First post - help with service manual purchase 2013 PCX

[crawfcj]

Hi everyone,

I just purchased my new red 2013 PCX last week. This is my first scooter. I've always been interested, but spent most of my life on motorcycles. This forum has been quite helpful. I lurked here for a while and was convinced to get the scoot. I've had it a week and have not ridden any of my other bikes. It is really great fun.

I prefer working on my own motos rather than trusting someone I don't know. Since I will have 600 miles very soon, I need a service manual. When I look on the http://www.helminc.com site I'm a bit confused by the two choices:

2013 PCX150 Service Manual
Price: $39.95 In Stock
Pkg Qty: 1
(English, Paper, 61KZY00)

2013-2015 PCX150 Service Manual
Price: $42.95 In Stock
Pkg Qty: 1
(English, Paper, 61KZY01)

Which is the correct manual? Please help!

Thanks.

61KZY00 should be it, the newer 61KZY01 I believe has all what the former offers but also includes amendments for the new LED style PCX too. Your lucky as in europe we only have the old '12 manual and a slim seperate amendment.

For the few extra dollars, if others agree the new manual covers both comprehensively, it may be wise to go for the new one as it may serve you well if you trade up a few years on, or have better re-sale value.

There is a link somewhere where these manuals are only $30. I got both the 2013 PCX 150 and now Forza 300 for $30 each plus $6 shipping.

Hi crawfcj and welcome to PCXland!
Looks like you got bit! When you find your other bikes taking a back seat you gotta know "This Scoot Rocks!" If you want to check other options in getting a manual, you can look here: http://www.hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17

**Although, I think SECoda nailed the pricing right on "that" website

The link SECoda provided is where i got my service manual for our 2013 pcx 150 scooters. The one thing i noticed about it is that it was definitely a copy of an original, but it has everything i need so i'm happy. It has come in handy multiple times.

Thanks everyone! I just placed my order with the Service Shop repair manual and saved $10.00! Thank you all for responding, and thank you SECoda for the suggestion and the link. Even if it isn't quite the original quality, I doubt I can wear it out!

Both my 2013 PCX and 2014 Forza are good quality copies throughout. Pictures are very clear.
