Have you replaced both bearings in the torque driver pulley?

As an aside, Imperial miles are same as US miles. It's the gallon that's different between the two systems.

Winter petrol? Idk they change the fuel or petrol. Colder should be more dense so you should get more energy per volume then when its warm it even has sticker stating this somewhat in U.S. anyway. and oxygenated like when they are filling tanks when you fill up means less petrol nland more oxygen.

Interestingly enough, I am having this issue...at 4030 miles. Also, the rear wheel bearing has a bit if lateral play. I'm going to call the Honda dealer and see if it's covered under warranty, but it's a Sunday and the call will need to wait until tomorrow. If not, I'll be doing some bearing work.

Just took delivery of my PCX last night, rear wheel is noisy and the rear brake squeaks...sounds like a suspect bearing to me. The bike is almost 5 years old and has done 12K miles.

Best to call the dealer and see if they'll replace it under warranty?

Re: tyre pressure and fuel economy - I'm getting 130mpg actual at present and just checked my tyres and found the front was a few psi down but the rear was 10psi down! (last checked about 3-4 months ago). Handling has been fine though, but always good to check every now and then. It looked ok but not much change in looks with the extra 10psi. (gauge is accurate).

A 2014 bike may still be under warranty.

Does sound as if your final drive bearing may bearing may be on the way to bearing heaven.
