taking the...

Re: Lost my hump for £30
You certainly wont regret losing the hump, i did the post about how i removed mine and havent looked back.Its nice being able to shift around the seat to get comfortable if you choose.

Re: Anyone added any supplementary lighting?
I have added led strips under the red reflective panels on my givi top box.If you miss me braking you have to be blind as it really lights up and better still at a higher height.I will try and post a video for you guys as its getting dark earlier now.

Re: Tyre life?
Mine is ok on the front but the rear was changed at the last 5k service.Funnily enough my honda dealer put a michelin city grip on as thats what they reckon is best.Nice to see this particular dealer sees what the market likes as opposed to putting another honda one on.

Re: Hello all! New PCX owner with couple of questions! :)
A cheap anchor can be made up without any drilling required.Get yourself a large container like an old chip fat bucket etc.Get 2 or 3 bags of postcrete and a ground anchor or loop or thick metal.Mix up the postcrete in the tub and insert whatever you have decided to use as the anchor point. Hey pres...

Re: What seat do you have?

Forget any fears ...

Re: Hello All! Stock grey pcx, now with one mod...
The led clock is easy enough to fit if you can identify a negative wire from a positive wire and only cost £10. The only thing i can complain about it is that it gains time but no big deal resetting it every now and then.If i was more into the the scooter thing i would probably have pulled the whole...

Re: New PCX Owner
Hi ash i was in exactly the same position as yourself last august.Just keep taking it easy as you are now,over time you will slowly build on your filtering skills etc but its best to be safe and slow than fast and dangerous. Really keep your eyes peeled for any metal in the road like drain covers et...

It looks like something a spaceman should be riding.Not my taste at all. I prefer the less is more subtle approach personally but each to their own.

Re: Does anyone have a Givi E37 or E34 top box ?
I have one and get my helmet,armoured jacket and trousers left on the scooter while im at work.The helmet and trousers go into the top box and jacket under the seat,no problem.I use mine every day for work and this is what i do, so its tried and tested if you are considering the e37.

Re: Automatic motorbike
Lots of motorcycles with CVTs -- what make was it? Gn2, I cringed when you mentioned the DN-01. I've ridden one before, it was terrible, and got terrible gas mileage. It was built like a brick shithouse though, damn thing was heavy and tough as nails for a bike. I reckon ive seen one of the new int...

Automatic motorbike
I recently saw one of these up london.It pulled up at the lights and the people either side of it were talking to the rider about it which is why i noticed it.As the lights changed it pulled off quickly without any fuss and extremely smoothly. As it had a scoot trying to keep up and a motorcycle the...
