Im 5'11", 34" inseam. With the hump, the seating is too cramped.
Mine is a 125, I would never take it on the freeway.
The other mods, why? Its a 150. Just my opinion, but unless you are one of those guys who likes to mod 50cc mopeds and stuff like that just to tinker, anything you put into a 150 is not going to be "worth" it.
Think of a Forza or other bigger bike if you are already questioning this potential purchase. Again, just a useless internet opinion.
I don't know what my mileage is, but its a lot. I ride it everyday and fill it once a month.
I wouldn't hesitate taking mine on dirt roads. The roads in my neighborhood are so chopped up, they might as well be.
It handles like its on rails. You will have fun smoking an R6 kiddie on a twisty road.
Starts and runs, and runs and runs. It's a fabulous bike if you keep your expectation realistic.

So that's a hundred miles a month? Three per day. $3 fuel well spent.
What is you opinion on shoes? Not as an alternative. Just your opinion.
If you're getting a '15 or newer keep in mind that there is a rev limiter and the bike will not do more than 65 mph. Unless you get a fuel programmer from yuminashi or something similar it will never go any faster. Mel has a '13 I believe that is why he is able to achieve such performance from only switching out his variator and rollers.
Hi, Just purchase a 2017 pcx 150. I'm 6'tall and 190#. I find the pcx ok for my height. Had a '06 Aprilia 250 scooter, but this pcx is better for my style of riding. Presently riding slow during break-in period.

Welcome! perfectly good choice the PCX, lots of fans here. Can we get a picture or two when you get a chance? The scooter, new ignition key, badges and decals, anything else that might have changed with the New 2017's over the 15/16 models. Maybe a walk around video? Thanks
