Just jumping on board

Post by vamootsman »

Got my new to me PCX 150 a couple weeks ago, and man I waited way way too long buy a scoot. after 200 miles I put the tall Givi windscreen on (with about 1 3/4 inches trimmed off the top) and proceeded to put 150 miles on in the last 2 days. It's awesome. Cruises at 55 into the wind with a little left on the throttle. Best purchase I've ever made for myself. Gonna snoop around here to see what I can do to trick it out a little and carry some stuff, and maybe give it just a little more power, but still love it as is.

Welcome to the forums.

Where do you live. Accessories are quite inexpensive in SE Asia and there are a lot of them.

I live in Bettendorf, Iowa. I rarely see anyone on a scooter here. Mostly cars and some Motorcycles. Local shops don't sell any aftermarket parts so will be ordering and install any/all myself.

Ya, living out in Iowa, mail order is about the best you are likely going to be able to do.
