PCX newbie.

Post by horobags » Tue Apr 11, 2023 10:25 pm

Evening gang,
So after great thought about downsizing my main weekend bike, i looked at a new grey (only colour that I’m not keen on)super cub 125, that no Honda dealer has in stock, I’ve decided on a 2022 PCX with 100 miles on it in the same metallic red as the 90 12v.
It’s practicality won it over with smooth performance, weather protection, luggage capacity and running costs.
Not quite the looker of the supercub ,, but the days of me wanting to be a Steve Mqueen lookalike on a bike are long gone.
😂😂😜
Thanks Godspeed for the helpful advice. 👍

And how long it takes to deliver a curry ...

You can look like Steve McQueen on anything, Mark. Steve literally rode anything ;)

In many ways, being the delivery scoot of popular choice, the PCX is maybe the humble Cub's logical successor.

Enjoy it Mark, I like the PCX, but I went big and have a Silverwing 600 for longer distance deliveries.
The NC750 had to go, I'm not paying £111 road tax for an over 600cc motorcycle.

£111 is just crazy Dave, my car is £25 per year.

£31 over and above the Silverwing 600cc scooter makes little sense to me, it a shame most manufacturers don't make many <600cc bikes these days.
