Just picked it up yesterday and picked up the Top Box today.
Nothing special. So far the only thing that I have ordered is a handlebar clock.
When you have a 26 inch inseam (on the good leg) and a shortened left thigh bone from an 1968 automobile accident,
this is how you stand at a stop.
Another angle.
Put on 113 miles riding it home and a short ride today to pick up the top box. The dealership is about 10 miles form my home.
A really old and soiled First Gear mesh jacket. Note it is yellow because I believe in being visible to cagers (auto drivers). It was 80° F (26.5° C) today here in Northern California.

Re: Dinamasu's Red 2013 PCX
I also could only get my toes down at a stop, but when I was on gravel, dirt, steep uphill or downhill slopes, or any other kind of unstable road surface I had way too much trouble holding the bike up, especially if I had to move it or turn it around, so I got my original seat redone to lower the seat-to-ground height. Now I feel much more confident riding.

I sit the same on my BMW F650GS, dual sport and have learned to manage off road and slopes okay on it. But I have many years of riding experience under my 69 year old belt.Indyglow wrote:I also could only get my toes down at a stop, but when I was on gravel, dirt, steep uphill or downhill slopes, or any other kind of unstable road surface I had way too much trouble holding the bike up, especially if I had to move it or turn it around, so I got my original seat redone to lower the seat-to-ground height.

Plus I think the PCX150 is too pretty to ride off road.
Here is a nice gentle slope for you:
I wonder what top speed my PCX will hit in ascending this hill?
