Re: Honda PCX Top Speeds (mph)
Can't see why you would bump it, best to just let it lie and forget about it.
Four decades on two wheels has taught me nothing, all advice given is guaranteed to be wrong

To increase the dataset!
I mean, it's pretty definitive that the top speed is 62, but more data = better R value statistically.

Re: Honda PCX Top Speeds (mph)
As noted from my video, 61mph with J Costa variator. Stock 57mph with some initial belt wear. Originally did 60mph stock. All per speedo. Dyno states that speedo is 1mph optimistic.
I have hit as high as 65mph using J Costa on the interstate with other cars around. I would like to get video of this eventually. With no other cars around, I only get 61mph as noted before.

Re: Honda PCX Top Speeds (mph)
OK guys, after much reading I have come to the conclusion that it may not be possible to increase the PCX 125 speed as there seems to be some kind of built in limitation. However, on my 2013 PCX I once topped 77MPH in the early stages (mileage). I now go about 69- 72 (will provide a video soon) with a itcy bitcy throttle left and depending on wind I am still averaging about 110- 115 mpg. Question is, at about 70mph it feels like the bike wants to do more but the rpm just keeps bouncing up and down (like vans with limiters), is it possible to remove that limitation and if so how? I travel 25 miles (About 40min) to and from work on relatively flat road, no hills. The scoot is all stock, NO mods. Any suggestions?????
To be sure of hitting your target, shoot first and whatever you hit call it the target!!!!!!
