New PCX 150 Owner from Melbourne, Australia

Hi All,

Purchased my first scooter (PCX 150) at Christmas time and have been using it to commute 16km to work. Its been fantastic and is surprisingly zippy for a small scooter. Fuel economy has also been great averaging 260km between fills.

Only performed a few mods - they are listed below, all are now standard in the 2014 model whenever this arrives (later this year in Australia i believe).
- Hump less seat from powerbypcx which has made it much more comfortable for my 6ft 3" frame.
- Also bought a clock from clocksforbikes which is great quality
- Wired up a cigarette socket in the glove box to charge iphone in the glove box or when iphone mounted on handle bars being used as a gps.

Would like to thank all for the ideas and walk through's on this forum as the 3 mod ideas all came from here.

Also recommend the Nolan N43 Trilogy helmet which is a full face that converts to open face. It fits easily under the seat.

Great picture! Welcome to the forum! I like my humpless seat from powerbypcx - gives me room to change position a little during long rides. I also like that I can slide back a bit on it when I crouch down - allows me to still see my rear-view mirrors.

Sweet, thanks. I take it that the chin protector disconnects and is not like the type that flip up.

Sheeny, Nice hat! Also has an inside sun shield. Loaded with goodies, heh? N-com (communications) ready ;) Wonder how much it weighs. Also wonder if the jaw piece would breakaway should one go down....Or if it would hold fast? Just a thought :roll:
