Going to thailand

Post by TimTong »

Hello everyone, I'm going to thailand in May and I can't wait to look for accessories for my pcx 150. Any suggestions on what to get? I was thinking about getting a led headligh housing, but I was wondering will it fit and why doesnt thai pcx have turn light signal like here in us model and will that effect the new light housing that I'm planing to get. Thank u

what part of Thailand you going to ??

I'm in Pattaya...literally hundreds of scooter accessory shops from small back street to large showrooms...

What to get ?? - "up to you" as they say here.....

YSS shocks very popular, as are aftermarket seats....

Enjoy...

I would echo what @hatari said ...

I would question the headlight assembly being universal, so you might want to check on that to make sure before you put out the money for it.

I live in Bangkok and picked a real nice seat IMO at this place. Maddiedog has a seat from the same place as well and he loves it. They are priced between the equivalent of about $45-$60 US and should be able to just fit into a large suitcase or duffle bag. The shop can often make them custom in an hour or two. And in case anyone wants to know, I have absolutely nothing to do with this shop but to be a customer.

^ I second that seat recommendation. It's absolutely amazing.

You could look for the side panniers that are the "holy grail" of PCX accessories in my opinion. They can be had for less than half the cost over there, since shipping is so steep.

I haven't seen the side panniers for sale in Thailand. I think they are available it Malasia, Indonesia, or Singapore.
