The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

On holidays in the Alps-Maritimes right now. Saw this beauty at the lovely Saint-Paul du Vince. In the midst of the latest mid to large twist 'n go one-upmanship, thare she stood in all her glory.

You know it's a good one when the important stuff like the engine and drive line outlasts the cosmetics.

Plus who would want to steal it? Sometimes less is more. . ..

I wonder if the light still flips open after all those years.

Is that a numberpad under the bars

That is a "secret agent" scooter. If you know the code, and you enter it into the number pad correctly, it will turn into a PCX.

...or maybe that number pad is just instructions on how to start it.

Think its a safety label.
But a numberpad for accessing James Bond style secret gadgetry would be much more fun.

What! You could fall off reading it..

I dunno, but the whole mess of it looks like a cardboard box ta me eyes.
I roared at James Bond gadgetry. I just might be a believer

This had to be from that period when the Japanese were still reverse engineering everything.
Someone sent them a disassembled Westinghouse home dishwasher...with no instructions.

They added the tires and -- Bob's Your Uncle! -- Honda Powerappliances was born!

I seem to recall that Yamaha received a wringer washer. ...wich of course lead to their conveyance. ..think it was called the Morose (or should have been)

I wonder which button lays down the oil slick??

Looks like the dash came off my old Rover SD1.

That would be combination key press 8-8-3

You have to be careful with that combination. 8-8-4 shoots out gumballs... or is it silly string?? Hard to read the instructions. :-)

Ya'll are crackin' me up!

But Wait!
That Is a Number Pad!
I've looked closer, that's a dirty scoot used in an *ousted scene from E.T. (well, minus the basket)
You remember, "Phone Home?"


*chose a bicycle instead

I wouldn’t do that. It might turn into a Sportster.

Thus the need for the instruction book. Turn these secret agents loose without one and who knows what combination they might press!
This looks like a bike agent double not not 7 1/2 might use.

Ahh...Back to the Future!

It deserves a good restauration. But I would totally ride that to a work meeting

Yes! Just ride that bike through a car wash, and Presto!, a new PCX will come out the other side! Best restoration ever!
(the number pad shorted out, and it went to its default setting.)
