Re: Insurance and security features
Mine came with Datatag dots (apparently added to parts of the scoot), registered on their database, a green oblong datatag emblem stuck to the console. Not sure if this is always the case in the UK or dependant on dealer. It did not included a tracker or luxury security measure, but you can get high-end trackers for £40 from ebay with disabled/locate/etc features that txt a warning to you.

Corrosion, and generally in such a state that no one would nick it, works for me.Scottish wrote:Just filling out a quote for insurance and I cant remember what security features the PCX has..

Re: Insurance and security features
I feel sorry for you guys. There are so many supersports parked at my local college campus that the thought of my PCX getting stolen is laughable. That being said, I still stick a locking rain cover on it because I hate rust .DAB wrote:Corrosion, and generally in such a state that no one would nick it, works for me.Scottish wrote:Just filling out a quote for insurance and I cant remember what security features the PCX has..

Re: Insurance and security features
Does the PCX not have the HISS = Honda Ignition Security System ? The factory fitted immobiliser?
I got the Honda U-Lock and added it to the insurance quote.

Re: Insurance and security features
I thought it did, the keys programmed for the bike (ECU or whatever) but I'm not sure. Some months ago someone bought a new lock/key barrel to fit to their PCX and I wondered if the ECU would accept it. Apparently US Honda's do not use HISS but Australian/European ones do - seems to be you can by a cheap ECU and convert for a HISS bike by adding one 12v wire! (YT vid's are dangerous, show people how to steal/get working peoples bikes!)djcat wrote:Does the PCX not have the HISS = Honda Ignition Security System ? The factory fitted immobiliser?

Don't forget the steering lock and keyhole cover.
