Drum rear brake is superior for a number of reasons.
1: friction material area much larger
2: friction material lasts much longer
3: far easier to maintain
4: nowhere near as badly affected by the effects of corrosion

All true
(Unfortunately)
Not marvelous for a motorbike. But for a less than 10hp economy scooter it's perfect for the job.
What do Honda know. Idiots to a man.

If I owned a pcx Id honestly consider dropping getting another and get an sh 125/150 instead. The motors are basically the same with the exception of the rear disk brakes & abs.
Seeing as I have both ie.
Honda vision 110,with a drum rear brake.
Honda sh 125i,with rear disc,whats best..?????????? Been riding some 39 1/2 years now since pasting test,both work good.Fine as they are.

Stiff price on these little scooters.
Saw a mint Forza offered for $2,500, NO added fees,
with just a few hundred miles on it. Private sale.
A PCX will be, what? $4100+ OTD?
