I'me not a big fan of sticker overloads, but I do like your placement.

I realy like the screen, what brand is that? Is the carbon finnish stock to that screen?

Nice bike.

Ben.

Ben, the windscreen is from Magical Racing (bought thru the Webike site). They offer them in three finishes: gloss black FRP, plain CF & Gloss Twill CF. The front fender, seat cowl, and rear fender delete kit is from MR also. A little pricey (especially with shipping costs) but great quality & fit.
Stickers aren't for everyone. Our local traffic police ride white BMWs and I was hoping to look not so "cop-like" on a white PCX by adding the color, but people still slow down when they see me in the rearview mirror. I guess I need a big sticker printed in reverse for the windscreen that says "not police, stop driving slow".

The Rocket is still going strong @ 37k miles. No real maintenance issues to note. For my 4th set of tires I'm trying out the Pirelli Diablos. Great in the curves, looks like wear is acceptable, but I got 13k miles out of a set of City Grips and will probably go back to them for the next pair. Acceleration sometimes feels a little hesitant, so it may be time for a new injector.
Photo is from last weekend's ride up Mt. Lemmon w/ Penny on her Forza. This is about at 6000' elevation, where the desert scrub starts giving way to pine forest. We've had 6' of rain this summer so everything is as green as it gets.

AzR, yer always enjoying great rides, that's wonderful! Thanks for stopping in
City Grips will be my choice tire when/if the time comes. Good to hear they're holding up as others have said as well. Cheers, and ride on safely

White Noise, We're lucky to live in a pretty part of Arizona. Most people think Arizona is all empty desert & cactus (which we have plenty of) but Tucson sits in a valley surrounded by 4 mountain ranges, so we have lots of diversity.
Next month is the 27th Fall Classic scooter rally here in town which takes us 75 miles south to Parker Canyon Lake, for an overnight campout. I'm helping to organize it, so I took a ride down (with my friend Penny on her Forza) to scope out the roads. Here's two photos of our campsite.

I like the seat pad on Penny's Forza.

Today was the 27th Fall Classic scooter rally here in Tucson. My 4th time riding it.
It started with a kick-off party last night at the Hotel Congress downtown, with a local surf-rock band,The Furies, setting the tempo.
This morning about 30 of us (mix of vintage & modern scoots) made the 80 mile ride to Parker Canyon Lake, near the border with Mexico. Some are camping out for the night, some of us rode back home for hot showers in the morning. Two PCX's and one Forza made the scene without breaking down. I can't say the same for the vintage bikes!

After just over 4 years of riding the PCX turned over 40k miles this week. What a great bike Honda put together!

[WhiteNoise]

BAM!! That's Riding, Az!!
And a fine pair you make! Many more s-miles ahead to ya!!

It's been a few years since I posted. Still have the 2011 PCX, going strong @ 51,000+ miles. When it hit 50k I decided it was time for a little more power. I rode a friends Forza and was sold! I've put 35,000+ miles on my 2015.

In August, we rode our Hondas to Grand Junction for a scooter rally. Some incredible scenery, some great roads!
