Hello everyone,
I just bought a Honda PCX 150 yesterday and am excited to pick it up tomorrow.
I selected the pearl white. :-)
I traded in a Suzuki GS500.
Does anyone have any tips for a new PCX owner?
I'm looking forward to commuting on it.

Welcome to the forum.
Good choice.
Tips? Just enjoy riding it. I was out on mine yesterday - only about 30 miles (it was cold.)
There's loads of info on here - spend some time reading the threads. Check out the 'accessories' bit too. I just bought a GIVI rear box for mine.

Thanks for the welcomes.
I picked up the scooter today and have enjoyed riding it. Just taking it easy for the 500 kilometer recommended break in.
Take a look at the pictures of it in the orchard by my place. :-)

Nice pics and a beautiful setting. Are you on the southern hemisphere? Also have a white 150 and longing for the spring...

Oh yeah! You guys are rockin' White! Welcome aboard!
Tips? There is hope if the seat bothers you. There are very nice replacements available.
If you have any questions, ask in the right forum and more times than not an answer will appear.
If you haven't taken a motorcycle/scooter rider course, I highly recommend it.
Ride safe, Safe ride......lotsa Fun rockin' Whites

Hi beos59,
Yes I do live the southern hemisphere. I live in Adelaide South Australia. :-)
Hi WhiteNoise,
I do find the seat a bit uncomfortable. What are some good options to replace it?

Hi ddienes,
Seats - Check the 'Accessories' Forum.
My seat replacement (non-hump) seat arrived yesterday - I'm fitting it this weekend hopefully.
It's a quality item.

Hi Fizzy Rascal,
Let me know how the seat feels. I think I am getting use to the seat that comes fitted.

I got use to the stock seat after awhile too. I just wish it had more of a pocket to sit in so sliding forward at stops would help. Not that bad really, I'm a quick stopper and that's probably the (my) problem
HowEver! I'm constantly tempted to but one of the many beauties out there. Just one look at a White and Black seat and they seem to scream out: "Need a Home, Buy Me"
I regress
