The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Came across these online http://amzn.com/B00EAKQJSS, wanted to know if anyone has replaced theirs. Mine are totally fine as is, but I like the idea of replacing them with these red versions just for show.

If anyone has replaced theirs, is it a pretty easy process?

I've never replaced mine. I would like to adjust one of mine so I don't have to reach so far for it, but that's another topic.

I'm not sure I'd trust the finish on these to last very long. And it looks like you have a red PCX. Do you see something in the product description about these being a good/perfect match to the PCX red? I don't, and if it's not the same red, I'm not sure it will have the good look you're going for.

Assuming they fit correctly, replacing the brake levers is easy. You pull the boot out of the way, undo a single bolt/nut, remove the brake line for the CBS (not needed for the front brake though), take the lever out, then reinstall.

Make sure the kit you get is specific to the PCX. The CBS lever is relatively standard, but the front brake lever actuates the master cylinder directly instead of actuating a brake line. For reference, the right brake lever, or the front brake lever, is part number 53175-KWN-305 from Honda and the the left brake lever, or the CBS lever, is part number 53178-KWN-305 from Honda. If you look up those part numbers online, you'll see what I mean -- the former looks funky and has a little push tab, the latter is fairly standard looking.

Ahh, thanks Maddie... good to know. I figured it'd be like replacing bicycle levers beyond which is right and which is left. They are specifically for the PCX though, however I'm not sure I want to mess with the CBS, unless I ask the dealer to install them at my 2,000 mile service.

Kermit, I don't know if they're the same red as the PCX, but that's one of the nice benefits of being colorblind!

It's a 5 minute job. You need a 10 and an 8mm socket. I fitted some this morning. £19.99 and they are cock on. Do you want a picture?

You don't have to fiddle with the CBS! Sorry if I implied that. The levers are easy to replace, as long as you find ones that fit. The CBS one is actually the same as a bicycle lever basically. The other (front brake) is the one that's a bit weird. It's still an easy swap though.

That would be great! Of the levers though, not of any cocks.

dustin it really is a piece of piss to do, as already said, just make sure they are for the pcx. I got my shorter black ones from web bike japan, made by bikers and fitted perfectly.....good luck

I have seen those same levers at powerbypcx.com. They are a favorite for bike mods in Thailand from what I have seen on their website. I love them. Note that if you don't think the red will be the correct color for you, you can choose another color. Keep in mind that the OEM ones are silver, and one of the color options is silver. We have a red scooter so we will probably save up for a set of red levers.

DID SOMEONE SAY COCKS!?

Certainly not, that would tip Whitenoise over the edge...

Wait until you see the snakeskin seat (with gel pad) that's being done ATM.

Is that gay code?

Sure, thanks! Maybe they'll ship to the US. I'm perfectly happy with the stock levers, but these looked like a cool change.
