    I'm so glad I chose a 2018 Honda PCX150 as my first bike of any kind. It's just so simple and supple. I've always been a huge fan of the Elites, and this is a great successor.
    As a Honda Tech, I'm proud to work with and on such awesome vehicles.

    Beautiful red color and a fantastic scooter.
    I had a white Elite 80 with the front opening trunk and standard rack on the back. Also a 2015 PCX that got 115 mpg. The only thing lacking was a driver backrest. So now I have a 2018 Burgman 200 with a Utopia driver backrest and Shad Cargo topcase. Also had two Metropolitans. Scooters are super fun.

    I bought a 2013 PCX 150 a few months ago for a nice price. I have a big bike, and look like a bear on a tricycle on the PCX, but I have really liked it! I bought it thinking I'd play around a while and then flip it. Now I've been thinking about buying a hitch mounted carrier for it and keeping it a while. The PCX is just a lot of fun to ride around town, and has enough power to enjoy scenic state highways (not quite enough for the Interstate).

      nonsense you have a right to ride on the interstate, just keep your blocking positions in the lanes, it's fun, people give you much more clearance than they would on a regular bike too.
      There needs to be more 150 cc bikes on the interstates

    • @Ben-Hawy
      @Ben-Hawy 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can legally drive on the interstate, if the speed limit is 70 the slowest you should go in the left lane is 60 and this bike will do 63mph, you can go slower in the right lane, I take mine on SH 130 where the speed limit is 85 and I stay in the right lane doing 63

    I just bought a 2020 PCX. That year you had a choice of Red. Guess which color I chose from that list.
    Plus: It has a high performance 149cc engine that pulls to 69 mph, measured against a GPS.
    ABS hydraulic front disk brake.
    Tool kit is neatly stowed in the seat nose.
    Handling is sweet!
    Minus: The seat puts me too close to the foot boards, so it'll be a little crowded for longish trips. Without a butt stop, there's no easy way to lengthen the seating position.
    Digital instruments, grey on black. It's a little hard to see if the light is from the wrong direction.
    Mechanical drum rear brake. Who still does that these days?
    I mean, except for Honda and the Piaggio Liberty.
    The "tool kit" contains a cable for hanging your helmet from the helmet hook. That's it. No actual tools.
    Overall, I'm glad I found it. Scooters are in short supply this year, so I was lucky to find this at a decent price.
