My new scoot....

I've owned every type of 2 wheeler under the sun. Cruisers, sportbikes, dual sports etc. My favorite will always be supermotos. But this time, I decided to try something different...

Backstory: this started when I went to a demo day a couple years back. I was late getting there, so everything was signed out except for a couple of scooters. I didn't expect much, but came away extremely impressed with the capability, quality and fun of the PCX 150. I made me rethink how many CCs you REALLY need just to get around.

For 2015, the bodywork was updated, LED lighting, 12v accessory plug, etc. I test drove the updated one and was as impressed. So I picked one up for banging around town. It will do 110km/h with me on it. Fuel economy was an unbelievable 2L/100km (118 US MPG) for my first few trips. Been having lots of fun riding it around. Wife and I took it to dinner. So far we're having a good time with this bike! I think the biggest compliment I can give is it feels like much more bike than what it is. Quality is very high.

2015 Honda PCX150

Honda, meet Porsche!






Lots of storage




Dash is great! Notice speedo needle is on outside of ring rather than middle. Also, handlebars have some chrome which is a nice touch




LED lighting




Glove box with accessory power outlet
