A Question for Any New 2019 PCX 150 Owners

[Old Grinner]

For those out there with a new, redesigned, 2019 PCX 150, I was wondering if the seat is more comfortable or offers more room. There is supposed to be more leg room and although the motor is less cc (149cc?) it's supposed to be more efficient and have more power and fuel economy. I've heard top speed is 124 KPH or over 70 MPH?

Basically is it a more comfortable riding experience with more seating room and more seat cushioning? Is the improved rear suspension on rough roads better than all it's predecessors?

My 2019 PCX125 was only let down by seat comfort. Great if you just sit forward on the flat section but the ridge half way back digs in as you try and slide back to get a little more comfort. I guess that it's liveable if, like me, you're 5'8", but taller riders might want an after-market flat seat. The rear springs were quite good but still "crashy" over potholes. Overall, a very nice ride and a torquey engine.

Noted. . .thank you.

Sounds like the seat remains the same. . .OK for some. . .not so OK for others. . ..

Maybe on the next go 'round they'll get it. I submitted my two cents worth about the location of their horn buttons and lack of universal comfort on the seat situation last Summer. Honda's reply was basically that they passed my suggestions along the channels. Never heard anything back. . .not that I expected to.



And I'm not the only one who doesn't care for the out of the norm horn button location either. It trips up a lot of riders who look for it down below the turn signal switch. . .not above it. Another fine machine from Honda. . .the CBR300R review. It's frustrating. IMHO there should be some kind of international standardization for switch locations. . .but that's just me.



Have a nice day. . .Cheers!

Nah, there's 2 of us that feel that way.

I have done about 439 miles on my new honda pcx and I was hoping the seat would get more comfortable but it has not I hate the seat my old honda 2014 seat was a lot more comfortable.

But don't let this put you off my new honda pcx125 is a amazing bike to ride , so smooth and such a lovely bike to ride, I personally think it's so much better than my old pcx. The best way you can describe the ride is smooth.

I'm 6ft and own a '14 reg LED PCX and can't say I've found riding uncomfortable, not so say there are not loads of better seats but it's been fine for me riding from 40mins to just over an hour each way across town and A roads.

That would be a reasonable test.

I do about 2 hour trip to and from work and it does get a bit uncomfortable on the new honda pcx2019, but my old 14reg seat was very comfortable doing the same trip. I am 5ft'11

Tbh an hour on any motorcycle is uncomfortable. On a bike with pegs you could stand up a bit or drop your legs to improve the blood flow. The old shake your arms like a chicken can be useful too. If only to stop gripping the handlebars.

< pity they seem to have gone backwards with the seat rather than improve it - wonder if it's to do with great storage under the seat?

Nah just the obvious, they can't please all Our arses all the times. (Ah geez, I just had to say that!
Shoot, I can't even find proper fitting socks (as one example)
