I got my red PCX150 this afternoon. I've put 97 miles on it and absolutely love it. I would suggest anyone who's on the fence about purchasing this scooter to DO IT! You'll find yourself exploring new areas that you just never bothered to in your car while enjoying every minute of it. I work at a dealership and it was done being prepped about 2pm today, my boss said immediately, "well I know you're not going to be good for anything the rest of the day, go ride your d*mn scooter!" and gave me the rest of the day off. Cool boss. I feel like a kid again.

Awesome! Glad to hear you're enjoying the ride.

I've been commuting in my truck lately, I've had to use it almost daily to move servers between buildings. I miss riding my scooter every day! :lol:

Filled up for the first time today when the final bar started flashing on the fuel gauge. I over-filled it just a bit as I had a little splash over, but it took 1.2 gallons and I had 111 miles on the odometer. This translates to 92.5mpg. I'm extremely happy with this because I'm a believer in not "babying" a new motor at all. I've been constantly going full-throttle to gently letting off, not letting it run at the same rpm for more than a few seconds. After a few hundred more miles and I'm just "taking it easy" I have a feeling I'll see a significant improvement on my mpg. Most of my 20 mile daily commute is running at 45-60mph with 9 stop lights and 3 stop signs.
