The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

I recently hit 10,000... when I had my bike inspected the guy couldn't believe I had that many miles. Are there a lot of you with that many on a PCX150? Who's got the most out there?

Fantastic! Here's to 10,000 more!

I think my wife's bike hit that last year. It has 13,000 now, but it is sitting in the basement awaiting repairs after the crash.

Don't have the most out there, but I am up to 21,653km

10,000 miles is not that much - but it also depends on the year and how long you've had it
I commute 9 and a bit miles each way to work and that is not far by any standard, but it's still roughly 4500 miles/yr so someone doing a 20 mile commute to work would get close to 10,000 in just 1 year.

I bought mine new in August 2014

Congrats! It would take me forever to get to 10K. She's barley broken in!

Wait about rain and snow? Here in New England we can ride 9 months a year, and not when raining!

That's normal to us.

I've put 2,000km on my Vino 125 so far in the almost 8 weeks I've had it on the road. I'll keep on riding until there's snow but assuming a 9 month riding season, that's about 10,000km a year.

I think the average casual rider puts 2,000km a year on their bike. If I were on the market for a used bike, I wouldn't consider anything with less than 1,000km a year on it.

I just rolled 5,500 miles in the six months I have owned by PCX150. Being in the Western desert, I get to ride all year long. Coolest it will get will be the upper 20s when I commuting to work. (That said, I did ride this summer in 112 degree heat!)

60m a day commute. Had mine since march this year (new) and now almost on 9000m. How it'll stand up to daily use/abuse who knows? I'll continue to service myself. It's cheap enough innit? How easy is it to change the belt? Do I have to change rollers too?

I sold my 1150gs with 132000m on it. Most of those were mine. One reason I downsized was that although I got a reasonable mpg, it was costing me as much, if not more than using the car.

I don't miss the bike really but i love the simplicity of riding a scoot, and it copes pretty well. Mine's a 125 by the way.

Just my 2penneth

Once the purchase price and insurance/fuel is covered, then anything else is a bonus compared to other forms of transport. The gear will last for future use.
If it costs more than the above, even in a year to use other transport, the the PCX can be written off (purchase wise) without any worries - easy of use, filtering (in countries that allow it), convenience, fun - added benefits.
If it breaks down after costs compared to public transport, car, whatever, then even a new one or trade-in is better value than other forms of transport. Not so if you also have a car and paying for it to sit on a road/drive, then it gets more complcated.

Mine has 34,000 on it and it runs great.
