New Hondas
The "Integra" is the scooter at the beginning. Looks like a dual-automatic clutch system instead of a CVT. Shiny.

Re: New Hondas
Integra is also a chain drive...I owned a shaft drive/automatic Honda DN-01...Great Motorcycle, Very Comfy on Long Trips, but the 3.9 Gallon Gas Tank, and changing the Transmission Filter aggravated me to no end.....

The Integra Trans is based on this type automatic Trans, which is based on the Honda ATVs......!!!

THANKS....It handled Great, rode Great, looked Great....my dislikes.....
(1) 3.9 Gallon Gas Tank and 45 to 51 MPG kept You hunting Stations
(2) Oil Filter/Drain Plug easily accessable..."BUT"...it had a Transmission Filter that had to be changed at the same intervals that required removal of: Muffler, One Exhaust Pipe, Front Lower Bodywork, Right Lower Body Work, Right Floorboard, and then the Filter itself was closed up inside a 3 bolt cover that required buying a $3.59 O-Ring
(3) Passenger Seat was "AWFUL"...hence the Gel Pad in the picture
(4) Front Tire is a Special Size Bridgestone that has to be bought from Honda, and I only got 6000 miles out of them (put 3 on it while I owned it and only 1 rear the week before I traded it)
There Ya' go.....I'm an encyclopedia of "Road Tests" on a Lota' Bikes....!!!

Re: New Hondas
Wow, that DN-01 is a huge bike. With all the maintenance issues, poor gas mileage and lack of comfort, I can see how you'd sell it despite its looks.
How much did that thing weigh anyways? I bet it has at least 500lbs on our PCXes.

Re: New Hondas
I will look and see if I still have some CBR1000RR Pics of me "Draggin' a Knee" just for Pic purposes. Main reason for "knee draggin" is to keep from leanin' as far...I always found it kinda' ridiculous on the street anyway...takes too long to transition back if mid-corner there's a critter, car, etc. and You need to change directions.....I no longer have my Leathers-n-Pucks though, so I can't "stage" one for You.....EddieC wrote:Skuuter -

Re: New Hondas
Anyone scrape the center stand on their PCX yet? I've done it on a left turn a couple of times.

Re: New Hondas
Scared the shit out of me the first time I scraped the kick stand, now I'm just used to it.

Other than a few months on a Helix around my parent's neighborhood this is the only bike I've ever had. Surprised me quite a bit the first time it happened!

Re: New Hondas
Wow skuuter, you can see a spark in that picture from draggin it.
I've dragged both sides of the centerstand before, but nothing nearly as bad as I used to scrape a Honda Spree I used to drive. I rode that thing like I stole it, sparks flying on both sides.
